Buhari: Nigerians Owe Bishop Kukah A Debt Of Gratitude

 By Ikechukwu Amaechi

As you read this, it will be exactly three days to the end of the year and 152 days to the end of Muhammadu Buhari’s second and final term in office as president. And Nigerians are hurting badly. In the last seven and half years of his baleful presidency, all the indices of human development – I mean all – have gone south, literally and metaphorically.

*Kukah and Buhari 

Today, Nigerians are neither guaranteed a healthy life, access to knowledge nor a decent standard of living. Paradoxically, the so-called leaders are overreaching themselves in their toadying jaunts that Buhari is the best thing to happen to Nigeria since October 1, 1960. Those who climbed on the rooftops just yesterday to shout themselves hoarse over perceived poor governance have suddenly gone mute.

Why Nigeria Is In Debt

By Sunny  Awhefeada

I must begin with a confession that I am not an economist! My dabbling into a topic with its moorings in economics is the consequence of provocation by those who rule, run and ruin Nigeria. The ruling class too of­ten feels that the rest of us do not think and are therefore bound to swallow opinions hook line and sinker without asking questions.

*Buhari and Ahmad

This tendency to undermine the people is also traceable to our docility and inability to follow through clamours for account­ability and good governance. We occasionally raise alarm and frown at some of government’s inanities, but we give up too soon and move on and those who creat­ed such discomfitures laugh and mock the brevity of our critical response and also move on to per­petuate more devious schemes that hold us down. Economics and politics are no rocket scienc­es.
