The euphoria that greeted the swearing-in of President Muhammadu Buhari as the fourth elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria since the return of unbroken democracy to the country in 1999 has long evaporated in the sports sector owing largely to poor performances on the turf on one hand and leadership crisis orchestrated by administrators on the other side, all combining to make for a year to quickly forget for Nigeria sports followers.

Outside the budget, I do not see anything the legislators have done during the year under review. They have used their time to settle internal quarrels, to fight for who will be chairman of one committee or the other, and using most part of the year mending rifts between them and even up till moment, the rifts remain unresolved. It does not augur well for this country that a parliament that has already done one year out of the four years has nothing to show for the period more than trying to patch up differences. They need to do better. Nigerians are looking at them to reflect the change that this new government wants. I am sorry to say that we are not seeing that in the legislature.

After their 10 wedding anniversary, John and Rose’s seemingly rosy marriage was falling apart. John was tired of living a lie. He was determined to make the marriage truly happy or pack it up. He decided to start from where all sensible couples should: communication. They did not travel abroad or go to some exotic hotel or resort to do it; that is for people who have the means and time. They did it right there in bed where they have earlier had a grueling intimate moment (some call it grudge sex).

EVEN when the past one year had largely been marked by issues that often times send the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and its affiliates back to the trenches, activities of the organised labour were clearly bereft of its traditional punch.
