October 5 is set aside to celebrate teachers across the world. World Teachers’ Day is iconic. It cuts national and regional boundaries. Unfortunately, for...
Ask many a Nigerian what it would take to turn her country around, and you’re likely to get this answer: “Only God can solve the problems of this country.” The evidence so far is that God isn’t impressed. A people with the extraordinary natural resources and variety of human talent that Nigeria boasts has no reason to bother God for anything else...
Facial expression reveals that Dr. Goodluck Jonathan's regime is in the right direction. Despite balance of the ethno-presidency system, the Nigerian people have accepted gradual economic changes observed ever since he started heading the presidency...
This world is such a terrible place. Sometimes your friend’s laugh could mean your undoing; your father’s pity could mean your death, and so on. Envy abounds both in high and low places...
Unrepentantly, Ibadan indigenes still mourn with curious nostalgia the inner valour and natural rascality of Chief Lamidi Adedibu. But, the fire, this time, if it ever burns in Ibadan, will peel away Adedibu's violent legacy like a Gentile's foreskin in a Jewish sauna bath...
What is Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) up to? Why allow itself to be hijacked, and lately so? Is this to give Atiku Abubarkar some relevance after his atrocious and loutish outing and brutal defeat? Or, is it something beyond that?

How can you say they are not performing, when heavy duty trucks come in to cart away the broken tar to sand-fill some godfather plots in Lekki? You should see how commuters argue as they are stuck in early morning traffic on a road that has been four years under construction.
Folks, this homosexual issue is one we have to face squarely. Why are these people the way they are? Does it have a spiritual undertone? Homosexuality has been around for centuries, even in black Africa, before the coming of the whites...
Whatever perceived differences in the various female characters created by Achebe are a function of the prevailing realities in the different settings and periods that produced them, and Achebe’s ability to record those realties so accurately should not be construed to mean that he also “celebrates” them...
Many of us exist in various states of mental freedom. Whilst the fetters and chains have been physically removed and laws have long declared us free, many of us continue to struggle with our mental freedom for various reasons...
All is not well in Yenagoa. The major participants - Jonathan, Alaibe, and Sylva - all have daggers drawn, concealed by overflowing cloak. In all of this, Governor Timipre Sylva is the target...
Barely a toddler in the Nigerian politics in 2007, Princewill was nominated as the gubernatorial candidate of the then Action Congress, AC, for the governorship of Rivers State. This came in the midst of known contenders for that position...
Now that I have finally seen Agbani Darego’s controversial chest baring picture, I can see what it was that irked and riled many Nigerians. While globalization has caught up with us, there are still some areas that have remained rooted in tradition. One of those areas I guess is women decency...
One wonders why Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, Fredrick Fasehun, Gani Adams and Asari Dokubo were incarcerated while Obasanjo and his EFCC continue to watch Adedibu’s bold fingers writing Oyo State black...
