Opinion: National Dialogue: We must congratulate President Jonathan

by Ralph Egbu Finally we must congratulate President Jonathan for this concession. Some have tried to make a change of mind by our leaders look like a crime. This should not be so. If even change of mind is not a world model yet, there is nothing wrong if we introduce it to the world.... Read More

Opinion: Nigerian leadership and the Nigerian people are equally irresponsible

by Frederick Nwafor As pointed out tangentially earlier, the Nigerian leadership and the Nigerian people share morsels of garbage from the entrée of irresponsibility. In society responsibility is customarily shared between the people and the government. Responsibility is also implicit in social contract which wards off anarchy. Going by this unconvoluted truism, it therefore follows... Read More

Opinion: Our leaders perish for lack of selfless advisers

by Omozuwa Gabriel Osamwonyi The Arab Spring teaches many lessons. One is worthy of emphasis. Feelings of alienation balloon when the people’s development is outside a leader’s orbit of interest. Widespread latent hostility, which easily triggers violent revolution, is near inevitable when leaders luxuriate in enclaves of splendour, while their followers pine in misery in... Read More

Opinion: Critical lessons of politics from the past

by Adisa Adeleye Many observers would attribute the immaturity of some of our political leaders to lack of link with the past. There is a notable lack of detailed records of the country‘s past political activities to guide the young but ambitious few that could be called leaders. IT has become the habit of the... Read More

Opinion: Leadership crisis – Obasanjo had his chance but failed to take it

by Dan Onwukwe The question Obasanjo tried to answer, though in a provocative way, is: why is Nigeria’s present generation of politicians, including himself, not measuring up on the scale of leadership test? Or, is Nigeria jinxed on that scale? The discussions are still intense across the land whether the visit of the President of... Read More

Opinion: Olusegun Obasanjo’s selective amnesia

by Is’haq Modibbo Kawu He profited handsomely from illegal and unconstitutional sale of national assets, including the creation of TRANSCORP, which he DIRECTLY profited from! Shamefully, Obasanjo mentioned Salisu Buhari but conveniently forgot how he personally organized the chap’s pardon and had attempted desperately to reinstate him Speaker! “It is sad that after 53 years...

Michael Orodare: June 12 and the lessons for ‘tomorrow’s leaders’

by Michael Orodare Now is the set time for negotiation as no meaningful negotiation comes after victory. The post-1993 experience is enough to learn from; not to be too fixated on struggle and ignoring the round table talk for power sharing. Though I was a boy during the hullabaloo that engulfed Nigeria after the 1993... Read More

Opinion: Small men in big shoes

by Anthony Akinola ONE inevitable fallout from our history of incessant military interruption of the democratic process has been the emergence, in positions of leadership and authority, of men and women whose credentials were least known to the public.
