Salient QUESTIONS for PDP surrogates. If Hundreds of BILLIONS of Naira were spent in the Construction Sector in RIVERS STATE? 1. The Sector should naturally be Booming. 2. When a Sector of an Economy experiences a Boom, there'd naturally be tremendous rise and proliferation of Indigenous Companies Participating in that Sector. 3. With the rise or proliferation of Indigenous Companies comes as a matter of natural consequence, JOB CREATION in the given Private Sector and it's ancillaries. This is a Development of a Middle Class. 4. From the Sectoral Boom, Proliferation of Local Companies and Middle-Class Employment, GOVERNMENT is expected to recover at least 10% of its INVESTMENT. 5. Further upon the DEVELOPMENT of the given Sector, and Indigenous Companies' participation, a visionary GOVERNMENT should have ensure the DEVELOPMENT of Indigenous Capacity and Government Standards for Quality Control. NOTE: Now, you as a responsive citizen must start asking the W...

We received with utter dismay and disgust the shocking revelation by the Rivers state Governor, Barr. Nyesom Wike, the plans by his administration to set aside a whooping N25billion to fund local vigilantes across the state in his characteristic blind and tactless approach to tackle insecurity in the state. This latest endeavor of Emperor Wike is not only saddening but expresses the very height of the directionlessness of his administration and monumental waste of Rivers funds due to absence of strategic plans and vivid roadmap to develop the state. We therefore want to remind him that his failure to attract investors to the state and his outright refusal to invest on human capital projects as against spending on frivolities is in part responsible for the unfortunate security challenges in the state. While a less endowed state like Abia which clearly values the talents and potentials of its youths can generate funds to empower and even sponsor youths abroad to enhance their ski...

Formally, Politics may refer to the methods, practices and procedures associated with running a government or more generally, an Organization. This definition makes very little sense to a layman especially when viewed through the lens of the Nigerian concept. In other parlance, politics encompasses  all those maneuvers, stratagems, diplomacy, lobbyings and conceptualizions within an organisation or between two or more persons aimed at gaining advantages over the other. This definition fits in properly and best describes the Nigerian concept of politics. It does relate very well to the layman's understanding of  what politics entails.  Theoretically, this is good and simple enough, but in practice it is not. We see acts and sly moves that inspire abhorrence for politics. The shenanigans, the penchant for violence, the desperation and the  attendant consequences, all make politics more earthy and repugnant. Whereas,  ideally, politics should aid and enc...

Governor Nyesom Wike produces names of notorious cultists and criminals operating in his state, Rivers. This is a clear indication that most of our governors (if not all), know all the criminals terrorizing innocent citizens in their domain, but chose instead to keep quiet, for reasons best known to them, while innocent lives are lost daily. This is the LIST of cultists, kidnappers and notorious criminals operating in Rivers State, as produced by governor Wike: OGBA/EGBEMA/NDONI LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA 1. OLUCHI IGWEDIBIA (a.k.a.
