Ayo Fayose, governor of Ekiti state, says dictatorship is returning to Nigeria with the sealing-off of the residences of Sambo Dasuki, a retired colonel and former national security adviser. He asked the president to put Boko Haram, and not Dasuki, under house arrest. In a statement issued on Friday on the two-day-old SSS siege to Dasuki’s residence in Abuja, Fayose said the persecution of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwarts and others perceived as opposed to the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led federal government “is an ominous sign of imminent return of dictatorship and draconian rule in Nigeria”. Maintaining that he believed the “invasion” does not have the blessing of President Muhammadu Buhari, Fayose said it is being done “by some people to please the president” and asked the president to check the excesses of those behind it. “Democracy is already being put on trial, less than two months that President Muhammadu Buhari assumed office… Rather than invading home...

While receiving a delegation of FCT Muslim community at the presidential villa this morning, Pres. Buhari narrated how his security detail was almost overwhelmed by some youths who were excited to see him as he left the Sallah prayer ground. According to him, the incident showed that policemen and soldiers cannot protect you, only God can. "Today, during and immediately after the prayers, I think I was bombarded by the youths who almost overwhelmed the security, and I had to hold tight to my gown to get to my car. I was advised to enter the car from the ADC side and I refused. I went across trying to wave my hand to the wild youths who wanted to see me. On an occasion like this, it shows that after what happened to President Ronald Reagan of the USA, it is only God Almighty that protects leaders because in a mob like this, anybody with a sharp knife can get access and do a lot of damage. So, all the policemen that were deployed and soldiers since ...

Who owns Ciroc vodka? Who owns Beats headphones? Who own RocknRepublic? The list goes on. What we do in Nigeria is to laugh at people's hustle.  And when it starts paying, creating jobs and moving the person to the next level, we are quick to ask why is the person living so large? Does he know how many people are hustling and going to bed hungry? But we don't consider the person's hustle in the beginning worthy of support. I am a strong Supporter of Nigerian Brands.  How many politicians bought this Koko Garri to give their supporters? But they gave imported rice abi? When Otunba Ghadaffi started his mobile toilets, people called him "Agbe po!!!" It wasn't for long, others joined DMT to do what he was laughed at. I know that a few think what's DBanj thinking to invest in Garri.  Newsflash!!!! I bet you all that is a $30b market. I have told him to start promoting it in hotels and restaurants. Wherever beans and moi-moi is served, ther...

There are no toilets,no clearly de...
