With the attack, last Sunday, on worshippers at St. Philips Catholic Church, Ozubulu in Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State, there is no doubting the fact that living in Nigeria is becoming a huge risk as life gets ‘nasty, brutish and short.’

A few weeks ago, I wrote about spouses who sponsored their other halves to the university and when they graduated, they dumped the benefactor-spouses, because they felt their spouses are now beneath their new status.

THERE can be humour in serious matters; and I nearly fell off my perch, laughing till tears came to my eyes, when I heard that the zany, iconoclastic entertainer, Charley Boy Oputa, is heading a new “movement” known as #OurMumuDonDo!

It is the moral right of any to criticise Buhari for staying ‘too long’ on medical treatment, it is not their ‘legal right’ to compel him to return or to resign unless they can show a law upon which their claim can be based

AS we begin the homerun to 2019, many politicians are understandably hungry to be the next president of Nigeria. Only one appears to be doing so in a bold and emphatic manner: Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, a former two-term Vice President of Nigeria and (putatively) a member of the ruling All Progressives Alliance, APC. I choose my words carefully because you and I know Atiku’s penchant to jump from one political party to another. Since he started running for president in 1993, he has never run on the same party platform twice. It is unlikely he will consummate his next presidential run in the APC if ailing President Muhammadu Buhari runs for a second term.
