The Radioactive Republic: Nigeria And The Policy Of Detonation: By Dr. Sunny Oby Maduka (DSM)

The Radioactive Republic: Nigeria And The Policy Of Detonation: By Dr. Sunny Oby Maduka (DSM)

In the scorched annals of human tragedy, certain events do not merely break a nation; they fundamentally alter its DNA. When the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, the instantaneous flash of heat was only the beginning of the end. The true horror was the invisible, creeping poison, the fallout that drifted into the lungs of the innocents in Nagasaki and beyond, deforming generations yet unborn. Today, Nigeria is not being governed; it is being radiated. This present administration did not arrive as a builder’s crane, but as a “Little Boy” dropped onto the fragile ethnic nationalities unity,…

Ekiti 2026: Continuity, reality and comfort zone – By abiodun KOMOLAFE

June 20, 2026, is the date appointed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to hold the governorship election in Ekiti State. Ceteris paribus, this leaves exactly 91 days for the incumbent governor, Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji, aka BAO, to defend a mandate that the conventional wisdom already views as a logical bridge to four more years of consolidated progress. The consensus is that the odds heavily favour the incumbent, and for good reason. As it stands, there is no potent opposition, and there are unlikely to be legal obstacles regarding the legitimacy of his candidacy. However, while it is difficult…

Abia South is Not One Man’s Property –  By Emmanuel Bonaventure Agbai

Abia South is Not One Man’s Property – By Emmanuel Bonaventure Agbai

Let’s be clear: the Senate seat for Abia South belongs to us the people, not just one politician. Democracy isn't supposed to be a cosy retirement plan for those in power. It’s meant to make life better for us, the citizens. However, when one person stays in office for so long that the election feels like a formality, and suggesting a change is treated as an insult, we have a significant problem. Enyinnaya Abaribe has been our Senator for a long time. There’s nothing wrong with longevity, but when that longevity doesn’t translate into real, visible improvements for us, it's…

Imagine an Abia South with Chinedu Onyeizu As Senator

Imagine an Abia South where the rhythm of development beats in harmony, from the Government House in Umuahia to the industrious streets of Aba, down to the oil-bearing communities of Ukwa. Imagine a district where federal representation is not at odds with state leadership, but in perfect alignment.
