Blessed are politicians when out of power. They reveal all the things which those in power labor to hide from us. Since December 2013, I had warned My Fellow Nigerians, about the inevitable collapse of crude oil prices and its consequences. Obviously, nobody listened. In May 2014, out of sheer frustration, associated with talking to the deaf, I wrote a column titled SO YOU WANT TO BE GOVERNOR IN 2015.
Being Enough
A scene in an American television series caught my attention a few weeks ago. A couple of years ago I had taken a fancy to the series “Soul Food” and I had religiously watched on television every Sunday at 6pm till it was abruptly yanked off the air. When I had come across the DVD boxed set of the entire series I had bought with glee.
My crowd is bigger than yours
At the onset of the electioneering campaign for next month’s general election in Nigeria, observers anticipated that two major issues would dominate the campaign. They are corruption and insecurity, especially Boko Haram’s threat to national existence.

And one day, because I didn’t want to cheat on her, I humbly asked her that we should go our separate ways. That was when all hell broke loose. She suddenly forgot about how it all started.
You can change the situation
Too many people are today being deceived that their future is hopeless and that nothing good can come out of it. They have been lied to by Satan that change is not possible.
The squandering of goodwill
If a week- seven days- is said to be a long time in politics, then seven years must be an eternity. Time enough at least to write your name on marble or on a shifting sand on the beach. It took less than seven years for example for Obama and the US to bring America out of economic depression and start creating jobs and wealth again

A popular Nollywood actor, Chief Bruno Iwuoha has called for the abolition of obnoxious cultures against women and children in the society. Bruno was speaking in Abuja, when a group under the auspices of Zion City with the support of Busy Mind Entertainment premiered a movie titled; Revelation.
The rise of female suicide bombers
Generally perceived as weak, harmless, compassionate and possessing great value for human life (being givers of life themselves), female folks were believed to be at the receiving end of conflicts and wars which usually utterly reduce them to sex tools, cooks and cleaners in the hands men.
