How did Canada arrive at such a conclusion: allegedly naming the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as terrorist organisations? Honestly, this is troubling. It is true that the ruling political party in Nigeria has often been accused of failing to respect the rights of citizens, with reports of Nigerians […]
Ebonyi state in Nigeria could have been one of the best states in the country if a leader with wisdom and genuine concern for the daily struggles of the people had been elected as governor. Unfortunately, ex-governor David Umahi, known for his corrupt practices, made sure that when his tenure ended, one of his close
Hajia Halima Shehu, who is in charge of the poverty alleviation program in Nigeria, allegedly transferred billions of naira into her four private bank accounts. During interrogation, she claimed the money was mistakenly transferred. But the shocking part is that the alleged money was deposited into four different accounts belonging to her. It is pathetic

However, our advice to him is simple: do not run for the 2027 presidential election. The reality is that he will
The Nigerian government continues to borrow money from the World Bank and from virtually every other country willing to lend without seriously considering the long-term damage this reckless approach could cause. This is deeply unfortunate and troubling. The situation has now reached an alarming level. We are appealing to the government of Nigeria to rethink
If the African Democratic Congress (ADC) does not give Mr. Peter Obi a ticket to run for the presidency of Nigeria, moving over to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would be a wrong move so long as those untrustworthy politicians who destroyed the PDP remain in the party. Some of these corrupt politicians including Mr.
The Viewers Corner News team visited Anambra State not too long ago as part of a working tour of the region. We did so because, in a few months’ time, the governorship election of Anambra State will be held.
