Nigeria’s calumny campaigners got a brand new agenda recently when former Education Minister, Oby Ezekwesili, in her usual mudslinging, ridiculously and shamefully stated on Channels TV that, “President Buhari sent the Kankara schoolboys on an excursion to terrorists.” Oby’s all negative vituperations on the President since 2015 is understandable and un-worrisome. But, very worrisome is the bandwagon effect her nefarious conversations are having on gullible Nigerians. To be sure, since she made that statement on Channels TV, a growing body of comments on the Kankara schoolboy's abduction has been as nefarious as hers.

On Friday, April 16, 2021, one of the fathers of Nigeria's Diplomatic Service, and early crafters of the country’s Foreign Policy, Ambassador Blessing Akporede Clark, marked his 91st birthday. Sandwiched between elder statesman, Chief EK Clark and his immediate younger brother, late playwright, Prof JP Clark, "BA" as his peers around the world know him, was born on that date in 1930 in Kiagbodo, which at the time was in Warri Province of then Western Region. Unlike his more media gripping siblings, this giant in global affairs, is conservative, taciturn, sober and restrained, even after exit from active public life.

The death of Innocent Chukwuma hit the airwaves early on Easter Sunday, 4th April 2021. Coming after the sudden death of another illustrious activist, Yinka Odumakin on 2nd April 2021, news of the death of Innocent the next day suggested that fate was being unfair to Nigeria taking away two patriotic and eminent Nigerian activists - Odumakin on Friday and Innocent on Saturday. The sunset for both in a most inauspicious time and prime, the mid-50s.

NOT MUCH BETTER THAN BUHARI:

What began as a crude joke for Nigerians is beginning to take a life its own: Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for President in 2023. It's such a moment when you are torn between the two extreme emotions of tears and laughter. Is this how far Nigeria has evolved? You would moan bitterly? Then again you remember that this man could never win a presidential election in Nigeria even if he ran against himself; you would chuckle...

"Many a cross we bear is of our own manufacture; we made it by our sins. But the cross which the Savior carried was not His, but ours. One beam in contradiction to another beam was the symbol of our will in contradiction to His own. If Innocence itself took a Cross, then how shall we who are guilty complain against it?"_ -Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen.
