The Easter Morning... And the Lord is risen, trouncing the power of death and refusing the hold of the grave. The Lord is out from the grave, destroying the power of death and restoring the light of light. Through his resurrection, he became the first of the brethren to awake from death-sleep, inspiring the assurance that we too shall arise. To the living, it's to the joyful impression that our word, our fears shall dissipate and pass away. For all we shall symbolically rise up and out of them all to experience the light and joy of victory But then, here is the deepest significance of the Easter moment: That Christ destroyed subduing death by dying. That He restored disconnected life by rising. And that we shall also rise to see him in glory. #HappyEaster

On Tuesday, 7th of April, the governor of Rivers State led some security forces to the office of Caverton airlines to effect some arrests. Governor Nyesom Wike had ordered for the arrest of two Caverton pilots for flying into his state some expartriates, in violation of coronavirus disease regulations in his state. That action by Wike has seemingly pitted him against the federal government, with the federal minister of aviation, Hon Hadi Sirika, condemning Wike for acting ultra vires. Was Gov Wike right in his action? Was Minister Sirika right in his assertion? I will try to look at both stances and summarily reach a conclusion which would be obvious in the review itself. There was a border closure order in Rivers State, which was widely publicized and of which I think the Caverton airlines and its clearing authority, the Federal Ministry of Aviation- acting for the federal government  should have known. The order by the River state government was to the effect that all forms of entry

The novel Coronavirus disease, Covid-19, came with a shocking revelation. That the world, in the grip of its much taunted readiness to wade off any emergency, was not just making loudmouthed noise but was never prepared as it claimed. It took China by surprise, beating it off it's shrewdness- one that fed them with a false impression that they could have silently managed it and needed not to cry out to the global community. At China's inefficiency to curb the upscaling of the virus, an inefficiency defined by egoistic exertion, the novel virus meandered accross with such viral replicatory proficiency and spread across many other countries. The subsequent combined laxity and inefficiency of entire world gave it geometric flight and surged it into one global pandemic affecting every social, economical and political fabric of the entire world. Its impression has touched on all viable sectors of human lives. Because it's a human predicament, the Coronavirus has affected al

Covid-19, the novel respiratory infection is spreading fast, but it's  deadly impact is not as overcoming as the impact of the panic over it. We must maintain sanity in the midst of this global pandemic to win this global emergency. ††††††††††††††††††††††††††† This CORONAVIRUS... The heat of it shall become cool, The storm over it shall quieten, And the anxiety it carries filter away. The Coronavirus pandemic, The same way it came, Shall in no time fizzle away. We must for the time be quiet, And maintain the sanity befitting of victors, We must not let our panic flare over, That through it the viral enemy muster victory. Tho the tempest rages, it shall for a while be, In the end we shall come out triumphant, The human race, over the scourge, shall win, And the novel Coronavirus have an ending spin. But it must be by a focused commitment, To ensure that we keep clean and keep safe, Thro conscious hygiene and careful social gap, By self-isolating, by exposi

The novel coronavirus that broke out late December of 2019 in China, had come with a bold warning signal at least to the other most parts of the world. But the response this other parts evinced was something whose imbecility has become so visible with the now-grappling effect. It was a downplay whose ripple effect has seemed to have caught everyone unawares. But should it have? At the news of the outbreak of this COVID-19 in Wuhan, China, and then South Korea, it appeared most of this countries underestimated the capacity of this disease or rather saw it as a minor issue restricted to China, of which they weren't really to be bothered about. It just seems so, because the laissez faire that occasioned this spread was very obvious and something worrisome. The measure earlier taken by these countries in handling the now declared pandemic was to say the least not reassuring. This laxity was what gave boost to the wide and massive spread of this deadly virus. And this is very unfortu

As has being norm, the world has a special place for women today as today, worldwide, is marked as women's day. And today, the world talks about creating a gender balance for the expression of the rights of women. #Each4Equal Every 8th of March is recognized by the United Nations as International Women's Day, particularly to celebrate the gallantry of women and to appreciate the efforts of those who are alive and the memories of those of them that have passed on. It's a global event that seeks to celebrate and highlight the social, political, cultural and economic achievements of women around the world. And to look at it from this perspective, there abound women of different cultures, ages and professional callings that have distinguished themselves and are worthy of the celebration that they are offered today. Many women, realizing their inherent prospects, have gone beyond the primary responsibility of childbearing they're known for, into creating impacts by th

The Supreme Court on March 3 finally sat to hear the plea for a review of the judgment it delivered on the 14th of January that robbed the former deputy speaker of the Federal House of Representatives, Rt Hon. Emeka Ihedioha of his hitherto position as the governor of Imo state. In reviewing itself, the apex court remained unshaken, maintaining its earlier decision that brought in Hope Uzodinma. A dissatisfied Ihedioha had approached the court praying it to consciously take a second look at its decision, which according to him was based on some grave mathematical and technical errors that simply do not make any commonsense. It strongly contended with the outright award of the results from over 380 polling units presented by his opponent without carefully calculating and looking into their consequential effect on the overall voting dynamics. The whole world perused at this dissatisfaction and found out that it beats the imagination and condemned the outcome of such a verdict bas
