So much for the little history andContinue reading “THE ROLE RELIGION PLAYS IN CURBING TERRORISM IN NIGERIA”

I am an ardent believer in the school of thought that governance is incomplete if the people who voted in the government are only allowed minimal participation in the process of governance. Growing up as an African lad I have seen many electorates swindled of their mandates by avaricious politicians who promised heaven on earth.Continue reading “Governance”
