Adeyemi College of Education students sentence to life imprisonment.

                   Youth of nowadays are easily influence by bad peers. Three students of Adeyemi College of Technology would have to spend their entire lives behind bars.  The trio are member of a cult group who initiated their female members by raping  them.  Three female students were raped and the affected students witnessed against the  rapist. They were pronounced guilty as charged and they were sentence to life imprisonment.   

President Buhari visit to Oval office is a good omen for his political image.

President Buhari visit to White house will strengthen bio-lateral relationship between Nigeria and U.S.A. Donald Trump must have seen certain qualities in President Buhari and this must have informed his decision to invite him to the Oval office. President Trump affirmed that Nigeria is reputable for corruption, he also commended Buhari administration for fighting against corruption and corrupt practices. This visit is historical and it will go a long way in boosting the political image of President Buhari. It is also on record that he is the first president in the Sub-Sahara Africa to have visited an America president.

Ekiti States electorates should not vote for....

                      Ekiti state gubernatorial election is fast approaching, many political players are warming up.  Among participants are past governors of the state whose performance was not anything to write home about.  I think politicians  see clearly when they are outside power, when they are in power they ill performed.  They exculpate themselves from nagging political problems.  Electorates should not be in a rush to select their leaders this time around, people who were once in power and could not deliver should not be considered. 

Niger Delta Truly marginalised.

                      It is a common knowledge that Niger Delta are marginalised. The streams are polluted and source of their livelihood gone.  The resultant effect of this woe is emergence of militancy from that region.  The question begging for answer is that, where  are those freedom fighters now,  Asari Dokubo is cooling off somewhere.  President Jonathan could not achieve anything for his region,  or did he achieve and I am not in the know?  Government infrastructure development program should cut across all regions, no region should be neglected including Niger Delta region 

Dino Meleaye recorded victory as recalling process failed.

After he got himself injured while trying to escape from policemen that laid siege on him.  Senator Meleaye who is currently receiving medical attention has reason to smile.  His recalling process by INEC failed woefully, only 50 percent of verified voters showed up.  Senator Meleaye will now continue to perform his legislative duty but not until he defend allegation levelled against him. 

WAEC Paper leakages and Desperation for paper qualification.

    Nigeria police nabbed four man syndicates that specialises in retailing WAEC examination papers. They were arrested in four states, Lagos, Ondo and two other states.  They made confessional statement that would help the police in their investigation. One of the reason we are so backward as a country is because we so much believe in paper qualification.  Is it compulsory that everybody should write and pass WAEC exams, what about people going to technical school to acquire life long skill  Every individual have innate skill and talents, students who could not excel in academics should get involve in other profitable ventures.  If people were not desperate to pass some examination, issues of academic mercenary and WAEC papers retailers would not arise. 

Has The President committed impeachable offence.

           President Buhari.  Has MR President committed an impeachable offence?  It is an impeachable offence for the sitting president to approve a fund without Legislature approval.  President Buhari is committed to fighting insurgents and may be he think waiting for  legislature assent may take eternity.  It is a common knowledge that Legislature and Executives are not best of friends, if he had not circumvent the constitution the purpose of the fund may be defeated.  Sum of $496m dollars was released to purchase fighter jet.  President Buhari is  earnestly waiting for the process to commence. 

Oyo State in mourning state as Speaker of the House of Assembly passes on.

                      Oyo State has been thrown into state of mourning. The Hon. Speaker of the House of Assembly is dead, he became the Speaker in 2015 from Ibarapa. Politicians as usual would begin to pour encomium on him. Late Micheal Adeyemo was a quintessential leader,  he was the best Speaker in the history of the state. He left when the country and the state need him most These are kind of words you would hear from politicians. Life is temporary, politicians should govern with fear of God

What Buhari second coming portends

                       President Buhari may likely returns as Nigeria president come 2019. His return to power would have different impact on different people and economy of our great country.  To this end some corrupt politicians and past leaders will either go on exile or face full wrath of the law.  The president would be more determine to fighting corruption, afterall he has nothing to loose.  In view of this Nigerians should be ready to see how corrupt politicians will be humiliated. Effort should be geared towards adequate job creations, Bill Gate advised that Nigeria government should invest more in human development. I hope President Buhari would yield. 

IG of police turned down Senate invitation.

