ADMIRAL AROGUNDADE, THE SLAVES, THE MASTERS AND THE END OF MILITARY´S BRUTALITY? by Dotun Oyeniyi November 19, 2008 No one should truly be amazed at the recent happening on Muri Okunola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos where some armed escorts attached to one Rear Admiral Harry Arogundade allegedly went completely berserk, beating an harmless lady, Uzoma Okere, like a goat that strayed into  the beans stall, and stripping her naked in full public glare. NigerianNews Special   NIGERIA AT 48: A GOVERNMENT AT WAR WITH ITS OWN PEOPLE by Dotun Oyeniyi October 02, 2008 Nigeria is 48 and as usual, governments at the Federal, State and Local levels have rolled out the drums. The heads of governments at different levels came out; their fresh, well nourished and mostly hefty bodies planted in immaculate dresses and their rotund cheeks sprouting forth a smile of derision to the wailing crowds of mostly hangers-on and beneficiaries of their administrations, sprinkled with innocent school children. These leaders are the current gladiators, the veritable commanders of the victorious troops in a protracted war against the people. NigerianNews Special   A SICK PRESIDENT OF AN UNHEALTHY NATION: PARADOX OF YAR’ADUA’S HEALTH AND NIGERIA’S HYPOCRISY. by Dotun Oyeniyi September 22, 2008 In the last of couple of weeks, the press has been awash with screaming headlines about the President’s health. “Where is our president? Nigerians ask”! “Dead or Alive?”! “Yar’Adua in critical condition”! “The President may not return early”, are some of the endless variant of the screaming headlines. NigerianNews Special   IYABO OBASANJO-BELLO: AN HONOURABLE LAWMAKER AS A FUGITIVE LAWBREAKER. by Dotun Oyeniyi April 28, 2008 Running away from justice should normally not be an issue for endless debates.  All criminals like to evade justice.  However when the fugitive happens to be an ‘Honourable Lawmaker’ of a nation, the probing sensibility of the masses will be greatly aroused. NigerianNews Special   FREEDOM FOR LT-COLONEL ISHAYA BAMAIYI: MUCH ADO ABOUT NIGERIA JUDICIAL SYSTEM by Dotun Oyeniyi April 23, 2008 No.  I am not making a mistake.  I mean Lieutenant-Colonel Ishaya Bamaiyi and not Lieutenant-General Ishaya Bamaiyi.  This is because I sincerely think that Nigeria should extend the attempted ‘decimalisation’ of the Naira, propounded by the CBN governor, Charles Soludo to our military ranks.  Soludo, we would recall, attempted to slash the value of the naira by one-tenth or so, so that if you had N1000 in the bank, it becomes N100, this according to him was because the naira is overvalued.  That novel proposition has now been rested on the presidency’s instruction. NigerianNews Special   ALAO-AKALA, THE TRIBUNAL VERDICT AND THE ‘ALAAFIN OF OYO STATE’ by Dotun Oyeniyi April 01, 2008 At last, the election tribunal has given its verdict in Oyo State. For good or for bad; with a 3 to 1 majority, the tribunal has reaffirmed INEC’s position by saying that Alao-Akala was duly elected as Governor in the last elections and therefore should continue to govern over the pacesetter state. NigerianNews Special   BARACK OBAMA AND THE LESSONS FOR NIGERIA, AFRICA AND THE WORLD. by Dotun Oyeniyi March 17, 2008 Before the emergence of this enigma called Barack Obama, It was really tempting to conclude that the last chapter in the world’s book of modern political heroes have been worthily grabbed by immortal Nelson Mandela. NigerianNews Special   419 LEGISLATORS IN THE HOUSE: HELPING ALIYU STATE THEIR NAMES by Dotun Oyeniyi February 04, 2008 Nigeria is at it once again. A nation that continues to craft a spectacular image for itself in terms of its ability to spring out to the whole world, in a repetitive and endless format, news of incredible events, which could only be thought to be in the realm of improbable fictional imaginations of Hollywood scriptwriters, but which are factual and played out in Africa most populous nation. NigerianNews Special   OBASANJO, ADEDIBU AND THE LEGACY OF THE PEOPLE’S DEMO-THUGGERY PARTY ((PDP) by Dotun Oyeniyi January 07, 2008 Let us sweep under the carpet, if just for this once, for the sake of objectivity, the seemingly unrestrained vituperation, both verbal and written, which our immediate past president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo had consistently and ceaselessly been receiving since his departure from office.
