National park for Abia State? No! By Ochereome Nnanna

National park for Abia State? No! By Ochereome Nnanna

Today, I have a word of criticism for my cherished brother, friend and leader, His Excellency, Dr. Alex C. Otti, Executive Governor of Abia State. We have said one or two things concerning his exploits in the good governance of Abia State, which have been widely acknowledged by appreciative Abians and people of goodwill everywhere. The only […]

NLC and the big ‘war’ ahead, By Ochereome Nnanna

NLC and the big ‘war’ ahead, By Ochereome Nnanna

THE Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, is saddled with three mandates. The first is the classical or labour mandate – fighting for the interests of the working class. The second is the social mandate – protecting the interests of the masses in an environment where the ruling elite have increasingly become more selfish, corrupt and incompetent than ever.

Dismantling of Muhammadu Buhari, By Ochereome Nnanna

Dismantling of Muhammadu Buhari, By Ochereome Nnanna

I HAVE just published a book on Amazon titled: Buhari: Tinubu – How They Snatched and Shared Power. It has not yet been formally unveiled, but it will be, very soon. It is an analytical reportage and documentation of the politics and intrigues (which spanned over 30 years) that produced the dethronement of the Peoples […]

Where is Tinubu’s executive capacity? By Ochereome Nnanna

Where is Tinubu’s executive capacity? By Ochereome Nnanna

EVEN before what became the All Progressives Congress, APC, was formed, I knew it would be a disaster. I prayed for the merger not to work. But my prayers were not answered. The merger not only worked, the party won the 2015 presidential election with Muhammadu Buhari as president. Buhari’s presidency, according to the APC […]

Asari’s sinister dance, By Ochereome Nnanna

Asari’s sinister dance, By Ochereome Nnanna

TRUE friends of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should call him aside and whisper wisdom into his ears with regards to his dalliance with Niger Delta “repentant” militant and self-acclaimed “Biafra fighter”, Dokubo Asari. This is not the first time I am raising this issue on this forum. Any which way you look at it  this […]

Stop intimidating the Election Tribunal, By Ochereome Nnanna

Stop intimidating the Election Tribunal, By Ochereome Nnanna

I attended a college in Abiriba known as Enuda High School. Established in 1954 through communal efforts, the institution was pioneered mainly by teachers trained at home and abroad through the contributions of Abiriba sons and daughters. Enuda High School was Made-in-Abiriba, through and through. We wore white shirts upon white shorts or trousers to […]

Redefining our security threats (2), By Ochereome Nnanna

Redefining our security threats (2), By Ochereome Nnanna

The Bola Ahmed Tinubu regime has crossed the 40-day mark. So, what has changed, security-wise? We expected that with the coming of a new president, the Fulanisation killings perpetrated by killer herdsmen in the Middle Belt, especially Southern Kaduna, Plateau, Benue and Taraba, would be immediately confronted with full force. We expected action against the […]

Redefining our security threats (1), By Ochereome Nnanna

Redefining our security threats (1), By Ochereome Nnanna

We want Nigeria to be safe and secure again. We want to return to Nigeria of the 1970s and 1980s when you could travel to any part of the country without fear of being kidnapped for ransom or ritual or human trafficking. During that time, there were no Boko Haram terrorists. The brief moments violent […]

Ribadu must advise Tinubu wisely, By Ochereoma Nnanna

Ribadu must advise Tinubu wisely, By Ochereoma Nnanna

Tinubu has demonstrated throughout his remarkable political career that he can work even with his arch enemies if that is what it will take for him to reach his goal; that is a good leadership quality

Mudashiru Obasa’s war agenda, By Ochereome Nnanna

Mudashiru Obasa’s war agenda, By Ochereome Nnanna

The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, is on a war footing. He has just been unanimously re-elected for the third time as Speaker. As an inner chamber member of the Bola Tinubu political family, his declared legislative agenda can rightly be read as Tinubu’s new agenda for Lagos after losing […]

Our next Senate President, By Ochereome Nnanna

Our next Senate President, By Ochereome Nnanna

Power sharing has become a reality of Nigerian politics and democracy. The even distribution of offices among the different parts of the country to give Nigerians a sense of belonging in their government was called “zoning” during the National Party of Nigeria, NPN, days in the Second Republic, when it was first mooted. The NPN […]
