WHERE IS THERE NO CORRUPTION IN NIGERIA? AISHA BUHARI IS BLOWN OUT, FAYOSE...

The battle is raging hot as regards the claims by Governor Fayose alleging that the nation’s First Lady Hajia Aisha Buhari was involved in a bribery scandal involving a US Congressman.
Fayose relived the controversy on Monday, June 20, stressing the role played by Buhari’s wife, in the messy bribery scandal involving Williams Jefferson.
Aisha Buhari has been accused of being involved in a bribery scandal.
The Ekiti state governor’s reaction comes bare hours after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) froze his account, claiming that the antigraft agency is investigating suspicious movements of money into the governor’s account.
Nigerians have taken to social media to air their views for and against the claims made by Governor Fayose, some saying that it was high time such secrets are exposed; while others believe that Fayose should just dance to the music he has been playing.
Taiwo Adegbuyi Omoniyi said: “Who is investigating Jagaban, Fashola, Ameachi, Oshiomole, Okorocha, Aisha Buhari, and even Buhari as PTF chairman. Truly there is no saint among them.”
Idowu Olawolu said: “Who is a better democrat now? Or who is a repentant democrat or a true democrat now? There must be no freedom of Speech again. So Gov Fayose should keep shut, Nigeria press should keep shut, opposition party should keep shut or else all of you will be dealt with by my boss. Sharrap!!!! No talking, No complaint, No criticism. We are moving Nigeria to a greater height in the regime of CHANGE.”
“EFCC are only very active when it has to do with the opposition. They want to silence as many that are outspoken. FFK’s crime was the he speak the truth with no strings attached. They summoned him and detain him till today without any fair hearing. If not that immunity covered Fayose, he would have been their prey. Too bad that we are in a country where freedom of speech is only practiced in he paper,” Amaka Meg said
Tina Ehidiame said: “Shame on this APC government they can’t stand opposition so they always look for ways to shut people from talking! Femi kayode is still in detention because he opposes the wrong of this administration and now its Fayose who has immunity! What is their problem and yet they claim they are fighting corruption! Is this not corruption? Is it only the PDP that did campaign during the last elections? Where did the APC get the money they used for their own campaign? What Nigerians that are supporting this rubbish don’t know is that if there are no opposition the govt won’t sit up! Opposition puts govt in check and in place! May God save Nigeria.”
Grace Uki Agbebaku said: “Take it or leave it our president is gradually turning himself to a dictator and a semi god who can’t be criticized. This is not good for our democracy. For democracy to thrive anywhere in the world there must be critics. I am totally in support of fighting corruption but I am against hunting down those you perceive as enemies and those who criticize some of your policies. It’s a world were opinions and views on issues defers.”
“On a serious note the house and the senate should call Mr President and his bulldog EFCC to order things are getting out of hand and Nigeria is breaking, inflation rate is increasing people are dying judiciary is no more effective people are suffering, Mr president is ill, economy ill, no road no light no fuel yet the bulldog keep on attacking the opposition on a serious note this bulldog should be abolished,” Emmanuel Ogbonna said.
Obidike Christina Amaka said: “That’s d major reason why the US government attacked Buhari on US daily post newspaper telling him that a thief cannot probe a thief,this information is so deep to be taken as a mere rumour or lies, very interesting, Mr buhari denied Abacha’s loot, dropped the Halliburton case all of a sudden,he is not a saint after all.

The Sphere

Photograph by Elena Saavedra Buckley. Once when I was about twelve I was walking down the dead-end road in Albuquerque where I grew up, around twilight with a friend. Far beyond the end of the road was a mountain range, and at that time of evening it flattened into a matte indigo wash, like a mural. While kicking down the asphalt we saw a small bright light appear at the top of the peaks, near where we knew radio towers to occasionally emit flashes of red. But this glare, blinding and colorless, grew at an alarming rate. It looked like a single floodlight and then a tight swarm beginning to leak over the edge of the summit. My friend and I became frightened, and as the light poured from the crest, our murmurs turned into screams. We stood there, clutching our heads, screaming. I knew this was the thing that was going to come and get me. It was finally going to show me the horrifying wiring that lay just behind the visible universe and that was inside of me too. And then, a couple se...

The Private Life: On James Baldwin

JAMES BALDWIN IN HYDE PARK, LONDON. PHOTOGRAPH BY ALLAN WARREN. Via Wikimedia Commons , licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0 .   In his review of James Baldwin’s third novel, Another Country , Lionel Trilling asked: “How, in the extravagant publicness in which Mr. Baldwin lives, is he to find the inwardness which we take to be the condition of truth in the writer?” But Baldwin’s sense of inwardness had been nourished as much as it had been damaged by the excitement and danger that came from what was public and urgent. Go Tell It on the Mountain and Giovanni’s Room dramatized the conflict between a longing for a private life, even a spiritual life, and the ways in which history and politics intrude most insidiously into the very rooms we try hardest to shut them out of. Baldwin had, early in his career, elements of what T. S. Eliot attributed to Henry James, “a mind so fine that it could not be penetrated by an idea.” The rest of the time, however, he did not have this luxury, as pub...

The Rejection Plot

Print from Trouble , by Bruce Charlesworth, a portfolio which appeared in The Paris Review in the magazine’s Fall 1985 issue. Rejection may be universal, but as plots go, it’s second-rate—all buildup and no closure, an inherent letdown. Stories are usually defined by progress: the development of events toward their conclusions, characters toward their fates, questions toward understanding, themes toward fulfillment. But unlike marriage, murder, and war, rejection offers no obstacles to surmount, milestones to mark, rituals to observe. If a plot point is a shift in a state of affairs—the meeting of a long-lost twin, the fateful red stain on a handkerchief—rejection offers none; what was true before is true after. Nothing happens, no one is materially harmed, and the rejected party loses nothing but the cherished prospect of something they never had to begin with. If the romance plot sets up an enticing question—Will they or won’t they? — the rejection plot spoils everything upfront:...