                    Inspector General of police Ibrahim Idris has shunned Senate invitation to appear before it. He was summoned to appear before the Senate over Dino Meleaye arrest. Should IG of police be queried because a senator was arrested? It is strange in this part of the world to bring lawmakers to book, this must have informed their decision to invite the IG of police. Dino Meleaye was alleged to have given firearms to hoodlums. What is the furore all about, he that alleges must proove. Invitation sent to IG of police is not necessary.

Many sins of Nigeria police.

Many atrocities are committed by some of the men in black. Sometimes I think they are misguided or selfish.Money is not everything, an average police officers is money conscious. After an hotel owner in Offa whose hotel was where the gang of armed robbers that wreck havoc on the town lodged was docked. It was revealed he reported to the police suspiciosness of these criminal gangs, but they could not act promptly rather money exchange hands. Unknown to them,they have committed greatest mistake of their lives.The armed robbers struck the following day and killed 9 policemen and many civilian. If we don't kill corruption, corruption would kill us.

408.studentship lost in UI due to poor academic performance.

         Senate of prestigious University of Ibadan has advised 408 students to Withdraw from the institution.  Their studentship were withdrawn due to poor academic performance.  The embattled Senator Dino Meleaye recalling process by INEC would start forthwith.  As a country, we need to sustain culture of excellence.  Poor performance should not be condoned only the best is good for Nigeria.    

Adams oshomole may emerge new APC chairman

Adams Oshomole is set to wrestle leadership position from Odigie Oyegun who is the current chairman of APC.          After the party reach a consensus not to extend tenure of current executives.  From the look of things President Buhari has given a nod for Adam's participation.  The current chairman would have to slug it out with strong opposition like Adams Oshomole.  Adams oshomole was the former governor of Edo state and he stand a better chance of becoming the next APC chairman. 

Killings of Worshippers in Benue is the height of..

Fulanis herdsmen unleashed terror on innocent worshippers in Benue. Is it difficult for government to apprehend these killers group and bring them to justice. 17 worshippers were sent to their early grave, Fulanis herdsmen are atrocious even more than Boko Haram. Condemning their activities alone is not sufficient, government budget of $1 billion dollars to fight insurgency should be fully implemented. Nigeria should not be a hell of a country,senseless killings must stop.

Accident on Ikorodu road :Eye witness account

This accident happened this morning along Ikorodu road. The white long bus hit the car from behind  the impact forced the car under the truck. According to eye witness the long white bus experience break failure Thankfully no lives was lost.

Did Senator Meleaye Truly Jumped ?

Distinguished Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial district has been in the eye of the storm for a while. En route Morocco he was picked up by policemen who had earlier declared the Senator wanted in connection with illegal possession of arms. The Senators dreaded police custody too well that he had to jumped out of police vehicle conveying him to Lokoja. What would make a Senator risk his life by jumping out of moving vehicle?

South Africa killed Nigeria man.

Another Nigeria was set ablaze in South Africa in what look like xenophobic attack.   The reason for killing the upholsterer is unknown.  His vehicle was set on fire, he was mobbed and policemen standing by could not rescue him.  Nigerians  are not safe in South Africa  during the reign of Jacob Zuma,  now that Zuma is out and Ramaphosa is the new president the killings continue unabated.  South Africa are secured in Nigeria, nobody is hunting them down, why can't they replicate this in their country. 

True Defender of Democracy.

Senators in their numbers have been visiting Sergeant in arms who sustained injury while trying to shield the Mace from being taken away. The mace snatching drama saw many Senators scampering for safety to avoid being hit by the hoodlums that invaded hallowed chamber. These people are not ready to die for democracy,  they really value their lives. I wish the injured woman quick recovery.

Prophet Of Doom and Funke Akindele(1)

Prophet in the Holy Book are well respected, when they declared a thing it come to pass. e. g Prophet Elijah decree that rain would not fall for 3 years and it came to pass. It is true that religion is the opium of the people, modern day Prophet are not in the class of Elijah. What a prophet said about an artiste who recently lost her pregnancy that she would not give birth unless she married a gateman make me sick.  Who is the author of such prophecy?  What do we stand to gain by rejoicing in people predicament. Everything in life have it's own time, at the appointed time Funke Akindele will give birth. I pray that the Lord have mercy on the prophet.

Nigeria Project :Gani Fawenhimi a great leader.

