We need a president...

Our president is incompetent. I think it's time for us to stop tolerating his mediocrity. He has a lot of enemies, true. So did OBJ. We need to ask ourselves why the number one citizen [who is supposed to be the most informed individual in the country] is clueless about everything. He doesn't know the exact number of girls that were abducted, or their whereabouts, or if $20bn was stolen from the federation account. #AmericaWillKnow he says, implying that the US knows more about Nigeria than the Nigerian president. This raises a serious question - does the president even care?
I'm not saying our president is a bad person. What i am saying is he seems unqualified. His apologetics have repeatedly used his "political enemies" as an excuse for his ham-fisted approach towards governance. Did he think he could be president without having enemies? Nigerian politics is tough and needs rugged decisiveness, there is no space for the conservative or subtle, it's a crush or be crushed world and the government seems to be the one receiving all the crushing. It is time for the president to step on toes for the sake of our unity and nationhood. It his time for him to protect the Nigeria he wants to rule till 2019. It is time for him to act, for once, like a president.

...just 'Du' it: Jang and the Era of Nepotism

I have absolutely no intent to spend the words of this post talking about the 'Du Covenant' as it, to me, bears no credence. I will also not talk about the videos on the internet, showing an alleged initiation of Gov. Jang and his wife, nor will I talk about his apparent imposition of GNS as the PDP flag-bearer in the state - these are tales for another day. What I want to talk about is the era of nepotism that is ever-proudly represented by Gov. Jang. When Jang contested in 2007, he appealed to our sense of morals. I remember vividly, though i was just about 15 then, how he so proudly flaunted his principle of integrity and contentment. He told the voters tales of how he had only one old house despite being governor in the military era that preceded our democracy. There was no doubt that this was an entirely selfless servant who represented service, morality and discipline. Or so we thought. The recent acts of nepotism carried out by the government is a testament of ...

Europe’s Migrant Crises and the Wolves in Sheep Clothing

The current leaders of Europe are the orchestrators of all its aching. For instance, Angela welcomed with wide arms, over 1million refuges from the Middle East. My very limited knowledge of world politics and countless evenings of perusing conspiracy theories have led me to conclude that this very controversial decision was led by one of two reasons – a vampiric lust for cheap labour which is innate in all capitalists or a grandiose sense of humanity powered by the desire to portray Germany as a leader in all and every respect. Well, I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me that she, alongside other European leaders who followed her lead are in shad’in (euphemism for “ deep shit ”). We're so unfortunate to have lived through the terror of the Paris attacks, the Brusells attacks (twice) and the uncertainty and tension that have now covered Europe like a cloud. I understand that one may wonder if there is in fact any evidence which proves these attacks were made possible by the...

Tribute to YS Dimka (Missing You by N.I. & Eyesreal)

Principals come and go, but only a handful of principals get studio-recorded tributes as powerful as this one. This is a song dedicated to Late YS Dimka, a man who most of his ex-students will agree is beyond reasonable doubt, one of the greatest principals in the country. This is a song that echoes the greatness of a man who dedicated most of his life to turning boys into great men.
