WELCOME you to this August occasion to celebrate the passing into glory of our distinguished and accomplished personality and old boy of Kings College, Lagos. Okotako Enahoro, the father of Tony Enahoro and his younger siblings believed very much in education as a traveling teacher and supervisor of schools in the Owo area in those good old days.

Presidential Candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu’s return to the country from exile elicited widespread publicity because of the special interests Nigerians place on the fight against corruption.

The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) primaries in Edo state may have come and gone but there are several controversies trailing the congresses in the state, with the Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole battling to clear himself from allegations of imposition of some candidates. The primaries were conducted for the House of Assembly and National Assembly seats in the 192 wards in the state.

Chief Elvis Agukwe is the Imo State Commissioner for Information and Strategy. In this chat he says the Independent National electoral Commission should do more to register every eligible Nigeria. He also gives insight into the recent primaries of the Peoples democratic Party in the state among other issues. Excerpts:

THE die is cast and the race for the Benue State Government House has kick_started in full blast, same for other positions that are up for grasp by politicians who sailed through their various party primaries. But the major attraction remains the battle for the position of governor of the state come May 29th 2011.
