Abia State, Column, Metro, News, Opinion, PoliticsAbia State, Enyinnaya Abaribe, Nigeria, Opinion, Politics

By Chidiebere Nwosu In the 2023 general elections, a number of politicians in Abia State, many of whom lacked strong grassroots appeal or credible electoral track records, rode to victory on the back of the widespread popularity of Peter Obi. This phenomenon, widely referred to as the “Obi Wave,” became a decisive factor, reshaping electoral outcomes across the state and beyond. Candidates who would ordinarily have struggled to secure victory found themselves beneficiaries of a powerful movement driven by hope, public sentiment, and a desire for change. Regrettably, not long after securing their mandates, some of these beneficiaries distanced themselves…

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

Column, News, Opinion, PoliticsNigeria, Opinion, Politics

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,…
