The Consolation in Trump’s Presidency – By Tochukwu Ezukanma

  By Tochukwu Ezukanma  | March 1, 2025 | Lagos, Nigeria | As far as I am concerned, Donald Trump is grossly detestable. He is arrogant, megalomaniac and bumptious.

President Tinubu and His Dangerous Experiment – By Tochukwu Ezukanma

By Tochukwu Ezukanma  | Lagos, Nigeria | July 29, 2024 – Just before the 2023 presidential election, Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu was at her oratorical best.  Like a Casanova wooing a credulous damsel, she was suave and charming.  She told her audience that “my husband and I” are already wealthy.

The Moral Blemish on the Tinubu Presidency – By Tochukwu Ezukanma

  By Tochukwu Ezukanma | Lagos, Nigeria | September 26, 2023 – With his Emi lokan bombast, Bola Ahmed Tinubu cut the image of a vainglorious megalomaniac, and struck many Nigerians as boastful and offensively self-assertive.

The Soldiers Must Remain in the Barracks – By Tochukwu Ezukanma

By Tochukwu Ezukanma | Lagos, Nigeria | September 16, 2023 – The earliest vestiges of democracy can be traced to the Greek city states.

A Presidential Victory that Will Not Stand – By Tochukwu Ezukanma

By Tochukwu Ezukanma | Lagos, Nigeria | May 24, 2023 –  After the presidential election, for days, I was distressed, totally flustered.
