 By Tunde Olusunle It was four days to his 57th birthday. Exactly five years ago on Sunday March 5, 2017, however, Onukaba Adinoyi-Ojo, one of Nigeria‘s finest, most innovative and most resourceful journalists of all time, died in continually befuddling circumstances. He had attended the 80th birthday celebration of his erstwhile benefactor and boss, Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigeria‘s pioneer president in the current democratic milieu in Abeokuta, earlier that day. He was being chauffeured back to his base in Abuja, by a kinsman and friend, Adas Sadiq, a chartered accountant.

According to accounts, Onukaba and his friend, ran into a roadblock mounted by armed ro...

Ordinarily, the north central states ought not to have being second fiddles in Nigeria but because we don't take the general interest of the people above personal interest, we walks a separate path and lost the fist for a common goal. When it comes to salvation, he who hesitates may be lost. It beats me hollow the sophomoric rashness with which other zones of country keep bulling the north central zone especially when it comes to issues of national concern as if they are politically insignificant.  The north central politicians are viciously oblivion of the fact tha...
