This Medical Doctor was ambushed right inside his private hospital in the city centre, in broad daylight on Thursday June 25. And for over 24 agonising and nerve-wracking hours, the family had no idea where and under what conditions their breadwinner was being kept.

The Federal Ministry of Education in an invitation sent by Mrs. A.E. Aiyedun of the Department of Tertiary Education told ASUU: “At the instance of the Honourable Minister of Education, I am directed to inform you of the signing of the agreement arising from the FGN/University based Unions (negotiations)…”.

Wherever and whenever a woman is not satisfied or could not climax, both of them – the woman and the man concerned should share the blame. I believe it is a woman’s God given right to enjoy sex (in which her body participates). But who would she blame if she inhibits herself? It is the woman most of the time that holds the key to her orgasm and not the man.

“And God said, Let there be light: and there was light (verse 3) And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so (verses 6-7)

Not many Nigerians would disagree with Dokubo’s claim, knowing Obasanjo for the kind of wily fox he was. Dokubo has been, more or less, tamed so that the recent spat between him and the intelligence department during which he was detained (?) might be a baiting trick to see if there is any fire left in him.

By Paul Bassey I followed the Confederation Cup with keen interest. I wonder who did not. The rights acquired by the Broadcasting  Organisation of Nigeria (BON) further brought the cup nearer to Nigerians and with it, the attendant excitement. The Confederation Cup was also expected to be a dress rehearsal for the FIFA World Cup […]

It is the kind of building you see among multi-billionaires in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Monaco, complete with a Rock House, and an amphitheatre with an arena in its centre marked with the Star of David. Beside the main castle is a series of flushing fountains.

By Les Leba Lamido Sanusi, the new CBN  Governor’s interview with Matthew  Green of the London Financial Times is the second extensive interview granted the media house since his appointment.  Mr. Sanusi should be commended for ensuring that a local media “Next on Sunday’ was given the first opportunity to reveal the person, aspirations and […]

LET us be quite upfront with truth: Some of the individuals who are the governors of Nigerian states today could not pass their basic West African Schools Certificate examinations even in more than one sitting; some could not pass the Joint Matriculation Exam when it was the gold standard for academic performance in Nigeria; as a result they did not have the kind of standard university education available to the more talented of their peers in Nigeria, many of who probably ended up in academia, the first call in those now seemingly halcyon years, for the best products of the then highly competitive Nigerian university system. Yes, indeed, the very best were immediately recruited and retained to teach in the Universities.

I READ a disturbing piece of news some two weeks ago and it has still failed to be spiked as stale. It affects our governors, chief executives of the 36 states of the federation. They are bosses of their states, cannot be touched while they are on that high horse as executive governors, as they would prefer to be known by and referred to. Only impeachment, resignation or death can remove them during their period of office. The proviso that they must perform the functions of that office to be entitled to that protection is ignored in our interpretation of their roles.

IF, as believers argue, Lucifer has the power to deceive people, it is possible that the evil one would deceive them into accepting as the will of God something which Lucifer himself actually intended. Most believers dogmatically maintain that God’s will is embodied in the scripture. But which one? Generally, people accept the book considered sacred in the society in which they were born, and out of that book they select the parts that suit their purposes, neglecting the others.

I WOKE up to the ear piercing scream of a petrified actress and my 20 minute doze on a local flight from the nation’s capital back to Lagos was severed rather abruptly. Before I could get my bearing and fully wake up, my stomach churned as it seemed to drop in that sickening manner that feels like your intestines are falling out when a rollercoaster takes what seems like a death plunge towards the ground at break neck speed.

IT was the evening rush-back-home hour on the Oshodi/Apapa express way, with passengers waiting anxiously for transport. Lagos State road officials were very visible on the road as they usually are at rush hour in those parts.

Of course everyone knows I worked for the PDP in the first and second coming of the party in Rivers State. There is no one who does not know that I was used to get votes for the party.

Women! come on now? I read all you had to say. I do not disagree with you all. I am so much behind you but we must be able to tell the truth to one another. The reason why too many people miss it is because they get the wrong advice and wrong counsel. No one stands for the truth any more. That is why we all thank God for ‘Woman to women”. All I am saying is that let us all stop the unnecessary fighting that is going on all over.
