A list of nearly 80 names allegedly Nigerian citizens were said to be indicted by the American Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over issues bordering on fraud. The indictment revealed that over $1.1b was the sum of money Nigerians defrauded Americans within a span of 6 months. Internet fraudsters of African origin is on the rise in the US, forensic experts say. This is largely because most black people, including African–Americans, wants to get rich quick and in an easy manner. They like flashy consumption and lifestyle. A recent investigation also indicted a former petroleum minister, Diezani Allison Madueke, from Nigeria who owned a $40m gallery of jewellery, including over 400 bangles. What is curious about the FBI list of suspects was the reaction of Reno Omokri on Tweeter. "It is wrong to cast aspersions on Igbos due to the names on the FBI's suspects list." He went on to complete his reaction by saying "...Sani Abacha is the world's biggest th...

The institutionalization of Christian doctrine, otherwise known as Christianization, has been entrenched, carefully webbed into the Nigerian soul a long time before Muhammadu Buhari ever dreamt of becoming a president. The sponsors of this doctrine have a hand in all of the country's problems, that is why they are quick to label the president as an architect of Islamization. What are the prove to this accusations? Out of the 22 commercial banks in Nigeria, only 2 are non–interest Islamic in practice. The rest constitutes Christian beliefs both in content and practice. The top 20 highest debtors to our common wealth, AMCON, are Christians from the southern part of the country. Christianization or Islamization? They have borrowed 67% of the N5 trillion of toxic debts from our various Nigerian banks and have invested into their Christian businesses like breweries,  churches,  hotels, universities etc, at the detriment of Nigerian Muslims, whose businesses have been suffering fo...

 Ita Enang, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate),  has disclosed to State House correspondent in Abuja on Wednesday that President Muhammadu Buhari has signed the Nigerian Correctional Service Bill into law. This new law invariably repeals the Nigerian Prisons Service Act. Therefore, The Nigerian Prison Service will now be  called Nigerian Correctional Service. What is really in changing the name of an institution? The history of The Nigerian Prison Service (NPS) could be traced as far back as when the country was colonized. But the first prison was established in 1872 along the Broad Street Lagos with an initial inmate capacity of 300. The colonial prison at this stage was not designed to reform anyone. Rtd Dr I. W. Orakwe (former Controller of Prisons) wrote extensively over this, saying that, "There was no systematic penal policy from which direction could be sought for penal administration. Instead prisoners wer...

Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Kaduna State said on Thursday that over 500 of its members were kidnapped in the last two years, adding that the body had paid over N300m as ransom. This singular act of CAN has contributed in further institutionalizing ransom. When criminals know for sure that CAN will pay they will surely be in business. It is not only that,  I remembered a financial institution that was owing a choir mistress in one church. They were advised to seek her pastor's audience in that regard. And the Church paid off the loan on behalf of the woman. It is not rampant in Muslim communities for a mosque to consistently be paying off it's members financial liabilities. Perhaps because Muslims do not pay money to become members of a worship center or pay a compulsory–like tithe. This is not to say that Muslims have not been victims of kidnappings. In fact,  it is believed that Muslims have been kidnapped more in Kaduna for instance, than any other religi...

I was an avid follower of Sahara Reporters and was equally thrilled when Omoyele Sowore jumped on the opportunity of becoming a president in Nigeria. But the campaign turned him into something else. Or perhaps, revealed the monster in him. And thousands of his former supporters left him,  including myself. And thousands of his friends. As one of them delved into his past relationship with Sowore. Read on: I and Mr Peter Claver have been friends since the late 80s. Peter Claver and Omoyele Sowore  were in the Student Union Exco of the University of Lagos in the days of the annulment of June 12 1993 Presidential Elections won by Chief Moshood Abiola, GCFR. We all fought for June 12 and through Mr Peter  Claver I met Sowore and we all became friends till date. When Sowore founded the once famous Sahara Reporters we became contributors of articles to enrich and to promote the Tabloid and this we did very well and today we are grateful to SOWORE for giving us the platform t...
