SO I was having a discussion with a friend about the power sector reforms and predictably, we came very quickly to the issue of the tariff review. It took me a very long while to lay out for him facts about the industry that disproved his assumption that the DisCos ‘who were already making so much money, were asking customers to pay more’.

Today, in the wake of the Brussels bombing, Dr. Nabeel Qureshi wrote an oped on radicalism in Islam in which he quoted two verses from the Qur’an which are very profound. I want to be sure he is not lying or misrepresenting Islam.

It is quite disgusting and appalling that despite the trend in civilization some people who claim to be learned still lack ethical values and conduct.

A GOOD number of the reactions to President Muhammadu Buhari’s announcement that Nigeria has joined the Islamic Coalition Against Terrorism, show quite clearly that many Nigerians do not fully understand the president’s motives for this decision.

AS a development professional with some international exposure, the anomic social order in Nigeria is heart-rending. The social situations in the country occasioned by endemic corruption, bad governance and lack of responsiveness to civic duties among the general population has for long reached a critical level.
