AN OPEN LETTER TO DANGOTE ON THE TOMATO CRISES

Dear Dangote,
Reports have it that you are the reason why there is scarcity of tomatoes and in turn highly expensive tomatoes in the market.

I do not know if this is true or not but if it is i would like to tell you what i think of it.
People who know you say you are a shrewd businessman but their is a difference between being shrewd and being selfish.

You cannot hold an entire nation to ransom because of your tomato factory especially since the products will be used mainly for exports and the proceeds coming to you only.
You must leave some tomatoes for the open market.

Here's wishing you luck as you expand your business and join the list of producers exporting products to other countries and making Nigeria a producing nation.
We love you but think of us as well.
Ukwuoma.

And what is democratic about a president who has refused to listen to the cries of the people?In their short memory however, they have forgotten that this same president came into power for the first time in 1985 after a coup...

THE GAINS AND LOSSES OF THE ABSENCE OF MR PRESIDENT: BY UWAKWE ROLAND.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been absent from duty since the last few months on a purported medical checkup in London. Good a thing he legally transferred power to the Vice President who is now the acting President, this is unlike the imbroglio that played out during Yar’adua’s time when the National Assembly had to invoke the doctrine of necessity so as to effectively transfer power to then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan. The problem is that even as an acting President, Yemi Osinbanjo has limited powers to fully assume responsibility as the commander in chief, this is because most of the big government functionaries may still owe their loyalty to Mr President, couple with this, Buhari appointed people of his like minds who may not comfortably work with the acting President that will want to bring his knowledge of law and practice into governance. Hence the long absence of Mr President may eventually result to a slow down of democratic dividends. The above ...
