NIGERIA THE LAND OF DREAMS

Nigeria, a country once flowing with milk and honey. A land of dreams. The pride of Africa. What could have brought you to this level. You are a shadow of your former self.
Your founding fathers had great dreams for you. Your planners had such high hopes for you.


Political Instability and lack of visionary leadership has reduced you to a height where you cannot stand among tall nations.
Your vast natural and human resources are enough to make you great, why then haven't you embraced greatness?

Your people are resourceful,hardworking and intelligent. O Nigeria convert your potential and opportunities to gain.

Let the little children run with these vision. Let them be united in their fight for prosperity. Equip the upcoming generation. Let the older ones lead the way.
And maybe just maybe we would arrive all at once to our glorious destiny.

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 ...
