Come off it!That’s my response to a friend who told me it’s pay day for some of our excretable excellencies. They really don’t belong to us again. It’s not as if we are doing yanga. But considering how they’ve been behaving since they went into the prison called state house, I wouldn’t think they’ll feel…
I really couldn’t believe when I heard the news of people being offered incentives to encourage them to help themselves and the community. Some people are sceptical in taking the covid vaccines.

The album gives us an insight into the wonderful world of children. Today is children’s day in Nigeria. Great, isn’t it? Children will have the…
Today is Children’s Day in Nigeria! I would suggest there should be no March Past to observe the day. The children should simply learn from the idiocy and stupidity being displayed by us. And by Jove, they’ll surely learn a lot. Instead of the “cowboy” movies we used to watch when I was a kid,…
