Azubogu’s Governorship Declaration: A Clarion Call to Build a System that can Solve Her Problems (2) By Chukwudimma Aaron-Okonkwo

In his quest to further deploy the vast wealth of knowledge and experience in respect to governance which he had gained for over 10 years as a federal lawmaker to develop Anambra State, Engr Chris Emeka Azụbọgụ visited the State office of People's Democratic Party (PDP) on Friday 29th January, 2021 to officially declare his intention to contest the November 6th, 2021 Governorship elections.

Azubogu’s Governorship Declaration: A Clarion Call to Build a System that can Solve her Problems (1) By Chukwudimma Aaron-Okonkwo

Sometimes in 2012 when I was returning to Ozubulu, my hometown, construction signposts with the inscriptions: "Attracted by Chris Emeka Azubogu" stood at strategic places all the way from Nnewi to Ozubulu. The same signposts were also seen in adjoining towns of Ukpor, Amichi, etc. These projects were street electrification and road rehabilitations. Rural areas that were hitherto ugliest in darkness at nights were provided with solar powered lights for bright lights at nights. Rural roads that were hitherto impassable were rehabilitated to give rural dwellers easy passage of movement. However, knowing the usual chicanery antics of most politicians in…

5 Years In Office: How Yahaya Bello Ended Insecurity in Kogi State By Onoja Integrity

5 Years In Office: How Yahaya Bello Ended Insecurity in Kogi State By Onoja Integrity

As the clock of Governor Yahaya Bello's time in office ticks to 5 years today, it's pertinent we have a terse retrospect of the condition of Kogi State prior the coming of governor Bello and the pool of peace currently enjoyed in the state. This could, perhaps, enable us to clearly see and appreciate the direction of the new direction government in Kogi State and the embedded ability in Yahaya Bello to replicate same at the national level for Nigerians to enjoy a robust security architecture and put an end to terrorism which seems to be the greatest challenge of…

Read Text: Fulani Herdsmen: Nigeria Needs The Peace Serum of Restructuring – Atiku Abubakar

Nigeria needs to be restructured. Just look at Nigeria today. This truth is staring us in our collective faces. The current ethnic and religious clashes bedevilling Nigeria are symptoms of the disease. They themselves are not the illness. We must address the root causes of the various symptoms of insecurity Nigeria now faces. Nigeria needs peace, unity and prosperity. But all three of these virtues are dependent on Nigeria having social justice. Without justice, there cannot be cohesiveness in a multi-ethnic and multi-religious nation as Nigeria. Nigeria has foundational issues, which we have to resolve. Until we resolve those issues,…

Ikpeazu, Aba roads and the verdict of history by Ubani Dannie

Ikpeazu, Aba roads and the verdict of history by Ubani Dannie

These are some of the roads the Ikpeazu led Abia State Government has recently reconstructed and commissioned. As of truth, these roads were in terrible and heartrending conditions before the recent reconstruction. I heartily commend Gov. Ikpeazu for this achievement. In sane climes where the existence and provision of such amenities are considered and treated as settled issues, this would not be seen as anything extraordinary. But in a prismatic society such as ours where the government and, indeed, the nation state do not exist for the good of the citizenry, and where the citizens have given up on the…

SEN. ORJI UZOR KALU: The Gift of democracy to Abia North Senatorial Zone

  Best thing that happened to Abia North Senatorial Zone was electing Dr Orji Uzor Kalu to the Senate . No senator would have been able to accomplish what he has achieved in these few months despite the six months of incarceration. Thank God the Senate leadership did not listen to wailers who wanted his seat declared vacant . A seat many had occupied for longer period with next to nothing to show for it in the lives of our people. I am glad for boldly defending the Senate’s decision on the famous TVC interview , where I publicly told…

Our Banks Are Corporate PENlums

Our Banks Are Corporate PENlums

Corruption in Nigeria is a major problem which has a devastating human cost. Without doubt, corruption kills people and traps millions more in poverty. It also undermines the global economy and threatens national security, growth and progress. The largely hidden truth is that commercial banks in Nigeria play an integral role in enabling this unpatriotic act. Corrupt officials need somewhere to hide stolen money. Yet while laws and regulations apply which require banks to do a range of checks to detect the proceeds of corruption, many banks fail to uphold them. As result they are leaving the door wide open…
