My Governor Has No Brain


May Is American Stroke Month: Tips for Family Caregivers ...

Read the opinion article below…
OPINION – Yesterday, yet another group emerged to rescue Nigeria from the abyss. It is called the “Revive Nigeria Group” and is led by Aisha Waziri Umar. It followed the launching of the “National Intervention Movement” led by Olisa Agbakoba on 29th November. Previously, the “Emerging Political Leaders Group” had launched a Summit also in Abuja on 22nd November led by Datti Baba Ahmed and Frank Nweke. I am told that many more are enroute. I lot of these groups have emerged from intense WhatsApp discussions on the national drift and the imperative of reinventing another type of leadership for the country. I guess the real issue is that as political preparations for the 2019 elections accelerate and two old politicians in their seventies appear to be the key candidates on the track, other generations are coming out to scream, following tutoring from the articulate Samson Otodo and his YIAGA youth movement that; “We Are Not Too Young
To Run”. For others, it’s not an age issue but one of ideas on how to transform Nigeria’s potential into development reality.
So yesterday, at the Revive Nigeria Launch, Frank Nweke spoke of the Nigerian paradox on how his friend Osita Chidoka was so impressive in the debates leading to the Anambra elections and how the people should have elected him for his excellent programme and commitment to serve. They chose otherwise and followed the money he complained. It was in that context that he recounted the story of a taxi driver complaining bitterly about how his people have been cursed with a governor who has no brain and is messing up the State. Nweke’s point was that we must learn to choose leaders who can exercise good governance and I guess make us happy about our country and ourselves.
Talking about governors, I read yesterday that we finally have clarity on the Imo State happiness controversy. According to the spokesman to Governor Rochas Okorocha, the real name of the new ministry some people are ridiculing is: the “Ministry of Happiness and Purpose Fulfilment” and not as earlier announced as the “Ministry of Happiness and Couples Fulfilment”. The word “Couple”, we were told, was inadvertently written, instead of the word “Purpose.” Now that we are clear, I guess the next item on the Imo Government agenda, according to postings in the social media, is the establishment of SAS – the Special Anti-sadness Squad. Governor Okorocha has used his considerable brainpower to devise ways of providing democratic dividends to his people. He has been generous with sharing the exceptional skill sets of his family members with the masses through appointing them into public positions. He has invested huge amounts of public funds to build statutes of world leaders for the civic education of the masses and is now focused on transforming their sadness into happiness.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

    The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has sent an important message to his followers over the Biafra movement. The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021. It has been observed that IPOB is in disintegration following Nnamdi Kanu’s rearrest and detention. The present situation of the Biafran movement can be likened to that of sheep without a shepherd. However, Kanu in a conversation with his sib...

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria. Control over the lucrative oil production in the Niger Delta played a vital strategic role. Within a year, the Federal Government troops surrounded Biafra, capturing coastal oil facilities and the city of Port Harcourt. The blockade imp...
