Amongst the most dangerous people in Nigerian politics today are Peter Obi and Dati Baba Ahmed with their army of ignorant, fascist, violent, uncouth, frustrated, garrolous, racist, bigoted, misguided, radical, brash and rebellious supporters. I heard Dati the Daft warning our President and CJN not to allow our President-elect to be sworn in or else …
Courage under fire is a very rare commodity in the politics of Nigeria. There are fourteen people that never cease to amaze me when it comes to the display of that courage and standing up for truth regardless of the threats, insults, allegations, mendacities, harassment, falsehood and intimidation that they are subjected to on a …
Last Tuesday I was sent a video of an angry crowd of members of the opposition violently marching through the streets of our nations capital Abuja, loudly chanting and proclaiming that the INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmoud Yakubu, was nothing but “a thief” and that the inauguration of our President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which is …
I call on the British Govt. to recall Ben Llewellyn-Jones, the Dep. British High Commissioner, from our country for interfering in our internal affairs and attempting to involve himself in our politics. Like a bull in a China shop, he is bullish, uncouth, dangerousiy incompetent and painfully inconsiderate. He is better suited to work as …
These are my personal views and I am constrained to express them given the fact that one Ben Llwelyn-Jones, a misguided, mischievous and clearly unlettered Englander who does not know his place, threw away all caution and mentioned my name in his inglorious commentary.

As a consequence of the events of the last few days I am constrained to say that, like a rabid and mad dog that is foaming at the mouth, the Nigerian opposition, represented by the followers of Atiku Abubakar (Atikulators) and the followers of Peter Obi (Obidients), have lost control of their senses. They need …
“Don’t stay in Lagos, and benefit from the leadership, infrastructure and economy Lagosians built over time, yet carry resentment towards them. You threaten violence and de-market Lagos on social media. You have options. Behave or relocate!” – Reno Omokri. Let me open this short contribution by saying that I completely agree with the views expressed …
I studied filmmaking from Ohio University in the United States, but before then, I was an on-air personality and the very first voice to say ‘Welcome to 96.9 COOL FM Lagos” when we commenced transmission at Etim Inyang Crescent, Victoria Island on 1st October 1998. I love Lagos and I can proudly say that at …
I STAND WITH FFK AND SANWO OLU’S LAGOS RISING by Yakubu Lamai Read More »
I make no apology for saying the following. Lagos is NOT no-man’s land. It belongs to the Yoruba. Other than winning the Presidency, the most important thing for the Yoruba to do today is to ensure that Babajide Sanwo-Olu is re-elected as Governor of Lagos state. Outside of that we are finished as a race …
