The world was suddenly jolted by the spread of an unknown virus later coded the Corona virus. It was a moment of despair, confusion and a total shift in lifestyle.

Social distancing, nose masking and hand washing became the new normal.

Everything became virtual as Lockdown was enforced.

It was a period of total chaos as the deadly yet invisible virus spread very fast. It moved from invisibility to invincibility as scientists in the organized world headed for the kill.

To be a good Republican, you must swallow the lies that other Republicans tell. Of all the Republicans, Donald Trump is by far the best liar. No wonder Republicans consider Liz Cheney a traitor for not going along with the Trump “big lie” that he won the election. Inevitably she will be kicked out of her leadership role in the party for breaching a sacred and reliable Republican strategy.

Besides, waiting to take her place, is a candidate who is much more qualified and steeped in Republican tacti

WOMAN, TEACH THY SISTER!

For many a year, the feminists and their allies in the feminized mainstream coven have been eagerly browbeating men; telling us what ‘we need to do’ with our young men.   Brothers, it took us a while to get the message, but we have done the job.  The numbers have been trending positive and our young men have been on the grow.

      Well, let me be the first to put the shoe on the other foot, and go public with my words: “It’s high time that women get their younger sisters

“If economics is the study of the use of scarce resources which have alternative uses, then it follows that there will always be unmet needs.”

Basic Economics—Fifth Edition

     With portions of America still reeling from a major economic slowdown brought on by the pandemic, this is a good a time as any to concentrate on some ‘mental re-tooling’ in the form of preparation for a society on the other side of this pestilence.  Nevertheless, no matter what society may look like, there

Here in America, police just do not realize who their worst enemy is. Right now, their worst enemy is Derek Chauvin. Derek Chauvin is a prime example of a policeman who has been corrupted by the police culture of abuse of power as a policeman’s right. As Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, he obviously feared no legal consequences even if it killed Floyd. He felt untouchable even with witnesses and on camera. As for the witnesses, he was sending precisely that message to them. “I am untouchabl

It's simple: Those who diverted the statutory 3% of Oil funds of NDDC to EFCC/NDDC Account with over $200m sitting idly there are behind the latest story on Akpabio and the EFCC ordeal.

Payments that ought to go to Nddc in the last days of Magu were forced to a special account tagged NDDC /EFCC joint account!

The masterminds who intend to nominate their crony as Managing Director of Nddc hope to keep the account growing pending when they have their way.

BUILDING YOUR OWN SUCCESS LIBRARY

     I recently ran into a young brother who had brought an interesting problem my way, which provided yet another opportunity for me to teach!  As we were talking about business building and Black economic success, he seemed a little frustrated in the fact that he could not find any books written by African Americans on business success.

     You know me.  Once the opportunity to share wisdom which I had been blessed to gather over the years, I was ready for ser

      A few years back, I was the guest on a local radio talk show.  The conversation started out concerning one of my areas of expertise: Modern Street Gangs.  My segment had finished, and the host asked me to stay over into the next segment, which dealt with another of my ar

One good thing that has emerged out of the disgusting attacks on Asian-Americans is how the American people, regardless of ethnicity, have rallied in support of them. This is indicative of real Americans. President Biden interrupted his visit to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta to reach out to that devastated Asian community there. A wide range of Democratic politicians have made sure to  show their support and deplore these dastardly acts.

However, I am not aware of Republican s

 ….urges Governors to consider the needs of the Citizens before execution of projects

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

     Make no mistake about it.  There is a continuing war escalating between parents and those in charge of public education.  Parents want to see their children receive the best education possible, even if they have to do it themselves.  Public school officials in some cities and states would like to ma

     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
