  The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reversed its suspension of former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose; and former Senate President, Pius Anyim. Other party chieftains whose suspension were reversed also are Ibrahim Shema, Dennis Ityavyar and Aslam Aliyu. The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, in statement on Thursday also said the party’s National Working Committee reversed the referral of the Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom to the National Disciplinary Committee. The PDP, Nigeria’s main opposition party, had a week ago suspended the party stalwarts over “anti-party activities”, even as the party continues to grapple with a myriad of internal issues that led to the suspension and consequent replacement of Iyorchia Ayu with Umar Damagum as the national chairman. However, the party’s spokesman, Ologunagba, in a statement on Thursday said the PDP NWC met and “extensively discussed” recent developments in the party. He said, “The NWC recognised the im...

By : Sammy Adeniyi People have said virtually everything that needed to be said about Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.  Hardly does a day go bye without somebody having something to say about him.  He is arguably the most discussed politician in Nigeria. Every March 29, Asiwaju marks his birthday and more revelations about him surfaces from testimonies of those who have been opportuned to have an encounter with him one way or the other. Even his political enemies couldn't help but join the fray and castigate him for all their political and personal problems. They go as much as blame him for everything both important and ridiculous.

President-elect of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Tinibu, says that the struggles and triumphs that people face throughout their lives serve as the foundation for a country's progress, but only a select few leaders have shown inspired courage and made supreme sacrifices.

By: Jubril Epe-CityJnr   That progress is highly desired is undoubtedly true. This is because there are gaps in every area, and someone competent is required to register its reconstruction. When it comes to collective responsibility, it is simple to preach about it but difficult to practice it, which is why AKINLOYE took a distinct and different stance. Akinloye provided constant advancements at a time when the populace is ravenous for progress and goodwill.

By: ADENIYI SEGUN ALEXANDRA. John C. Maxwell had stated in his opinion that, " leadership is not by title or ranks or offices; it is by influence ". This was right after all.
