by Saliku Tanko Yakassai On infrastructure, this is the one that annoys me the most. How can the writer say that “there is no government presence” in Sabon Gari when there are major road constructions going on.

by Demola Rewaju That’s where this saying comes from – nobody has a perfect relationship or marriage. I like movies really, but I’m not so much of a movie person when it comes down to it – I’m a writer and a reader and I can do both while listening to music or something else... Read More
by Onyew Bongos-Ikwue “Yes, Umar, I am something without you. I am Omotayo Ladipo.

by Ebubedike Akabuwa Contrary to some reports that it took the government two weeks to respond, the government responded promptly. The captain walked briskly around the scene. His men had cordoned off the area in a matter of minutes after the incident. They had become so good at it. And why not, he thought? They... Read More

by Suraj Oyewale I have seen some young graduates and prospective graduates vowing they can never work for anyone and they will go straight into entrepreneurship. Good one, if you have the idea.

by Demola Rewaju Aregbesola insisted from Day One on being addressed as ‘Ogbeni’ (Mister)…perhaps to make us forget he once referred to himself as an Engineer while he was the Commissioner for Works in Lagos state. Aregbesola should lose but he is not Fayemi; and Omisore is not Fayose. In the thick of the 2011... Read More
by Ronald Nzimora Gather all the cash you have, get a bottle of kerosene and a box of matches. Pour the kerosene on the cash, and then light a match to it. You’ll derive better pleasure seeing your money burn than you will ever hearing about the value evaporating over the news. Are you... Read More
by Adanna Chukwuma As long as we continue to lose our children to preventable disease, we not only perpetuate the unjust conditions that cause these deaths, we stall our progress as a nation.

by Buki Otuyemi Before baby comes, ensure you both have as much sex as you can. It would help make child-bearing easier and give the woman less chances of having tears down below.

by Sonala Olumhense Hopefully, Washington has a solution for leadership indifference and hypocrisy. Otherwise this week’s summit has only a relevance span of one month. Tomorrow in Washington, DC, the United States hosts the US-Africa Summit, a three-day meeting with Africa’s leaders. I hope the event is a tremendous success. I am not sure how... Read More
by Arome Ameh I picked up my order, and was about to strut my stuff once again, when I car pulled up behind me and I heard a familiar voice, “impish thoughts”, that was my nick name back in university, and no one had called me that in a long time, and only one person... Read More
by Femi Aribisala Paul was not one of Jesus’ disciples during his ministry. He never heard Jesus preach and he displays unpardonable ignorance about Jesus’ doctrine in his epistles. The good news proclaimed in the churches today is false. It is different from the one Jesus preached. Today’s good news is the one declared by... Read More

by Simon Kolawole Even though PDP is spending a lot of money, aggressively distributing kerosene and rice ahead of the August 9 poll, Aregbesola still has the edge. Anything else will shock me. The August 9 governorship election in Osun State is a tougher test for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) than Ekiti State. Allow... Read More
