The Constitution is being tinkered with again by the so-called National Confab summoned by our current President who had again refused to let our nation have a Constitution we can truly call our own.

Obasanjo to prove his resolve must go against members of the retired club of generals...

Recently, the African National Congress celebrated its centenary with pomp and gaieties. Last year, the Communist Party of China also celebrated its centenary. The fine thread running through the political culture of the two parties is their adoption of Marxian dialectic...
Here was a President who had taken the easy way out of a combat experience in Vietnam now telling the world and the nation that John Kerry with all his service to the nation in the same war, is a cartoon character who is not fit to be a Commander-in-chief in times of War...
It is almost taken for granted these days that life is good for African Americans in the United States. This is assumed, even though life is still full of racial impediments and obstacles for a majority of African Americans...
The problem of our society goes back to the time when Mammon was enthroned king in our society. This has led to the total neglect of dignity and morals since money has become the only thing that defines a person's existence...
