It may take you a lifetime to build your integrity and a very small issue you may consider inconsequential to lose it.Gen Buhari's certificate on my mind.Anyone that still believes that he has it is either confused, insincere or a desperate liar.My facebook friend Jasper Azuatalam while responding to a question on Channels TV on phone this morning claimed that the Gen Buhari's secondary school principal's recommendation letter covered the issue of the certificate but it...
Once a Northerner is contesting a presidential election majority of the Northerners support and vote for the Northern candidate.Once a South Westerner is contesting a presidential election majority of the South Westerners support and vote for the South Western candidate.But even when a South Easterner is contesting a presidential election majority of the South Easterners support and vote for the non South Eastern candidate.So, we have a situation whereby the Hausas, Fulanis, Yorubas etc usually support...
I read Atiku Abubakar's book "My Life" last night. This is the first time in over 15 years I read a book from the first page to the last page without getting up from where I was sitting when I decided to read it.I guess it took less than 1 hr to finish and I recommend this book to every young man or woman out there to read.You will find many life lessons there and some...
Ministry of Education should tweak our education system a little bit and introduce logic or common sense as a subject of it's own right from primary school. It will help a great deal because many people argue, quarrel and fight just because they never trained their minds to understand things they read or hear based on logic or common sense.Look at the following paragraph which by the way is a statement of factPresident Jonathan has done...
4 years into GEJ's presidency Boko Haram attacks seem to have been increasing, more killings, more towns and villages being taken and renamed and it doesn't appear as if this is going to change anytime soon. Ordinarily, a powerful president of Nigeria would have dealt with Boko Haram decisively and all their supporters and financiers punished. But the reverse is the case. Now, do you honestly believe that Boko Haram activities and attacks will reduce or...
Yet, they are making money from the Chibok girls that were allegedly kidnapped under strange and unusual circumstances since the Borno state governor countered a FG directive for the school to be shut due to security concerns. And the US sent their soldiers to come and help rescue the Chibok girls where as 900,000 Americans were reported missing this year alone? Interestingly, even some people in the US attribute the disappearances to human sacrifice. And I...
If we get our acts right, US and Europe will envy Nigeria and Nigerians in those places will do all they can to return to Nigeria. Nigeria is currently a dumping ground for some countries who ordinarily cannot match our natural and human resources. However, if we continue getting our acts wrong and end up plunging this country into an avoidable civil war Nigeria will never recover and Nigeria will be worse than Somalia. A few...
There is no growing repression of free speech and attack on human rights defenders in Nigeria otherwise a whole lot of people that curse, insult and abuse the president all in the name of criticisms would not be free posting their insults from the comfort of their homes and offices.This government is very tolerant trust me. The same way people resort to insults and abuses when they disagree with others is exactly the same way some...
Since the Sahara news broke concerning $1.6m spent by NCAA for 2 BMW armored cars meant for the aviation minister as operational cars, not personal cars and certainly not gifts all sorts of categorical statements have been made with majority of the people taking positions (in my opinion) based on ethnicity rather than the cores issues like1. Did she buy the cars herself?2. Was due process followed?3. Was there over invoicing involved?4. Was the money budgeted...
