CORONAVIRUS: Time To Make Positive Change Or Perish?


Today it has been officially reported that the de facto president of Nigeria, Abba Kyari has contracted the virus. Another top government official has already passed away. May his soul rest in peace. Atiku's son has the virus, the estate he resides in Abuja is under quarantine and me and you can guess the class of people that live there.
Gradually this virus is exposing the country. For 50 years we have been begging our leaders to shun greed, stealing and tribalism but they refused. We begged that the nation be fixed but they turned deaf ears. They were focused on their pockets for their children and unborn generations. Now the stolen funds are useless.
They cannot fly out and we cannot as well. Our hospitals and infrastructures are totally and shamefully dilapidated. Pathetic. Worst is that our reserves are empty and fully drained. All of us will suffer it together. Moment of truth is here. After this epidemic, we shall collectively decide how to run this country.
Perhaps, by the time we are through with this scourge, nature would have helped us to press the 'reset' button. A lot of big people are around now by force. There is no London or America to rush to for headaches. Some of them will taste death as well. Yes. They will. It is already happening. Gwagwalada hospital and Yaba hospitals are now premiums yet lacking in facilities instead of Dubai, London, Germany, America, India and China. They will manage it like that and soon they will be overcrowded. God truly has a way of fixing Nations!. We must have sense by force. Koboko from heaven is busy with our buttocks. The time is 1 am. Wait till it gets to 6pm.
Fix education, pay teachers well and equip our institutions no! Rather you send your kids to the best schools in the world.
Fix the health sector and pay doctors well never. Rather you fly around to cure headache.
Fix security, pay officers well and restructure everything mba!
Fix infrastructures no way. Everybody from beginning to the end kept raping this country and her resources.
We kept politicising everything. What a shame of a country. We must get sense by force. All of them are now in hiding. They are now importing their children from abroad. The rich is now crying. We shall all pay the price for neglecting the poor masses. We shall feel the same pain that they have been feeling for 50 years. Oh yes. Payback time is here.
You inflate contracts and siphon money. You kept pocketing funds that will make Nigeria great. Politics and leadership became a juicy occupation for many. Payback time is here. Your billions will not save you. From top to senate to governors shall pay the price painfully.
For 50 years we begged for a good life but your greed blindfolded your brains, senses, and eyes. You refused to listen to the cries of the masses. Both the big and small and even the downtrodden will suffer and you will get sense by force.
No more kidnapping
No more ethnic and religious cleansing
No more armed bandits
No more herdsmen
No more Boko haram
No more religious biases and tensions
No more flying to London to buy Icecream or jetting out to Dubai for a weekend or even to France for hitchhiking. All of us will now sit here and enjoy the scourge of Coronavirus. Oh yes!!!!
We are now at peace, abi? That thunder that has been doing a press-up has finally landed. Ntoo!!!!!
So far there is no vaccine and no cure yet this one will brush us up and throw us into the gutters. We have been praying for Nigeria in distress both in churches and mosques. Now God has answered the prayers in His own ways. That koboko has become real.
Let me drink some water. I have talked enough but be informed that some top government officials are now self-isolating. The chicken has truly come home to roost!!!

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...

THE ENDURING LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP: Chief James Ibori Celebrated for His Impact on Delta State

On Friday, May 31st, during the funeral service for the Late Asagba of Asaba, the essence of true leadership was vividly displayed. The service featured the introduction of various dignitaries, including Senator George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation who represented President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor Godwin Obaseki, and Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa. As each dignitary was introduced, the church remained silent. However, the atmosphere dramatically changed when the name of Former Governor James Ibori was announced; the congregation erupted in wide jubilation and applause. This reaction was so profound that even Senator George Akume and Governor Obaseki could not hide their astonishment. The enthusiastic reception for Chief James Ibori during this solemn occasion highlighted his enduring legacy among the people of Delta State. Despite having left office seventeen years ago, he continues to be celebrated whenever he attends public functions i...
