In a country with over two hundred and fifty thousand paid policemen, thirty thousand custom agents, fifteen thousand immigration officers, eighty thousand military personnel, and nearly fifty thousand men and women in the law enforcement circles, a common criminal called Governor Alamieyeseigha just strolled in unannounced into the jubilating arms of a despicable and decadent society!
If I were President Obasanjo and I was determined to fight Corruption, my priority would be to use all the leverage I have to convince my Party the majority Party at both Federal and State levels to give me the 2/3 majority I would need in each State to have the immunity provision expunged from the constitution with immediate effect...

There is something about small and narrow-minded people that vexes me. East or West, North or South, they all have three things in common: haughtiness, roguery, and the propensity to subjugate the common man...
The failed attempt by Umaru Farouk Abdul Mutallab to bomb United Airlines flight 253 out of the air and the aftermath have managed to reminde those who pretend to be temporary citizens of Nigeria that they are in fact still Nigerians...
