Nigeria’s Calamitous Movement: Who is Safe?

  Nigeria’s Calamitous Movement: Who is Safe? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tcTYB91AEVEX7pD0Tq1uwclOkgnj4MfP/view?usp=sharing In Nigeria, the bullets of insurgents, bandits, and assassins have cut down the low and the mightiest in cold blood, more often than not, without an iota of provocation. Sometimes, a whole village is sacked, tortured, maimed, killed and their women raped for just a “heck of it” making one wonder and ponder about the purpose and the aim. Three groups of terrorists are holding and squeezing the nation making it move in a calamitous manner. In the northeast, Boko Haram is calling shots. With the possible exception of Maiduguri town, no town or village is safe in Borno state. There are several “no-go” areas in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe states. From 2011 to date, about 37,500 people were killed and 2.5 million displaced people in the Chad Basin and the entire northeast (https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker/conflict/boko-haram-nigeria) Among the high-prof...

Obasanjo@87: Grand Salute to Embodiment of Africanism and Leadership

 Obasanjo@87: Grand Salute to Embodiment of Africanism and Leadership By Prof. M.K. Othman   On August 21, 2017, I held my head high, overwhelmed by the pride of being a Nigerian in the United States of America. Thanks to the portrait of Olusegun Obasanjo, conspicuously hung in an auspicious room called the "Hall of Laureates" at the World Food Prize Foundation in Des Moines, Iowa. I was daydreaming until the resonance of the articulated voice of Ambassador Kenneth Quinn woke me with his unforgettable statement, "These are pictures of pioneer board members of the World Food Prize Foundation." I was not expecting to find a picture of a black African hanging amid the photographs of board members in the laureates' hall. Still, the picture of one of our own, Chief Obasanjo, was there. He indeed made me happy and moved with dignity. That was not all; Ambassador Quinn proudly announced that the 2017 World Food Prize Laureate was won by one of us, a famous Nigerian, Dr...
