My Sad Sorry Story A day I will never forget that ruins my chances of ever being normal again. Called  me a Drama Queen but I would rather be that than anything else. On this said day...oh...the thought of it gives me chills, I'd wish I could purge the memory off me.     But before I continue with my tale, I'll not have you feeling sympathetic on my behalf because I take full responsibility for my actions on this unfortunate day. "Enough with the digression!" I tell my annoying heart, vengeful memory and fantastic pen.       My cousin, of whom I dearly love walked up to me that unfortunate day with a gloomy countenance informing me he had something of utmost importance to say. My cousin, who was known to be the bad egg in our family was my favorite family member apart from my siblings, of course. I was apprehensive when I saw the sad look on his face and I vowed to erase that look. If I had known I would have turned a blind eye at the expression and con...

The perpetual jamb customers  who keep writing jamb even till their final year just to exit this 'lowly rated' faculty of teachers, everyone else reading this piece with the intention of still exiting the faculty,and every other individual, who, owing to fate and serendipity, have ended up as educationists-in-training Although Albert Einstein posited that 'It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy, creative expression and knowledge', the inexorable surge in the number of disenchanted teachers-in-tra...

In 34 years, Nigerian sportsmen and ladies have settled Nigeria's name solidly on the map of awesome sporting countries.

THE STATE OF THE UNION: AN INSIDER'S PERSPECTIVE BY HON. JIGAN "As long as the world shall last, there shall be wrongs, and if no man rebelled, those wrongs would last forever"- Clarence Darrow I got back to campus this session after about a week of official resumption. On arrival, i was greeted with tasty stories of politicking and counter politicking being played by the President and Speaker of the house respectively. Word on the street was the Speaker, like the proverbial Ladoke Akintola, had turned the political tables in his favour by flipping the script he was handed by the President. He had out played the President by making sure that those in whom the President was pleased never assumed office. Most notably the Budgetary and Finance Committee of the Union and the Judicial Council of the Union . Shortly after my arrival on campus, another Parliamentary sitting was called. Notable among issues discussed at this sitting was the issue of the newly constituted commi...

AFCON qualifiers: Bafana Bafana arrives Wednesday The South African Football Association has confirmed that the Bafana Bafana delegation will fly to Nigeria on Wednesday ahead of Saturday’s Africa Cup of Nations with the Super Eagles slated for the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo. Meanwhile, 21 invited Super Eagles players, alongside their technical crew and backroom staff, have commenced training sessions today ahead of Saturday’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

Tokelo Rantie scored both goals, before left –sided midfielder Sone Aluko also replied with a brace – something that is a usual occurrence in matches between both nations. Before Rantie and Aluko, Rashidi Yekini (of blessed memory), p...

Every day I wore this shirt, I did it with the illusion of always. “Today I can only thank all of you who have supported me, that you have written this beautiful story with me. Thanks ...

South Africa slips into recession South Africa has entered recession for the first time in eight years, data from Statistics South Africa showed on Tuesday. Data from Statistics South Africa in Pretoria showed the first quarter contraction was led by weak manufacturing and trade.

Zidane surpasses Guardiola , Mourinho I N just 512 days Zinedine Zidane has turned Real Madrid around, winning two Champions Leagues and a LaLiga title in his first year and a half in the dugout of the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu – not to mention the UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup successes. That means the Frenchman has already equalled the European Cup tallies of two of the other highest-rated coaches in world football, Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho In 17 months he already has as many Champions League medals in his pocket as the Portuguese coach – who has been managing for 15 years – and as the Catalan coach – who now has nine seasons of coaching experience. Already he left his mark on Real Madrid as a player, by helping them towards their ninth European Cup with his volley in Glasgow, but now he is having just as great an impact from the sidelines. What he has achieved this season makes him the best coach at the moment and it is near impossible that he...

Crude oil price drops, threatens Naira, 2017 budget Nigeria’s excess crude oil revenue has dropped by five per cent as oil prices fell to $49.26 per barrel yesterday, posing fresh threat to implementation of the yet unsigned 2017 budget and the exchange rate of the naira. President Muhammadu Buhari presenting the 2017 Budget before a joint session of the National Assembly on Wednesday, December 14, 2016. Specifically, the nation generated about $114 million from the export of about two million barrels per day in May, 2017 when prices stood at $57 per barrel. But the revenue dropped to $108 million yesterday when oil prices crashed from over $50 per barrel to $49.29 in the global market.
