If the Nigerian society could embrace and foster a system where hard work, expertise and skill are rewarded without reliance on luck, it would not only uplift people but also foster a more prosperous, inclusive society. My hope is that one day, Nigerians can pursue professional growth and personal stability without feeling that their fate […]

Dear Mr President, While at the PUNCH newspaper, my sobriquet for you was ‘Agbalagbi’. My summary of your person and style of governance, then, was like that of self-styled President, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida. You influenced almost every decision-making with pecuniary gains for those involved, making many to find their way to you. No institution […]
Outlet after outlet has quickly diagnosed Trump’s victory: it’s the economy, stupid. The Washington Post sardonically cited the Manhattan Institute’s Brian Riedl: “It turns out voters really dislike inflation.” We can expect months of haughty analysis about inflation in the United States, and probably another round of it after the 2025 Australian election, no matter […]
From Walter Sandosam Much is being said by various parties about an alleged conversation about money and possible corrupt activities involving some state assemblymen. Let’s first be clear on the provisions of the Whistleblower Protection Act 2010 (WPA) and the spirit under which it was first conceived and subsequently came to be enacted. It is […]
LILLEY UNLEASHED: Protests need to be shut down and stop glorifying Hamas leaders Source link

The dates could sometimes vary across different countries, and organizations who designate such occasions are not usually named – if they were ever official, at all. Thus far, however, there has been no harm done. At most, people have simply […]
Last month, the Pentagon automatically granted honorable discharges to 800 of the estimated 13,000 veterans who had been pushed out of the military during the 1994-2011 “don’t ask, don’t tell” era with less than fully honorable discharges. Even 13,000 is likely an undercount. In some cases, if a commander suspected homosexuality but lacked proof, the […]
(OPINION) In 1995, I published a book called “Modern-Day Miracles: How Ordinary People Experience Supernatural Acts of God.” It’s been out of print for years, so don’t worry about buying a copy. I am now, as I was then, a Pentecostal pastor in addition to being a journalist. As a Pentecostal, I already had a […]
In 2018, I was happily flying my DJI Mavic 2 Pro above a waterfall in Maui. Next to me, struggling to even get his GoPro Karma off the ground, another photographer eventually gave up. The Karma failed because it just couldn’t get the basics right. Sony’s Airpeak suffered the same fate. GoPro had actually already […]
