President Muhammadu Buhari has rather wisely turned the spotlight on recovering stolen funds. The President recently confirmed that his government has “received firm assurances of cooperation from the U.S. and other countries on the recovery and repatriation of funds stolen from Nigeria. According to the President, “the government in the next three months will be busy getting facts and figures needed to help us recover our stolen funds in foreign countries.”

FOR some inexplicable reasons, I am more fascinated by the baritone voice of Ambassador Baba Gana Kingibe than his personality, he seems to have a voice more reassuring than really making things happen. The very first time he spoke to me, his eloquence and oratory left me more reassured before finally meeting him. A very colourful politician and diplomat, Ambassador Baba Gana Kingibe turned 70 recently.

THE way our state governors are clamouring for bailout from President Muhammadu Buhari (PMB) shows that some of our political leaders are yet to come to terms with the emerging global oil economy.

A cascade of directives in the dying days of former president, Dr Goodluck Jonathan’s administration created eerie feelings in many a department of the country’s life.

THE happenings at the National Assembly in recent times have opened our eyes to the inevitability of change. When the time comes for change, you either ride with it or you’re blow away with it.
