A Nomad In Aso Rock


Obviously when we all saw Buhari came back to Nigeria earlier yesterday, all his lovers became happy that finally our president is back and healthy, not mentioning the fact that some people never wished for his comeback.
I became more relaxed when I saw him onn channels TV as he came down from the flight in Kaduna. I became more confused immediately I got the news that president Buhari said Osinbajo will continue to be in charge of the office of the president. Why is Buhari not resuming to his office now that he is back in the country? Maybe his health is deteriorating , I guess.

The debate was rolling in my mind while I read a confirmed news that Buhari is going back to London in two weeks time and the issue got more complicated. A rational man will say: why did he return in the first place? Perhaps the constitution forced him to. The constitution has it that a president shall not be absent from his office(responsibilities) for sixty days straight. I hope your mind is getting the clue. Mr president had spent 49days in London and to avoid total eviction from office, he has to come back to Aso Rock before the lapse of sixty days. So on his departure to London in two weeks time as he has said, there will be another count of sixty days afresh.

  Apparently, this man is not fit for the job any longer, if at all, his health doesn't. This issue is not only rendering Nigeria a country with one man as the president and vice-president at the same time, but retrogressively affecting Nigeria as the country is responsible for Buhari's flight, health bills and all his finances down to the spoons and bowls in his kitchen both in Nigeria and where he resides in London at a time when the country is experiencing its worst economy. Hence he has turned to a nomad who wander around to look for settlement and has found it in London. Why not stay there and relinquish his office?
 We all have to say something whether it has effect or not. Shall we continue to bear the responsibility of one man even at our own expense?

Confrontation; But where Are The Other Cs Of Aluta

In the recent time, I have taken a keen interest in observing the success of Students Unionism is Nigeria and I have no record to put together of achievement of this association. The question should be:Why is students unions failing in all institutions and at the national level?   In the olden days, whenever the students send a signal of raising aluta force against any person(s) or constituted authority, irrespective of the cabal involved in the oppression, they begin to shiver and sought for a way of calming the infuriating mood in the students and quickly reach for a solution to please their agitations. And if this is not done, the oppressors stand to lose a lot by the force of the aluta struggle. Unfortunately, in our days, the more we raise aluta force, the worse we begin to lose our weight of victory. What was in the unionism of those days that has been lost in the recent time? Let me relate the eight months scenario in LAUTECH and the STAFEC struggle of TASUED to this note,

The Hitting Fire At TASUED

To silent the critics who have been throwing accusations at me for not saying anything on the issue of Save TASUED And Fund Education Coalition(STAFEC), I will declare my stance here and make my opinions known. Of all messages have received, the one which is of interest to me the most is the words of one Mr. FABULOUS which says "If you remain silent on the part of justice, you are already on the side of the oppressors", and I wouldn't deny that am only responding because of this and I'm going to give my response according to his words.   As a students, it should interest me to understand the situation of things before jumping into action so the captive won't end up as the captors' machinery. To start with, I will outline the cause of the grievance of the students -The increment in Acceptance Fee from #30,000 To #40,000 -School fees #76,500 -Increment of Vocational Studies Fee from #1000 to #25,000 -#10,100 tax clearance which students are enforced to pa
