Nigeria is no more a lad when it comes to the area of electoral processes. Since 1960 when the nation has been wearing the sovereign garment which marked the country as the independent one. We manage our potentials, we govern ourselves and no influence as during the colonialism. With three tiers of government, four years in office, as it is written down, there must be poll to fix out the credible leaders. Is all our elections bring credible leaders?
In Nigeria, except the June 12 1993 election that was marked locally, internationally as the credible one but the credible leader was not on the chair of honour. Only thing we heard afterward was the deceleration of his death. The country managed to live in destitute. It so ironical that a nation that is blessed with both human and natural resources can still bite her fingers at the end of the day. With the aim to halt this, Nigerians have been looking for ways of getting out this awful condition. One of the ways is election. Like the one conducted on Saturday in Anambra state, the election did not voice the masses opinion-it had to be canceled by the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC due to its incredibility. But another poll is knocking in 2015, Anambra poll is the epitome of 2015 election.
Since the leaders are not ready for the masses, let there be a new dawn to appear in the new day. Arise Nigerians! How would you cast your vote in 2015 general election? If a leader cannot help you, help the leader.
English the language of the colonial masters in Nigeria. Colonial masters bequeathed English to Nigeria as part of the ways of making Nigerians adopt their culture. Since language is part of the culture and culture is part of the language, Nigerians overwhelmingly adopted British culture and viewed it as the best gaze in the mirror. The prestige attached to British culture cannot be confiscated in English, the British language. However, many scholars with different opinions have argued on the existence of the English Language, whether it is a curse or blessing for the country. Some argued that, embracing English language is a curse to Nigeria, whereas some believe that it a force of blessing for the nation. The growth of the English language in Nigeria can be traced to the heterogeneous nature of Nigerian society. Nigeria is a country with many languages with at least of about 400 languages. Most of these languages are not mutually intelligible, that is, speakers of one la...
When you get to Aso Rock Help me inform his Excellency that I do not dislike him so much, just four things he made made me hate him: His change has change my boxers It made me change the Green Boxers that Maria bought for me and now put on the Black dusty one abandoned many years ago. His policies has taken all the yams in my barns and left the place empty with scars To remind me of when I was who I was In the past of my past with a future of it. He allowed hidden hands the right to build massive barns in a far land like a proud possessors of big bags yet they have nothing but revival of pains hidden in people' pride. Tell him to bring back our corruption and Take back his change that has looted us We can return all his polished tall brooms Let him leave us to perish more in our doom.

Over five decades now, Nigerians have been living in a great political dire, without actual changes, the level of poverty increases every day like the wild fire but no government has made their dreams become a reality for the large percentage of the citizens living in the country. There is no how far the snake long, we cannot set fire to it, equally to with its height – only idea is needed to kill the devil. The idea is ‘if money is spent, money will come;’ if citizens are given salary per month, government will also gain more money. How? With the total population of 138,283,240 as at 2008, the people, average Nigerian found it difficult to acquire three square meals per day. Relating to the national income, as at 2012, Nigeria GDP,Purchasing Power Parity, PPP, 3 rd largest within Africa (behind South Africa and Egypt); PPP trebled from $170billion in 2000 to $451 billion in 2012. That is the estimate of size of t...
