The Yoruba people in the Southwest of Nigeria are deeply immersed in culture, history, ideology, and other guiding principles that define their existence. This...
The continuing legal battle involving former Kaduna State Governor, NasirAhmad El-Rufai, has become much larger than the fate of one politician. Ithas developed into...
It will be difficult for one book to contain the names of all the corrupt people in Nigeria, because that book could well be a multi- million page book…
Whenever I look up the meaning of the words anarchy, confusion, chaos and pandemonium in my dictionary, it is always illustrated with a map of Nigeria. Everybody is in charge there. Nobody is in charge there...
In this article, using a system analysis approach, I'll try to show or prove that the probability of a leader succeeding, at least as far as the Nigerian context is concerned, has a lot to do with his origin. Using econometrics, we will try to find a correlation between good leadership and the origin of a leader...
Obasanjo as a specimen never ceases to amuse me. This is a man that nominated a Vice President for two terms, I mean twice in the space of four years and then turns around in the eighth year to tell us he is the most corrupt politician in the history of Nigeria. No be animal talk be that?
The bitter truth, which would be too hard to shy away from, is that NEPA has worked so hard to distinguish itself as one of the most excruciating problems of the Nigerian nation, which has even terribly worsened since it took on the new name of PHCN...
Could there be something in government that turns all our leaders in Nigeria into monsters?Is there a controlling spirit or are they all just outright immature, not able to delay gratification?
Our country as it is today is threatened by a total breakdown of law and order. There is the ever increasing rate of armed robbery, the abduction of expatriates, corruption, bickerings among our leaders...
We from the Niger-Delta should carry this consciousness about and around us: that anytime Asari Dokubo is put in chains and locked up in a Black Maria, it is we who are also locked in a Black Maria and are in chains. I say this because there are a couple of persons in our midst who are mostly responsible for the travails of the Niger Delta...
The fact that Nigeria is not alone in this problem should give the administration the motivation to work with other nations having similar problems. There is a long standing history of terrorism in countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Israel etc., therefore, Nigeria can learn quite a lot from their intelligence units...
I do not know how it happened, but since he commenced work as the Nigeria's Chief Cop, I have never been able to shake off the stubborn feeling that Mr. Ehindero may indeedrepresent a healthy and edifying surprise in the Nigeria Police, if the regime that appointed him would allow him free hand to duly police the country...
It was a very important day in the history of Ndigbo in DC area with the formal inauguration of All Igbo Anglican Church in the Episcopal Diocese of Washington on Sunday September 16th, 2007...
Lagos is probably the only town in the world that has no official “Welcome to..” signage on its borders. What Lagos has is just a “This is Lagos” sign. The hidden message in this cold and unwelcoming signage is that ‘This is Lagos, what you see is what you get’...
Allocating 72% of the budget to recurrent expenditure seems to me very outrageous, and a move away from the government mantra of fiscal prudence. Though, as one analyst observes, it is not easy to cut recurrent expenditure in one fell swoop...
Culturally, Nigerian men are overbearing, controlling, and paternalistic. They relate to their fathers and mothers differently. They believe it is “a man’s world” and so they have the tendency to relegate women to subservient roles. I am stunned by the transformation Nigerian men, married to non-Nigerian women, have gone through in the United States...
