As concerned parents and guardians, we are writing to express our deep concerns about the Big Brother Naija (BBN) program and its harmful impact on our society, particularly on our children and the next generation. As parents, we have dreams, visions, wishes, and desires for our children—none of which align with the values or content promoted by BBN. While entertainment is an essential part of life, it is disheartening to witness a platform like BBN becoming synonymous with...

THE BIG BROTHER NAIJA PHENOMENON: A THREAT TO SOCIETAL VALUES By: Amb. Eki David Greg, MKO (08100247710) When the winds of change blow, some people build walls, while others build windmills." In the face of the Big Brother Naija (BBN) phenomenon, it's high time we assessed its impact on our society and decided whether to build walls of protection or windmills of indulgence. THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF BBN BBN has become a showcase for all sorts of negativity, promoting: 1.  Moral decay: Explicit content and behavior that can desensitize viewers to immoral acts. 2. Unhealthy competition: Emphasis on competition and conflict that can foster envy and quarrelsome behavior. 3. Lack of role models: Contestants' actions and attitudes that can shape young minds in a negative way. A CALL FOR ACTION "The future belongs to those who prepare for it today." It's time for our government, parents, religious leaders, academias, and activists to take a stand against programs lik...

EKITI APC LEADERS AND STATE GOVERNMENT OPPOSE KAYODE FAYEMI SURREPRITIOUS MOVES ABD ATTEMPT TO PREPARE GROUNDS FOR ADC IN EKITI STATE. APC Ekiti Stands Firm; Fayemi's ADC Gambit Opposed Bt Ekiti APC and State Government Notable Stakeholders in Ekiti State's rulling All Progressive Congress have dissociated themselves from the purported APC Stakeholders meeting being called by former Governor of the State, Dr. John Kayode Fayemi, for Saturday, 19th July, 2025, at his Isan Ekiti country home. Notable Stakeholders who spoke on the development condemned the surreptitious moves of the former Governor as a mark of desperation by "an aggrieved and manipulative political marauder who is bent on destabilising the APC in Ekiti State just because he failed in his bid to be appointed a Minister or Ambassador because he believes it is his birthright to always be given a big position in every administration even when he had not merited same." Fayemi has called a meeting of former...

Nigeria’s Mining Boom: Alake's Giant Strides Evokes Global Attraction to Nigeria's Mining Sector By Josiah Adedayo

Nigeria’s Mining Boom: Alake's Giant Strides Evokes Global Attraction to Nigeria's Mining Sector By Josiah Adedayo  It is superfluous working overtime recalling the shock and trepidation that greeted the appointment of Dr. Alake, a media and communication expert and brilliant strategist, as Minister of Solid Mineral Development on August 15, 2023. Naysayers had erroneously opined that Alake would find it difficult to find his feet in the technical field of mining, where geologists and mining engineers hold sway. Indeed, the strategic importance of the mining sector to the country can hardly be over-emphasized. According to official data, Nigeria is said to be endowed with over 40 types of minerals including gold, silica, lead, marble, tin ore, zinc, coal, iron ore, granite, laterite, manganese and limestone. Nigeria sits on mining reserves worth $750billion following a preliminary report on assessment of the mining potentials by a German firm, GeoScan. But the sector remains un...

  Nigerian highlife musician dies; Veteran Highlife musician, Mike Ejeagha has died at the age of 95. He died on Friday evening around 8 p.m. at 32 Garrison Hospital in Enugu after being ill for a long time. Ejeagha, who was well known for using Igbo proverbs and folktales in his songs, made a lasting mark in Nigeria’s music industry. He gained fame in the 1980s when his unique style of storytelling through music captured the hearts of many across the country. His music was not just entertainment—it carried the weight of tradition, passing on lessons from one generation to the next. Through his songs, he kept the Igbo language and culture alive, especially during a time when modern sounds were starting to take over. Many people who grew up listening to his music remember the way he blended calm rhythms with deep meanings. Even younger audiences who discovered his songs much later could feel the wisdom in his lyrics. His songs were more than just melodies; they told stories, taught ...

WHEN CIVIL SERVANTS ACT LIKE STREET TOUTS: Ministry of Finance Coffin Saga must Attract Harsh Sanctions

WHEN CIVIL SERVANTS ACT LIKE STREET TOUTS: MINISTRY OF FINANCE COFFIN SAGA MUST ATTRACT HARSH SANCTIONS Discipline Must Return to the Service—Mock Funerals Are Not Protest, They Are Misconduct Nigerians cannot stop amusing the internet, and the law must not stop taking its course on them. The former Minister of Finance was fired yesterday — less than 24 hours later, his obsequies rented the internet today. A living man declared dead. What a barbaric action from Ministry of Finance staff, all because of the former Minister’s stance while in office. Must Ministry of Finance staff wish him dead?  I have realized that such reactions in Nigeria ministries often occur when leader blocks shady deals or prevents the misappropriation of funds.  The report that a coffin bearing the picture of Mr. Wale Edun was brought into the Federal Ministry of Finance, followed by staged wailing from staff, is a new low for the Nigerian civil service. This is not activism. This is not culture. This i...

GOVR AIYEDATIWA ELIGIBILITY FOR ANOTHER TERM: "legal scholars must resist absolutist interpretations" Shola Elekan PUBLIC BRIEF: CLARIFYING GOVERNOR LUCKY AYEDATIWA'S ELIGIBILITY FOR ANOTHER TERM Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa In recent days, public discourse has intensified around the eligibility of His Excellency, Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, to contest for another term as Governor of Ondo State. Some legal commentators have cited Section 182(3) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended by Act No. 10 of 2018), which provides: "A person who was sworn-in as Governor to complete the term for which another person was elected as Governor shall not be elected to such office for more than a single term." While this provision appears straightforward, it requires deeper constitutional, legal, and contextual analysis. Governor Aiyedatiwa was elected as Deputy Governor in 2020. Upon the death of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu in 2023, he constitutionally succeeded to the go...
