May I say Happy New Year to everyone online. I am very glad and grateful to the Almighty God for seeing us through to the New year. Our Almighty God Jehovah is ever faithful and merciful. May this year favour us more than all the previous years. Amen and amen. Andy Wibbels has a special New Year Present for all bloggers and his Season Pass is highly recommended and very profitable. I just read online that Microsoft gave out Vista Laptops to 90 bloggers hand-picked for their better coverage of tech news than even the mainstream media. Is this not bribe? Microsoft has refuted the allegations and said it was not bribe , but a Christmas present to selected bloggers around the world. Well, Microsoft is yet to give me my own brand new Vista Laptop. N.B: Don't forget to collect your Season Pass .

Here is my latest classic political article, Is America Ready For Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama? and it is a must read. Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama, The Political Couple of the Democrats

From all the news reports on the emerging Presidential candidates in Nigeria, the battle is going to be an all northern political leaders affair as the former military head of state, retired General Muhammad Buhari has been nominated as the flag bearer of the main opposition party, the All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP) and thus poised to challenge Alhaji Umaru Yar' Adua of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP). But, the most formidable Presidential aspirants would be the Vice President Atiku Abubakar and the former military head of state, retired General Ibrahim Babangida. Professor Pat Utomi the presidential flag bearer of the new African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the ex-pop star Rev. Chris Okotie of the Fresh Democratic Party (FDP) are the new breed political leaders of the future and they don't stand any chance contesting against the political juggernauts who are well known to the majority of the Nigerian electorate. It is unfortunate that the political lead...

Did the title of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti's Afrobeat song "Beasts of No Nation" inspire Uzodinma Iweala to give his first novel the same title? Uzodinma Iweala The beasts of no nation or vagabonds in power as Fela called them are still in power in Nigeria. And it is a great pity that majority of Nigerians have forgotten that the present head of state, President Olusegun Obasanjo was the same head of state who sent his zombies in uniform to attack Fela Anikulapo-kuti and threw his old mother over the balcony and assaulted the wives and dancers of Fela in the military invasion of Kalakuta Republic in 1978. President Olusegun Obasanjo has not repented. Because he has invaded other places from the Middle Belt to the Niger Delta region of Nigeria since he returned to power in 1999 and left them in sorrows and tears. And what President Obasanjo did in Odi is not different from what the late Gen.Sani Abacha did in Ogoni land. The beasts of no nation have been feasting on the masses...

Uncle Sam: WHERE DID THE NEGROES GET THE MONEY? Orikinla: Them negroes got them money from Uncle Sam's Cabin. Where did the hunkies get their dollars? From the useless war in Iraq. The war in Iraq is a billion dollar mega business. Ask Dick "the prick" Cheney. God bless.

Born in Calabar on September 30, 1961 to Mr. Henry Duke and his wife, Genevieve, his childhood and youth were remarkable, secure and successful. He loved and respected his parents, particularly his famous father, who, as chairman of the old Board of Customs and Excise, was legendary for his integrity and uprightness. By all accounts, he was not an exceptional student at Corona School, Lagos or Federal Government College, Sokoto. But when his spirit got out of hand, he was recognized as a very promising student! Perhaps, the earliest clue to what he was destined to become was as an undergraduate at the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, where, as a member of the Students’ Union executive, his passion for debates, his thorough, retentive and curious mind, one which constantly asked questions about the future of our country - all came to the fore. The certainty and security of his early life was broken, when, at 27, he lost his father in 1988. Before then, the solidity of his life was inta...

There has never been a free and fair election in Nigeria." ~Maryam Adamu Umar Washington Post, 12/11/2006 I have just read the Washington Post report on the new electoral process in Nigeria with the introduction of the electronic voters registeration system. And I am amused. Because, the most important thing to the majority of Nigerians is not the electoral process. What most Nigerians want is good governance that will solve their economic and social problems. And they don't even care if the elections are rigged or not. Just give us good leaders and not political crooks and rogues in the masquerade of democracy. Who should be the next President of Nigeria? That is the question. I have been close to the corridors of power and have worked in the political campaign office of Alhaji Bamanga Tukur between 1990 and 1992 on Eletu Agabi Street on the Victoria Island in Lagos. I have had the privilege of meeting with some top politicians in Abuja. And I can state here that most of the...

