Could there be more to the similarities between the Jewish and Igbo traditions?

Take time to read the following piece straight from the bible and confirm whether you are aware that this same practice has been in existence in Igbo land long before the white man or Christianity came to Igbo land.This is strictly for how priests are meant to deal with unfaithful wives as directed by God through Moses.An extreme version appears to be the one pertaining to the death of a man whose wife is suspected to...

JAMB exams whether online or offline should not be a big deal!!!

Do not deny any politician or political party their achievements just because of politics please.APC just recorded a first in Nigeria and we must not fail to credit them with this strange achievement.Now, for the first time in Nigeria under this APC led FG we cannot conduct ordinary JAMB exam!!!The mock JAMB exam a few weeks ago was a disaster and the main JAMB exam was a fantastic disaster in some parts of the country.Why give...

Shouldn't EFCC be dealing with this Capital Oil vs NNPC issue instead of DSS?

If it is true that NNPC owes Capital Oil N16bn and Capital Oil sold N11bn worth of NNPC's fuel in it's storage facility why is Capital Oil being accused of stealing NNPC's N11bn worth of fuel?This is how government agencies frustrate and kill businesses in Nigeria.Were they expecting Capital Oil to allow them sell off whatever they have and then start chasing them up and down for their N16bn when they both deal on the same...

There is no job out there that is worth the life of any man

My life is far more important to me than this Mobil job.The statement above made some 15 years ago was what I told a colleague that was heading to the same offshore platform I was supposed to go to in order to relieve another colleague who needed to be in Germany as at that time when he told me that he was familiar with that particular platform and that there was no functional communication equipment there...

Shouldn't our military and paramilitary outfits boast of the best brains in Nigeria?

Our military and paramilitary outfits should have our best brains so that they can be ahead of the bad guys and trouble makers.Unfortunately the reverse is the case in Nigeria where states that boast of 2/200 as cut off marks in unity exams produce the highest number of intakes whereas states that boast of 139/200 only get to produce a fraction.And we still expect boko haram attacks, kidnapping, armed robberies etc to be dealt with decisively?Only...

May the Sultan and Emir not fail in their quest to help the Northern youths

The Sultan of Sokoto Sa'adu Abubakar and Emir of Kano Sanusi Lamido Sanusi could become the real heroes of the North if they are able to survive the attacks from the Northern elites and help liberate the Northern youths from the shackles of poverty, ignorance, religious bigotry and ignorance.If the energy these Northern youths have are channeled into productive ventures the North will be transformed in no time and if Nigeria remains one the country will...

What's the big deal in the wife of a former president having money in her account?

There is no big deal in the wife of a former deputy governor, governor, vice president, acting president and president having $5.9m in her account because she is bound to get or receive gifts and favors from people her husband may have helped that her husband would not bother with.When GEJ's daughter wedded how many car gifts did they report she got? 200?What's the total value of those cars?Those were for a daughter then you believe...

Men should learn how to cook and even make money from cooking sef

One good thing about a man knowing how to cook is that he will not be forced to settle for a badly prepared food or be made to say something is sweet when in reality it is not.I once ran a pepper soup joint in Lagos immediately after my NYSC and during that time some women especially married women begged me to teach them how to prepare cow tail pepper soup because I prepare it so...

Enough of this corruption excuse!

There is corruption everywhere including the so called developed nations yet their countries are not as dysfunctional as Nigeria.We need to stop using corruption as a one size fits all excuse for the way things are in Nigeria.How about blaming our political leaders and government officials for not being intelligent enough, knowledgeable enough, experienced enough, dedicated enough, honest enough in the discharge of their duties?We see unqualified and incompetent people being given responsibilities their brains can...
