The beauty of a democratic society is its penchant for the rule of law. For this, our founding fathers craved when in hope of it, they fought for freedom from our colonial masters opting for self rule. The generation after them who were nursed and nurtured for leadership from the dividends of self rule through regional arrangements in a working… Read More

The vocal minority will always have their say, but the silent majority will have their way. Nevertheless, it is capricious to let the pesky minority govern and dominate the narrative. A solitary story by a negligible decimal could be held as the belief and view of the bulk. This is why the silent Igbo majority who are opposed to the… Read More

Many Nigerians (especially Biafrans) were dumbfounded when news filtered in online recently that the Supreme leader of the Biafran secessionist movement, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, had been apprehended in Kenya and bundled back to Nigeria to face trial on a numerous charges bordering on “terrorism, treasonable felony, unlawful possession of firearms and management of an… Read More

We have all heard about the rearrest of Nnamdi Kanu and the ‘attack’ on Sunday Igboho by the men of Nigerian security forces.  I do believe that Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu have the right to agitate (peacefully). But I do not think Igboho should be in possession of such guns; meanwhile, I also think he mayhave the right to protect himself (if the government won’t) since it is not the first time his house was… Read More

Comparing the Bandit’s from Kastina State, Niger State, and others with the Biafran Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, is enough blatant evidence that the Buhari government is one-sided and indeed a dictatorship government.  The Boko Haram and so-called Bandits have been Ravaging Nigeria and its citizen; rapping, Killing, and Kidnapping for 2 decades. It’s shocking to see the Buhari government so… Read More

The major rationale for creating a state is the protection of lives and properties. Once a state no longer serve this purpose, the social contract can be breached. Is Nigeria safe for you? If your answer is no then, anyone who bears arm with a claim of self defence is making a good point. If a state fails, don’t fail… Read More

On Thursday June 24, 2021 I stumbled on a viral video from Zamfara state. In the four minutes clip, a notorious bandits’ kingpin could be seen boastfully confessing in front of senior security officials of the atrocities he committed against the Nigerian state and its people. The man, popularly known as Dan-Karami is said to be one of the senior… Read More

After 61 years of a miserable journey searching for peace and unity, same has been deliberately destroyed by the Nigerian Government upon arriving at the point of realisation. The government has done this through its familiar weapons of hatred and nepotism. Nigeria is currently sitting on the keg of gunpowder. The war being propelled by Buhari’s regime will consume the… Read More

There have been three distinct reactions to the sudden re-arrest of the Leader of the Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdi Kanu by Interpol working in conjunction with Nigerian Intelligence outfits. Typically, there are his die-hard and closet supporters who have gotten over the initial shock of waking up to see pictures of the ‘Supreme Leader’ clad paradoxically in… Read More

This may not be the best of time for some Nigerian higher institutions. While many of them are still struggling to shore up their poor rating in global rankings to boost their academic reputations, negative reports of atrocities perpetrated by their students are denting their image locally.  Aware of the responsibility to teach character and academics, many of these institutions… Read More
