Jude Ndukwe: Buhari’s new NNPC board and the looming doom

By Jude Ndukwe The recent reconstitution of the Board of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, by President Muhammadu Buhari is another gross abuse of the powers of the president and flagrant disregard for our laws, the same laws which Buhari swore to uphold at his inauguration.

Uche Okorie: Why are we all such ethnic bigots? (Y! FrontPage)

by Uche Okorie Most people have this rubicund opinion of themselves of being fair and unbiased in their approach to issues.

Femi Aribisala: Bullying the South-South minorities

by Femi Aribisala If APC wins the election in 2015, Boko Haram terrorism will stop, perhaps because APC members have a special relationship with the terrorists; the same way Goodluck Jonathan is alleged to have a special relationship with Niger Delta militants. But if APC does not win the election, the insecurity in the country... Read More

Opinion: The ethnic exchanges over Stella Oduah’s indiscretion should stop already

by Frederick Nwabufor A gross percentage of Igbo people see the self-concocted concoction of troubles of Stella Oduah, the Minister of Aviation as a poisonous potion ladled out to the public by the “venomous” Yoruba media in a bid to pull her down and discredit her for the good works she has been doing because...

Okey Ndibe: Lagos deportations and crisis of citizenship

by Okey Ndibe There’s some irony in the fact that Governor Fashola has done far more than most Igbo governors in recruiting people from other states, including Igbo, to work in his government. But that does not justify his government’s policy of seizing Nigerians in Lagos and deporting them to their states of origin. he... Read More

Opinion: We are about to finally lose the North…

by ‘Dayo Olaide Without implementing the recommendations and bringing perpetrators of violence and killings to justice, there cannot be forgiveness and healing. Northern Nigeria needs help. Decades of bad governance has continued to traumatize the region.

Opinion: Beyond our ethnic and religious differences

by Abd’Raqeeb Salako The unfortunate thing is that the moment we start fighting these ethno-religious battles, we are winning the war for those who are bent on seeing the country crumble. “I write this letter with deep sense of thought and responsibility…” The above is the sentence with which I started some of my formal...

I had never written a book review, until I read ‘There Was A Country’

Tolu Ogunlesi :The PDP and the rest (YNaija FrontPage)

The ACN would do well to learn from the failings of the PDP, shun ethnic insularity, and curb a growing propensity for dictatorial behaviour. Joseph Chukwuyenum has been a “card-carrying” member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State for more than ten years. In that time he has risen to become a “Unit... Read More
