A childish sermon on Children’s Day, by Ugoji Egbujo
With nursery school children languishing in the forest, tortured by bandits who snatched them from school, President Tinubu ought to be sleepless . Or at least speechless. But no. Tinubu is a god. He is a living encyclopedia of strategies. Beyond reproach and accountability. He removed fuel subsidies. So he rescued the country from the valley of […]
Tinubu must find Dollars NOT scapegoats, by Ugoji Egbujo
If they leave the major bleeding points oozing to fan the man because he is sweating, then they are like our government that has left crude oil thieves to chase BDC operators.

The economy is wobbling, and the govt is fumbling, by Ugoji Egbujo
While the naira gasped for breath, the nation sent 400 tourists to Dubai to fill the gallery in a climate change conference. Two weeks ago, the President dabbed powder on the wound.
