The current state of affairs in Nigeria, particularly the recent developments in Osun State, demands the urgent intervention of all lovers of democracy. It is deeply disheartening that a serving minister, within a democratic dispensation, is attempting to sow confusion and instigate the destruction of properties in Osun State. On Saturday, Oyetola and his team in Osun convened a meeting where they made a unilateral decision to forcefully seize control of the Osun Local Government administration. This move was made without any legal backing or court order, raising serious concerns about the disregard for due process and the rule of…

This vivid imagery serves as a metaphor for those who, despite having achieved or acquired something substantial, remain preoccupied with trivial pursuits. It highlights the irony and the often-misplaced focus in human endeavors, reminding us to recognize and appreciate the significance of our accomplishments rather than becoming ensnared by the minutiae. The House of Representatives has made a name for itself as…
By Shamsudeen Aminu Yesterday, I flew with a foreigner from Abuja to London. He said for the first time he slept on board a flight from Nigeria.

By Ismail Omipidan I have always been told about the Osun Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) crude method of doing things. I never believed all the stories told me until I began to see them manifest in the way they run government, treat people with disdain and carry on as if there is no law in place to moderate their actions and excesses. When the progressives took over in 2010, PDP elected Local Government officials were in place. In spite of the fact that the Action Congress (AC), as it was then known, had challenged the conduct of the election, the…