If any UN diplomat deserves the Nobel Prize for Peace, that noble diplomat is Jan Pronk the UN Special Envoy to Sudan for his fearless confrontation with the rebels and draconian ruling Islamists on rampage in Darfur. And I have been monitoring and evaluating his progress to bring an end to the genocide in Darfur. Sir, I have read and now understood the hypocrisy of the ruling regime in Sudan. The fact is the ruling regime in Sudan is guilty of crimes against humanity in Darfur. And your statements of facts from your eye-witness accounts proved them wrong and they believe you have seen enough. And the less you know the better for them. Because they are afraid that your evidence could be used against them when they would be tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Well done sir. Dear Orikinla Osinachi, Thank you very much for your understanding. You are right. Please tell your colleagues and friends, so that the people in Darfur will not be forgotten. With best regards, Jan Pro...

As Americans vote , we watch them to see how their votes will also pass their verdict on President George W.Bush. And as the opinion polls show, Bush is no longer the choice of the majority of American voters and this fact would be the yardstick to push the Republicans out of power. Americans have had enough of the Republican misadministration in the prosecution of the war on terror as shown by chaos caused by the war in Iraq. Here is the mail from my real namesake, Michael Moore. Friends, Tomorrow night, those who sent 2,800 of our soldiers to their deaths -- all because of a lie the president concocted -- will find out if America chooses to reward them -- or remove them. As good as things look for the Democrats, do not pop the corks and start the partying yet. Do not believe for a second that the Republicans plan on losing. They will fight like dogs for the next 24 hours -- relentless, unforgiving, nonstop action to squeeze every last conservative voter out of the house on election ...

May I ask you to read the following report from an Aviation expert in Nigeria published in the Nigerian Vanguard News of Tuesday, December 13, 2005. Why Nigerian Planes Are Crashing Like Sick Birds Shot Down From The Sky? I read it all earlier in 2005 and the tragic fact is the authorities never bothered to read it. And if they read it, they never bothered to address the issues raised. When the Bellview and Sosoliso crashed last year, we all asked the President of Nigeria to sack the incompetent morons he appointed in the Aviation sector. But the moron himself did not listen and was busy trying to manipulate the constitution to favour his Third Term Bid and when Vice President Atiku Abubakar did not support him, he turned his furies on Atiku instead of doing his work. And all of them are still busy fighting and killing themselves and looting the treasury and sharing oil blocs and licenses among themselves and their proxies until this plane crash jolted them back to reality. Read the re...

The beneficiaries of the kleptocratic regimes are now touted and celebrated as the richest men in Nigeria and decorated as the gurus of the economic growth of Nigeria. Criminals who should be in jail or even summarily executed for causing the untimely deaths of millions of the masses in Nigeria they left in penury and misery. See the complete text and the classified document of the identity of those who stole billions of dollars in Nigeria in The Reign of Kleptocracy in Nigeria

The Sultan of Sokoto Alhaji Muhammadu Maccido and his son have been killed in the latest plane crash in Nigeria. Over 97 other passengers were also killed in this terrible plane crash. The ADC Boeing 737 crashed near the Abuja airport and exploded into flames at noon. The BBC and CNN were the first to report the bad news. The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) later brought the details of the air disaster. See the CNN for the video of one of the survivors. May the souls of all those killed in the catastrophic plane crash rest in peace and may God comfort their bereaved families and all Nigerians.

For God's sake get behind him and realize its potentials," said Mr. Robert McNamara, a former United States secretary of defense last weekend whilst visiting Vice President Atiku Abubakar of Nigeria.

I have just received the following letter of appeal for Darfur from Maureen Byrnes, the Executive Director of Human Rights First and I want to appeal to you reading this post to join us in helping the suffering and dying refugees in Darfur. I have been active in the global efforts to end the crisis in Darfur where over six Nigerian soldiers with the African Union (AU) Peace Keeping Force have been killled. And this made me to advise my contact in Darfur to leave by all means. He is like a brother to me. So his safety is paramount. He has been sending me eye-witness accounts of the catastrophe in Darfur and I corresponded with Jan Pronk the UN Special Envoy in Sudan. But now Maureen just informed me that Jan Pronk has been expelled by the ruling goverment in Sudan. I have some classified reports and I cannot make them public now. Please, respond to the following appeal as I have done. More details are provided on Human Rights First . Hello Toniyah, Last week I sent you a message about t...
