The Warri Federal Constituency stands on a tripod- Warri South, Warri North, and Warri South-West LGA. There exists an unwritten agreement between the three LGAs on the need to rotate the Warri Federal Constituency seat in the spirit of fairness, equity and justice.

Some years ago, I ran into a “big” Nigerian on the streets of Edinburgh, United Kingdom. To be honest, it wasnt a “running into”, it was a case of a conscious encounter.

Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan GCFR, President of the Federal Republic, Nigeria, must declare now to run for the office of the president come 2015. He must return come 2015 to sustain the good work he has started.

THE purpose of government is the welfare and security of the people. All over the world, a people’s fate is inextricably tied to government.

Once upon a time, a shepherd raised false alarm of wolf attacking his sheep but when people ran to him for rescue, he dismissed them, that it was a hoax. On another faithful day the same alarmist raised thunderous alarm, which awakened the conscience of sympathizers, and they rushed to rescue him, it was not different from the false alarm raised to curry favour, at the end it turned out to be the biggest joke of the day.

BY Thursday, September 25, 2014, the Enugu State Government would have sponsored a rally for the adoption of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for the 2015 presidential election. To this end, officials of the 17 councils in Enugu State were directed to rent at least 200 persons in each of the 260 wards in Enugu State. Public holiday has been declared and shops and markets shut down- all for a stage effect.

AFTER the election of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2011, my cousin, who lives in my hometown, called me. He told me that he, in concert with many other supporters of President Goodluck Jonathan, was celebrating the president’s electoral victory.

THERE is no doubt that today, Nollywood has become a national brand. It has become the foremost signifier of our cinematic energy as a creative people. Nollywood began small, but today it has become a huge contributor to the national economy. In the recent GDP rebasing exercise, Nollywood contributed 1.2 per cent to the national economy. If that appears little, then you have no knowledge of where and how Nollywood began.

I AM in a state of total confusion by the way and manner global affairs are being shaped largely by the activities of the Arab World and the Western Powers.

IN this centennial season of blame game over everything that has gone wrong with Nigeria since 1914, it is not surprising that President Goodluck Jonathan has become the whipping boy. Yes, the buck stops at the President’s desk – and he knows that.
