Biafra-Nigeria War: 50 Years, short Distance Not Travelled

January 23, 2020 3:26 pm

Oyegun has been a top bureaucrat, having retired as a federal permanent secretary. Perhaps, feeling too young to be “tired,” Oyegun punted for politics and succeeded. He was elected governor of his Edo home state. After that, Oyegun, eternally energetic, turned up a party lord and apparatchik. Along the way, however, his worst enemies successfully triggered a coup. Oyegun was sacked unceremoniously as party chieftain. In other words, if there is any Nigerian who has seen it all, …

The South-South Elders’ Forum has declared that the 2023 presidency should be ceded to the zone to avert crisis.

Speaking to NAN, he claimed that South-East was agitating for Biafra

November 15, 2019 2:59 am

To become the president of Nigeria, a presidential candidate must battle for power and be bruised, bat- tered and bloodied in the political trenches for power. The global advance of democracy and its peaceful transfer of power, through the ballot box, made obso- lete Mao Tse Tung’s maxim that “power flows from the barrel of the gun”, but still, the struggle for power is no mean feat; it remains incredibly excruciating. Power is elusive; it eludes many that desire it because, “it takes a unique kind of man to win the struggle for power”. It is only the gritty, resilient …
