As an African writer who has long been a keen fan and follower of the American socio-economic and political development over the decades and has a broad view of the American Revolution and its historic civil war.  I believe I equally have an extensive knowledge of what this great nation stands for and its indisputable contribution to liberty and democracy across the world.  So, for that reason, I found it crazy that a nation that produced some of the most resilient and famous politica

…And Death stole my Mother

Image
  By Ahmed Dodo    Death stole into my life on the 10 th , April, 2024 in its habitual unannounced nature and cogently stole my MOTHER away. On this unforgettable day, I lost my most precious and unquantifiable jewel at the time Muslims across the world were celebrating the Eid-el-fitri (Small Sallah) after the holy month of Ramadan.  Her death was painful, but my solace in Almighty Allah as the owner and giver of everything under the sun reinforced my faith, cheered up my broken heart  and spurred  me  more into submission to the power of the creator who always decides when and where it will always Be!.   My mother Malama Hauwawu  Aliyu  Umar was God’s light in my life. She was the full space that occupied all my striving and all the vanity treasure I ever owned, dream to own and planned to own. She was the positive element that daily spurred me to go forward and the soft voice that always propelled me to be patient and be kind. She was the ray that always shines brightly when

Nigeria a BETRAYED Nation

Image
Who Betrayed Nigeria? The Nigerian nation no doubt is one of the naturally endowed nations under the sun with vast concentrations of anything made by God. It’s been 58 years since the British colonist packed their baggage, filled with their culture, ideologies and vision out of the rich black nation. They left the heterogeneous country in the hands and tricks of the people. But something glaring seemed to have bedeviled Nigeria since then – underdevelopment in all facets of the country’s socio-economic and political structure. Who betrayed this giant and still holding it to ransom despite its size, strength and strive? Could it be the under listed? •The Nigerian bogey politicians and their bogey policies and visions? •The Nigerian judiciary and their arbitrary segregated and discriminatory laws? •The self-centered and self-fortified Nigerian elites and their returnees of offspring and stooges? •The colonist, the capitalist and the new modern invaders? •The politicized Nigerian

Ahmed Bobboi: the Man who changed the Face of PEF

‘’The mark of a great man is one who knows when to set aside the important things in order to accomplish the vital ones.’’ -- Brandon Sanderson By Ahmed Ali Among the first positive things Ahmed Bobboi did when he took over the mantle of leadership at the Petroleum Equalization Fund (PEF) was to introduce a staff posting and deployment policy, the first of its kind in the history of PEF. It was a sign that the Petroleum Equalization Fund was into a new dawn. Not many people, even among the staff envisioned the remarkable positive change that was to take over the running of affairs of this important government agency when President Muhammadu Buhari appointed Ahmed Bobboi as the Executive Secretary of Petroleum Equalization Fund (Management) Board in October 2016. Although many who worked with him or have came in contact with the unassuming public servant described him as a man full with ideas and very passionate in doing his job. Ahmed Bobboi no doubt has etched
