 Looking for a country that has practiced a mix of Illiteratocracy and Gerontocracy since her independence? Welcome to my beloved country that has gotten only one educated and relatively young leader democratically elected.

If I were to use my country as example, our becoming the poverty capital of the world has nothing to do with the people rather the leadership. Since independence, we have been ruled by barely literate leaders galvanized by selfishness and I dare say kleptomania.

Next week, we shall go to the economic or business organizations and if there is space,...

 Looking for the three most important qualities that are missing in Nigeria's political leadership? The missing qualities are Excellence, Integrity and Trust.

 In the 1990s while working in one company as Personnel Manager, I extended an existing law by over ten years before my action was legalised. WHAT HAPPENED? One Summer morning, I was in my office when a security guard brought a lady with two kids, asking for the whereabouts of her husband who worked for us. In response to my inquiring, the lady said she had see the husband for almost three months. She further informed yours truly that she was hungry and tired of feeding herself and two kids. Based on my compassion, I decided to do something that was unlawful and not in the company,'s conditions of service. I sent for the three principal officers of the Branch Union. When they arrived I called the lady with kids and asked her to introduce herself after which I told them, what I have decided to do. Again on basis of compassion, the union officials agreed with me. Then I sent for the staff and told him that it has been agreed by us  that with effect from that month, while he sign...
