Nigeria’s Security Challenges; Looming Crisis: Sir Chikwe Udensi Proffers Solution.

Sir Chikwe Udensi, a renowned security consultant, has raised the alarm about Nigeria's escalating security challenges, warning that the country’s designation as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC) by the United States is a wake-up call for the government to take immediate action. Speaking on African Independent Television (AIT), Udensi emphasised that the CPC designation is not just a label, but a precursor to potential economic sanctions, reduced loans, and aid, which could cripple the nation's economy.

Wike versus Naval Officer: A Lesson for National Reflection – Peter Obi

The recent needless altercation between the FCT Minister, HE, Barr. Nyesom Wike and a Naval officer are yet another unfortunate reflection of the growing institutional disorder in our country.
