Youth not Oil

'Youth not oil is Nigeria’s most valuable resource', but sadly enough down South some politicians will arm youths for selfish purposes, up North religious bigots will also arm youths to propagate their own doctrine of terror. What we have is countless number of young Nigerians dieing at the end of the day, while these old and never changing evil men still enjoy more than the perks of political or religious power.

I used to be quite confident that the average educated Nigerian youth both north and south know better not to fall into the hands of Politician, or Religious bigot. But lately on most online forum or offline discuss where one will want to believe you can find very enlighten and objective views from youthful Nigerians, the reverse is mostly the case on most topics or tread you read or listen to concerning events or happenings in Nigeria.

If indeed 'Youths and not Oil is Nigeria’s most valuable resource' then its time the Nigerian youth wake up and stand for objectivity, leave tribal and religious bias alone , and be aware and ready to challenge politicians, religious leaders, etc when they start wiping ethnic or religious sentiments to favour their personal greed.

For me this is what I preach to my circle of influence

Its A Matter of Cash

On the 20th of Jan 2009, i watched on as million and millions of Americans all celebrated one thing HOPE!, and change that lies in horizon, and from my room I wondered will our home land Nigeria ever have something to celebrate about, even if its just change, a change in the right direction. Below is an article written in response to CNN's NIGER DELTA, Planet in Peril,  by a friend of mine,  Comfort Olubo Umaru  a lawyer based in Abuja Nigeria. IT’S A MATTER OF CASH. by  Comfort Olubo Umaru As an avid reader, a former resident of the area and concerned citizen, it would be remiss of me not to start any discussion on the Nigerian Niger Delta with one name. Kenule Saro Wiwa. As a child my favorite TV show was Bassey and Co. This was a screen adaptation of plays written by Ken Saro Wiwa. It was about a wise cracking young man called Bassey and his friend Alale and their varied antics. The show was all about their varied attempts to ev...

2023 into 2024 God's Goodness

2023 it is ending and Thank God, it's NOT the End. Am grateful for the year, goods immeasurable grace and mercies on me. Am trying to reminisce 2023 in my mind's eye as far back as I can possibly remember.  I started the year slowly focused and knowing the things I needed to get done at least for the first quarter. In hindsight now I can say it all worked out really well, at least until it all went crazy.  The national elections came, and I fought, I voted and hoped for a better government to take over at the national level, yet it was stolen right before our very eyes both at the state and national levels.  On a very deep level this crushed hope, that flicker of hope that Nigeria as a country would turn a corner for good this time. Unfortunately not only that the elections was  stolen but it was done in the most brazen, crude and evil manner.  Every institution of state was and is now captured by a thieving political establishment.  It's taken some time bu...
