Adichie, Abba And The Flagrant Abuse Of Igbo Culture

Adichie, Abba And The Flagrant Abuse Of Igbo Culture

January 9, 2023 2:46 am

One truth anyone with a working conscience will agree with is that over the years, the cultural values of Ndigbo have been badly eroded and are perhaps facing one of its most potent attacks in history. Now and again, there is a strong urge from powerful forces to adulterate, misinterpret and abuse the Igbo culture on the altar of political correctness, shrewdness, and the desire to prove needless points.

Many people who are supposedly expected to be fairly knowledgeable as far as Igbo culture and traditions are concerned have often hidden under the guise of civilisation and development to carry …

The High Profile Fraud Existing In Nigerian Civil Service

The High Profile Fraud Existing In Nigerian Civil Service

January 5, 2023 3:19 am

Like a sinking ship, the Nigerian state is fast deteriorating and zooming on a fast lane to the precipice. Politicians have been sufficiently blamed for this damning situation, however, not many people have fully recognised the fact that the ruin wouldn’t have assumed such magnitudes without some active collaboration with civil servants in the country.

The Nigerian civil service has over the years grown to become the engine of corruption in the country. A trip to any government establishment be it ministry, agency, or parastatal in Nigeria at Federal, State, and Local government levels will expose one to the depth …

Raheem's Killing: When Will The Animalistic Behaviour Stop?

Raheem’s Killing: When Will The Animalistic Behaviour Stop?

January 5, 2023 3:14 am

Having a deep reflection on the state of Nigeria and the quality of its leadership, the tiny hopes that many Nigerians haboured that the October 2020 #EndSARS protests would see to the end of extrajudicial killing and other atrocities by security operatives have finally been shattered. Evidently, it appears the rotten eggs in the police force were restrained only for a while before resuming their atrocious ways. This time, their barbarism appears to be on steroids.

Poor Omobolanle Raheem was only the latest among hundreds of victims venturing out of their homes on lawful trips but never returning alive after …

Why The World Must Condemn Taliban’s Unfair War On Women

Why The World Must Condemn Taliban’s Unfair War On Women

January 2, 2023 3:31 am

Just like Leopards are never known to possess the ability to change the indelible spots on their skins, the Islamic extremist group that runs Afghanistan known as the Taliban will struggle to eternity to stop itself from manifesting its true, ugly, and wicked colours through its actions.

A fortnight ago, the group added another absurdity to their long list of atrocities against humanity. This time, women were their victims and as usual, they had zero apologies.

The Taliban has taken another stride in its war against women with its recent ban which prevents women from attending universities, and also from …

Nollywood And It's Poor Interpretation Of African Culture

Nollywood And It’s Poor Interpretation Of African Culture

January 2, 2023 3:25 am

Storytelling is easily the most powerful way to put ideas into the world. All over the world, people are increasingly becoming quite conscious of the kind of stories they allow people to read or watch about them because they clearly understand that telling good stories is a very vital component of marketing. The Nigerian film industry which is captured under the big umbrella called Nollywood which is supposed to be perhaps one of Nigeria’s biggest PR and marketing units appears to be doing the exact opposite.

Ever since Nollywood was officially birthed in 1992 with the production of Living in …

African Leaders Should Be Prevented From Medical Tourism

African Leaders Should Be Prevented From Medical Tourism

January 2, 2023 3:21 am

African countries share quite a lot of similarities both good and ugly. Across the continent, there exists, a shared pattern of social, economic, and cultural practices which exemplifies a lot of positive similarities. On the flip side, there is also a shared pattern of stunted development often fueled by very poor political behaviour across the continent. On average, however, governance failure, endemic corruption, weak institutions, and very horrible governance seem to be common denominators in Africa and this has only culminated to hold the continent down while others are making headway.

The healthcare system in Africa is a sad example …
