Opinion: What if the elections had held in February?

by Ralph Egbu …we have closed our senses to doing the small things that matter and that omission has led to huge dislocations that are manifesting in the rule of the jungle.

Opinion: The troublesome dilemma bedeviling Jega

by Ralph Egbu Jega worst dilemma comes from the card reader issue. It is a good idea executed in a very wrong manner.

Opinion: Nigeria’s democracy needs a stable APC to grow

by Ralph Egbu If you prod the scholars in the political science departments in our universities about what this development portends, many are likely to say it is a positive development, in that a quiet but bloodless revolution is breeding underneath, which has great potentials to positively alter our nation’s political equation for the best....

Opinion: The PDP and APC are of the same difference

by Ralph Egbu What has finally happened is that in place of having a new party to provide the kind of alternative necessary for the time, our politicians have led us to further entrenched the PDP tendency on the nation. By the act of last Tuesday, we now have PDP One and PDP two. One... Read More

Opinion: Gov. Fashola’s greatest achievement

by Ralph Egbu But Fashola caused me to cease: against expectation he apologized to all for the development which certainly achieved a result far from what was obviously intended.

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

Ralph Egbu: PDP crisis – Tukur is not the problem

Ralph Egbu: 2015 – The regretful things

by Ralph Egbu They are not quarrelling over roads, education, how to fight the world’s economic wars or better still, how to make our nation a contributor nation.

Opinion: Gov. Suntai and the evil side of politics

by Ralph Egbu Those who would have misgivings about this point and begin to shout bogus “progress of the people” should note that the Suntai situation is not novel.
