The crux of the problem we are having in Nigeria is that majority of people at the helm of affairs don’t care about the welfare of the ordinary citizens. All they are after is paraphernalia of the office they occupy, the money that come their way through the office which they use to travel abroad every now and then. But as long as their primary responsibility is concerned which is security of lives and property, they find it difficult to do their work of empowering the people to become productive.

I just simply love interiors. I love making places beautiful. I believe in the aphorism that says:“Home is where a person’s heart is. I love people coming home and being happy that they are home.” I’m also passionate about families and how they live. Frankly, one spends so much time in life working to be able to buy a house with the hope of being able to furnish it properly and enjoy.

The Niger Delta Avengers believe that they have some form of control over the oil pipelines that pass through their communities- that is why they are fighting

The lingering battle over the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State in the November 26 election between Mr Eyitayo Jegede (SAN) and Mr Jimoh Ibrahim takes a twist as Governor Olusegun Mimiko talks tough, saying the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) substitution of Jegede with Ibrahim will not stand. In this interview, Mimiko also speaks on the insinuation that he visited President Muhammadu Buhari to lobby him to defect to the All Progressives Party (APC), the ruling party at the federal level.

That was an afterthought, that is what we call damage control after the damage has been done. Those of us who know the president well will tell you that it is in his character and culture to speak that way about women. He (Buhari) still belongs to the conservative north, anything to the contrary is pretense except many of them who are trying to modernize. We started the universal voting for women because, in 1959, Chief Obafemi Awolowo pressed for it.

Esther Quist is a delectable Ghanaian lady who has bigger dreams than her size would ordinarily lead you to believe. A triple-major graduate of Computer Science, Business Administration and Psychology from a university in Poland, she has set aside her degrees to manage a blossoming artiste management company, Red Nation. In this interview, she speaks more about the label and the music industry as a whole.

As part of the change mantra of the APC administration in Bauchi State, the governor is fighting looters and exposing how they shamelessly looted the state with impunity. He has vowed to retrieve all that was looted. Some erroneously rated the governor as a joker on corruption but when he started the war, including rejecting a selfish request from the state’s national lawmakers, they resolved to fight him and make the state ungovernable. We are not folding our arms to watch them and we shall never succumb to their selfish request.

In fact, in my novel ‘The search’, I talked about the military coups. It was like some people would organize themselves and as soon as the group settles down, the chairs are pulled away. There is no doubt that some people in this country feel that they are born to rule Nigeria and that Nigeria must be ruled by them. During the war, the slogan was ‘To keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done!’ But the question is to keep Nigeria one for what purpose? So that is the Islamization.
