All types of “isms” filled speeches from these young military leaders, and thus, ethnicity became one of the major problems of Nigeria.

Deconstructing the Abia assault dogs

IN one of my recent articles published in some national dailies, I did raise my discomfort with the wave of abuse which the social media via the Internet is presently enmeshed in. I took Abia as a case study. My reason for the choice of Abia is unarguably obvious.
