The result of the just-concluded governorship election in Osun State still resonates across the country at deafening decibels. Everybody is celebrating the Accord Party’s...

ATIKUlating A National Irritant

Atiku’s unravelling has been a long time coming.  It’s turned out that his vaunted political mastery is completely overblown.  Similarly, his crayon-written PR is hugely exaggerated.  Turns out he’s no master of anything at all...

My Role As Enemy Of The State

Nigeria is in the throes of a grave and quickly worsening violence. The resources of the state ought to be husbanded to confront this burgeoning virulent threat. But instead of going after those who ambush innocents with bombs, guns and machetes, the SSS diverts itself with intimidating principled commentators on national affairs...

Before The Next Bombing

We are indeed in deep trouble. This is because we have a penchant for learning and perfecting all the negative trends that we come across. Be it armed robbery, fraud, corruption, ritual killing, Pentecostalism, religion, forgery, kidnapping, act of deception and lying...

Goodluck Jonathan: PDP’s candidate, not mine

Like most ardent Nigerian political observers, I also found myself glued to my television set on the 13th January, 2011 in order to catch the glimpse of the long awaited and much publicized presidential primaries of the PDP, held at the Eagle Square, Abuja. The exercise didn't fail to live up to its touted bidding...

Time to Vote for a New Nigeria

The game is up for all inept and dubious politicians . Now is the time for bad-belle, do-or-die  politicians to look for another job. It is time for all political opportunists, thugs, criminals  to go back to the farms...

PDP Presidential Primaries: Vote for Yar’Adua, against OBJ

For Goodluck not only to defeat Atiku in Adamawa – Atiku home state – but that with an overwhelming and almost unbelievable margin speaks volume of Atiku’s experience in misgovernance, unrefined politics and campaigns, and the further rot he would have launched on our dear nation...

Oyo State is not a battle ground

Enough is enough. Our elders cannot be enemies forever as we do not want them to pass this to their sons. It is much better to make way for the coming generation as one...

Asaba: The Sexual Predators' Paradise!

I hereby challenge the sexual predators in the Delta State capital to debunk the veracity of these abominable sexual escapades of theirs and I will not hesitate to publish more damaging details and their photographs in my possession...

Our Success Tomorrow, Our Imminent Action Today

Some of us have seen the mountaintop, but how many of our brothers and sisters have? Some have faintly glimpsed the future through dreams and euphoric indulgence, but this has remained a curse rather than a blessing...

A Nation In Distress

The smoldering smoke from the ill fated Dana Airline crash in Iju Ishaga, a suburb of Lagos, has gradually died down and with it, a nation tottering on the brinks of security maelstrom has gone back to its troubled sleep. Life, as in the greatly unsecured and un-assured form we have known it as Nigerians, has assumed its normal style...

Foreign Policy and Nigeria’s External Affairs Ministers

In theory and in practice Africa has always been the primary focus of Nigeria’s foreign policy thrust. History and the political realities of colonial and post-colonial Africa dictated much of this trend...

The Roar of A Lame Lion (2)

Corruption a la Nigeria is a reactive phenomenon.  It is a crime perpetuated out of the need to survive in the moment and reserve enough for the dicey future.  It flourishes because all the survival indices have been submerged in the cesspool of rapacious government fiefdom, and lofty but shoddily implemented policies...
