Shamelessness is the vilest disease of the Nigerian establishment. Author The shameless mode of the leaders of Nigeria was activated in full force on February 25 and March 18, in this year of Our Lord, when so-called national elections were staged.

Yet, billions were voted for the exercises that the organizers never believed in at all in the first instance. There was the initial drive of asking millions of Nigerians to acquire the Personal Voter’s Card (PVC) as the surefire…

Opinion: Which Way Nigeria?

Metro, News, Opinion2023, Metro, Nigeria, Opinion

“A nation is alive only when it grows, constantly discarding its outdated traditions, habits, rituals, and assumptions.” Author Nigeria is currently sitting on a keg of gunpowder and the gatekeepers are staring as if nothing is happening. “Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.” Author The general election has just been held in Nigeria; the winners are saying, “it is free and fair” while the losers are saying, “it’s the worst election ever”. Whichever side you fall, just know there is fire on the mountain. The 2023 general elections have further broadened our…
