Who would blame those Nigerians who are fed up with governance in this nation and have lost hope that any change of batons can bring about the sort of governance which will impact positively on the lives of Nigerians?

They say you cannot eat your cake and have it. This is what some people up North are trying to do, and I warn Acting President Goodluck Jonathan not to be trapped into a scapegoat position. He must stand his ground that our President is ill and that as Acting President, he calls the shots, brooking no instructions or intrusions from anyone or quarters.

“Politics is the madness of the many for the benefit of the few”.
As this lengthy series progresses, we shall read here the responses of the fanatical supporters of one candidate or another. The greatest sin a columnist can commit is to point out that Babangida, Buhari, Atiku, Shekarau or whoever is not perfect.

Iwu’s job is on the line. In the month or so, the I.N.E.C boss should be looking for a new job. The man, who has the final say, the acting president, has said so. The regulation has said so.

The best one can infer is a consortium of designers whose works were constrained by the materials available to them. The theory of evolution offers a superior explanation of biological complexity by spelling out in verifiable details how the mechanism of natural selection functions to eliminate organisms that could not adapt to the changing environment. What creationists see as products of design, therefore, are really the end results of evolutionary processes that have been occurring on earth relentlessly for about 3.5 billion years.

I traveled from St. Louis, to Detroit, to Amsterdam the previous Wednesday on my way to Liverpool. I did not arrive Liverpool.

Today, I really need to give all women a wake up call. Everyone is so busy doing everything, that they just do not have time for the most important things. Women work so hard these days, they do not care about their relationships and their marriages. What could be so important that a woman would get to her house everyday at 10pm or 11pm.

There is yet former military Head of State, Buhari, still very articulate and purposeful, but at the moment in dire need of a firm political base. Then there are several state governors whose appeal suffers from the limitations of an overwhelmingly parochial spread, and requires more exposure for acceptance on the national scene.

For the understanding of the chaos in the downstream sector of the oil industry, I would quote relevant paragraphs on ‘pricing of refined petroleum products‘ from my book, The ‘Thunderbolt‘ published in 2002. ‘The present problems of instability in the prices of white oils – gasoline (PMS) diesoline (AGO) and dual purpose kerosene (DPK) could be traced back to the late 1960s when the Northern elites started to clamour for uniform prices for all petroleum products and electricity tariffs.

MOST Kenyans like many Africans might not know about Iceland or where to locate it on the map. I do not know if there would be a handful of Kenyans who would have heard of the jaw breaking name, Eyjafjalljokull volcano.
