In 1977, when Britain broke diplomatic relations with Uganda, Idi-Amin declared he had defeated the British and added “CBE” (Conqueror of the British Empire) to his title. Radio Uganda then announced his entire title: “His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Alhaji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.”

” In the name of a protest yesterday, El-Zakzaky’s supporters blocked traffic at the Zuba Bridge leading into Abuja. When an army vehicle tried to pass, they pelted it with stones and attempted over-powering the soldiers to snatch their weapons. It ended with three protestors dead and a flow of traffic for road-users. Only a fool will block military vehicles and assault soldiers in the name of human rights, but if these young men think that is not foolish, I urge them to continue. The army has enough ammunition to send every fool to his grave. Those who lament their…
BUHARI SPEAKS “God knows my heart it is to assure you that I set Nigeria on the path that you will be proud of in the future. There is difficulty while trying to bring change in the country, but we are trying our best, even our adversaries know we have taken the right course to set Nigeria on track, we offended these money bag politicians and they will never forgive us.

ATIKU/PDP SIDELINES PETER THE ROCK. Atiku had promised this man the Running Mate slot. For that reason, the man jettisoned his plan to escape before the 16th October end of his immunity. The calculation was that as running mate to the main opposition party Presidential Candidate, any attempt to arrest him would generate much noise that could draw international interpretation that Buhari was arresting him for being a formidable opponent. Peter must have been terribly shocked and betrayed when Atiku went for Peter Obi. Knowing how wounded Peteru the Rock is, Atiku would rather not allow the man to be…
The audacity of the EIU of the Economist magazine. It’s predicted an outright win for Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 presidential election. Peradventure Atiku does not win, the magazine says PDP will believe it’s rigged out and that there will be violence afterwards. I don’t know how the magazine arrived at that. But one thing I am cocksure of is that if Atiku loses, there won’t be any violence in the core north aftermath of his loss. In the north central, I doubt if there will be any violence there. What gains will accrue to the already decimated people protesting…
