Yesterday defenders of democracy, today's destroyers, What a shame.
What an irony of history, that the acclaimed defenders of democracy and human rights who claimed to have fought for democracy during the era of General Sani Abacha now find themselves worse than the man they opposed.
Today, General Sani Abacha, once presumed face of oppression, will be remembered as seemingly more democratic and more respectful of human rights than the so-called champions of activism from the NADECO days. Power indeed reveals character.

People who argue that we should return to African traditions before the arrival of Christianity often overlook the fact that their current sense of morality has already been shaped by Christian influence. In doing so, they take for granted the extent of human wickedness, largely because they are unaware of what many societies were like before Christianity took root.

I paid to collect my ATM card. Everytime I use the card, I still have to pay for charges. The card is in my possession at owners’s risk because if I lose it, the bank will charge me for replacement.
Yet, I regularly get debited card maintenance. What are you maintaining?
I don't care if Allah means "god" in Arabic.
Allah is NOT the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Jesus the Messiah is God and the Second Person of the Trinity!
Nice try though.😇

When I learned OOP, every book used Dog, Cat, and Animal classes.
I thought: "Classes must model real-world objects."
Later, I saw code with classes like:
› AuthenticationHandler
› DataSerializer
› CacheManager
Eureka!
Classes aren't just mirrors of reality—they're abstractions for organizing logic.
Real code rarely deals with Dogs and Cats unless you're building vet clinic software.

Its a WAR to build a strong and positive culture. Singaporeans today will find it hard to believe their grand parents acted like animals.
Culture is not inherent, it is engineered by intention or by neglect
The Poor Must Not Be Punished While the Powerful Walk Free
Yesterday, I sincerely apologised to Ibom Air and its crew for the unacceptable conduct of one of their passengers.
This morning, I woke up to learn that the passenger, the young Ms. Comfort Emmanson in her twenties, has been banned from flying for life—once again showing how our system works, proving the truth of Anacharsis’ words that “the law is like a spider’s web: it catches the weak, while the powerful break through with ease.”
There is everything systemically
Wrong and unjust about this authoritarian decision. What due process was followed over night leading to this sanction? Have we exhausted the avenues of justice and compassionate resolution on this matter?
It is a tragic irony that a young lady in her twenties can be banned for life, while we—her parents —commit worse crimes against humanity and are celebrated; those in positions of authority perpetrate far greater offences that harm the nation deeply, yet move freely in comfort, shielded from consequences, and in Ms. Emmanson’s case, the authorities acted with lightning speed, but the same urgency is absent when dealing with the influential and politically connected.
If this young woman, who indeed acted wrongly, now seeks to apologise, who will hear her cry in a country where the pain of the poor is invisible and the dignity of the less privileged is often disregarded? Justice must be consistent, or it becomes oppression in disguise.
This must change. Justice must be equal for all. There must be room for compassion, for rehabilitation, and for understanding when misconduct stems from frustration or displaced aggression. Power must never determine who is punished and who is pardoned.
May God heal our land.

Nigeria is a bottom barrel society when it comes to culture.
Our culture sucks.
Our respect is Hypocrisy.
We don't value lives.
We despise children and the poor.
We honour old fools and respect lying leaders.
The young people are never considered.
