Adopting human face -approach in tackling global issues BY ITUAH AYEWOH
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMAThere can be no more auspicious time than now for world leaders to opt for a more humane approach in their handling of the socio-economic and political issues in the world. The world and humanity in general are suffering from an acute depression of emotional neglect caused by many of the present prevailing socio-economic and political policies being used as reform models.

HOW TO FIGHT CORRUPTION HEAD ON IN NIGERIA: THE 31-WAY COMBAT STRATEGIES TO ROOT OUT THE MENACE
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMA’Dear Government…I’m going to have a serious talk with you if I ever find anyone to talk to.’’ – Stieg Larson
What Is Corruption?
For the sake of clearing any iota of ambiguity and to disabuse the minds of proponents of the retired debate in Nigeria who contend that stealing is NOT corruption, a definition of corruption suffices. Transparency International (TI), the global anti-corruption watchdog succinctly defines corruption as ‘’the abuse of entrusted power for private gain. It goes further to say that corruption can be classified as grand, petty and political, depending on the amounts of money lost and the sector where it occurs’’. Etymologically, www.vocabulary.com holds that corruption originated from a Latin word – com, or ‘’with, together’’, and rumpere, meaning to break. In other words, corruption is an action, outcome that breaks trustworthiness, good reputation. It further says that corruption encompasses a wide range of actions and inactions such as (1) Lack of integrity (especially susceptibility to bribery); (2) moral pervasion (the quality of not been in accord with standards of right or good conduct, (3) use of a position of trust for dishonest gain, (4) inducement of a public official to violate duty and (5) the process of decay; putrefaction.
THE NATIONAL BLUEPRINT FOR A BROAD-BASED DISSECTION OF AND STRATEGIES TO COMBAT CORRUPTION IN NIGERIA
BY JOHN ODEY ADUMA, PUBLISHER AND BRITISH CHEVENING SCHOLAR, UNITED KINGDOM
General Snail whose political barracks is now in disarray with rebellious troopers trying to oustsmart one another has given himself the very impossible task of ridding Nigeria of corruption in a manner of a fool who does not only build his house on sand, but with straws instead of building it on the rock using bricks. What is more, the now General Ajala/the troubadour - the globe-trotter and the world's legendary ideas shopper and hunter, perhaps, needs to be reminded he's living in a glass house!
APC 'Doctors' and Nigeria...APC is not the answer!

President Muhammadu Buhari, the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the Savanna Farms Plc, a Jacob pretending not to know about the ongoing rancour in the Farm House. The animals are already threatening one another: "...*the elephant ravages the jungle/the jungle is peopled with snakes/the snake says to the squirrel/I will swallow you/the mongoose says to the snake/I will mangle you/the elephant says to the mongoose/I will strangle you."
Adekunle Tinubu...The Author of ILLOGICA MATHEMATICA and the most indiscreet person in the world. "Don't mess up with me-o", his body language in the picture seems to be suggesting...but in just 90 days' time, this tactless bull will be chased out of the Savanna Farms Plc's Farm House, other wise known as the HOUSE OF UTHMAN DAN FODIO.
BY MUHAMMADU BUHARI, PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE FEDERAL ARMED FORCES OF NIGERIA
Today, we bring you the inaugural speech of a President who is stuck in the Middle Ages in all that he thinks, says and does. This is not a review yet, but we can tell you it is a very uninspiring speech hurriedly put together by Beer Palour/Brukutu speech writers - a mixture of inputs from the various competing interests that abound in the Association of Political Confusionists (APC), the Kerryan platitude, not withstanding. But what's the use of the reference to the sanguinary and imperialistic past mistaken for civilization?
If Buhari does not care a hoot as to giving an honourable mention to Compatriot SULEIMAN HASHIMU, then what makes anyone thinks this President cares about other talakawas?

Citizen Suleiman Hashimu not receiving a mention in the President's inaugural speech simply shows Buhari does not care about the commoners of the federation who have been sacrificing their lives for him up till his eventual ascendancy as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria! Mr Hashimu risked his life trekking to Abuja for this legendary and crassly insensate President. This President no longer remembers the ordinary people of Nigeria now that it is well with him. God dey-o!
THE POETRY OF JOHN ODEY ADUMA (1)
BY JOHN ODEY ADUMA, AUTHOR AND BRITISH CHEVENING SCHOLAR, UNITED KINGDOM
Nigeria is land of opportunities, despite obvious challenges!
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMAThis essay is akin to setting up the Yin (the dark negative feminine principle in Chinese dualistic cosmology) before the Yang (the bright positive masculine principle), is a prelude to my ensuing piece which will enumerate ample investment/business opportunities in Nigeria.
A shrewd entrepreneur will agree that some of the challenges discussed herein are themselves, business opportunities. Whilst the Nigerian business terrain promises very good return on investment to the savvy and patient; please quickly suck it in that doing business in Nigeria is not for the faint-hearted, but for the resilient and tough-minded.

Nigeriaghanistan: A nation's backward march to neofeudalism, neocolonialism, Arabism, theocracy and totalitarianism
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMA....The Mai Kunu-Ngbati Alliance From 1817 Till The Present And The Scramble for Nigeria Under Bad Loser Muhammadu Buhari
(Part One)
Ethnicist/Regionalist Muhammadu Buhari contested to rule Nigeria whilst being a Co-Patron of the regional assembly Arewa Consultative Forum with four other former Heads of State/Presidents such as Yakubu Gowon, Shehu Shagari, Ibrahim Babangida, Abdulsalami Abubakar and Atiku Abubakar...do you think an arch ethnicist/regionalist/religious bigot like Buhari will be fair to all Nigerians? But why was his candidature not voided when it is well known he is a highly partisan and divisive figure?
There is no gainsaying the fact that terrorism is a very complex, constantly evolving phenomenon with varying procedures and targets. It is dangerous to confine the inventiveness of man or of extremists. Terrorism basks on the duality of surprise and near unpredictability. Hindsight tells us that several terrorist incidents could have been pre-empted and frustrated if the security agencies had been able to forecast probable scenarios and left no stone unturned in forestalling such. While this essay is not strictly in the realm of ‘terrorism futures’ - a scientific approach that analyses, discerns or models the probability, modus operandi of terrorism; it is nonetheless aimed at (a) extrapolating plausible scenarios or maneuver that Boko Haram may adopt as the sect re-strategizes in the face of the current onslaught against it and (b) nudging Nigerian military strategists, security agencies and policy makers not to relapse, but rather to be proactive, think the unthinkable and up their game to avert unpleasant surprises or "failure of imagination" as some liken the September 11 terrorist attack where the “dots were not connected†prior to the terrorist incident.