Nigeria Project must not fail, all hands; must be on deck to salvage our father land. The country belongs to all of us,  a wise person should know that our present crop of leaders are selfish and they don't mean well for the country. I remember 80th post humours birthday of Chief Gani Fawenhimi today, this is a true leader who fought for the masses and downtrodden. He had written his name in the sand of history and posterity would not forget him. Someday we would remember individual input in the Nigeria project .

The Lazy Youths.

As a matter of factly utterances from people at the helms of affairs could spurs the youths into realising their goals.  Many youths are tagged to be lazy, the lazy youths are those who went school and would not work until they get a white collar jobs.  Politicians engage some youths to forment  trouble during electioneering while their children school abroad.  The lazy youths are those that would not collect their PVC to determine who govern them come 2019. Nigeria youths are productive and industrious, we should vote wisely in the next election, we should not be deceived by antics of political class.  Every youths that want change should participate fully in Nigeria project. 

Ghost workers in National Assembly.

EFCC would have to unravel how a nurse in the United States will also be a staff of National Assembly.  She is the wife of one of Saraki aides Bamokole Omishore.She earns 150,000 monthly as revealed by whistle blower.  Nigeria progress has become stunted because of fraud like this.  There are still many Ghost workers in all government parastatals.  You can now see why some people would not want Buhari to come back in 2019.

Money laundering :Chinese national in $300, 000 mess.

A whooping sum of $300,000 was recovered from Chinese nationals en-route Dubai.    The culprits skillfully hide the hard currency in its jacket and briefcase.  Money laundering is a criminal offence punishable under the law.  Any cash above $10,000 needs to be declared. I hope the culprits is not working for some politicians. As 2019 elections is gathering momentum, there would be so many revelations, let the court pronounce if the man is guilty or not, we awaits sound judgement. 

The MACE lives under the bridge?

The MACE represent Nigeria symbol of authority. Constitutionally before any meaningful deliberations or sitting in the hallowed chamber the Mace must be in place It was forcefully removed by some thugs led by a suspended senator. The crux of the matter is that after rigorous findings it was discovered or found under the bridge in Abuja. It is  now clear why we have parliamentarians that behave like miscreants. People who live under the bridge in some instances are miscreants. If what represent our symbol of authority is confined to a despicable place, then we have a long way to go.

Buhari remarks on Nigeria youth : Politicians crying more than the bereaved.

 It is true that President Buhari goofed when he says Nigeria youth are lazy.  It is a known fact that Nigeria youth are "hustler " describing them as lazy is a fundamental error.  Having establish this, some politicians who are desperate to occupy political positions thought they could leverage on these statements to discredit Presiden Buhari.  I do not expect them to salute the youth, all of them have the privilege one time or the other to affect the lives of these youth positively but they choose not to.  Youth of our great nation has been relegated for a very long time.Those people crying more than the bereaved are the enemy of the youth. 

Ifaki Ekiti bank robbery, one crime too many.

 Terror was unleashed on people in Offa Bank robbery incidents, many people lost their lives. Ifaki Ekiti received shocks of their lives when gang of armed robbers in commando like style overran the town,  shot and killed a mobile policeman manning a commercial bank. They were unable to access the bank but the ATM was shattered.Investigation into Offa bank robbery is still ongoing, now another one just occurred. Would this not send wrong signal to banking populace. Banks needs impenetrable  high level security to tackle perennial robbery incident.

Toddlers Defilement call for concern.

Why did some adult continue to take innocence of small children with amorous relationship.  Rape incident has been on the increase. A man was arrested for defiling an 8 year old repeatedly . A 75.year old man was caught pant down with a toddler, there is something more than meet the eye.  Paedophiles are increasing in number, parents and government have greater role to play.  Parents have the responsibility of educating their children and protect them Government should ensure speedy prosecution of suspects and long jail term for the offenders. 

A lot of Nigeria youth are not lazy, President Buhari goofed.

A lot of Nigeria youth are lazy, they want free health insurance services because Nigeria is rich in oil. These are some of the words credited to President Buhari in UK. A lot means 80 percent if I am correct,could someone say convincingly that Nigerians youth are lazy. Nigeria youths are not lazy, President Buhari goofed. Everyday you see thousands of youths working very hard to earn decent living Mr President should retract his submission about Nigeria youth.

Open defecation reduce human dignity.

