Nigeria: Endless Diseases and Bitter Pills

The next government is going to be a very unpopular one. There is no scenario where the government that succeeds the Buhari administration will be popular. If the government turns out to be mediocre, well, it’d easily become even less popular than its popularity at inauguration. If it goes on…

Above and Beyond the Presidency

It has been said that Nigerians, at least at one time, were the happiest people in the world. Whilst you could argue against that at any point in time, you would find it a lot harder arguing against us being the most hopeful people. Hope is the dust our streets…

Wanted Man: The Curious Case of EFCC and Francis Uju Adoms

If you depend on Google like many people do, you would be made to believe that Dr. Francis Uju Adoms had disappeared into thin air, seeing as he was declared wanted by Interpol — thanks to the effort of Chive GPS and others. But whilst some depend solely on the…

Move like Help Is Not on the Way!
