Brothers and sister, I know that the result of the 2019 presidential election was a cause for sorrow and worry for millions of Nigerians. While for others, it was a moment to exult and rejoice. The unfortunate implication of this is that the gulf between supporters and opponent of Buhari and the APC administration grew as large as the gap… Read More

In recent weeks the country has been rent with drums of war, ethnic suspicion and other jingoist sounds. From the Oduduwa people’s congress and Afenifere to the Ohaneze Ndigbo to the Arewa Consultative Forum to the Myetti Allah to the Christian Association of Nigeria to the Muslim Right Council; not a day will pass without a sociopolitical or religious group… Read More

The brutal killing of Mrs. Funke Olakunrin Pa Reuben Fasoranti’s daughter, by Fulani herdsmen terrorists, was yet another sad commentary on the unrestrained rampage of Fulani barbaric killers terrorizing Yoruba nation. Kehinde Fasoranti, son of Pa Fashoranti, said Olakunrin was shot and killed by Fulani herdsmen terrorists contrary to what Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu said about the killers of Olakunrin.… Read More

Reinforcing failure is trying to solve a problem with the same washed-out tools, methods and live-ware. A president is as good as his cabinet; this is the reason competence and character, and not political value, must take precedence over every other item in a detailing list. Just like in the 2015 appointments, when a pathos-inducing denouement settled in after six… Read More
