Nigerian politics and the 2015 election campaigns
AS I write this about 2pm on the 28th day of March 2015, millions of Nigerians across the country have been out for several hours participating in the process of electing political office holders in an election that has been described by many as perhaps the most keenly contested in the years since Nigeria attained independence.

Every woman must have at least one skill – Joy Okolie
“Presently, we are into skills acquisition programmes where I train women in bead-making, hat-making, ankara shoes and bags, twine bags, shoes, tailoring, hairdressing etc. We organise talk shows where we talk to women on the importance of skills, why it is necessary for every woman to have at least one skill that she can always fall back on. I really look forward to expanding my business, to have a training centre where people can come in any time for training and you just pay a token. We try to make our training affordable,” she said.

It is your responsibility to determine which kingdom the people you meet are from. If the person is from the kingdom of your father, you must determine why I want you to meet him.”
