Tunde Fagbenle: Prayers the country does not need

by Tunde Fagbenle To make matters worse and also extend the time farther, the issue of “political correctness” or is it “religious correctness” has seeped into the system in a manner that is peculiarly Nigerian: opening and closing prayers by members of both Moslem and Christian religions, one after the other or alternating. Nothing could... Read More

Abdulrahman Leme: Pres. Jonathan has tried his best but it’s not good enough

by Abdulrahman Leme The only way Nigeria will reclaim its lost glory in Africa and the world at large is by ensuring a successful common sense revolution has taken place.

Abdulrahman Leme: Nigeria may soon get its first elected female governor, and this is why

by Abdulrahman Leme Despite the fact that in the recent years women have participated actively in our political processes and have held several political and public offices, there hasn’t been a female governor, vice president or president in Nigeria.

Bayo Oluwasanmi: What Nigerians must do beyond 2015

Opinion: Nigeria needs change and so does Lagos

by Tope Adesipo A vote for Buhari is a vote for positive change but also a vote for Agbaje in Lagos is also for positive change and for sustaining the freedom and democratic aspirations of Lagosians so that feudalism and monarchy is not surreptitiously substituted for our democratic constitution in substance, if not in form....

Opinion: Who says Uncle Jona isn’t working?

by Olamuyiwa Adedotun In the past three years, President Jonathan’s administration has produced an average of about 1.4 million jobs each year. Amidst a time such as this, it is increasingly becoming a Herculean task to sieve the truths from falsehoods. Propaganda and outright lies now fill our airwaves. Politicians and their sympathizers have perfected... Read More

Sonala Olumhense: Election is not about Buhari or Jonathan

by Sonala Olumhense For five years, I have pointed out how weak and unsuitable for leadership Mr. Jonathan was. But it is all clear to me now: his mission in politics was never to be a conqueror or an achiever, for he is not so equipped; it was to show Nigerians how nasty life... Read More

Opinion: These aspirants don’t care about what unites us

by Adesina Oluwaseun Sport should be an integral part of what any sincere government should place as a priority. I have critically watched with keen observation the various presidential candidate in the February 14 Presidential election in Nigeria.

#YNaija2015Blog: APC’s Gbenga Olorunpomi writes on Jonathan’s chances in the elections

by Gbenga Olorunpomi Any president that takes 19 days to respond to the kidnapping of over 200 girls and never took the time to visit their parents ought to be loathed. Any man who chooses to stand side-by-side with crooks, killers and militants does a great disservice to the Green-White-Green. I never gave President Goodluck... Read More

Adaobi Nwaubani takes you through the different sets of Nigerians who will vote for GEJ or GMB – and why

by Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani There are those who will vote for Buhari simply because he is not Jonathan. For them, change is the word of the hour, and they would happily exchange Jonathan for a Halloween pumpkin if that were the only alternative available. Sixteen years after the end of military rule, many Nigerians... Read More

Olusegun Adeniyi: 2015 elections – This is the time to choose

by Olusegun Adeniyi I am quite aware that religion and politics have so intertwined in Nigeria that there is hardly any public official who does not openly identify with one and no Government House in Nigeria is complete without either a Church or a Mosque, or in some instances both. While I have no problem... Read More

Opinion: Nigerians will vote Buhari only for one reason

by Ayo Sogunro This brute-force social engineering had its intended effect: the Nigerian society was cleaner, more orderly, more disciplined and less susceptible to corrupt influences. But forced behaviour can last only for as long as there was someone to enforce it… The biggest failure of the Goodluck Jonathan regime is, probably, its unwitting reconciliation... Read More

Opinion: The type of leader Nigeria really needs
