''am close to the people in power because I am one of the big businessmen in Nigeria. If we have the wrong people there, then all the money I have is useless. I do not want Nigeria to become another Zimbabwe so I am concerned about the political direction of my country, because if bad and inexperienced politicians control power in Nigeria, my wealth may turn into poverty and I am not ready to become a poor man.’ -ALIKO DANGOTE.

iI forsee a situation where Nigerian youths across the country float a POLITICAL PARTY (Suggested Name: Nigeiria Youths Alliance Redemption Party, N-YARP) go into election contest with the corrupt Oldbreed politicians. I believe we are capable of defeating them since democracy is a game of numbers. Nigerian youths constitute over 60% of the country's population.

"I did not go to university but I took my high school graduation exams a year in advance and I got A's so I was clever in school. But I am lucky -- God gave me a not-so'clever face. People think I am stupid. So you can't look at me and know what is going on in my brain. I behave like a bushman. See what that has done to me. I am here,far smarter people than me are out there.".. PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO

 I love history, of all kinds, but most especially my Ijebu history, followed by Yoruba / Nigerian / African / British history. I absolutely adore and doff my gele for great folks who have walked the earth leaving indelible footprints behind. As for the royalty element, I suppose that will be my subconscious playing out without me even realising that’s how it’s seen by others..PRINCESS BIO LADEJOBI

 I do not buy into this advice as I consider it selfish and a deliberate attempt to ensure that it becomes completely unaffordable, and becomes impossible for an average Nigerian to build a house of his/her own. Yes! in China (and probably Ghana) with price control and effective housing possible the effect may not be severe on housing. Even in America where only little quantity of cement is used for housing, asphalt is still used on many of the roads. Right now a bag of cement sells for N1700.00 per bag. What will it sell for when the government joins in the demand for this commodity where the demand for the commodity far exceeds and the supply is inelastic ....JOSEPH FAGBOLA

“Nigeria is in a war situation and the entire population of Nigeria must consider itself as being in a war situation and that means the Boko Haram phenomenon should not be regarded as been limited to the Northern region alone or Borno and Yobe states... its is something that affects the entire country because these people have declared categorically that they would not  be satisfied with nothing less than not only the islamisation of Nigeria but  islamisation in their own very narrow, distorted and vicious mode; and they will not be satisfied.”...WOLE SOYINKA

 The entire system has broken down the Govt does not seem to have a clue on how to solve the mulitifaceted and multi -related socio-political problems and it is the teeming poor masses that suffer!!! which way Nigeria?...O"...OLANREWAJU OGUNNIYA.

‘’a glaring disparity in the ... living standards amongst the citizens never seen before in the history of economic and social mobility of a people anywhere in the world; such that today in Nigeria less that 2% of Nigerians own and control over 98% of the national wealth, while more than 98% of the citizens struggle daily to survive on less than 2% of the country’s resources." ..UMAR ARDO

The Spokesperson for the Nigeria Police High Command , Mr. Frank Mba, has made over-statement his comments on the alleged unprovoked attack on the Police by OMBATSE people in Nasarawa State. He got it wrong the "attack is not just on the Nigeria Police but an attack on the collective will of Nigerians". This is because the collective will of Nigerians today is that the Nigeria Police as presently constituted should be disbanded. In its place, there should be State and Local Government Police as it is the practice all over the the world. 

Of what value is the use of 300000 Police that is ill-trained, ill-equipped, poorly-motivated, insufficiently informed, manipulative, arrogant, dishonest, inefficient, ineffective incompetent and therefore very dangerous.? If the police contingent sent to arrest people doing illegal conversion of others were drawn from that neighborhood, they would know the terrain and the culture of the people by not just opening fire and killing 12 of them, first. If a Police Chief of Ekkon nationality was to handle that situation, he would have dealt with it better, as someone familiar with that terrain, than how the Commissioner of Police , Nasarawa Police Command, Mr Abayomi Akeremale, a Yoruba man with different culture and from a different back-ground , had handled it. 

While no one would defend any group of people taking laws into their own hand in retaliation of what they perceived as intrusion, their claim of killing 95 number of police in self-defense is worth being looked into’’...JOSEPH FAGBOLA
