Media hags on the prowl

by Eze Eluchie

The myopic editorial slant of Bola Tinubu’s (and by extension, the Action Congress of Nigeria’s) The Nation newspapers is symptomatic of the Nigerian malady.

Clear efforts to play the ethnicity card and hype regional sentiments, in of all places the Military establishment, is further indication that we are headed for a looming apocalypse in Nigeria.

The pedestrian write-up is so filled with incredulous innuendos whilst at the same time quoting extensively from so-called petitions from unnamed sources.

To think that some of the characters behind this publication are scamming to form a coalition that will rule Nigeria is pathetic!

Let’s restructure and renegotiate our contraption whilst there is yet time.

That time is fast running out!

Corruption gets increasing recognition as Crime Against Humanity

by Eze Eluchie

I salute the Editorial Board of Nigeria’s The Sun Newspapers for joining the push towards recognizing the looting public treasury as an international crime.

For the very first time, a major newspaper in our part of the world is keying into efforts to ensure that corruption is investigated, prosecuted and punished as a Crime Against Humanity.

The journey has begun. We should all get on board and ensure that the miscreants who pollute our environments with their pathetic greed and lack of leadership and corruption get the judgment they deserve.

Corruption is indeed a Crime Against Humanity as stipulated in Article 7.1(k) of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

I hope the goons manning our contraption are taking note? These kleptocrats will realize that their days are numbered. There will be no hiding place for these rascals.

When Players Pray

by Eze Eluchie


What in heaven’s name could these people be doing in a place supposedly meant for the worship of God? With of all people an Obasanjo ‘bowing’ his bald head and leading ‘prayers’? Obasanjo, Jonathan, Otedola?

Oops, guess the Aso Rock chapel in the Nigeria Presidential Villa is not really a place of worship, but a place of showmanship and deceit.

Guess what the prayer points will be:
1. deity, blind the people from discovering our deceit and thievery
2. deity, allow us to continue to use tools of ethnicity and religious bigotry to continue to hoodwink and fool the people whilst we rob them blind
3. deity, may the seeds of confusion we are trying to sow amongst the Nigerian population be sufficient to keep them from uniting to ask for our blood for having misruled them so harshly
4. deity, deliver all our facebook and social media critics unto our hands so we can teach them one lesson or the other

And the people shall say: Shame.
