ARE OUR LEADERS LISTENING TO THE PEOPLE’S SULTAN? by Dotun Oyeniyi February 01, 2010 I have a fervent admiration for the Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar.  We have not seen any Sultan like him in our recent history.  Unlike most of our traditional rulers, the Sultan is not one to frequent the corridors of power or churn out chieftaincy titles to the men in power in pursuit of vain glory or monetary rewards in return.  His utterances, since asscending the Sultanate, have always been incisive, frank, non-patronising of those in government and clearly pro-masses.  NigerianNews Special
RUNNING A SICK NATION FROM A SICK BED: BLAME NO ONE BUT OBASANJO by Dotun Oyeniyi January 28, 2010 History, so we all say, has a way of repeating itself.  However, history is only able to repeat itself because human beings tend to repeat our acts or inactions.  History is not self-made.  It is made   out of the deeds of human beings.   So when a bad history is repeated, it is either the author of that history is a gloating sadist, deriving some pleasure out of a bad situation or an obdurate personality refusing to learn from previous errors.    NigerianNews Special   Enter your search terms Submit search form   Web www.nigeriannews.com
