Governor Seriake Dickson has left no one in doubt about his determination to clear the Augean stables and the filth of corruption in Bayelsa State public service.

Giving the high cost of   migration from analogue to digital broadcasting, and the need for its reduction    in order to engender   affordability of   the set-top boxes, Khiran Keerodhur, CEO of Mauritius based Broadcasting Media Solutions, has called for a clear policy for countries in the   region based on survey and network.

I now understand why #BringBackOurGirls cofounder, Aisha Yesufu, said Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is the greatest disappointment in Buhari’s government of fake change. Come to think of it, President Buhari, whose school leaving certificate is in doubt, may be forgiven for his cluelessness. But can the same be said about Osinbajo, purportedly a PhD and Senior Advocate of Nigeria?

In a democratic system, it is expected that words or attitude that suggest threat to individual’s political freedom of choice should by all means not be encouraged. The principle of democracy demands freedom of choice and equality for all citizens. This guarantees free political participation. People are not compelled or being threatened by others to participate in elective offices.

Each day we hear reports of man inhumanity to man through sheer acts of wickedness. The most recent and very gruesome occurrence, is the callous manner in which some suspected Fulani herdsmen murdered two Catholic Priests and seventeen others who had come to worship their God early in the morning. They raided a Church, a sacred place of worship and killed the worshippers. On the internet, there is a trending video of herdsmen dressed in choir robe dancing and celebrating after one of such murderous attacks. Reports have it that over a thousand Nigerians have been murdered this year alone. Yet, we have leaders who seem helpless in bringing the situation under control. They keep on moving in circles while poor Nigerians are being hacked to death on daily basis. And when you cry out in protest they label you unpatriotic. This is unacceptable!
