“I did 200metres rope climbing to the top of a platform once. It was suicidal. When the boys heard that the Governor-General had arrived, they stopped what they were doing. How many have I not done? You don’t pay ransom – ransom for what?  They released the hostages.  What makes you think that you are more Niger Deltan than me?. ..more>>>

Death, Where is thy Fang?
DR. OLUSEGUN FAKOYA, London, UK - I woke up all melancholic this morning. I could feel it in the air, the tangible but indecipherable presence. Everything looks gloomy, the weather humid and uncomfortable and the sun refusing to come out of its covering cloud. Familiar tunes coming out of the radio failed to make an impression. I could feel it in my body and.....more>>>

Corruption, Causes & Remedies
CHRIS ODETUNDE, Ph.D, Houston, TX - Corruption comes in different forms. It can be in the form of committing crime and when the law catches up with the culprit, the accused flashes the tribal, the religious, the Sh’aria or I am not the only one card. These corrupt citizens even use God as an accomplice after their hands are cut in the cookie jar. Corruption can....more>>>

Saboteurs of Our Economy
IMOHIMI UDUIGWOME AIRENEVBOISE,  New Nigerian Politics - During the era of the cold war the Russian government had what was known as “sleepers” or moles planted in western nations like the United States of America. These were Russian agents or spies who were sent or recruited in America with the aim of working in a clandestine manner for the Russian government. The beauty in this was that these agents will be left to operate a normal life thereby integrating ....more>>>

Dear Mrs. Adebayo
BANKOLE OKUWA, Ph.D, New Nigerian Politics - Dear Mrs. Adebayo, I am sorry about your situation in Ekiti as the Resident Electoral Commissioner.

Pervasive Kidnapping in Nigeria: Symptom of a Failing State?
DR. JIDEOFOR ADIBE, London, UK - Kidnapping, the taking away of a person against the person's will, usually for ransom or in furtherance of another crime, is becoming everyone’s nightmare in our dear country.

Why You are a Nigerian
DR. OLUSEGUN FAKOYA, London, UK - Just some random musing. What determines where a person is born, the type of parents one has and the country where one is born to? Is there any possible rational explanation for the nationality one comes from? Is there any reasoning to the selection of people in a country or even, continent? Why was one man born an American and another...more>>>

LEBURAH GANAGO,  Atlanta, USA -  The role of Shell in the genocide committed in Ogoni , Nigeria, has been well documented over the years.
