Entrepreneurialism - The Answer to Nigerian Youth Unrest
There is no denying the fact that Nigeria has had more than its fair share of national misfortunes. The decades following independence from British colonial rule in 1960 saw this strategically located sub-Saharan nation plunge into political uncertainty and economic disintegration. Non-inclusive policies and a historic overdependence on oil exports left the vast majority of Nigerian's in abject poverty and appalling human development conditions. The return of democracy in 1999 finally brought with it the promise of positive change, as Abuja announced ambitious plans to reverse its downward spiral in global rankings and effect radical transformation in the lives of its people. For Nigeria,
Nigerian Politics - Nigerians Say Leave Us Alone
Nigeria is today known for good and bad but the truth is that the problems of the country is often exacerbated by the attitude of those from the outside world who only see the bad side of the citizens of this great nation. The truth of the matter is that there is no single nation in existence today that is free of all the accusations leveled against Nigerians internationally. As a Nigerian, it is personally painful to me that Nationals of other countries especially our own African brothers are beginning to exhibit behaviors that one can at best describe as envious towards Nigerians, this seeming malicious attitude is fast spreading against hardworking Nigerians all over the world
Nigerian Politics - Sos on Nigerian Public Schools
I hope our government is reading this very article which is joining a whole lot others from different voices overtly calling on our federal government to quickly intervene in the present long neglect and crisis our education system has found itself. If the Nigerian government fails to act now, very soon the country will become the only country in the world without education. It is quite unfortunate that while other small nations of the world are determinedly structuring its education sector to lead to the growth and development of these countries, the case of Nigeria has been discard public schools and set up a any school of your own if you can.

Nigerian Politics - Ogwashi-uku: politics, anger and restitution
OGWASHI-UKU: POLITICS, ANGER AND RESTITUTION. By Chris Okafor
The year 1999 will go down in Nigerian history. It was a significant year and hugely important to any student of history for it chronicled the beginning of the present democratic structures that we found ourselves.
It was the year that Nigerians finally said goodbye to the dictatorial military rule and their obnoxious incursion into politics. It appears that within that period of military rule, Nigerians have no directions. Few civilians that were privileged to work under the military had no direction either as they were being told, at any given time, what and what not to do. No one could raise a voice on what the

Nigerian Politics - Security and the Rule of Law For Nigerian Enterprise Development and Revolution
As significant a development as it was, the return of relative political stability did not bring about the automatic cessation of internal divides and hostilities that one might have wished for. Nigeria's volatile economic and political unity continues to be a threat to its security and stability. The existence of potentially destabilising forces within its boundaries has long been obvious to the international community. Radical separatist groups, some demanding devolution and others autonomy, have sprung up across both northern and southern territories. Although more of a recent phenomenon, growing Islamic extremism is emerging as another point of grave concern for Abuja. The

His Excellency Godswill Akpabio Speech to Mr President at the Gala Night Event
Mr President's Speech (UYO STADIUM)
Mr President's Speech To The People Of Akwa Abasi Ibom State
Akwa Abasi Ibom State: Children's Cultural Display
Godswill Wins Akwa Ibom 26 April Bloody Governorship Election.
 |
| Great Security During Election, But Anti-PDP Did not stop the Fighting. |
Mr Akpabio who contested under the platform of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) won majority of the votes cast in the state, defeating his main contender, John Akpanudoedehe of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN).
The party won 29 out of the 31 local government areas excluding Uyo and Uruan local government areas where the ACN won. This means that, his great works like the provision of constant electricity, goodroads, the creation of the Akwa Ibom State University of teahnology, and much more development across Akwa Ibom has being recognised by the citizens and residence of the state.
The PDP had a total of 957,585 votes to emerge as the winning party out of a total 1,648,808 votes cast, while the ACN had a total of 163,449 votes to emerge second closely followed by the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) with 15,660 votes.
Announcing the results, returning officer in the state, Comfort Ekpo said though there were pockets of election malpractices, the results were okay to be presented.
"We have come a long way. Though we had some form of malpractice along the line, party agents should take the election results as the overall presented for the office of the governor."
Party rejects results
The Director General of Akpanudoedehe campaign organisation, Udoma Ekarika had earlier noted that the ACN had rejected the results of the election, and called on INEC to cancel it.
The party accused the PDP of several electoral fraud and irregularities including the use of hired thugs in police and army uniforms to intimidate and shoot at the voters.
The electoral frauds mentioned were, "forcing people to vote for the PDP, beating people up, snatching ballot boxes and papers, shooting to intimidate voters, deliberate delay of delivery of materials and commencement of voting, refusal to deliver vital materials such as inks, pads, and result sheets".
He said electoral irregularities were witnessed in local governments like Uyo, Ibiono Ibom, Ibesikpo, Nsit Ibom, Nsit Ubium, Uruan, Etinan, Ikot Abasi and Itu.
In announcing the results for their local government areas, returning officers for the council areas reported that the elections were relatively peaceful.
They explained that there were many incidents of ballot-box snatching, intimidation of corps members and resistance of electoral officers in some areas.
The use of guns and eruption of fighting in few units made some corps members abandon their duty posts, and led to the cancellation of elections in about 51 units across the state.
Nigerian Politics - Help! Some Nigerians are Returning Home to Join the Bandwagon
It is commonplace for any citizen of any nation to aspire to return home from sojourn in the diaspora to assist in the task of nation building. Lots of people have retreated back to their motherlands and really made their marks positively on the sands of time, bringing in workable management styles acquired in more organised societies to their less endowed nations in sustainable development.

