By Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | May 10, 2015 – I have been dismayed by three recent developments, which I believe pose very serious threat to the prevailing ‘fragile’ peace in the country. I use the word ‘fragile peace’ deliberately because even though the Armageddon predicted to follow the presidential elections of March 28 […]
By Dr. Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | April 21, 2015 – Given the tensions that overheated the polity during the campaigns, we are all relieved it is now all over. Thankfully the predicted Armageddon failed to happen, proving once again that perching on the precipice is the country’s comfort zone. The winners are revelling; […]
By Dr. Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | April 18, 2015 – Retired Muhammadu Buhari’s recent victory at the polls has given aggressive vent to the aphorism that success has many fathers while failure is an orphan. Many APC partisans are regaling in ‘I told you so’, while several merchants of fortune scamper for media […]
Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | March 10, 2015 – A recent discussion with a friend over the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) informed my decision this week to reflect on the organisation, what its sponsors probably want and the organisation’s possible trajectory. My opinion of TAN is that it has achieved both fame and […]
By Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | Feb. 21, 2015 – Obasanjo is a very fascinating personality – full of contradictions like the rest of us. He is deeply admired, deeply distrusted and deeply loathed in equal measures. I read most things written about him. Obasanjo’s latest public act of tearing his PDP membership card […]
By Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | Feb. 13, 2015 – I will like to start this disinterested intervention in the media feud between Professor Chukwuma Soludo, former Governor of the Central Bank and Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Co-ordinating Minister of the Economy, with a full disclosure: I have known Soludo from our undergraduate days (1980-1984) […]
By Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | Feb. 5, 2015 – The recent advert by Ayo Fayose, the controversial governor of Ekiti state, in which he presented photographs of some formers rulers of the country from the North who died in office and then used innuendo to ask if retired General Muhammadu Buhari would suffer […]
By Dr Jideofor Adibe | NNP | Jan. 26, 2014- My technical report for the Brookings Institution’s Africa Foresight publication on the 2015 presidential election entitled ‘The 2015 Elections in Nigeria: Issues and Challenges’, has become an issue between the PDP and the APC. As should be expected in an election year, one side wants […]
By Dr. Jidoeofor Adibe | London, UK | April 18, 2014 – Politics is in the air and jostling for 2015 has simply begun in earnest. Anyone telling you otherwise is either living in another planet, trying to undercut the competition or simply being dishonest. We saw another evidence of this when Governor Babangida Aliyu […]
By Dr. Jideofor Adibe | London, UK | March 09, 2014 – One of news that dominated the media early last year was the alleged shoddy investigation by the police of the murder of Comrade Olaitan Oyerinde, who was until his cruel assassination on May 4 2012 the Principal Private Secretary to the Edo State […]
