Buhari must work towards the unification of Nigeria

The government of President Buhari, beyond making June 12 Nigeria's democracy day, beyond naming the stadium after late Chief MKO Abiola, must be able to unite Nigeria.

Some people who are not members of the ruling APC, may not be convinced that President Mohammed Buhari can unite Nigeria, because they perceive the government as being more pro-military.

When you see an executive arm of government trying to control everything, legislature, judiciary, and the media, that is military, and it calls for concern.

Today people expected that the government should have engaged in a unification process. That is why the day June 12 was first addressed by Buhari, everybody hailed him, even those who were at that time, grumbling. People expected Buhari to start from that moment, and continue bringing people together. People expected the government to invite opposition leaders, because a lot of them would have honored that invitation.

If you recall, immediately after June 12 crisis, people were already clamouring for government of national unity. That was why when interim government came in, people were disappointed that it didn't live up to expectation.

So we are hoping that APC leaders, who are pro-democracy, will be able to address the situation that will ensure that the president instills some element of unification in this incoming leadership, because they stand to gain a lot.

In a nutshell, the unification of Nigeria is more important than the economic growth which critics are using as their basis for judging this government negatively.

Lies! This man died since 2012- LEDAP

News circulated last week about one Mr Olatunji Olaide, who was imprisoned for 24 years, for a crime he never committed, by the leader of the Joint Legal action Aids(JLAA), Kinsley Ughe. Well an NGO, Legal Defence And Assistance Project (LEDAP), has refuted the claim, revealing that Mr Olaide died in 2012, shortly after he was released, and that no one should make any cash donation on his behalf. They have these to say; Our attention has been drawn to the fraudulent reports circulating on social media platforms requesting for cash donations from the members of the public to assist Olatunji Olaide who spent twenty four years in prison for an offence he never committed. We were also notified that one Mr. Kingsley Ughe, the Chief Lawyer of Joint Legal Action Aid claimed to have represented Mr. Olatunji Olaide at the Court of Appeal on his conviction for murder. This information is a gross misrepresentation of facts. Late Olatunji Olaide was convicted by Honourable Justice A. O....

Naija2dcore Newspaper review of June 7

In our today's mainstream Nigeria newspaper review of Friday, June 7, we are going to focus on the suspension of AIT/Raypower, Emir Sanusi's misappropriation of N3.4b, Goje Lawal's endorsement, Battle of the Deputy Senate's seat and many more. PDP, NGE, Others bash FG, as NBC suspends AIT/Raypower. In all honesty, every reasonable Nigerian should be worried that this is happening in a democracy. It is more like there is an attempt to shackle the media, from what we are seeing. Today it is AIT, tomorrow you don't know who will be next. I just also want to hope that the president is not aware of how this started, and that he will intervene. Perhaps this is just the action of an overzealous head of government agency. Somebody who is a journalist. For crying out loud, Lanre Modibo Kawu has spent a better part of his career as a broadcast journalist on radio, and also a columnist on so many news papers, before getting this appointment. And he used to be...
