Photo: President Bola Tinubu By Lasisi Olagunju War commanders die cheap deaths; farmers are murdered on their farms, traders in their shops, landlords vanish on their lands, tenants in their rented rooms; students abducted from their studies.

When I read last Thursday that the United States had asked all its non-emergency staff to leave its embassy in Abuja, and had followed this by suspending visa issuance in the city, I asked the…

Tinubu Help – Our Brothers, Our Prodigal Sons Are Killing Our Generals, Troops

admin

President Bola Tinubu By Ikeddy Isiguzo President Bola Ahmed Tinubu regales in his absurdities, wears them like badges of honour, and dares others to understand his devoted departure from logic to inclinations for inexactitudes that mask insensibilities and insensitivities. The land is drenched in blood, fears, and at the zenith of deadening uncertainties that flow from a President, Commander-in-Chief, who from day one in office has been more interested in the importance of his office than “the security and welfare” of the people, unless they are about his immediate family…

admin

Photo: Dr Alex Otti, Abia State Governor By: Daniel Kanu In Nigeria’s often turbulent political landscape—where criticism can be loud and delivery sometimes muted—Alex Otti is crafting a different narrative in Abia State. His response to critics has not been long speeches or political theatrics, but a steady unveiling of tangible projects—particularly in infrastructure—that are visibly reshaping the state. When Otti recently told critics to “keep quiet,” it was less an outburst and more a declaration backed by evidence on the ground. Across Aba, Umuahia, Ohafia, Arochukwu, Igbere and the…
