(my comment – fair is fair. the same Jide Ojo of the Punch who wrote a scathing remark on the Electoral Act amendment bill has reviewed his position. And I support him on this, given the details. If you read the first take, you must read this one. Buhari is right on this) https://punchng.com/buhari-right-to-veto-electoral-act…/ Jide...
I like engaging with tough issues. Perhaps that is what got me to this point. Leading a country (or even trying to do so) cannot be an easy affair. And so, the other day when my co-aspirant Omoyele Sowore made a statement about cannabis and was lampooned by a broad swathe of his critiques for...
I feel compelled to write about this because I had been broaching the issue and writing around it – and I had taken pains to discuss this with the parties that matter. Now that PACT has culminated in the way I predicted it would because of its many contradictions and naive assumptions, it is apt...
Let me start by commending Acting President Osinbajo. I heard that while President Buhari was out in London, he started revisiting the issue of tenure for permanent secretaries, directors and other big shots. While Umaru Yar’Adua reigned, he signed into law a recommendation by the Oronsaye Committee, that these big cats in the civl service...
Infrastructure – It is very true that our infrastructure has collapsed. A lot of what we rely on today were inherited from colonial powers. Corruption has seen to it that we were not able to add much more. The big issue here is that we don’t have enough of our own liquidity to leverage on,...
Yorubas say we should not all sleep and put our heads in one direction. This means people should think outside-the-box sometimes, and bring on new perspectives, no matter what this is worth. This also means that traditionally and historically our people understand the value of being contrarian. They also say that 20 children cannot play...
The other day, Aare Afe Babalola wrote an article. It was about Ikogosi Warm Springs and the tourist resort that was built around it. He was one of the original investors and complained about how they are yet to get any dividend therefrom, while the tourist centre is dead today. The Aare – a legal...
Look we must commend a good initiative. Even as an opposition leader I will readily commend whatever the incumbent leaders do correctly. The launching of Nigeria Air, in keeping with the promises of President Buhari looks like a commendable move. I will not hasten to throw it out the window. But I believe it needs...
So the other day I went to one bank to update my BVN no. I went with anger and consternation because I got a text days before that they had cleaned out my N11,660 balance into their sundry accounts – from where it will be added to their profits. Eh!! In this dry season why...
I wrote an article recently on the restructuring debacle. There were aspects I decided not to include in that article because of length, which I hope to now consider. There were also a few reactions which I believe a further analysis and research will help clear. My take is that geopolitical restructuring is a tricky...
