The razzmatazz of the holidays are gradually fading away reality that the new year is underway sets in. After enjoying all the fun that comes with celebrating Christmas and new year, people have to go back to their normal life, work, school, trade and so on. As everyone gear up for the new year INFORMATION NIGERIA has put together the five things that are most paramount on the mind of Nigerians as the new year kicks off…

School fees: Nigerian parents know it is the time of the year when they have to pay school fees and considering how high school fees are nowadays, some people are definitely going to loose sleep over it. It is even worse given that parents would have spent a whole lot to during the festive season.

Marriage: The only prayer point on the lips of those unmarried girls this new year is “O God, do not let this year pass me by”. Single ladies, especially those already in their 30s want nothing more than to find themselves a husband, whether he is Mr. Right or Mr. Left.

Work: Now that the holidays are over, it is time to get back to work. The 8 hours at work, the traffic workers have to endure to and fro work, the waking up early and every other thing that pertains to work is back.

Rent: Some people would have to renew their rent in the first quarter of the year. Come out of making expenses, this is not the easiest of things to delve into.

Dreams: The best part of the new year for most people is the renewed zest to pursue their dreams. So a lot of Nigerians are worried about how to bring their dreams to realization this year.

What’s on your mind this new year???

ALLEGED BRIBERY OF APPEAL COURT JUDGES IN DELTA JUDGMENT: A Disservice To The Rule of Law

Deltans have expressed deep concern over troubling allegations of bribery against judges of the Delta State Governorship Appeal Court, whose judgment was recently delivered in Lagos State. In a widely circulated leaked audio, Hon. Daniel Mayuku, a senior member of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and a former three-time member of the State House of Assembly representing Warri South West constituency, can be heard making disturbing claims. Mayuku stated in the leaked audio that three days before the pronounced judgment of the Appeal court, the Delta State PDP knew that the judgment favoured Ovie Omo Agege based on facts and available evidence. They allegedly used financial inducement and blackmail to influence the change of the judgement in favour of the PDP governorship candidate, Sheriff Oborevwori, against the true picture of the case. Mayuku in the leaked audio claimed that the Court of Appeals is highly corrupt and expensive, and that the Appeal court is the only place they

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove
