  • Buhari’s statement treasonable – Arewa Youths

    Buhari’s statement treasonable – Arewa Youths ABUJA —THE Arewa Youth Forum yesterday slammed the former Military Head of State and 2011 Presidential candidate of Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, General Muhammadu Buhari over  his prediction of a bloody revolution if 2015 election is rigged. The youths in a statement  described General Buhari’s outbursts as misguided, treasonable and uncalled for. According to the group, Nigerians must ensure that the prediction of General Buhari of imminent bloodletting does not see the light of the day as such will not only bring disunity, but has the tendency of producing numerous widows and orphans. In a statement signed by the…

  • Press Statement: The Untold Story of Divided SEC Management- SEC's Executive Commissioners lied

    Press Statement: The Untold Story of Divided SEC Management- SEC's Executive Commissioners lied Many Nigerians and other watchers of the ongoing capital market public hearing were shocked as Executive Commissioners at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), took turns to deny taking part in many important initiatives and actions taken by the Director General, Ms Arunma Oteh. Many of those who saw this on live TV were shocked by what appeared to be a sharp divide, apparent mutual distrust and animosity between Ms Oteh and other members of SEC’s executive management. SEC insider sources have revealed that this has been long in coming, and the reasons are not far-fetched. First of all, it…

    Loneliness killed Yekini •No, his family did - Neighbours •Seek probe of late footballer’s death The late Super Eagles striker, Rashidi Yekini, may have died as a result of depression arising from loneliness that characterized the latter part of his life. Mourning fans and sports commentators said the late football star had become too self-withdrawn and cut down on social contacts and interaction that worsened a depression that apparently killed him at a private hospital in Ibadan, Oyo State, early Friday. They regret that colleagues and the government for which the player sacrificed his life and talent did nothing to save and rehabilitate him from his ordeal. But Yekini’s neighbours on Oni and Sons Street,…

    Smoking hot is a good way of describing Amina Jibrin, the United Kingdom-based Nigerian model, of Borno State State origin. Tall, skinny and drop-dead gorgeous, Amina, a student of Film Television and Radio Studies at Staffordshire University in the United Kingdom, is poised to take the world of international modeling by storm.

    By Raheem 'MOSHOESHOE' Oluwafunminiyi: Azazi and the sinews of peace

    It is not all the time policy makers in Abuja speak the truth or stay true to the oath they take before occupying a political post, which ofcourse is total loyalty and patriotism to the nation. Infact, despite the intricacies bedevilling the country, most especially since the advent of the Jonathan administration, lies and deceit had taken center stage more than those of sincerity and truth. Two cases abound here when firstly, the current administration told shocked Nigerians about the existence of a cabal in the oil industry and for that reason, subsidies paid on fuel must as a matter…

    By Obinna Akukwe: Yar'Adua wake up! Nigeria is boiling (2)

    Yar’adua, Nigeria’s fourth democratically selected president. Yar’adua, Nigeria’s most unassuming president. Yar’adua, Nigeria’s most frail president. Yar’adua , Nigeria’s most educated president. Yar’adua , Nigeria’s only president with leftist ideology. The manner of your exit equals the manner of your entrance. Mysterious appearance and mysterious disappearance. State Governors Peter Odili, Donald Duke, Sam Egwu, Ahmed Makarfi, even Jerry Gana and Rochas Okorocha were all in the presidential race of 2007 and from nowhere you appeared through Obasanjoic abracadabra and became the ruling party flag bearer. All the presidential aspirants except Rochas and Jerry were commandeered to genuflect before His Royal…

    By Oyakhamoh Carl Abu'Bakar: Nigerian Looting Class and the Witch-Syndrome

    If there is a recurring decimal in the unfolding drama that has characterized the ugly Nigerian political space since the dawn of democracy since 1999, it’s the tendency by the ruling party to finger the opposition party or parties as the witch responsible for every reaction by a population governed by the worst of rulers in the history of the country. Earlier in the year, the Nigeria President made a blunder, the type that have characterized his style of statecraft since becoming the head of state after the death of Musa Yar’Adua in 2010. It will be recalled that having…

    I think I should start by saying this: Nothing makes me proud than seeing my country and its appointed representatives doing the right thing regarding our welfare. The recent false report by the Hungarian TV2 concerning Nigerian citizens is worth commenting on; and the appropriate response by our representatives is commendable. The Embassy of the Republic of Nigeria, Budapest had requested TV2 to correct the error that the Nigerian nationals were alleged to be culprits of a drug and rape case involving two female Hungarian minors. Gone were the days when no one seemed concerned about this kind of reports…

    The last image that any one wants to see is the oppositional political party members, and even the various political communities destroying themselves in Edo State. With about two months to the Governor’s election in Edo State, assuming we live in a healthy democracy the results of a series of debates between  Governor Adams Oshiomhole and retired General Charles Airhavbere, as once suggested by this psychologist would have being the current talk of the market women, office workers, students, and the media at this time. Actually, the psychology of the debates would slowly be transforming inside the minds of voters…

    While growing up as a kid, this writer was made to understand that for any organisation to have fallen like a pack of cards, it must have been as a result of two things: the first being as a result of the actions or inactions of women in such organisation, while the second is usually and most importantly attributed to disagreements over money. The latter is the major concern of this writer and when placed vis-a-vis the recent events happening at the Osun State University, Osogbo, (UNIOSUN) one would not be misplaced to agree with the above assertion.  However, this…

    When we get the opportunity to write about good news on Nigeria, it must be seized with all candors and celebrated. The reports from all over the Country is that finally, road blocks by police are dying down. Of course there are still illegal ones here and there but as a whole, it looks like this one man is about to make a difference that we must congratulate him on. It only takes one Nigerian to lead and play his or her part.  There is no reason to repeat the history of road blocks in Nigeria that became family allowance…

    By Francis Atuche: A capital market in coma

    Introduction The 2008 global financial crisis spared no nation. It impacted every country with ferocious intensity, spiraling into lukewarm confidence and untold economic misery for people across the globe. Yet, for each country, depending on the potency of its unique counter prescription, the aftermath differed vastly. Some countries, either out of misguided intent or for lack of will to look beyond the frails of sentiments, called upon themselves the full wrath of the crisis. Other countries waged war against it, reaching for every imaginable policy tool to confront the crisis. As expected, the latter countries averted the full fury of…
