Until Nigeria gets leaders who have the cultivated the spirit of leadership in them, and men of vision, we still have a long way to go.

ABUJA: President Muhammadu Buhari has fired back at the United States President, Donald Trump over alleged claims by the American leader referring to the Nigerian president as “lifeless”. President Buhari an President Donald Trump The reaction which came through the Buhari Media Organisation BMO was in response to Monday’s report by the Financial Times that the American President had made disrespectful comments imputing ill health on President Buhari. “President Muhammadu Buhari is fit and capable to run for the 2019 elections and oversee the affairs of the country for four more years President Donald Trump’s hate speech notwithstanding”, the group said. The BMO in the statement signed by Niyi Akinsiju and Cassidy Maduekwe, its Chairman and Secretary respectively, noted that this was not the first time the US President was heard to make such derogatory remarks at World leaders, and thus President Buhari would not be distracted by such. “We are aware that President Trump’s disrespe

ABUJA – VICE President Yemi Osinbajo has said that the problem of Nigeria was not geographical restructuring rather prudent management of national resources and providing for the people properly. Osinbajo also said prudent management of the nation’s resources and the provision of essential needs of the people were better ways of addressing Nigeria’s development challenges. The Vice President stated this while fielding questions from a cross-section of Nigerians at a town hall meeting in Minnesota, the United States of America, Sunday. According to him, “the problem with our country is not a matter of restructuring and we must not allow ourselves to be drawn into the argument that our problems stem from some geographical restructuring. It is about managing resources properly and providing for the people properly, that is what it is all about. “I served for eight years as Attorney General in Lagos State and one of the chief issues that we fought for in Lagos state was what you

WOMEN AND HOW THEY SHOULD ACT     A woman is a compliment of a man created out of men and endowed with the gift of making men and the society complete and whole. The woman though less in physical strength, has the ability to make weak men and society strong and even the strongest, they are bestowed with the gift of life by God. The woman gives life to dying men, community, country and the world at large. We are the most beautiful creature of God and without us in the world, the world will be a very boring place A man who is completely without a woman knows that something is missing in his life. The only reason why the worth of a woman is not recognized in the world is because the woman has not even acknowledged her worth and gift yet. "If I have power and I don't acknowledge it or am ignorant of it, the power cannot manifest and people will also be ignorant of it. The first step women should take in knowing how they should act include; ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF WHO WE ARE:    

recently proposed that Nigerian graduates should not be allowed into the labour market as soon as they graduate but should be given a year to earn a skill because of their unemployable qualification. My question is, ‘what have they been doing since primary school? Why should educational institution be less proud in the graduates they produced?’ A joke has been told about a professor that confessed he was certain that the aeroplane produced by his students will not move. Can that joke be applied to our reality? I think we have trust issues here. As a lecturer, do you trust yourself and what you have taught and also your students application of your passed down knowledge? Then, as a student, do you even trust what your teachers and lecturers teach you and your own application capacity. The truth is, this is a critical matter and to tackle it, we have to look at it in all sense of constructive criticism, devoid of sentiments and oblivious of whose ox is gored. To begin within, the ed

Our security agencies who are meant to secure the lives and properties of the citizens in the country have turned into legal criminals who assault and abuse innocent citizens who do not know their right with weapons. They kill innocent individuals when they feel like and our government keeps quiet over it and has turned deaf ears to the complaints of the citizens. The security agencies especially the police force instead of helping to curb corruption and protect the lives and properties of the citizens in the country, they align with criminals and armed robbers and sometimes, they supply them weapons of operation. They also cause nuisance on the roads by stopping cars unnecessarily to collect money from them instead of ensuring that drivers are with their complete particulars and papers which shows the authenticity of their ownership of the vehicle and their driving qualification. They go as far as abusing and assaulting those anyone who refuses to give them the money they require

The question can Nigeria be made better is a question in the lips of most matured Nigerians. And Yes, Nigeria can be made better than it is now. Nigeria is a country blessed with lots of mineral resources and talented citizens but bad governance and ignorance has dealt with it and rendered it impotent. The major arms causing or leading to the failure of Nigeria includes; • THE POLITICAL ARM OF GOVERNMENT; The political arm of government which comprises of the federal, state and local government has failed the whole nation and so, we need ‘New generations of political leaders to take charge of the political sector of Nigeria. Those who will go miles to ensure Nigeria becomes better. Let us start from the president who is the number one citizen of the country; Until we get a leader who is bent on seeing Nigeria progress not one with a selfish reason and one who values religion over the life of the people he swore to protect, we cannot go forward. Nigeria has gotten to a level wher

A family can be defined as a group of people who are related either by blood or by adoption. The family as we know, is a basic unit of people, made up of the father, mother, children and most times other relatives. It is the primary unit of socialization which mostly starts to occur between the mother and child during breastfeeding. The child is first of all, introduced to the early association and training at home before he or she is exposed to the societal influence at a later age. This means that the early training a child receives is very essential to his/her moral upbringing and when that is hindered or not applied effectively, it affects the child in the later age. With the above write up, I urge, challenge and encourage every family and parents to endeavour to give their children the necessary training they are required of. This is because, when we train up our child in the way he should be, when he is old, he won’t depart from it. If our parents train us up in the proper w
