The article you are about to read does not suppose that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is nepotic as it is too early to conclude, but it is a preemptive piece to nudge him to exploit the EDI capability of Nigeria to progress Nigeria towards nationhood. With this guided preface, let us begin. Mathematics is the language of the universe. Anything that will endure must be embedded in Mathematics. What we refer to as the norm is embedded in mathematics, and it has the same root with normal, normalise or normal distribution. A normal distribution is a statistical profile that must…

I listened to the entire judgement of the contest between APC, PDP and LP. There were key issues that I was interested in hearing how they would be resolved. The 25% question was very important to me because it is embedded in logic and mathematics, although lawyers see it as a constitutional matter while linguistics experts see it as a coordinating conjunction. Unfortunately, when the judges got there, it was not addressed mathematically. Rather, it appeared that the lead judge childed PDP and LP for not understanding the simple statement. For me it was not resolved or at least, the…

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) of the Federal Government has unveiled a fresh catalog of 154 fully authorized digital lenders that are granted licenses to function within the nation.

I watched Channels TV news on the meeting between Bill Gates, VP Kashim Shettima and some state government representatives. I listened to the Deputy Governor of Ebonyi State speak and her speech provoked this article. There is no need emphasising on the speech, rather it will be better to address the issues of importance to the State. Gov. Francis Ogbonnia Nwifuru appears to be moving in the right direction. His appointments appeared inclusive of all the parts of the state. His announcement of recruiting Health professionals is commendable because the campaigner of #Makeourhospitalwork, Dr Laz Ude Eze, has been raising…

During political seasons as this, Nigerians suffer all sorts of abuses, insults and disparaging demeanours. Politicians usually tell Nigerians to their very face that they are fools and less intelligent than the Nigerian political class. Festus Keyamo was an activist and lawyer who went after corrupt politicians who breached trust of public office in 2000s.  He fought like a wounded lion to ensured that justice was served. This was the primetime of Keyamo – people hailed him, loved him and commended him because he was fighting for many helpless, voiceless and powerless Nigerians. I reckon that where water may have…

by Dr Chukwuma Destiny Ogbonnaya I think that the greatest episode of the 2023 general elections should be titled ” Wike: Commander of the G5″. As a screenwriter, I can imagine that we are quite close to the climax of the 2023 general election drama. To avoid repetition, PO is HE Peter Obi; AA is HE Atiku Abubakar and BAT is Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Now, here are the possible scenarios that you should expect and the possible implications that may follow for the G5 and Nigeria at large. Scenario 1: G5 support PO or BAT as a whole. Scenario…

Power and politics affect every aspects of human life in any society. This is why citizens must eschew political aparthy and choose not to sit on the fence during elections.  When political actors are having their macabre dances, they do so with the knowledge that power dwells with the people in a democracy, even though the people hold that power in trust for God whom all powers belong to. Naturally, the people suffer, not God, when the people make poor political choices of who leads or governs them. There are two pathways that Ebonyi State may likely take towards 2023…
