This's one death too much for the Atakiiti clan of Akure kingdom. Sad indeed! An Opomulero you have become since the exit of the family  patriarch. Prophet Olugbenga Ojo, why so early? The thought of  your demise wells up morbid thoughts in us -- all  emphasising the vanity and futility  of human existence. Sun're o,  olufe!            The GPC Church  worldwide which you founded shall miss your pastoral and  prophetic absence; the Atakiiti clan have lost an icon of inestimable worth;  christiandom, friends, acquaintances, and of course humanity at large, shall sorely miss you, Egbon.   Rest on,  beloved, until me meet to part no  more!       May the good Lord, the Omniscient, grant your humble soul eternal rest and sufficient fortitude to the entire Atakiti family of Akure kingdom to bear this unfortunate loss.

Chief Bisi Akande, former Interim National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says the development of Nigeria’s political system is being curtailed by what he called monetisation of politics. Akande, stated this in a remark on Friday at the meeting of Osun APC Elders Forum also known as ‘Agba Osun’ in his country home, Ila.

BY Sanusi Lamido Sanusi Tribalism is not our problem. Tribalism and religion are artificial problems created by selfish leaders for their own personal interest. There are only two major tribes in Nigeria. The Elites and the Masses. Once you make lots of money, you belong to the elite tribe. When you are a commoner or suffering, you belong to the tribe of the masses. If you are an elite, and you need more power, or elective position, you sow seeds of tribalism and religion among the masses, so as to sway their emotion for your personal victory.
