Why worry about Africa instead of countries and continents being ravaged by coronavirus?

One thing is clear, some powerful people, groups and countries outside Africa are planning something for Africans in Africa and it appears as if coronavirus is the perfect opportunity they intend to use to actualize their evil plan. They are not happy that the continent has not witnessed the number of deaths they are expecting, hoping for and projecting. Thus far, we have been lucky and the numbers are low but for how long will the numbers remain...

EBONYI: The next Igbo development harbinger

For a long time Ndigbo have considered Abakiliki and that axis as the backwaters of our large pool of people.And we have so treated them as such that when they found themselves in the larger house of Ndigbo from Eastern Nigeria, East Central State, Anambra and the Enugu States, we simply considered them not part of the plot.As Ebonyi State, we have not considered them worth the glance or at most a full blooded Ndigbo.

Physically attacking people over disagreements a silly thing to do

Physically attacking anyone because you disagree with the person or his ideas is a very stupid thing to do.Physically attacking Nigerian politicians abroad even though selective was a very stupid thing to do.Threatening to kill the leader of Ohaneze on camera or off camera was a very stupid thing to do.Now, let us go to South Africa.Killing Nigerians and other foreigners because black South Africans blamed them for not getting jobs or for committing crimes was...

Cattle ranching will work if the owners are forced to embrace it

What would make a Nigerian to be praising and supporting a powerful wealthy politician who owns thousands of cows on social media while seeing the poor and disadvantaged herdsman trekking with cows that don't belong to him just to earn his daily bread as the problem forgetting the fact that the herdsman does not own the cows and that the herdsman cannot afford to pay for an AK 47.Ranching will even benefit the herdsman who will...
