As Nigerians battle compounded hardship on a daily basis, by Adekunle Adekoya

Just as everyone was figuring how to continue managing fast-disappearing resources as prices of just about everything resumed an upward climb, the price of fuel energy took off from its precarious perch in the stratosphere, and headed for outer space. Most of us Nigerians woke […]

2027: Atiku’s kitchen-sink strategy betrays crude populism, by Olu Fasan

Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), is adopting a kitchen-sink approach to next year’s presidential race. A “kitchen-sink approach” involves throwing everything at a problem regardless of what works or doesn’t. That’s precisely what Atiku is doing by promising to tackle every conceivable vexed issue if he becomes president next […]

What AI is teaching us about human communication, by Ruth Oji

A colleague recently asked me to review an email she had drafted using an AI writing assistant. The email was impeccable; every sentence was grammatically correct. The structure was logical, and the tone was professional. Yet something felt off. She was writing to a long-time client about a project delay, and the email, while perfectly […]

Education as common Northern responsibility: From 19 separate efforts to 1 Northern compact (2), by Usman Sarki

“The strength of a race is found both in material and spiritual things associated with that race, that form the kernel of its being and progress or, alternatively, its degeneration.” — John Buchan When material and spiritual advance cease and degeneration becomes the norm, the perdition of a race or society becomes inevitable. The argument […]

Igbo identity crisis: The DNA option (2), by Ochereome Nnanna

Since the end of the Biafra War in January 1970, ethnic disunity has wreaked great havoc in the former Eastern Region.

But they (the Minorities) are rebuffed, discriminated against […]

A closer look at the Zero Rated Access Initiative, by Okoh Aihe

The NCC programme wasn’t part of my schedule last week but the insistence of a young employee drew me to the Hilton, venue of the programme, and I left very appreciative that I found my way there. Sometimes, you need to clear your schedule to do certain things. This was one of them. As I […]
