The president of Nigeria has always come under intense public scrutiny. His actions, or inactions, often translate into any sense of failures, or the general sense of accomplishment attached to Nigeria. If the Eagles win an international competition, then the president is doing well. If there is a fire in the Alaba international Market, the president is summoned to intervene, sometimes by wide public outcry. No one considers that the Alaba International Market falls under the municipal oversight of the Ojo local government in Lagos, which should, under normal circumstances, provide the fire and emergency services; market security, and enforce safety codes. These duties of the local or municipal government, are sometimes taken over by the states, and so functions and responsibilities of the tiers of government blur so much that the average citizen has no idea where the recourse to public services lie. To whom should we go to demand proper public education for our children? Who ...

ARE today’s women trying to out-do the men in their quest for sex? When we accuse some men of being lechers, isn’t their success to do with the connivance of their ‘victims’? When I came across a recent story of the nightmare a young man. Andy said he went through in the hands of her fiancee’s mum and grandma, 1 was lost for words. According to him: “I had a wonderful fiancee and we were saving up to rent a flat together. I was very happy with my life. Then something happened to change that. “It began when my fiancee asked me to help her decorate her mother’s house. We both took the day off work and threw ourselves into the job. Halfway through, she got a phone call from the office, asking her to go in. I felt bad leaving her mum to decorate alone, so I offered to stay and finish it off. I worked hard all day. My fiancee’s mum was delighted and suggested toasting her new-look home with a drink. She opened a bottle of wine. We both had a couple of glasses and...

The ongoing probe of former Pres Jonathan's administration by President Muhammadu Buhari is to find out the dealings behind the alleged purchase of 3 mobile stages, that cost $6.9m, Presidency source has said. According to a document, which was obtained from the Presidency on Saturday, the deal, which is now a subject of investigation, was allegedly carried out by Jonathan; his Chief Security Officer, Mr. Gordon Obuah; and former Minister of Petroleum, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke. The fund was said to have been withdrawn from one of the numerous accounts of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, for the purpose of buying 3 pieces of 40-feet mobile stages for use by Jonathan during mass public speaking events. ADVERTISEMENT According to the document, apart from the fact that the sum for the stages was “incredibly inflated”, there is currently no evidence that the stages were bought since the money was...

This issue is further discussed this week from a different perspective. We kick off with the testimony of a lady who is about 60 years and got married in July 2015 and according to her “both families were fully in attendance”. This was read to the congregation of Laughter Foundation International Ministry by the General Overseer, Pastor Gbenga Oso. These days, it is fashionable to hear ladies or men say “ marriage is not compulsory. If I can have a child, it is okay”. This is not in line with the word of God and has led many ladies to permanent sorrow. How? We’ll return to this later but first what is the word of God concerning marriage. Genesis 2 (18) is our authority. It states: “ And the Lord God said , it is not good that the man should be alone, I will make a help mate for him”. This also applies to a woman. That it is the desire of God that we have joyful homes is not in doubt. Psalm 128 vs 3 lends c...
