Mr. President, though we acknowledge our frailties as mortals, we have never ceased to ask why you allowed yourself to be goaded into taking this job in the first place. We thought you should not have taken this highly demanding job as the number one citizen of this country knowing fully well that your health condition cannot withstand the rigours of the office...
The problem with religions inside Nigeria is that they are either too narrow and exclusionary or too vague and ambiguous. Some do not have boundaries and anything goes. Others are too restrictive and insist you belong and comply or face damnation...
It must be said that the complicity and guilt of the northern establishment finds comfort in the attitude of the Nigerian media and intelligentsia. The imperative of naming names and ascribing responsibility for these things to specific people and fragments of Nigerian society – where evidence abounds – has always given way to clever demission and political correctness...
When I penned A vote of no confidence in the NMMA a fortnight ago, I didn’t think anybody’s ox was going to be gored. I didn’t expect too that the owners of the supposedly gored oxen would react the way they did...
The year 2009 is about to come to a permanent close, never to be seen again. Human beings have been in this world since only God knows. Nigeria has been there floundering like a captain-less ship in the sea of the world for the past how many years...
Our country still suffers a lot of poverty in the midst of plenty and it seems to me that only something as radical as the total annihilation of corrupt people can save us...
Crimes and criminals demean us all, with their negative impacts and in their equally negative consequences or outcomes. Crimes and criminals are like religious extremism-militancy, they are like virtues and vices which are part of human frailties and foibles, warts and all and are universal...
Former Biafran leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, has reportedly vowed to return Peter Obi to the Government House, Awka, after the February 2010 polls...
Never mind Wole Soyinka’s dissing of his own generation as a wasted one. In the nature of things, your generation always just happens to be the last best generation before whatever value systems or institutions you are discussing collapsed irredeemably, hence the tendency to dismiss the generation after you...
The oneness and orderliness of the universe, amply demonstrated by the structural and functional unity of its component planets, stars and galaxies, render polytheism absolutely illogical and untenable. It is absolutely improbable that one god created the day while another created the night...
I have heard people in Nigeria say that the reason SA is doing better economically and in terms of infrastructure than most other African countries is the presence of the white population in the country...
For every animal, a trap exists to catch it however big or ferocious it might look. Hence we have lions and other wild animals "domesticated" and held captive in cages and zoos worldwide. However, there is no known trap that can capture the wind because it is invisible as much as it is invincible...
The sense of insecurity or rather phobia of our rulers is due to the little conscience left in them, that made them feel guilty because inside them is that little voice always telling them they are not doing what is good for their people; that they are not doing what God and Man prescribes to the powerful and privileged to do for the less powerful and privileged…
While we agree with the Federal government that terrorism of any kind is abhorrent and stands as an anti-thesis to a democracy, draconian laws reminiscent of the strong-arm military tactics of yesteryears simply will not fly...
Recently, Fugar Community stood still for Professor Emmanuel Omoh Eshiemokhai to hear the news he had to break. Prior to this, there was ongoing information that a University was proposed for Fugar...
