BENIN/AUCHI HIGHWAY BROUHAHA... Not yet Eldorado

 BENIN/AUCHI HIGHWAY BROUHAHA….Not yet Eldorado By: Oriaifoh Godwins The recent protest by the Youths of Esan land, where the Federal government’s attention, as well as the attention of contractor handling the Benin/Auchi Highway project was drawn to the sorry state of the road is a very commendable one and kudos must be given to the youths of Esanland for flogging the government and the contractor, Dantata and Sawoe into line, as we are currently living in a country where the government is completely insensitive to the  plight of the governed. Once again, BRAVO! To the youths of Esanland. As the storm over the protest appears to have subsided, as a result of the appearance on site of the contractor, is it wise at this time for Esan people to thumb up to the government and congratulate them for heeding the request of the people? Can the people of Esanland now go back to their tents believing it’s all over and it is well? In my candid opinion, the answer to these questions is NO! This i

Senator Ordia Campaign Organization denies allegations against the Senator

RE: SENATOR ORDIA SENDING SOLDIERS TO DISPERSE PEACEFUL PROTEST, SHAMEFUL. Senator Clifford Ordia Campaign Organisation has vehemently denied the fake narrative been peddled by protesters on the Ekpoma - Benin Expressway to the effect that the distinguished Senator was instrumental to the deployment of military men to the protest zone to curb the activity. The allegation is a farce coming from the pit of hell and been marshalled by the All Progressives Congress (APC) stalwart Prosper Iyere and his Esan Liberation Movement (ELM) all in his evil plot to destroy the good public image rating and personality of the amiable Senator. Putting everything into proper perspective, is it possible for a Senator to have access to the military? Let alone giving them orders? The head of the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is President Muhammadu Buhari whose government has failed woefully to fix infrastructure in the country. Come to think of it, let's assume the Senator mobilised t

FEATURE: Senator Ordia and the verdict of history

  S ENATOR ENGR CLIFFORD ORDIA AND THE VERDICT OF HISTORY By: Henry J Things get bad, not because there're too many bad people, but the silence of the few good that could have done something either by speaking or acting and not maintained deliberate silence. We need more people especially of religious and traditional institutions that will openly speak tough, blunt and hot against this obvious incompetence, nonchalant nonsense, and we as people especially youths should stand by them whenever they are persecuted for speaking for the interest of humanity. Amongst the National House of Assembly Members, there are some who mean well for our State but unfortunately their voices are somewhat weak and we also have those who are by their conduct misfits in the National House of Assembly. The misfits are there to occupy the spaces meant for their constituencies and nothing more nothing less. Then to make it worse, we the people they are fighting for are not helping matters, as we would
