Nigerian E-Passport Costs And Nigerians Abroad: A Classic Rip-off?  
April 27, 2009 | 14 Comments
If you live in Nigeria, the cost of the e-Passport is 8,750 Naira. This, taking US$1.00 to be 175 Naira, and British £1.00 to be 250 Naira, translates to US$50.00 and British £35.00 respectively. Please note that there will always be fluctuations in the exchange rate every time.

If you are applying from outside Nigeria, the cost is US$110.00, translating to a whooping 19,250 Naira or British £75.00. It is outrageous.

January 25, 2009 | 8 Comments
And to protect the dignity of public intellection, Abati keeps a dignified silence on the land acquisition. That has turned out to be an expensive risk.

Why are we all gobsmacked by the paralysis of his silence? Why is he smothering the possibilities of live debate through snobbery?

Ibrahim Lamorde (new Acting EFCC Chairman) In His Own Words (2006) - With Section On "EFCC Operations"  
January 16, 2008 | 5 Comments
The initial difficulty that we encountered when we started was the fact that we were a new organization and people did not know us. People were only used to the existing law enforcement agencies and there were instances when people even resisted arrest saying they didn’t know what EFCC was all about. That created some initial problems. However, the Executive Chairman got the police authorities to write letters to all police formations throughout the country, informing them of the existence...

Reminiscences Of Nigeria  
June 13, 2009 | 3 Comments
Thank you Lord, but I cry for the current generation of Nigerian students. They are studying under very hard conditions. So it is disheartening to hear that Nigerians are now sending their children to Universities in Ghana to get a better education. I remember that our universities in Nigeria used to attract hundreds of foreign students.