I was on the Lagos Island some couple of months ago to get some stuff. It was around 3pm, a sunning day, as we approach one of the pedestrians bridges two guys emerged from the blue, they mounted cordoned side of the bridge to openly defecate.They disregarded people that were passing and continue with their business. Open defecation is a world problem that reduce human dignity to a very large extent, open defecation could cause spread of communicable diseases like diarrhea, dysentery etc. Government all over the world especially Africa countries should build public toilets that would be well maintained for destitute. What would be the difference between human and animal if open defecation should be allow to go on.  Watch documentary on open defecation HERE

Senator dance at Dangote daughter wedding.

Purposeless leadership is the bane of our development , our representatives are clueless.The more they think they know, the more they realized they know nothing. Aside from partying and dancing at a party, is there anything these senator could do, how many bills have they passed that have direct impact on people that voted them into power. They have developed thick skin to abuse, Bill Gates took them to the cleaners when he visited Nigeria recently, are they ready to yield? Aside from dancing they know how to forcefully remove MACE which represent symbol of authority. Nigeria senators enjoying dancing, watch the VIDEO HERE   

Africa athletes got missing in Australia commonwealth games.

Australia commonwealth games have just been wrapped up, many Africa countries participated in the just concluded events. Among the participating Africa countries are Cameroon, Siera lone, Uganda and Nigeria.Africa athletes proved their worth by winning 34 gold medals. The depressing news was that 13 Africa athletes went missing, a Nigeria head coach and 2 Nigeria athletes were among sport men that ran away. What does this portends for Africa as a continent, would anyone blame these fellows for voting with their legs. Africa leaders should be ashamed of themselves.

Randy OAU Professor suspended indefinitely.

After establishing a prima-facie case against the randy professor Akindele who is demanding for sex to award marks, the professor has been suspended indefinitely. He sought to have sex with the student five times for her to be upgraded, the lady skillfully recorded their conversation which went viral. There are still many Professor Akindele in many higher institution of learning, their sin will find them out as the holy book says. Attitude is everything. LISTEN TO THEIR CONVERSATION HERE

Senate had a rowdy session as thugs stole the MACE

It is not unprecedented in Senate that mace which represent symbol of authority would be confiscated. Senator Ovie-Omo Agege is taking us back memory lane when himself and some political mercenary or if you like call them thugs snatched the mace. He was suspended recently for 90 days, now that the mace has been stolen and the senator arrested what is going to happen? Constitutionally if there is no mace there will be no plenary session, Oh! what a country. VIDEO

Kidnappers of Lekan Balogun twins have released them.

It was a cheering news for Dr Lekan Balogun an Ibadan Chief when his children were released by the kidnappers. The abductors according to Lekan Balogun collected 10m naira ransom before  they were set free. The rich also cry!  These criminal elements would not relent as long as we keep paying ransom. As far as this country is concerned, whose security is guaranteed ? Government needs to stem the tide of kidnapping by empowering the youth.

IBB may not write his biography soon.

The former military head state Ibrahim Babangida said he may not write his biography soon.  One of the reason given was that people may not read it. Why would people not read it?   May be because  he annulled June 12 presidential election.  That election in the history of this country is the freest and fairest.  Whatever we do in life we are writing our history, posterity would judge us. 

Upsurge in Crime and government role.

The best method or approach to reduce crimes and criminal tendencies to the barest minimum is to provide enabling environment. Government had approved $1 billion to fight insurgency. More than ever before Nigeria policemen are being killed like chicken.  Before a particular crime committed is being resolved, another one is being committed. Though,  there is no crime free society but it could be relatively controlled. If half of what is invested in buying arms and ammunition is invested in education and job creation, Nigeria would have been a better place. A German Engineer was abducted in Kano,  his mobile police security man was shot dead.Where do we go from here?

Police Station relatively unsafe again.

Police station has become increasingly unsafe both for policemen and   civilians that needs police intervention to settle scores in their community. The story was told of couples that dragged each other to police station in Offa to resolve family issues. They were both killed by rampaging armed robbers that invaded the police station before heading to robbed  some banks in the locality. Militants in Delta State sacked policemen from their station and freed some of their men that were detained. What is going on? These people are paid to protect the masses, it seems protecting themselves has become an issue.

Update on Danish man that killed Nigeria artiste wife and daughter.

The story of a Danish man that killed his artiste wife re-surfaced again.Postmortem investigation showed she died of trauma as a result of injury sustained on her head. It was revealed that their daughter was also poisoned by Peter Nielsen , who killed both mother and daughter in one fell swoop. I have serious doubt about Nigeria criminal justice system, what other evidences is required to convict him, justice delay is justice denied.                            

