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...
It is really ironic that a government that has the vision of making Nigeria one of the 20 biggest economies in the world by the year 2020 has adamantly refused to fuel the engine of rapid economic development - education.
Barack Obama and Dmitry Medvedev, the twosome who rule two of the formerly greatest nations on the face of this planet are two of a kind. Both are lawyers, both are in their early forties, and both have told the world that they are unwilling to re-open the old wounds that capitalism and communism unleashed on post World War II affairs...
Let us call a spade a spade and hit the nail on the head: Islam or Sharia is not the cause of this militancy in the north, or for that matter in the Niger delta or anywhere else it may happen in Nigeria; the fundamental causative agents are failure of political leadership and corruption and underlying issues of poverty, unemployment and education...
No government past and present has surpassed the administration of LKJ in the provision of the mass housing that has accommodated Nigerians from different parts of the country. However, the enduring legacy of the popular “Jakande Estates” has become a sorry state...

Somehow, in the wake of the high drama that followed last week's arrest of the AC gubernatorial candidate for Osun State in the April 2007 election, Engr. Rauf Aregbesola, I got thinking about how this country has sank to a huge Animal Farm...
For several years, Nigerian leaders could afford to just sit still and do nothing, because the auto-pilot directing the big, well-populated jet called Nigeria was yet to be totally out of order. But now, in this year of Umar Musa Yar’Adua, the auto-pilot has completely packed up...
There are no sensible explanations for the bombing and loss of lives that took place in and around the country home of Governor Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. None...
It is good news that President Obama is demanding and insisting that BP establish an escrow account for the clean up and compensation in the aftermath of the BP disaster...
It is a pity that the Labour Party is fighting it dirty and making politics look like a do or die affair. Politics is not dirty. Neither should it be as vicious...
What the strongest man on the face of the earth should do is to move beyond the rhetorical postulation of democracy as a sustainable form of government, and depart from an unimpressive argument that attempts to disconnect African poverty from Western exploration and exploitations...
To say that the country called Nigeria is a conundrum is a gross understatement. To both its people and foreigners, it is a country that is, in its extremity, baffling, frustrating, annoying and uncivilised...
"I am highly encouraged by the fact that the judiciary has taken the lead to protect Nigeria from further political insanity and confusion. The judiciary has distinguished itself as dependable and impartial..."
