LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT Dear President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, Ramadan Kareem. May Almighty Allah guide and be with you, especially at this time with the affairs of our nation Nigeria. Democracy thrives on a vibrant and viral opposition. I have wondered if the word opposition is an appropriate word to use given that I really do not see those with alternate views as being in opposition. I prefer to see them as partners in progress on the way to getting the country to achieve its destined lofty heights. Mr. President, the actions and utterances of your aides, especially Minister Lai Mohammed, are tantamount to stifling the opposition. As if the latter's comments are not unfortunate enough, one just needs to look at the other organizations within the Executive like the EFCC and ICPC, among others, to become curious as to how come, suddenly, under your watch, the main victims of their activities are opposition figures and persons perceived to be close to them. Your Excellency, w

THE JUDICIARY ON TRIAL! The Judiciary is on trial and the implications will have far reaching consequences  into the future of how democracy and elections will evolve in our beloved Nigeria. If and when citizens lose faith in the ability of the judiciary, especially the courts of the land, to transparently adjudicate in matters of significant national interest, then we can better imagine what will follow. This is most pronounced in the case of presidential election tribunals for the stakes are very high and the stakes ought to be high. The issues go deep into how a people’s life will progress or otherwise. As the presidential tribunal commences,I find my mind wondering: can justice be done with the way things look? Why do I say this? Well, the interest of the President of the Court of Appeal, Hon. Justice Zainab Bulkachuwa, is completely compromised in this case and she ought to recuse herself, for how do you expect that the learned justice would, in good conscience, expect to

WHEN GIVING BECOMES A LIFESTYLE, GOD'S REWARD IS EVER CERTAIN. Giving to the needy has become the habit of the daughter of a respected Pastor the first  Lagos State Baptist Conference Secretary.  Rev I.O Bamimodu.  Pastor Mrs. Bola Adebanjo is one of the few ministers of God whose interest is in helping the poor by providing food, clothing and shelter, irrespective of their religions affiliations and tribal identity.

In the cold, this woman and her children are at the mercy of no one except God, but came to her rescue through this great Philantro
