THE MISPLACED INDIGENOUS CULTURE ADVOCACY
06 May 2023
The reactionary advocates for a return to the past cannot rob us of that which we have given to ourselves.. We are who we are. They cannot change us into who they would rather have us be in their jaundiced imagination.

THE DRUG CURSE HOVERING OVER NIGERIA
14 Apr 2023
If you think that it is a coincidence that it is the same Buhari that wants to hand Nigeria over to a drug baron, then you do not know God. It is vengeance that is hovering over him. It is a spiritual set up.

PRESIDENT BUHARI’S TENURE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY END ON 29TH MAY 2023.
06 Apr 2023
The Government is spending so much time and effort trying to put the responsibility to keep the peace on those who feel defrauded by the declared results when plainly the responsibility for caution and maturity is clearly on the Government. They should be cautious not to throw the Constitution overboard and throw the country into anarchy by installing a President in breach of the provisions of the Constitution.

THE COURTS ARE NOT THE LAST HOPE
03 Apr 2023
This therefore is the conclusion of the matter: the last hope of democracy is the people; the last hope of the Constitution is the people; the last hope of the people is the people

AVOID THE ETHNIC WAR TRAP
19 Mar 2023
By Chuks Nwachuku Do not join them to parrot Yoruba hate of Igbo. There’s hardly anything like that. The reality is the average Yoruba love for and protection of corruption, just like you find elsewhere in Nigeria. When attacked, corruption would shout “they are after me because I’m Yoruba”. Most fall for it because […]

SANWO-OLU AND HIS DEMONS
11 Mar 2023
I do not know what Sanwo-Olu would do to placate the anger of Lagosians in the next few days. However, I certainly know what he is not doing right and that is allowing the hate speeches to continue to fill the atmosphere of Lagos. The city is just too sophisticated. It will read this again as a sign of incorrigibility and respond accordingly on election day. There are other issues that bother Lagosians. At the ATM today (which remains frustrated of cash and with the mobile banking network in limbo as usual) one elderly Yoruba man swore that he voted LP last Saturday, and swore again to make APC pay, yet again, this Saturday.

HIJAB IN SCHOOLS CONTROVERSY
28 Feb 2023
As a Christian and a lawyer, I cannot fault the judgment of the Supreme Court (SC) striking down the ban on the wearing of hijab by Muslim female students in Lagos schools. Many Christians would be shocked that my conviction is also premised on my Faith as a Christian. Many do not know that the […]

CBN AND THE SUPREME COURT
28 Feb 2023
I don’t know what the CBN intends to achieve by not allowing banks to continue to accept deposit of the old notes. I thought that would have been allowed in order to ease the burden on those who still retain the notes. The time limit given by the CBN for its own direct redemption of […]

BROKEN JUSTICE – IHEDIOHA V UZODIMMA
28 Feb 2023
I have gone through the judgment of the Supreme Court (SC) in the Ihedioha case. My humble view is that if the learned Hon. Justice Kekere-Ekun should go through the judgment a second time, she would not be proud of herself. I say so with the greatest respect and out of the very high esteem […]
