AN ENIGMA, A GHOST AT BEST

  • We do not know his real name, we know the name he bears is adopted. He has neither denied this nor say it is the truth.
  • We do not know who his parents were.... we know the famous Iyalode of Eko was not his biological mother....
  • We do not know a single member of his extended family
  • We do know which schools he attended ... the one he submitted was not founded when he claimed he attended the school.. meaning, he used Oluwole certificate to gain admission to the College in the U.S. It is best to imagine the implication of this for future prospective Nigerian student into foreign university….
  • We do not know his real age because there are conflicting information on official documents
  • We do not know his real state of origin... we know he claims one but we know he is connected to another because his nephew was installed as a governor in one.....


His whole life is shrouded in misery and full of all kinds of questions. It reminds me of college politics when people with all kind of background scheme to grab power of the student union government at all cost..

I do not know how you can put a lipstick on a pig and call it beautiful... a pig is a pig, it will go back to the mud. You can dress him up today and curtail him, when no one is looking, he would go back to the mud. We have started seeing the signs.... insensitive spending of borrowed money for palliative that they share one 10 kg bag of rice for 147 households (check, that 10 kg will be more expensive than 50 kg bag),... gross abuse of the power and use of apparatus of government to torment and witch hunt political enemies, irrational decisions that have upended the lives of ordinary Nigerians, we see haphazard appointments across board - inexperienced minors being placed in sensitive positions and nepotism in appointment that shows as if public office is now the right of some families where you see two or three generations being appointed to the same public office. We see the same old culture where it is difficult to differentiate facts from tricks.... when obvious evidence that could shake our political direction was trashed on the ground of technicalities and one of their own came out to lampoon the justices for corruption .... and you see ordinary Nigerians who bear the most burden of failed state and unscrupulous activities of the political class come out to castigate a perennial politician who confessed to a life-style of stealing by politicians – just his conscience was pricking him. Aja tio o s’onu, ko ni gbo fere olode… A dog that will get lost in the jungle will not hear the whistling of its owner.

This is Cacophony at Best...

MAGA destroyed DEI but they want to implement DEI at Harvard... They claim the school is not diverse enough. They have too many liberals, so they need to hire more conservative, whether they meet the hiring requirement or survive the rigor of delivering excellence at Harvard or not. This is what they claim DEI is all about - hiring people based on race, they claim, but they have no issue telling Harvard to hire based on political ideology.... You read the same thing about BLM and Antisemitism. They say BLM reflects poorly on the history of America... Critical race theory is false history... slaves loved being in captivity, they loved their masters and served willingly... there is no more discrimination based on the color of your skin in America - but all the metrics point in the opposite direction... Jewish Lives Matter; Black Lives Matter, and Palestinian Lives Matter... All Lives Matter. A terrorist life should not be equal to 20 innocent Palestinian life... It is okay to forget abou...

Until Ordinary Nigerians Seize the Power that Belongs to them, There Will Not Be Progress in That Country

  Until Ordinary Nigerians Seize the Power that Belongs to them, There Will Not Be Progress in That Country When I see the shameful drama unfolding in the Senate in Nigeria, I see impunity. When those who are supposedly elected into political offices are abusing the power they hold in trust for the rest of us in daylight, then you know they have no fear of the electorate... The Senate President in Nigeria, Akpabio, forced a motion that obviously failed, down the throat of his colleagues... The motion was to humiliate Senator Natasha and force her to apologize for daring to accuse Akpabio of alleged sexual harassment before she is re-admitted to the senate after serving the unlawful six-month suspension imposed on her. What saddens me the most are the fellow female senators who have either kept quiet or have reprimanded Senator Natasha for speaking out, including the wife of the president, Remi Tinubu, who faced many sexist comments and threats when she was a senator. Remi Tinubu wa...
