When one looks at it, many of those benefiting, or hoping to benefit from Nigeria seem so very sure that no matter what, Nigeria is “indivisible and indissoluble”. However, those who understand the behaviour of victims of abuse, may see it all quite differently. What has happened in Nigeria can be explained by some simple illustrations.

The struggle and determination to maintain the right to vote and have fair access to the voting process remain a consistent struggle for many minorities in every part of the world. Unfortunately, since this remarkable year of 2021, here in the great United States, somewhat related struggles especially in the African-American community have entered a new phase to dismantle sophisticated,… Read More

Weep not for Heritage Bank. But cry your eyes out for the former Anambra Senator Andy Uba for the public affront and humiliation brought upon him by the ignorant staff of Heritage Bank who invaded his home to protest against non-payment of loans Uba took from Heritage Bank.  Nigerian banks are known for their notoriety.

And quite often their suspicions are right. Take former US President, Donald Trump, for… Read More

The northerners will tell you unity of Nigeria is not negotiable. They will tell you asking for restructure and self-determination amounts to treasonable felony. They will foolishly argue that agitators for restructuring and self-determination are calling for war. To the northern leeches and loafers, they contribute nothing, but take everything. They believe there’s nothing wrong with Nigeria or with the… Read More

Some of the major challenges bedevilling the electoral process in Nigeria, and thus abbreviating the integrity of democracy in the country include over the years: lack of access to polling units, the location of polling units in problematic parts, overcrowding, conflict, violence, the designation of places like shrines, mosques, churches and private residences as polling units which grant the owners… Read More
