The President and Founder of Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative, a non-governmental organization noted for its advocacy inclination amongst other positive ideals, Chief Christie Oby Ndukwe says that Probe of South-South Governors over Covid-19 Funds is an effort in futility

Radisson Blu Hotel, Ikeja, venue of the award ceremony, wore its usual serene ambience. Guests and award recipients walked into the venue with measured steps to the serenading music at the background. Resplendence and posh were the aura that pervaded the entire place. Being an event put together to honour some select women, the razzmatazz and glamour were on point.

Unlike the usual "African Time" associated with most events in Nigeria, the 2021 African Women Industrialization Award ceremony, kic

     One of the best quotes I heard to sum up modern liberals comes from Dr. Thomas Sowell, in his description of social justice.  According to Sowell: “Envy plus rhetoric equals “Social Justice”.  Think of this the next time someone (or something) gets ‘cancelled’ by the ‘woke’ generation.  People are sooooo envious of an

It was a thing of joy as the newly built NDDC headquarters situated on the Eastern bye-pass axis of Rivers State was commissioned by the President and Commander-in- Chief of the Armed Forces, Muhammadu Buhari.

A non-governmental and advocacy organization – Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative CQTI has expressed joy and commendation over the Eastern Railway, Bonny Seaport and Railway Industrial Park flag off construction in Port Harcourt, Rivers State by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The group in a statement titled “The Eastern Railway, Bonny Seaport and Railway Industrial Park: President Buhari Flags off Construction in Port Harcourt” said, “Leadership has to be visionary for people to feel the impact.

It seems that I am lucky to be a mature settled married man. But, there are many other men who seek sex among consenting adults. And, there’s the rub – “consenting adults”. Actually how does a guy get consent without such actions being considered “sexual harassment”? A lady friend of mine, a platonic friend, told me it was considered sexual harassment to tell a woman she has beautiful hair. I was surprised at my ignorance. On many occasions, total strangers, women mind you, have told my red-head

The Republican Party is dead. Trump killed it. I wondered how 74 million Americans could vote for a dishonest, racist liar for president. I know the popular Republican political strategy is telling  lies. It has been very effective but Trump has mastered that ‘big lie’ skill beyond expectations which would have made Hitler proud. Trump most famous ‘big lie’ is that he won the elections and according to the polls, despite his obvious loss, 70% of Republicans believe him.

Despite Trump’s  complete

     I would like to take the time to welcome each reader to “THE MANHOOD LINE,” a column written to put forth solutions for men, regardless of their color, achievements, age or issues.  Let me say from the outset that this column is unique.  It is not a column to show women where their problems may be.  However, this column it is an answer for many, many, many men whom you and I know are tired of being labeled as monsters, misfits, or idiots.

     Nearly everyone has heard of Samson; the man who was blessed by God in the Old Testament Book of Judges (Chapters 13-16 KJV) to begin taking the Philistines down a few pegs on the humility meter.  Samson had a good run but lacked focus on God and his true mission. He wound up having his hair cut (the source of his st

Just as the news of the return to site of contractors handling the construction of the long abandoned East-West road project was yet to simmer down properly, Citizens Quest For Truth Initiative CQ4TI, an advocacy group, has uncovered an unsavoury plot by some self-styled community leaders to put paid to the developmental strides of the President Mohammadu Buhari's administration.

Reports have it that one of the youths said to be related to the Chairman of the Community Development Committee (CD

It took more than four years, but Jamaica has finally signed  a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the United States (US) that seeks to stamp out corruption at the ports, which has, for decades, facilitated the inflows of guns, drugs and other illicit items The 20-page MOU has been in Washington for the past nine weeks going through the various stages of approval.

I am very skeptical of Jamaica signing this deal based based on the historical disrespect and abuse of Jamaicans in the similar S

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a polarizing Nobel Peace Prize-winning figure, charismatic preacher, and defender of desegregation is honored for challenging racist laws and the legislators who upheld them with non-violent action during a time when violence rained down on Black people who done nothing more than simply be born Black.

One of the most infamous cult leaders was Jim Jones. The faithful loyal followers of his cult would do anything he said. They were so loyal that he could shoot an individual on a widely trafficked New York City street and not "lose one follower". Such is the nature of a cult.

However, this time Trump did not order his Republican cult members to swallow Kool Aid. Instead, he incited them to attack the US Capitol. They obediently did, but many now face arrest for this seditious act. So far, the fa
