It is a sad one. No one should go through this harrowing experience. I hope he gets the compensation he deserves and finds a deserving closure from all of this.
@tolus, congratulations on your Pulitzer award and for being a finalist in the biography category. Super proud of you. Can't wait to read the book. May George Floyd's soul continue to prick the conscience of the American nation till racial equality is achieved.
Onyema Nwelu would still have been great without the criminal embellishment of his accomplishments. He wanted stardom badly. But rather than wait for his time in the sun ended up fattening his little gains to make him look like a giant. So sad!
The 'obidient movement' was/is truly an organic movement. It showed its massive penetrating power in the 25th Feb election leveraging religion, mass discontentment with the ruling party and the boisterous energy of the youth.
Someone who is voting for a candidate because he shares the same religion as him is no different from the man who is voting for someone who shares the same tribe or class as him. It's all about identity politics.
Americans are as polarised as Nigerians across partisan lines. But the American media and political commentary establishment are much more polarised than their Nigerian counterparts.
#Pele was truly a knight of socially acceptable behaviour. Despite his global celebrity status as an iconic footballer and gentleman, he eschewed scandals and avoided controversies. RIP, legend!
Pele was a truly beautiful man. A complete embodiment of an African man in his resplendent glory. He realised his global reputation early enough and worked hard to keep the demons that usually assault geniuses at bay by keeping himself away from significant scandals.
