Barring any divine intervention, and never ruling out the unpredictability of the cosmic regime, the 2027 general elections in Nigeria will be held. The...
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...
Nigeria’s political system in general is largely driven by one or two or three motives of 5Ps – profit, politics, propaganda, privilege and power. Service to society is only a pretext for gaining a foothold...
For those who ever had doubts, Goodluck Jonathan is emerging as just another occupant of the office of president, one with little or no clue that his job is not a ticket to party all night and all day...
Much has been written about the domination of the country’s politics by the North but without concomitant attention paid to how this is facilitated by their perception as people who keep their words. Even outside politics...
He was perhaps best known for the ‘Udoji Award’ of the mid 1970s, when many public servants received huge salary increases and were also paid lump sums in arrears, following a lopsided implementation of the recommendations of the Public Service Review Commission...
Akunyili, despite the initial overwhelming torrent of cynicisms against her taking up the position of the Federal Government’s chief spokesperson, has rather remained undaunted in her stead to continue to toe the line of truth and integrity...

Corruption in Nigeria has become so widespread with its depleting effect on the economic development of the country that insistence on legalism in the war against it may at times be counterproductive...

In a society where people’s sense of history is not so warped; where heroes are recognized and adulated, where the generality of the populace is not led by the nose on fleeting celebrations, Obasanjo should be riding the high tide of appreciation for the sacrifices he has made for Nigeria...
In view of the penchant of most people in elective offices and sensitive positions in our public offices to amass wealth and the huge amounts of money usually involved in such official corruption and scam, caution should always be exercised in appointing heads of anti-graft agencies...
