THE current government is making very concerted efforts to transform the Nigerian agricultural sector in a bid to make the nation self-sufficient in food production, as well as to earn foreign exchange from the exportation of agricultural products.

IT is perhaps in the vain and futile imagination of the government that such visit would reverse what is a clearly a well thought-out and carefully executed policy of the Saudi regime.

FEW days after the reports, that authorities of Saudi Arabia detained Nigerian female pilgrims, its embassy in Nigeria held a reception in Abuja to mark the founding of the reclusive and arch-conservative kingdom.

WHY are we here, and where would we go after now? The story of Pa Viemudu Igho tells it a little. And a great account as this should start from cradle. Pa Igho is middle child of three children of grand Pa Igho Kodi and grand Ma Sheho Kodi (nee Mavaje), both of Owhrode, in present day Udu Local Government Area of Delta State.

I DOUBT if there can be any act of barbarism, bestiality and brutality that can parallel the notorious attacks and gruesome murder, in their prime, of four students of the University of Port Harcourt by a mad mob?
