By Mondy Selle Gold Professor Mondy Selle Gold PhDs History rarely announces its turning points with trumpets. More often, it whispers through moments of tension, restraint, and choice. Rivers State today stands at such a moment, poised between the gravitational pull of its past and the demanding promise of its future. In this delicate interval, two figures dominate the political horizon: Honorable Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, the indefatigable architect of a transformative era, and His Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, the quietly resolute steward entrusted with consolidating peace and translating governance into lived prosperity. It would be both uncharitable and historically dishonest to deny Nyesom Wike his due. His imprint on Rivers…

By Vitus Ozoke, PhD (on Opinion Nigeria), December 30 2025 If politics were only local, Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s path to 2027 would be determined almost entirely by domestic maneuvering, party discipline, and the blunt advantage of incumbency. But politics is no longer merely local – if it ever was. In today’s world, power is exercised as much through perception and narrative as through ballots and institutions. And it is in this terrain that Bola Tinubu faces his most serious vulnerability. Bola Ahmed Tinubu has governed Nigeria as if global power dynamics stopped evolving sometime in the early 2000s. That illusion…

For everything under heaven, there is an appointed time. For Nigeria, that time is now and its clearest marker is 2027. With the official declaration of H.E. Peter Obi for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a new political moment has arrived. It is a moment defined not by party labels alone, but by a moral choice: APC versus Nigerians. I write today not as a proud Nation builder, uniting Diaspora human resources with endless potentials and opportunities…

History has placed a solemn responsibility in our hands, and how we respond will determine whether Nigeria continues its drift or begins a deliberate march toward renewal. In moments such as this, leadership is best demonstrated by example. That is why I draw deep inspiration from the work of our…

By Roy Ofori, African Heritage Global Affairs Editor. 26 December 2025 Petition by Concerned Nigerians in Diaspora (CND), in collaboration with ADC-DN is gaining traction at global stage.

Concerned Nigerians in Diaspora (CND), in collaboration with ADC-DN, say the answer is a resounding no. A Longstanding Democratic Exclusion: For decades, successive…

By Hon. Kenneth Chibuogwu Gbandi In my last op-ed, reiterated again during my recent media engagements on Quest FM & TV, Ugbolu, and DBS Asaba, both in Delta State, I warned that Renewed Hope had dangerously transformed into Renewed Fear: a fear that justice in Nigeria is no longer anchored on law, fairness, or democratic accountability, but on loyalty to power and silent submission to impunity. Today, that fear has grown deeper and more justified. What is being presented to Nigerians as tax reform increasingly appears to be something far more troubling, the quiet weaponization of taxation. In any functioning…
