Demola Rewaju: Herd mentality, mob justice and humanity – How Nigeria condemns itself (Y! Politico)

Demola Rewaju: Like Joe Igbokwe, I too see war, but not just in the Niger-Delta

The narrative of the last election was deliberately made simple to fool the simpleminded: portray Nigeria as a ship heading for the bottom of the ocean unless the captain of the ship is removed because that captain was corrupt, unable to secure the land and the economy was also spiralling out of his control. In... Read More

Demola Rewaju: Dear YNaija, Goodluck Jonathan- who’s more than a hero- is my Person of the Year

At the heart of the last elections stood several issues – the proposition that Nigeria would break up was a major one and the build-up to the election itself made it look very likely with the then opposition party threatening to form a parallel government and several stakeholders of the then ruling PDP vowing that...
