SubscribeAfricans shouldn’t join our xenophobic South African brothers in lunacy, by Owei Lakemfa
South Africa united Africa and the Black Race more than any other as we fought Apartheid, one of the most evil systems humans ever created. Apartheid was backed by some of the most powerful countries in the world such as the United States, United Kingdom and Israel which also practices an Apartheid variant called Zionism. But, […]
Socio-economic crises: Nigerian workers sang, danced and gave ultimatum, by Owei Lakemfa
Colourfully dressed. Waving flags. Singing. Wriggling waists. Exchanging banters. Backslapping. Workers danced at various venues on Friday, commemorating the 2026 May Day. Their smiling faces camouflaged their pains. But their banners and placards revealed their inner thoughts.

May Day! May Day!! May Day!!! The desperate calls from Chicago, United States workers in 1886, taken up by workers of the world, now sounds more desperate.

Nigerians have no friends in Tel Aviv, by Owei Lakemfa
Nigerians and Africans have no friends in Israel.

Tinubu Presidency: Governance is about truth and explanations, not propaganda, by Owei Lakemfa
There is an on-going debate in the country about the achievements of the Bola Ahmed Tinubu government. Opinions are, as expected, divided.

Government must never be tired of explaining its activities and actions which is why it has a full […]

In Nigeria, was a man, Emmanuel Olufunmilayo Odumosu, a professional carpenter like Joseph, the earthly […]
The ABC, ADC and APC of Nigerian politics, by Owei Lakemfa
In as much as many have undertaken to speak on the ongoing political crises in the country centering on the future of electoral politics, I have decided to make basic clarifications. My preferred surgical tools are the Antecedent, Behaviour and Consequence, ABC, of what might, on the long run, endanger us all and, of course, condemn […]
