The move came in the aftermath of Boko Haram’s killing of 43 rice farmers in Borno State. The lawmakers who spoke bitterly over the killing decided to summon the president.   The following day, House of Representatives Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila disclosed that Buhari had agreed to address the lawmakers but that a date had not been fixed for it yet. “We have agreed on a date and he will meet with the House to address the situation. We have a fixed date but we will communicate with you. “He is a perfect democrat; he will come to the House to address members in the nearest future,” Gbajabiamila had said.

THE Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has denied that it reached an agreement with the federal government to suspend its ongoing strike on December 9, 2020. The Union insisted that contrary to insinuation to that effect, there was never an understanding with the government that it would suspend the over 9 months old action on the said date. President of ASUU, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi in a statement made available to newsmen Wednesday night, said ASUU representatives do not have the powers to suspend or call off industrial action but must follow due process which includes transmitting the outcome of negotiations to members and National Executive Council (NEC) of ASUU for further deliberations and actions. While noting that ASUU was willing to cooperate with concerned authorities to ensure suspension of the strike once the welfare and wellbeing of ASUU members and survival of public universities were sufficiently guaranteed, he said It was a needless crisis which had happened beca...

Ruffled by the momentum generated by the nomination of Pastor Yemi Osinbajo as General Mohamadu Buhari’s running mate, President Goodluck Jonathan is asking a group of Pentecostal pastors to help him avert what he fears could be an impending loss in next month’s presidential polls. Osinbajo, a prominent cleric with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, law professor and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN emerged APC’s presidential running mate last month giving President Jonathan and the ruling party, PDP, what is being described as sleepless nights, by sources. Specifically last Thursday, the President held a meeting in Abuja, with a number of Pentecostal pastors led by Bishop David Oyedepo of Winners Chapel, with the main agenda being how to fashion out ways to solve the “Osinbajo” problem. Sources at the meeting confirmed that President Jonathan confessed in a rather rattled and humbling manner that “Osinbajo is my problem.” According to those at the meeting, the President ...

Hafsat Abiola is a human rights, civil rights and democracy activist, founder of the Kudirat Initiative for Democracy (KIND), and daughter of late business man/politician, MKO Abiola. Her letter below; Dear President, As young global leaders we would like to express our deep concern about the recent situations in Nigeria. The massacre in Baga has been Boko Haram’s deadliest so far and what has it met with? Your silence. Most disturbing still is the fact that you would send a message to France condemning the killings there, yet seem unable to address the Nigerian people who look to you for leadership.  Unfortunately, it would not be the first time, On 10 November 2014 a suicide bomber killed 47 people and injured 79 others. The following day, with barely a mention of this horrific incident targetting children, you launched your re-election campaign. And despite the ease with which you move on, even you will remember the abduction of the schoolgirls in Chibok in April...

After several weeks of not returning, theytheard she w...

In Nigeria, there are three classes of people: The Masses, The Politicians, and The Rich. The masses are the puppets, the politicians the hand that controls the puppets and the rich the hand that controls the politicians. The politicians have the system totally rigged in their favour. They have made it compulsory for the masses to vote from a list selected by them knowing that as blind as the masses are, they may never realise they can actually have a choice. In the upcoming presidential election, the masses have been given no choice but to choose between two candidates forced upon them by the politicians. What if Buhari and Goodluck Jonathan are not exactly what the masses want? Are we going to have recourse when they fail as they always do, to honour their promises? There seems to be a spot in every Nigerian, a soft spot in our consciousness like the one in a baby’s head, which, if pressed or stroked in the right way, reduces us to giggling children with mouths fu...

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Bola Tinubu, has accused President Goodluck Jonathan of being insincere that he knows nothing about the 400,000 barrels of crude oil which the former Lagos State governor said was being stolen from Nigeria daily. Tinubu, who spoke at the flag-off of Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s campaign in Ibadan on Saturday, insisted that Jonathan was allegedly responsible for oil theft and that he should be removed by all Nigerians during presidential election. He said, “God will not take us back to the bad days again. We will not see PDP here again because God has chased them away. Segun Oni and Oyinlola have realised that PDP is not the right party. Leaders of the party have deceived us for too long but I did not allow them in Lagos. “In the past, Oyo was a violent state but that has disappeared and we will not go back to the dark days. APC stands for the actualisation of better future for our children. “Jonathan and his government a...

After about 10 years of hustling and bustling in the entertainment industry, Oritsefemi got his big break last year. The “Double Wahala” cronner was interviewed by Nigerian Tribune, where he talked about his relationship with D’banj. Read excerpts from the interview below: – About his relationship with Dbanj “Honestly, it was another dream that came true because D’banj is one of the leading enterprising artistes in Nigeria, who has a multinational endorsement. Right now some people have developed hatred for him.” The haters he’s referring to “I don’t know them, but I am aware that some set of people have formed a fan page disparaging D’banj. It is a hatred fan page which I don’t think is ideal. But I salute the matured mind of D’banj for demonstrating his responsibility and maturity on the development. I love his spirit, to the extent tha he never reacted to any of the issues, but has remained focused. Just as myself, I struggled so hard alongside with my manager on the street. In...

The idea of a younger woman marrying a much older man and vice versa is nothing new. In fact, the society we live in makes it very easy for older men to have very young brides, though the concept of older women getting young husbands is not very common. It is often easier for an older man married to a young to be accepted than for a mature woman with younger male partner. Discussing with some of our readers, majority said it was okay for an older man to marry a young wife but not okay for an older woman to take up a young husband. Most of the ladies said they can marry someone over 10-years older. Some said they were already married to men much older than they are and they are enjoying their marriage. The men however had a different view, saying they can’t marry an older woman because she might have hit menopause and won’ be able to give bear children. But why do younger people go for the older people. This question is one that has been pondered by many. Below...
