At a time when the alleged acrimonious campaign to Islamise Nigeria by an emerging power bloc is almost gaining currency, few members of the public, the Press, or the political class have never actually presumed- in context or in full- the hidden agenda of the new clique of powerful anti-Christian elements whose ultimate design is to implement the secret accord they had with their sponsors.

A PARTICULAR trend by a section of Nigeria’s public opinion commentators is the easy resort to herd disposition. By this, they easily fall over a particular issue, chorusing the same argument in a manner reminiscent of a flock in dire need of pasture. The engagement, ordinarily, may not give cause for concern. The danger, however, […]

I read with utmost dismay, a statement written by Buruji Kashamu via his media aide, Austin Oniyokor in response to my commentary titled; Buruji Kashamu: Buhari’s First Litmus Test, published few days ago

THE above quote from the popular Shakespearian play, Macbeth, clearly illustrates the brevity and vanity of life. Indeed, uwa bu paw-paw, oda n’ala, otipia meaning, life is paw-paw, if it falls on the ground, it breaks into pieces. No wonder the Bible says, “Lord, teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Death dealt a cruel blow on the family of Late Gilbert Uzoma Njoku-Elegonye on April 17 when our eldest brother and mentor, Mr. Godfrey Emeka Njoku, without saying a word, bade this world of humans, farewell.

Last week, precisely April 28, 2015, the Vice President, Namadi Sambo, was represented by the Honourable Minister of State for Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda, at the launch of IPSAS Accrual Accounting Manual in Nigeria.

HIS name is now as household as the “report of fashion in proud Italy”. He is a leader of leaders; and a true leader at that; because he commands not from the rear, but he braces, with his chest the heat and the chill of all battles. He is the veritable “Knight of the Garter” […]

In the period before South African independence from the Apartheid regime in 1994, the all-white dominated government in that country had instigated black-on-black violence (pitting the Zulus under Chief Buthelezi against other tribes)in order to weaken the liberation efforts of the African National Congress (ANC) led by Nelson Mandela, who was in prison then

One of the most troubling developments resulting from the escalation of violent extremism in the Middle East is the rise in the number of Muslims from the West who are joining the ranks of jihadist groups, notably ISIS. Western governments are struggling to find out what motivates young Muslims to leave their sheltered lives—many are well-to-do and educated—only to join radical organizations that offer an elusive goal and the prospect of violent death.
