THE Nigeria Bar Association, the Senate of the National Assembly, the Nigerian Press, Civil Society bodies and all others who have a stake in fighting for and ensuring the supremacy of the constitution must rise as one body and ask for the resignation or, if he fails to quit, then the removal of our minister of justice and attorney-general of the Federation, Michael Aondoakaa for stubbornly seeking legal subterfuges to undermine the clear provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

AFTER all, a day, including each of the “three special days,” is 24 hours, made up of morning, afternoon and night. As the ancient Greek philosopher, Protagoras of Abdera, aptly remarked, “man is the measure of all things, of the things that are, that they are, and of the things that are not, that they are not.”

Were the questions that came my way just a couple of days ago. A couple of years back I would lose myself in deep contemplation; wondering what mysteries the future held and what decisions I would have to make and probably given myself a migraine trying to come up with an answer but I thank God for the epiphany that’s been unfolding slowly but surely.

When the Federal Executive Council passed a resolution some two weeks ago confirming that the president is in good health, and therefore can govern, the whole country had thought that it would be a matter of days before Mr. President would resume at his duty post in Aso Rock. But the man is still absent!! What’s really going on? Why is anybody or group of people afraid to let a constitutionally identified individual act on behalf of this president, temporarily, until he is well enough to be at his duty post? Why is the FEC so timid over doing what’s right in the present circumstances?

Senator David Mark should today have been receiving the esteemed title of Olorogun of The Source from His Majesty, Oba Sijuwade, the Ooni of Ife.

This week, I am really addressing the young women, especially the undergraduates. That you have chosen to get educated, you will soon find out, is one of the greatest and wisest decisions that you would ever make. Most of you feel you had no choice. It was just the way it was.

This morning, a South African broadcaster (who shall remain nameless) told me that when she heard that our President had signed the supplementary budget in Saudi Arabia, she was extremely skeptical and wondered whether he was really in a fit state to understand the contents or pick up a pen!

There is little doubt that many patriotic Nigerians were greatly disappointed about the condition of the Nigerian situation last year. Many who have piously hoped for political stability got instead bickering and rumblings within the ruling parties. It was worse on the economic scene.

A good piece.My heart bleed as I just read about a Nigerian attempt at blowing up an AIRCAFT over the US. These usually provide excuse for the hardliners on both side of the divides who mark you don’t mind working together albiet temporarily to render havock and justify their wicked stand.

Alhaji Sir, when exactly did you first lose contact with your son? When you were busy as Chairman , CEO of United Bank of Africa?Or when you were Chairman of the Northern Cement Compay, or when you were Chairman Agip oil? Or board member, NEPA, NACB, NCC,or Minister of Economic Development? Last week, the press reported you retired as First Bank Chairman, at the age of 70. We are going to make sure you are just 70.

SOMEHOW, the Nigerian collective sense of the ridiculous was aroused when former NAFDAC Director General and erstwhile new Communications Minister Dora Akunyili announced upon receiving her latest brief, her plans to rebrand Nigeria.

There is also another very difficult secret a woman cannot tell her husband, and that is when the woman brings an illegitimate child into the family. You know, it is believed that it is only a woman that knows the father of her child because the child belongs to anyone whom she gives it to. These things happen all the time, and the reasons vary from one situation to another.

All Akunyili’s costly and noisy rebranding campaign, could not secure the rebranding of the country’s image; Youths like Kevin demonstrate that another country is possible

For the second year running I have been warned by my kinsmen not to dare come home for Christmas. My family would be easy prey for prowling kidnappers. Now for a rural “boy” like me, this is nothing short of tragic. A calamity of unimaginable proportions. No matter what I may be today, I am essentially a village man at heart.

THE name Eldrick Tont Woods does not ring a bell as Tiger Woods, yet both names refer to the same person, the man famously known around the world as Tiger Woods.
