As it is with politicians across the globe, and especially Nigeria whose business is politics, political campaign promises made by politicians to Nigerians as elections draw near has been the bane of democracy in this part of the world.

Most times, the victory of a political party and its aspirants/candidates vying for various elective positions is dependent on the campaign promises made in addition to a number of other factors; such as competence, qualification, popularity, acceptability, integr

The Rivers State Chapter of All Progressives Congress (APC), said much like other well-meaning people and Nigerians, received without surprise the usual hollow and rambling state broadcast by Gov. Nyesom Wike yesterday, the main opposition party in the state is not also “surprised because it is a notorious fact already known to many politicians and observers that Gov. Wike was thrown into his present panic mode ever since he failed in his desperate attempt to secure the Presidential and later Vi

THE KIDS ARE DOING ALRIGHT, BABY!

      One of the things I learned while job hunting many years ago (during yet another economic downturn) is that you need to ‘turn off’ the mainstream mess (MSM) because the ‘talking heads’ will cause you more harm than good with their steady stream of bad news.  Therefore, following that advice, I’ve decided to supply some good news on the youth front.

 STILL PAINTING ALL OF OUR YOUTH WITH A BAD BRUSH:

     It’s not that hard to turn on the news or get your ‘dai

WHEN WOMEN GO ASTRAY

     As one of my favorite illustrations goes, there were four women who died on the same day.  They were a housewife, a college professor, a prostitute and the CEO of a large corporation.  The four women arrived at the gates of Heaven and were met by St. Peter.  “We’ve got a special today, ladies.  You get to spend three days in Heaven and three days in Hell.  On the seventh day, you get to choose your eternal destination.”  He spoke.

     For three days, the women got to t

****Allege Bias And Financial Misconduct

The leadership of the Save Nigeria Group have called on INEC and the Federal Government to investigate the activities of the Akwa Ibom State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mike Igini.

The group in a statement released on Wednesday 29th June, said that the State REC has derailed from his primary assignment. In his statement, Comrade Benson Iheanacho, the South-South coordinator of the group, stressed that Mike Igini has exposed himself as a corrupt and bi

     If you know your KJV Bible, you have a firm grip on what has been happening in America over the last several decades.  We—as a nation—have been and continue to be on a downward slide spiritually and it continues to manifest in tangible ways across every imaginable institution.

      Politics is no exception.  It has become only the latest, tangible example of corruption.

      From a prophetic point of view, Jesus Christ IS soon going to rapture His church home. This comes from several place

     Sometimes, it pays to go back and study our own personal history and remember how certain events or people helped to shape our lives.  David W. Daniels takes a fond look back to his formative Christian years in the work “51 Reasons Why The King James: A Path From Doubt To Faith” (2018, 215 pages, Chick Publications).

     With the KJV Bible (also known as the Authorized Version of 1611) having been around for more than 400 years, Daniels pens a work based upon many successful podcasts

The just-concluded PDP presidential primaries, which ought to be a trending story in the media seem to have been eclipsed by a more worrisome development that happens to be the conspiratorial plot to draft former President Goodluck Jonathan into the race to succeed President Buhari under the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, which had hitherto sacked Jonathan from Aso Rock, in 2015.

The former President had held sway for six years, having completed the remaini

The dramatic end to Gov. Nyesom Wike’s presidential quest has been described by the Rivers State Chapter of All Progressives Congress, APC, as prayer answered for the teeming workers, pensioners and the downtrodden in Rivers State.

Speaking to pressmen shortly after the governor lost his bid to get the Presidential ticket of his Party, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, at the Party’s Presidential primary election held last Saturday at Abuja, the State Publicity Secretary of APC, Chris Finebone,

Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Haiti are just three countries that are experiencing dire financial disaster. Even Puerto Rico, part of the mighty United States of America, the richest country in the world, has been battling bankruptcy. I am sick and tired of seeing on TV desperately poor people in countries all over the world. People, mostly black, without enough food, in rags, with shacks for shelter, with many defying nature to remain alive. But, many die too and by horrible death. These pictures haunt m

Republicans play dirty political games, often at the cost of citizens. Maryland Republican governor, Larry Hogan is playing dirty political games against Baltimore mayor Brandon Scott by criticizing Scott’s plan to reduce crime. Reducing crime is a very difficult, almost impossible undertaking. Multiple crime plans have been tried all over America and every single one has failed. If even one had succeeded, everyone would have adopted it and there would be no need for other plans. For such a diff

      Every few years, a solid, well-written business book emerges from the shadows to ‘stand out’ and become a ‘must have’ guide.  A work that will help not only the career seeker, but the job recruiter.  Such ‘two-in-one’ books are rare.  However, once you have one in your hands, it becomes a welcome addition to your ‘business arsenal’ for many years.

      “The Unspoken Rules”, by Gorick Ng is quickly becoming one of those ‘two-in-one’ resources that will find a home in a backpack or on a boo

Delusion is defined as the act of tricking or deceiving someone Unfortunately, the teenage Buffalo killer was himself a victim. He was a victim of delusion about “white replacement” probably by Tucker Carlson of Fox News as he is one of its most visible proponent. His young life is ruined. He now faces a life in prison and probably in solitary confinement for his own protection.

I wonder if Carlson is proud of his disciple’s terrorism. I wonder how many more deluded kids like this one will  kill

The political arena has witnessed a massive boost with key presidential aspirants of the two major parties leading their teams to different states of the country in a bid to get endorsement by revered Traditional Rulers, Governors, political leaders and delegates for the primary elections expected at the end of May, 2023.

While there are assurances in some quarters, on the other hand, there are no definite commitments as delegates prefer to either wait on the promptings of the party leadership or

Since the airwaves began to be bombarded with top politicians in Nigeria, making their intentions to run for the highest office, I have watched with keen interest and tried to study the various speeches which in some cases received accolades and in other times were ignored by most Nigerians. The latter group has cogent reasons to do so, considering how many times we have read long speeches in the end and dashed the hopes of expectant masses.

While not trying to diminish any of the Presidential a
