Participate in nation building within your neighborhood, in the things that concern you and your community. An American writer described democracy as the tyranny of the masses. Another... Read More

Tunde Leye: Lazy Nigerian intellectuals (Y! FrontPage)

by Tunde Leye Many will complain about funding and lack of government backing. There is some truth in this. But I know of many professors who receive research grants and use it for personal purposes. I know of those who have government backing but see it as only a means of entering into government to... Read More

Suraj Oyewale: Fashola, it’s time to blink | Sanusi – All hail the new Emir (Y! FrontPage)

by Suraj Oyewale Of all the examples critics wield in support of their anti-Fashola elitism argument, the hike in fees of students of the state’s university is the hardest to defend. I have written many adulatory articles on the governor of Lagos state, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola and I stand by the accolades. To... Read More

Tunde Leye: The indigene hypocrisy (Y! FrontPage)

by Tunde Leye I cannot be nominated a minister from Lagos State. And to think of becoming the governor of Lagos State? I will be asked what exactly I am smoking. Yet I would meet all the constitutional requirements for all of these. When the news filtered that Chuka Umunna was potentially the next leader... Read More

Collins Uma: We need less protests and more answers (Y! FrontPage)

by Collins Uma Another question nibbling away at a corner of my mind is “Where are these girls?” Some say they are in Sambisa forest and that is why our soldiers have refused to blow the place to smithereens so as to avoid collateral damage. It is no longer news that President Goodluck Jonathan is... Read More

Suraj Oyewale: PIB, deregulation and Nigeria’s non-reading activists (Y! FrontPage)

by Suraj Oyewale So when the PIB finally becomes an Act and, in implementing the provisions, fuel subsidy is totally removed, I hope some people will not just wake up from their slumber and begin another round of street protests, when during the public hearings on the Bill, nobody deemed it fit to bring...

Tunde Leye: Enforcing the law within the law (Y! FrontPage)

by Tunde Leye There are thousands of Nigerians languishing in illegal detention, some tortured, and some killed. One wonders if the Boko Haram members that are freed in the numerous jailbreaks reported by the media were detained under the ambits of the law. Law enforcement must never be done outside the confines of the law,... Read More

Tunde Leye: Tin billionaires – Why Dangote and his ilk won’t thrive outside Nigeria (Y! FrontPage)

by Tunde Leye In Nigeria, we have billionaires who are worth more than the companies from which they are supposed to derive their wealth. We have people making billions from industries where their wealth does not correlate with the activity that such value should generate. How, for example, should someone make billions from cement without... Read More

Tunde Leye: Nigerians must be careful what they wish for (Y! FrontPage)

by Tunde Leye The most disturbing reactions however were from those who believed there might have been a coup and were practically rejoicing about the prospects. We must be careful what we wish for.

Japheth Omojuwa: Nigeria’s Vision 20: 2020 and new realities (Y! FrontPage)

by Japheth Omojuwa The time has come to embrace this reality and do something different. The World Economic Forum’s global competitive index for Nigeria does not reflect any sign that our vision is being fulfilled as we go on.
