The remains of Bolanle Raheem, the female lawyer who was killed by a trigger-happy police officer were laid to rest last Wednesday in Lagos. The circumstance surrounding the death of Bolanle is too gruesome to say the least.

To be killed right in front of one’s family and on their way back from Church on a Sunday that happens to be Christmas Day is simply too heavy to bear. But we trust that God will give the family left behind, especially the young husband who has suddenly become a widower and children made motherless on a day that they were looking forward to spending the

“And there will be enough goat’s milk to feed you, To feed your household, and to sustain your servant girls.” – Proverbs 27:27. milk consumption

A healthy drink – Milk, is the first food we consume when we are born. Breast milk provides the ideal nutrition for infants during their first months of life. Children are encouraged to drink up their milk so that they can “grow up big and strong.” Do we, however, tend to stop drinking this nutritious beverage, milk, as we grow older? Even as adults, should we still drink milk?

CAF has decided on defending champion Atlas Lion who pulled out from the tournament due to flight disagreement with host Nation Algeria. CAF said that group C which Morocco is supposed to be in will remain with three teams and the first two will qualify for the next round.

Morocco had in December threatened to pull out of the biennial tournament unless they were allowed to fly in directly from their capital, Rabat, aboard the country’s national airline, Royal Air Maroc (RAM), a demand they sent to Caf but which Algeria flatly rejected.

In the appalling arrangement of child marriage across Nigeria and the world, those who marry children are as guilty as those who marry off children in what is a grand but grievous theft.

All those who get involved, including all those who consent either by their silence or compliance are thieves of the worst kind – from girls barely off their mothers’ breast they steal a childhood, a girlhood and more damningly a future.

Dear General,

I sincerely hope this letter meets you in your usual high spirits. A boy advising his father is rather a very difficult task. His effort can easily suffer ad hominem (the advice being misconstrued as directed against the person rather than the position they are maintaining). In traditional Nigerian society also, a son cannot chide his father openly. An Igbo adage states, If a boy lifts his father his sight will be covered by the old man (his father)’s scrotum.

A swan lets out one last croaky cry and wild kick before giving up the ghost. That is the bird’s one last gasp of air and futile attempt to clutch to life. Governor Nyeson Wike and his G5 Governors now cut such a tragic sight.

Historically speaking, crowds are often fickle in reasoning. This is accentuated by a recent statement credited to Prof Chukwuma Soludo, the current governor of Anambra state. Charles Chukwuma Soludo, a Nigerian politician and Professor of Economics who wrote: “History Beckons and I will not be Silent (Part 1),” he described, the popular bandwagon fallacy, ‘crowd’ mentality as “Headless mobs” a large number of people incapable of independent reasoning and ability to interrogate issues beyond reasonable doubt. The same characteristics of “Headless mobs” replicated from the situation in the ancient days when the crowds that hailed Jesus at his triumphant entry later turn against him and cry for his crucifixion. Such is a validation of the symbiotic relationship between the...
