We just want to bring to your attention something much worse than the Lagos-Shagamu-Ore-Benin road or the Serengeti. You won’t believe it but the place I am talking about is nowhere else than Nigeria’s so-called capital city, Abuja...
A government that entertains directives, unsolicited advice from foreign governments and individuals creates the impression that it is weak and compromising. Nigerians do not go out of their way to meddle in the internal political affairs of other states...
Majority of Nigerians, at home and abroad, are agreed that our motherland is terribly 'sick'! Yes, she is suffering from what one could call 'statehood tumor', an ailing condition that is similar to the prostrate cancer that has killed many rich men and women. And to combat the malady and save her from imminent death she has been taken to the emergency ward of a teaching hospital...
With his endorsement by the Northern political elite to contest for the ticket of the party for the 2011 election, Atiku has bounced back from political wilderness and the coming months will be interesting in the politics of Nigeria...
Indeed the natives liked the name Nigeria, just as Dame Flora Shaw, bless her soul, rightly predicted. Even the current wife of the president shares the same title “Dame” with the deceased first lady of Nigeria.

If a government performance were to be measured by the performance of its head at a public forum consisting of citizens of the state and country at large, then Governor Raji Fashola would have been chastised for disgracing Lagos State at the interactive seminar titled: "Lagos: Confronting Change in a Global Megacity", which took place at the London School of Economics...
Two decade ago, it was unthinkable to millions of Nigerians that Mr. Goodluck Jonathan, a canoe-maker's son, would one day become their president.

Nigerians owe the country and our rulers the duty to tell them the truth. This is because truth is like a shining sun which will prevail over darkness. Honesty brings transparency which is a vital instrument in nation building...
I must confess that I stayed up all night yesterday, against all odds, gloating as the results of the Iowa Democratic Party caucus trickled in. as the night wore on, it was clear to me like many others, that hope has triumphed over the old paradigm...
What I am about to say here, I know, will annoy so many of our women. Some will like me but some will hate me. Nevertheless, I love our women and therefore, my only intention here is to inform and educate, period...
Nigeria apparently operates what may be termed a Constitutional Democracy, but to what extent we approximate to a Democracy is a question best answered by the rulers. Nor indeed can we say the so-called Democracy is governed by the Constitution. ..
It is becoming an acceptable norm that the Nigerian Police must routinely kill citizens. The Nigeria Police Force is a harbinger of sorrow, agony and untimely death...
One cannot be an African and not feel sorry for the Continent. And even for non Africans, the findings of empirical data, along with the reality on the ground, makes them wonder what the problems are, with Africans...
The immigration queue at the MMA is a carnival of the absurd. Everywhere you go in the world, the queue for nationals is shorter and quicker whilst the one for internationals tends to be longer and slower. In Nigeria it is the other way round. What on earth do those immigration officers want from Nigerians returning home?
