Inter-generational conversations, by Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi

I recently held mentoring sessions with three separate groups of young feminists and women’s rights activists. There were some questions that came up in every session. I am sharing a brief summary here. What personal values have remained constant for you, and how have they shapedthe way you lead, influence, and build movements? I have always […]

Osun election: Matters arising, by Ikechukwu Amaechi

Nigerians are an excitable lot. It is, therefore, not surprising that the outcome of the August 15 off-cycle Osun governorship election is generating so much buzz. To be sure, the outcome calls for celebration because for the first time in a long while, the will of the people prevailed in an election. And it prevailed not because […]

Obasanjo-Atiku’s ding-dong battle: Who is fooling who? By Olu Fasan

Over the past several years, especially during presidential election seasons, a war of words usually breaks out between former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Atiku Abubakar, his vice-president. Obasanjo always fires the first salvo, presenting Atiku as the devil incarnate. But Atiku never shies away from responding in kind. The self-indulgent, long-running feud is frustratingly irritating because its […]

The most expensive communication mistake professionals make, by Ruth Oji

A colleague once sent me a project brief that was, by any measure, impressively detailed. Three pages of specifications, timelines broken down by week, deliverables listed with precision. When I asked a clarifying question about the project’s underlying purpose, she seemed surprised. “It’s all in the document,” she said. And it was. Every word was clear, […]

Pointless debate on Tinubu’s certificate, by Suleiman A. Suleiman

The ongoing debate about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s educational certificates is not and should not be the defining issue in a Nigerian presidential election. We cannot always reduce serious questions of governance in a presidential election to fitful hysteria about the academic credentials of candidates. For a sitting president, the certificate controversy is not very useful […]

Fake independence: So, Tinubu can tell EFCC what to do! By Olu Fasan

Some Nigerians commit the delusional sin of believing that once a state institution has the word “independent” prefixed to its name, it is, indeed, independent. They believe that critical state agencies created by statute or the Constitution to ensure security and law and order, to guarantee justice and rule of law, to safeguard electoral integrity and […]

International law, international community, the West and the rest of us (I), by Usman Sarki

International law, otherwise known in its older and nobler description as the law of nations, is often presented as the great civilising compact of mankind. It is spoken of as though it were a sacred moral canopy beneath which all nations, large and small, powerful and weak, rich and poor, are equally sheltered. Its language […]
