Ezinne Rose Ogonna Uzoegbu Uzoma( Nee Onuoha) That she lived the first amongst equals is not in doubt. That she lived a fulfilled life needs no confirmation from the Oracles.

Infact, the earth will confirm that a virtuous and enterprising woman passed through it in essence and as a co-worker with God in the Miracle Work of making mankind by way of procriation. What a Grace! By Devine connection IJELE NWANYI became my…

Critics point to what they see as an unprecedented concentration of power around the presidency. They argue that key state institutions responsible for elections, security, and adjudication are headed by officials…

By John Egbeazien Oshodi A Nation Watching in Psychological Silence Nigeria has entered a strange psychological space. People are not merely listening to political speeches; they are studying body language, tone, and authority. They watch a sitting minister, Nyesom Wike, speak with a level of confidence that does not resemble submission to higher authority. They see him warning party officials, lecturing senior political figures, and behaving as though his voice carries immunity. What shocks people most is not that a politician is bold. Nigerian politics has always had bold personalities.…
