Is Tinubu’s failed first day in office a sign of things to come?

By Prince Justice Jadesola Faloye In a democracy, constructive critical appraisers start work the same time a president is sworn in. The removal of fuel subsidy is a good policy but it’s implementation was woeful. Fuel scarcity and price increases is the first fruit of President Tinubus victory.

Soyinka’s unfortunate taxonomy of Peter Obi and Obidients

By Prince Justice J Faloye Prof Soyinka differentiated between Peter Obi and the Obidient Movement, while denying that Peter Obi’s visit to him was not about reconciliation. He said he had no problems with Peter Obi nor Labour Party, which is understandabe and right, but he went further to denigrate the Obidient Movement. One can’t ...

Excuse you, Lagos Yorubas are no slaves nor lesser Yorubas!

By Prince Justice Jadesola Faloye There is no Yoruba state except Lagos where a single political party or godfather has ruled continuously for 16yrs. None, except Lagos. Yorubas are naturally politically assertive that even before the advent of Europeans, Yorubas had unwritten constitutional, not absolute, monarchs. It is therefore an insult to claim that it ...

Soyinka, an epitome of coloniality, not liberation philosopher-king!

By Prince Justice Jadesola Faloye The evil propaganda of Igbo imperialism against Yoruba civilization provokes me to rescind my initial decision to keep out of the political discourse generated by Prof Wole Soyinka’s literary suicide bomb of calling the peaceful Obidient movement a fascist movement.

This is the sad state of Original indigenous Africans whose forefathers allowed colonists to miseducate them. ...

Nigeria’s arrested development

Politics, ethnicity and every other sentiment aside, Nigeria’s economic and political development has sadly been arrested by the ruling party. Figures dont lie. Our Gross Domestic Production (GDP) in 2014, the last full year of President Jonathan, was $574 billion and when APC came into power it wiped off $200b by 2017, and in 8yrs ...
