DEMOCRACY FOR SALE IN NIGERIA ? BY Mike Olatunji 🇳🇬 Lagos, Nigeria

Image
Exorbitant Nomination Fees Shut Out the Poor   –When will politics become a service, not a business?   DEMOCRACY FOR SALE IN NIGERIA ? The exorbitant nomination form fees are suffocating Nigeria's youth. ₦200m for president, ₦100m for senator, ₦70m for house of rep, ₦20m for House of Assembly – who's winning? Not the people, not the nation, just the highest bidder. Politicians, listen:  serving humanity is paramount. Your greed is killing democracy. These fees exclude talented, passionate Nigerians with new ideas. You're allowing bad leaders to loot with impunity, while the poor are priced out of politics. Politics isn't a business, it's a service  Scrap these fees, open the space. Let young Nigerians participate. Good governance shouldn't come with a high cost. Break the cycle. The nation's future depends on it. Children of the rich, who don't know the value of money – talk less of how one works for it – can afford such millions due to their...

Bayo Onanuga and the Quiet Architecture of Power and Strategy

Image
Bayo Onanuga and the Quiet Architecture of Power and Strategy In an age where governance is increasingly shaped by the velocity of information and the volatility of public opinion, a few figures distinguish themselves not by noise, but by clarity, restraint, and precision. Chief Bayo Onanuga, OON, CON , Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu , GCFR,  belongs firmly in that rare class. He is not merely a government spokesman; he is a disciplined custodian of narrative, a strategist who understands that communication, at its highest level, is both an art and an instrument of statecraft. Onanuga’s journey to the heart of the Presidency is rooted in a long and distinguished career defined by courage, intellect, and commitment to truth. As a co-founder of TheNews magazine and a central figure in Nigeria’s pro-democracy media movement, he honed his instincts in an era where journalism demanded not just skill but sacrifice. That formative e...

THE MAN TINUBU TRUSTS IS THE MAN ONDO CENTRAL NEEDS! By Dr. Tosin Ajayi Distinguished Senator Adeniyi Adegbonmire is the voice Ondo Central cannot afford to lose!

He has empowered farmers with agricultural inputs, uplifted families through economic empowerment programmes, fixed our roads, brought electricity to our rural communities, and strengthened healthcare access for all. This is not politics. This is PURPOSE. Senator Adegbonmire's vision aligns perfectly with President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda  — and that alignment is our greatest advantage. The President cannot do it alone. He needs trusted hands on ground, and our Senator is one of the few leaders the President relies on to deliver democracy's dividends directly to the people. To support Adeg...
