Oil Barrons Subsidy Cartel Names And Faces And How They Stole Nigeria's Future

The cover page report of the Nation newspaper of yesterday 16/11/2011 got it half right as to why lawyers deserted the former Speaker, Rt. Hon Dimeji Sabur Bankole. One of the firms formally representing the former number 4 citizen, MJS PARTNERS, where Dr. Yemi Oke is the Managing Partner, has also filed a N70 million Naira law suit at the High Court of Ogun State sitting in Abeokuta, to recover fees for legal

Details: Thursday, 17 November 2011; By Benjamin Obiajulu Aduba

Tomorrow November 17, 2011 Mr. Emeka Ugwuonye will provide Nigeria his greatest public service to date. He will do that from a witness stand in a Lagos court. Nigerians would see a Nigerian prosecution team, a Nigerian defense counsel team, and a Nigerian judge in action. It probably will not reach the drama of what would happen if Bola Ige’s killers were to be found and put on trial. But this would give us a pre view.

Details: Wednesday, 16 November 2011; By Osita Ebiem

In the recently released Walter Isaacson’s biography of Steve Jobs it was revealed that Jobs became an agnostic and stopped going to church, felt disappointed in Christians after seeing what happened in Biafra and how the so-called Christian nations handled the sordid Nigerian Genocide in Biafra. For some people Jobs’ reaction comes out as extreme to even a most abhorrent and horrifying incident such as the Biafran

Wise decision by the wise Achebe

Details: Tuesday, 15 November 2011; By Obong Umana

Tell Jonathan, tell Reuben Abati: so long as Jonathan recognizes tyrants like Godswill Obot Akpabio (who today by the grace of God, the Supreme Court of Nigeria remitted electoral infractions allegation, back to Uyo Electoral Tribunal, for trial on merits), then he, Jonathan, does not demonstrate an understanding of the core concerns that constitute the basis for Professor Chinua Achebe's rejection of his dubious award.

Details: Tuesday, 15 November 2011; By Ogbuefi Blogs

Bayelsa Governor Timipre Sylva’s fate appears to have been SEALED! PDP to him: [1] You can’t join another party!

Expectedly, the plan by the Federal Government of Nigeria to remove the subsidy on petroleum products with effect from 1st January, 2012, has generated heated debate and stiff opposition from many Nigerians.
