There is one big lamentation. Who will make this possible? The present crop of legislators in the country CANNOT make it

Let no one however delude themselves that if there is a coup anywhere that the so-called Western Powers will intervene. False! More coups across the globe had been engineered and financed and in some cases militarily assisted by the so-called Western Powers namely the notorious USA, the mindless Britain and the usually confused France
It is hoped that Osinbajo will succeed in this thankless painting job. And if my assessment of Osinbajo is anything to go by, the intellectual giant is likely to reconstruct the entire building, make it solid and enduring before quitting the stage
The greatest blow to the unity of the so-called North is the brutal and brutish barbarism of the Fulani herdsmen whose madness does not have rhyme or rhythm
There are two things that require immediate action if the serious predicament of the Nigeria Police is to be resolved. The first is the immediate decentralisation of the Force
If decent people who lived clean and honest lives are hardly remembered despite their huge accomplishments how much less you roguish politicians and dare devil robbers and kidnappers who are hiding billions of stolen money? You will die, perish, and be remembered only with the stench associated with your villainous name!!
Abuja must act today, and treat the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association, the umbrella body of Fulani herdsmen, as just an Association. A business group like any other trade group, which should not be allowed to indulge in criminal activities
Unfortunately for those who may be foolishly contemplating that they would use force to stop the breakup, there is no longer the kind of Military that fought the Biafrans and stopped the secession
It is duplicity. That is the name of the game. The game of self survival.

The dead in Nigeria would be looking back on their surviving relations and friends and thank their stars that despite the fact they did not live long, they still remain a subject of envy
Those who killed Gentleman, the-best-of-them-all, Mr. Golden Voice Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, because of the alleged ‘10 per-centers’ in his government, left Nigeria worse than they met it. People who thought the death of General Sani Abacha would bring an Eldorado to Nigeria are now witnesses to a much worse Nigeria than in the Abacha era!
Let soldiers face their constitutionally defined role. They should not be a cranky substitute for Fulani herdsmen
For now let our president be a Visionary leader and a Man who will make history
Let me declare from the outset that the peoples of the Fulani Colony erroneously called Nigeria shall no longer keep quiet in the face of political strangulation. Peoples of this God-given territory which had existed before the great great grandfather of Lugard was born; existed long before any Fulani man ever set his foot on this generously fertile land; even long before the Anglo-Saxons survived their invasion by the barbarians; long before any country called Great or small Britain evolved are prepared more than ever before to fight for their freedom and emancipation
But let me quickly add that all those who have not been able to pay salaries, with the exception of the ‘federal ’government are hereby discharged and acquitted. Their only offence is that they have not demonstrated sufficient political will to exterminate the UNITARY government hoisted on the Nigerian territory of which they are a strong component
Nigeria, if ever there is a country so called, has been bedevilled with various maladies chief of which are lack of patriotism and nationalism, ethnic jingoism, political prostitution, greed and selfishness, nepotism, mediocrity, brigandage, and lately severe insecurity, stupendous corruption and embarrassing loss of values. There are many more
Anybody who runs the government of Nigeria from Abuja will be stealing and plundering the resources of the country because Abuja doesn’t belong to anybody
Mothers are unique. They are specially equipped with the knowledge, art and act of caring and nurturing. They are indispensable in the home. Mothers look after their children, their husbands, their grand children, their parents and of course their parents in-law if and when such in-laws create an enabling environment
The National Question must be answered and resolved once and for all if this country must have peace
In Yoruba mythology, the head is accorded the same veneration as a deity. After the Creator known by over a million names including Olodumare, Adiitu the Inscrutable, the Supreme Intelligence, the Owner of all creations, the Self Manifest, Ori, the head is the next most important.
