I JOIN millions of Nigerians at home and in the Diaspora to mourn the death of our foremost nationalist, an elder statesman, pro-democracy activist, journalist and one of Nigeria’s frontline politicians, Chief (Dr) Anthony Eromosele Enahoro the Adolo of Uromi who died peacefully on 15:12:2010 at the age of 87, in Benin City, the Edo State Capital.

THERE is something about the Nigeria system that defies all logic and reasoning. The country has been enmeshed in the zoning brouhaha since the demise of our dear president, late Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. During his long absence, due to ill-health, there were subterranean and unconstitutional moves to block the then Vice-President Dr. Goodluck Jonathan from assuming office because the President did not properly hand over to him, before travelling for medical treatment in Saudi-Arabia.

AFTER the first round of the October 31, 2010 election, Laurent Gbagbo secured 1,756,504 popular votes or 38.4 per cent of total votes while Alassane Ouattara got 1,481,091 of popular votes or 32.07per cent.

THERE are several festivals the Bayelsa State Government can bankroll yearly, as part of an articulated programme to show-case the state’s rich tourism potentials to the world.

THE build-up to the 2010 Ivorian Presidential election was as dramatic as the election itself. The election which produced two presidents, two prime ministers, two governments, two armies and two capitals will go down in Ivorian political history, paradoxically as one of the freest and fairest, ever held in the world’s greatest cocoa producing country.
