Enough of the nonsense
Dimkpa, son of Alikor, thanks for drawing my attention to Tony Okocha’s comment. I haven’t had time in a while to savour such needless thrash, not to talk of nursing thoughts of responding to the usual invectives thrown at us by halfwits who probably believe…
Reflections: Fall Of Lawan Farouk
It all began in the 7th Assembly when allegations of graft in the fuel subsidy regime first made the rounds. In the beginning, information filtering in was like a mere rumour. In time, it would gather momentum. Billions of dollars, the House later learnt through…
Twitter, Nigeria Face-off: No to this war!
A raging war is gradually unfolding. It is not the war against insurgency that most of us are used to. It is a disheartening confrontation between Nigeria and Twitter that is obviously assuming a global dimension; a confrontation between Nigeria, which represents a chip of…
We are not there yet
We’re not there yet. The shore is not in sight! We’ve been aboard the boat expected to take us to the land who knows how long, rowing the boat in the direction of hope. It hasn’t been easy for the seafarers,who reside by the banks;…

Making Enemies At A Time Of Need
I hadn’t thought until now that I would spare time, especially now that we have all been forced to enjoy a little holiday at home, on what most people are dubbing Wike’s latest fight with the Federal Government. Wike isn’t a man to encounter. He…
Did God order the first quarantine?
Noah isn’t part of this generation and so, has very little to do with our time. In our time, we are faced with the virus of all viruses, COVID 19. COVID 19 belongs to a class of viruses known as the Coronavirus, according to a…
