Ramaphosa Must End The Excuses And Save South Africa

No More Excuses: Ramaphosa Must Save South Africa Now!

If the term ‘crisis riddled’ were to be used to describe any country in the world right now, it would perfectly describe South Africa; and perhaps still won’t do justice to the situation.

South Africa is drowning in its problems, and there seems to be no anchor to save it. Unemployment is at an all-time high, electricity is worsening by the day, and the citizens are losing every atom of hope in the government.

Despite the implementation of the mandate of Cyril Ramaphosa’s administration, which is the Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF), there is not much progress to be accounted …

In Truth, Tinubu, Atiku, Obi Have Nothing To Offer Nigeria

In Truth, Tinubu, Atiku, Obi Have Nothing To Offer Nigeria

A fortnight ago, over 90% of the Nigerian voting electorate who went out to cast their votes in the presidential elections actually voted for the wrong persons. As awkward as this assertion will sound to Nigerians who voted for the three front-runner candidates, the truth of the matter is that none of these candidates will have offered Nigeria the drastic change she yearns for and this is something Nigerians must come to terms with if they are really desirous of quenching their problematic thirst for a Messiah. 

Only a discerning mind will fathom that all the leading candidates in the …

2023 Nigerian Youths Need To Understand Strategic Thinking

2023: Nigerian Youths Need To Understand Strategic Thinking

Emerging trends in Nigeria have shown that young people in Nigeria have finally awoken from their slumber. Rather than the outright docility and apparent lack of interest in the affair of their country, quite interestingly, many youths in Nigeria today are increasingly participating in the process of enthroning leaders and that in itself is a big step. Sadly, their inability to project tact and strategic thinking rather than emotions has become their Achilles heel. 

In the build-up to the just concluded national elections in Nigeria, many young people saw themselves, perhaps for the first time involved in the complicated world …

Is Nigeria Perpetually Under The Fulani Oligarchy?

Is Nigeria Perpetually Under The Fulani Oligarchy?

The Nigerian contraption has remained a classical case of ‘the more you look, the more you see’. As presently constituted, Nigeria is no doubt a political invention that is in urgent need of divine intervention. The unwilling union of the forcefully amalgamated southern and northern protectorates has continued to trudge on and secure validation at any major turn while shying away from the reality of Fulani control and domination.

An election cycle has just ended and a number of southerners in Nigeria are in a jubilant mood about the outcome that saw the emergence of a Yoruba man from the …

Grammy Awards Femi Kuti Deserves To Be Honoured This Year

Grammy Awards: Femi Kuti Deserves To Be Honoured This Year

For many decades, Nigerian musicians have been doing the continent proud on the international scene, smashing new grounds and winning various international awards. Despite facing the ugliest odds, they have remained undaunted in their quest for every available laurel, especially the coveted Grammy Awards; sharing the African sound with the world and expanding the reach of the Afrobeat genre. 

It is without any iota of doubt that the Nigerian entertainment industry has come of age in recent times. The Nigerian music industry, specifically, has witnessed exponential growth over the years, and this ceiling-shattering growth has introduced a rising hunger …

2023 Election: It's Time, Nigerians Start Facing Reality

2023 Election: It’s Time, Nigerians Start Facing Reality

The 2023 elections that many Nigerians have always talked about, prayed, dreamt, prophesied, hoped, and campaigned about finally came and passed over the weekend leaving most of them bruised and mentally defeated. In the aftermath, a good majority of them have resorted to prayers ignoring the fact that if prayers and good wishes were prerequisites for a prosperous country, Nigeria will be far richer than China. Indeed, they have refused to acknowledge the fact that repeated idiocy has never been known to produce different outcomes notwithstanding the frequency of attempts. 

After casting their votes on Saturday, anxious Nigerians waited patiently …

RCCG: The Virile Breeding Ground For Tribal Bigots

RCCG: The Virile Breeding Ground For Tribal Bigots

In today’s Nigerian churches, there are various pointers that could help delineate the audacity of religious hypocrisy which has already metamorphosed into a culture, perhaps it could play an important role in exposing the blatant evils, lies, and cruelty perpetrated in the name of Organised Religion in the country. 

One of the dangerous situations that many Nigerians have refused to come to terms with is the fact that contrary to the saintly apparel the church and its leaders have continued to clad themselves in, they are perhaps among the biggest sources of instability to the country who they never …
