Re: "Nigeria Trapped in Anomie?" By Paquito Nigeria is not trapped in anomie;which is the absence of social norms and values.no,nigeria is presenting its natural true self one that has come to the fore as a result of decades of mismanagement and debuchery,its called lack of nationhood. No administration since independence has worked to augment all the forces that make up Nigeria into a true nation. Partisan politics has been and contines to be the order of the day. Social norms do exist in our respective communities, so we cannot say anomie. The answer is more sophisticated than that. The implementation is simplistic with the right mindset, but not if political gangsterism is the order of the day, that leaves no room whatsoever for constructive dialogue. To illustrate my point. How on earth do we explain the oxymoron ; the high level supporters of ex-governor James Ibori? Only in Nigeria will an ex felon be lauded with such incredulity. My friends, Nigeria is only great if we...

The ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) popularly called by the derogatory name of Papa Deceive Pikin , in Nigerian pidgin English, is a notorious and monstrous plutocracy of kleptomaniacs, from their local wards to the corridors of Aso Villa, the State House in Abuja. The President, Alhaji Umaru Yar’Adua is exactly what I call him, Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves . As long as the notoriously corrupt ex-governors, Dr. Peter Odili and Chief “the thief’ James Ibori are still enjoying the protective custody and patronage of the PDP led government, I will never support President Umaru Yar’Adua, because anyone protecting criminals is equally a criminal. Therefore, Alhaji Umaru Yar’ Adua is as guilty as the criminal stalwarts of the PDP, because birds of the same feather flock together. And show me your friends and I will tell you who you are. As Jesus Christ said: By their fruits, you shall know them . If you are the chairperson at a conference of thieves, then you are the chairperson of the...
