Desperate to keep girls in school

Two weeks ago, when I was leaving Nigeria on a working visit to 3 cities in Europe and America, I imagined I would miss much of the interesting political events unravelling in the country. I was not sure to accurately capture the developments in the crisis in my state between Governor Godwin Obaseki and his predecessor in office, Adams Oshiomhole.

Lots of women would go for a rich man any day!
Have you ever wondered how those girls with no particular good jobs and no comfortable mummy and daddy live a well as they do? How they managed to buy every expensive ‘aso-ebi’ going? How they run posh SUVs, and buy real jewellery, including diamonds?

By Douglas Anele
As I stated last week, Ovie Omo-Agege and his colleagues in the Senate currently debating the so-called sexual harassment bill do not have the moral authority to do so. To begin with, most Nigerian politicians, including senators, are extremely selfish and hypocritical moral Lilliputians who habitually play to the gallery instead of focusing on good legislation and oversight functions that can contribute to national development. Second, collectively the federal lawmakers are victims of taboo morality derived from religion which, as we have seen, constitutes a formidable impediment towards the cultivation of healthy rational attitude towards s**.

Wole Olanipekun’s stature looms large at 68

THE faces of many people are yearning and asking for the mercy of God but not all the people that request for mercy receive it. This is based on what the scripture says in Exodus 33:19 “…I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion”. The above scripture is so powerful and implies that a person’s request for mercy does not guaranty his or her receipt of God’s mercy.