Nigerian Politics - THE IMPACT OF NIGERIAN STOCK EXCHANGE CRISES ON THE NIGERIAN ECONOMY
Chapter one
1.1 background of the study
Nigeria has a formal and active capital market. Before 1961, almost all formal savings and deposits went through the banking system while the then colonial masters invested major capital balances for the country on the London stock exchange. However, following the establishment of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in 1959, it was logical to have a stock exchange in 1960, which commenced operations in 1961. Thus, the foundation was laid for the operation of the Nigeria capital market. Earlier in 1959, the central bank of Nigeria had floated the first Nigerian development loan stock, which was listed overseas. Subsequent

Nigerian Politics - Captive Country: The Nigerian Conundrum
One of the Nigeria's greatest sons, Herbert Macaulay, wrote that the dimensions of the colonial masters looking after the interests of Nigerians were "algebraically equal to the length, breadth and depth of the white man's pocket." Regrettably, that attitude still applies today but replace the white man with Nigerian politicians. It is very doubtful that Herbert Macaulay would have foreseen the day that Nigerians would be denied the basic rights of life - education, healthcare, personal security, the right to elect, and not select, their leaders and the pursuit of happiness - by fellow Nigerians. It is obvious to all that our leaders have failed to deliver time and time again on

Background
The Nigerian Civil War also known in the History of the country as the Nigerian-Biafran war began in July 6, 1967 and ended in January 13, 1970 following the declaration of Republic of Biafra by the old Eastern Region of Nigeria in May 30, 1967. The Nigerian Civil War today forms an important political aspect of the History of Nigeria. In nations where so much importance is attached to history and development of researches a lot would have been written about such unpleasant situations which in a way will go a long way in preventing and forestalling future occurrences in such nations.

The story bubbled earlier in the year as legislators debated whether to include a two-party amendment into the Electoral Reform Bill, on that occasion the idea was shot down, albeit after some political manoeuvring, but nonetheless it raised the profile of the grand coalition agenda.

After an analysis of the links between religion and politics, the book elaborates on all the major cases of violence in the 1980s and 90s, including the Maitatsine, Kano, Bauchi, Kaduna, and Katsina riots. Zones of religious tensions are identified, as well as general characteristics of violence in Nigeria; and issues in inter and intra-religious relations, relious organizations, and the states, and the main actors in the conflicts are explored in great detail.

The Painful Tradition of Nigerian Politics
Nigeria is again set to withdraw another huge sum of money ($5.3 billion) to finance an urgent approach to the Nigerian power problem. In Naira terms, this translates to N602 billion. The money is to be withdrawn from the Excess Crude Account.There is nothing wrong with withdrawing money to finance a project that will be of benefit to the people. The problem is just that the money may not percolate down to target. This is because the tradition has been that of leadership mediocrity where huge sums are spent with nothing to show for it. To a lot Nigerians thus, the news of government plans to release $5.3 billion for power reform sounded painful.The immediate past government of Gen. Olusegun

2011 Governor Elections Will Be taking Place on Tuesday 26 April
Fear of further violence in Northern Nigeria Mounts Up as Millions of Nigerian get ready for the 2011 Governor Elections Will Be taking Place on Tuesday 26 April.
Here is a video of what happen after the presidential post election that was conducted on 16 April 2011.
It is sad to see this happened in the northern Nigerian states like Kaduna, and its neighbouring states. National and Internation observers confirmed that the presidential election that was conducted on 16 April 2011 was the first of it kind due to its credebility, free, fair and transparent. Meaning the violence in the Northern states of Nigeria was uncalled for, not necessary and must not be accepted. This has alert Niherian security authorities to mount-up security levels in preparation to the furth-coming governor elections. Keep checking this blog for the governorship elections results as they emerge. Thanks.

Unrest Situation In Northern Nigeria After PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan Was Declared The Winner of Last Saturday Election.

| Riots erupted today in several towns in Nigeria's Muslim North as incumbent Goodluck Jonathan won the presidential elections by a comfortable majority "Kaduna is on fire right now!" reads an SOS message we got at the elombah.com newsroom this morning. "The riot started mid-night when it was glaring Jonathan is going to win! Churches are being burnt down and christians are been killed..NYSC members are mostly targeted.. |

Emirs palace,Naabba,Bashir tofa,Bala borodo (Ex Minister),Galadima of Kano etc houses bunt".
While these reports have not been independently confirmed, what is not in doubt is that riots have broken out in the two several northern Nigerian cities like Kano, Zaria, Gombe, Sokoto, Maiduguri and Kaduna as presidential poll results show Goodluck Jonathan is set to win.
With nearly all the votes counted, the incumbent - a Christian from the oil-producing Niger Delta - has almost twice the number of his main rival.
Young supporters of Muhammadu Buhari, who is popular in the north, have been clashing with police.
The African Union observer team said it was Nigeria's best poll for decades.
PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan yesterday expressed sadness over the “sporadic unrest” in some cities of the North, calling on all our political leaders especially his co-contestants in the weekend polls which he won to appeal to their supporters to stop further violence in the interest of stability, peace and well being of Nigeria.
Why are the Northerners always destroying lives and properties? Several people from the North have ruled Nigeria for several years and has very little to do for their people and Nigeria.