Danger of Ignoring pedestrian bridges .

Nigerians are good people, but some Nigerisns are naturally undispline people . Government constructed pedestrian bridges iacross some busy roads in Lagos to prevents casualty. Barriers are erected on some of these roads to prevent pedestrian from dashing across the roads.  Rather than using the pedestrian facility, some individual would risk their lives by crossing the busy express road.  At times, government display incompetence in siting some of these bridges. There are major roads that needed pedestrian bridges,you would hardly find any there e.g Apapa Oshodi express way have very few pedestrian bridges.  Government should build  more pedestrian bridges along this axis to reduce carnage that emanated as a result of people crossing the road.  People who ignore pedestrian bridges risk their lives and they could be knocked down by oncoming vehicles. 

Fayemi threatened to jail Fayose if voted as the next governor.

The erstwhile governor of Ekiti State and current Minister of steel Kayode Fayemi has indicated interest to contest July 14 election in Ekiti State.  Fayemi among other things was indicted to have misappropriated some funds when he was the governor.  He did not appear before the committee set up to probe him. If voted as the next governor of the state, he threatened to jail the incumbent Ayodele Fayose. Does he have any moral obligation to utter such word?  He needs to defend the allegation levelled against him, oral defence on a campaign ground is not sufficient. Let him show documented proof that he left Ekiti on a clean state. 

If Nigeria government were wise.

A country where 70 percent of her youth are unemployed is seating on a keg of gun powder.  We churn out thousands of graduate every year from our universities and yet there is no employment for them let alone gainful one.  People who occupy political positions are selfish,  they only think about how to amass ill-gotten wealth.  The consequences of their action we can all see, an idle hands is the Devil workshop.  It is true our leaders have policemen as body guard,  will this continue after they leave office?  What about their family, some are not in the country, Would they continue to live in diaspora?  We have seen how important personality have been kidnapped in the past for ransom.  Hell was let loose when IG of police withdrew policemen that guard them.  If government were wise, effort will be geared towards job creation,  an empowered youth would jettison life of crime. 

South Africa man threw his child off from....

South Africa man threw his daughter off their shack, he was protesting against demolition of his shanties  Government agency in charge of environment rolled their caterpillar into their territory, they were to pull down some structures.  In a bid to dissuade them  he threatened to throw his daughter off the shack.  It was too late to rescue the child from being thrown off,  he threw the child but some policemen formed a wall that prevented the worst from happening.  How would you describe this kind of a thing?  How mentally stable is this fellow, the child had suddenly becomes experimental animal. 

Special anti robbery squad (S. A. R. S) too docile.

Policing is a daunting task, it becomes more challenging when government shy away from their responsibility.  Armed robbers would invade banks and operate for hours and police would wait until after they have gone before they swing into action.  70 percent of such policemen guard "very important personality. The Special anti robbery squad run after Yahoo boys because of the money they would collect from them. Where were the SARS guys when  those hoodlums invaded banks in offa Country that is serious about crime fighting would not operate the way we do here. 

Church leadership and morality:OAU Professor as case study.

The gentle man accused by his student that he wanted sex in order to boost or upgrade her mark is an elder in a church.  The church where the accused worship refused to give audience to journalist that visited the church for a chat.  Church has got nothing to do with morality, a church leader or religious leader could be morally bankrupt. The complainant had refused to show up, if the investigation ended in his favour,he must have learnt a bitter lesson. 

Adulteration and life expectancy in Nigeria.

Nigeria policemen arrested syndicate that specialises in brewing of adulterated malt drink. Some couple of years ago,  a popular milk brand was adulterated . NAFDAC has the mandate to check menace of adulteration in order to protect consumers. Some of the sachets water out there lacks NAFDAC number,  yet they are being sold to the public. No wonder life expectancy in Nigeria is very low. Government has the sole responsibility to safeguard the health of the masses.

List of Offa robbery suspects out.

Nigeria police is releasing names of suspected armed robbers that killed almost 30 people in a robbery attack in Offa. The robbery incidents cuts the picture of a terrorist attack  Twelve names have been listed and exhibit recovered from them also listed. As soon as investigation is completed and the suspects charge to court, the law should not hesitate to deal with this evil men. May be capital punishment would not be adequate to be meted out to this criminal elements.
