A Black British Pemier Is Hallucinatory Disorder November 30, 2008 | 11 Comments Barack Obama was lucky. His Luo father made the most profound decision of his life by rejecting Britain for America. By now, Obama would have been a mere London inner city duff solicitor on a nine to fiver with fading jackets, worn out shoes, hire purchase BMW and a mortgaged three-bed house as his earthly possession. He would have been a Fabian subscriber due to his left-leaning politics. 'Monopolistic Operation In The Cement Industry Is Bad For Nigeria' September 7, 2007 | 9 Comments The Ibeto Cement Company Limited has noted a series of misleading press reports and comments being orchestrated for the purpose of negating the very compelling reasons for which the Federal Government made the decision to reopen our cement bagging plant in Port-Harcourt and recreating adverse conditions that will frustrate the restoration of work on the plant. 7 Million Vehicles Operate On Nigerian Roads - FRSC November 16, 2007 | 5 Comments The Federal Road Safety Commission yesterday disclosed that Nigeria currently has not less than 7,000,000 registered vehicles operating on its roads. The Enugu State sector commander FRSC , Luka U. Ikpi, who made this known during the flagging off of the ember months public enlighten campaign at New Market, Enugu on Tuesday, said the road transport system accounted for over 75 per cent of mobility needs in Nigeria. MONDAY QUARTERBACKING - The Interesting Case Of MENDing Nigeria (by Mobolaji Aluko) July 7, 2009 | 3 Comments As a one-time avid chess-player and local champion myself, I must say that I enjoyed Olusola Osineye's essay titled "The End Game: MEND Versus Federal Republic Of Nigeria " (reproduced below), in which he used the imagery of chess to analyze the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger-Delta MEND's situation up to date, and how it might close out the end-game. The Tiv Of Central Nigeria-The Unassuming Nation. February 19, 2009 | 3 Comments That Yar’Adua has in a rare display of non-discrimination, recognised the strategic position of the Tiv Nation and set out to fish out competent hands from there to man some key positions in his government is quite commendable. But the appointments so far made are just a tip of an iceberg. Even if ten more of such critical positions are given to the Tiv nation, it will not suffice for the decades of neglect and discrimination suffered by the Tiv Nation. I urge Yar’Adua to shop... 2009 Budget - Between Economic Deficit And Budget Implementation December 7, 2008 | 2 Comments Expectations are high, yet the world economy is in financial crisis while Nigerian economy is having its sad share of it. Nigeria, a mono-economy, oil producing nation, has not only suffered a major blow from its daily proceeds from crude oil exports in recent times, its economy may witness major deficit in 2009, a hard time ahead for Nigerians, you may say.

December 18, 2009 | 1 Comments So far nobody has provided a sound argument to prove a violation of the constitution by President Yar’Adua or the FEC or the National Assembly. So instead of turning the heat on the President or his aides for the current uncertainty, I would prefer if this activist could lobby the National Assembly to fast-track the review of the Constitution while we continue to pray for the President’s recovery  All We Ever Ask For July 21, 2009 | 1 Comments I expend my energy in the hope that Nigerian leaders, political and military elites and power-holders will read some of these writings and hopefully examine their conscience, change their ways and re-commit themselves to improving and governing Nigeria the right, humane and considerate way to improve the living standards of their people.
