The death of Deborah Yakubu, the Zuru girl and ex-student in Sokoto, has continued to show the lawlessness of our country and of Africa in general. This is not to say that this lawlessness doesn't take place in other parts of the world. Yet, the difference is in the way such cases are managed....
Introduction As all the members of the human body, though they are many, form one body, so also are the faithful in Christ.

I usually like to wake up late on October 1st because over the years I don't find encouraging posts and comments from Nigerians on this special day of ours. However, though we like to pass the blame, each one of us has contributed to what our country is today directly or indirectly. October 1st,...

As the celebration of the mother's day has begun today (since there are many mother's days in each year), I want to say we are sorry to the most relegated sex in the world. All over the world, for a very long time until recently, the female sex had remained second class. In some...
With the current situation of things world over and especially in Nigeria, many people no longer see any value in education. Money talks all the way!!!
