HOW GOV. OBIANO WILL BECOME THE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA


I chose this theme because of my conviction that Gov. Obiano’s reelection come 2017 is a certitude given the fact that power lies with the people; and not with the self-interested elements that parade themselves as godfathers. It is instructive that the so-called godfathers should know that Ndi Anambra have come of age politically and can never allow any power behind the scene to snatch the excellent governance of Gov. Willie Obiano from them.

Here, out of patriotism however, I am more concerned about the extension of Gov. Obiano’s excellence in governance to the wider Nigerian society, and it is my humble prayer that the tested and trusted leader in the order of Moses and Joshua should heed the clarion call to national service; especially at the expiration of his divine assignment in Anambra State in 2022.

The intention of this analysis is to send the right signal across to the detractors of our beloved Obiano’s administration that we have transcended the stage of prognosticating the reelection of the ever-working Gov. Willie Obiano in 2017 to highlighting how the God-sent leadership will lead Nigeria at large.

Political power basically can be acquired either through inheritance, violence or election. The first two means are not acceptable in Nigeria because political power by inheritance is obtainable in monarchism; while political power by violence is an aberration. Since Nigeria is neither monarchical nor aberrant, election remains the ideal route to political power. It represents a modern and universally accepted process through which individuals are openly and methodically chosen by the constituents to represent a body or community in a larger entity or government. Election thus, reposes political power in the people and they give it to deserving persons.

Accordingly, Ndi Anambra in 2013 found Chief Willie Obiano worthy of the gift of political power judging from his impressive antecedents; and they massively elected him their governor. Today, they are keenly waiting to repeat the same feat in 2017 judging from the giant strides in good governance that the governor has taken already, surprisingly with very little resources at his disposal.

Just as Ndi Anambra are patiently waiting for the reelection of Governor Willie Obiano come 2017, the larger Nigerian society is waiting in prayer that the quintessential leader should declare interest to becoming the president of Nigeria. The reason for this overwhelming legitimacy to our amiable governor, from far and near is hinged on excellence, a virtue that everyone wishes to be identified with. Once more, it is my humble prayer that the paragon of a leader should heed the clarion call to national service.

I followed with interest a post on Nairaland where Nigerians from other ethnic extractions were paying glowing tributes on the governor; wishing that he was their governor! Thus, the UN emissary, Chief Emeka Anyaoku could not help identifying with the administration when he declared that “there are very few leaders who have strategic capacity. And there we have in Anambra State, a leader who has strategic capacity.”

Ndi Anambra, we are indeed blessed! Let us support Gov. Willie Obiano.

Tips for Emerging Successful in the English Proficiency Test of the Post Graduate School, University of Ibadan

A Focus on the Nature of the Test English proficiency test for the University of Ibadan Postgraduate school was a recent innovation by the Board of the PG School at ensuring quality of the students admitted to the school for postgraduate studies. They stated that they have noticed an unprecedented poor use of English among students of the University of Ibadan; that if such was the case with the students of the prided University of Ibadan, how much more students from other universities that belonged to the lower rung of ranking in academic excellence. They posited that English language was the language of instructions and as such, a test for proficiency for prospective students is to say the least, imperative. The test is a one hour exercise in which you are required to answer 100 questions. To be on a very safe side and finish before the time allowed elapses, you are therefore required to answer each question within 30 seconds. I bet this is challenging; so brace up against it i...

LIMITATIONS OF INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS: A FOCUS ON THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATIONS

Introduction International relations which was generally seen as relations among nations and entities in the international arena begets international organizations. An international organization is a union of actors in the international arena, formed to perform specified functions and/or solve identified problems for the members and/or non members. The concept of an international organization can also be seen on the one hand as a logical progression in the evolution of political entities from the basic family or tribal grouping of pre- and early historic times to the feudal arrangements of early Europe which emerged following Peace of Westaphalia in 1648 (Imber 1984). A second perspective on international organization is that as being something antithetical to the state in effect an external entity which may subsume or destroy the state. This latter view is held by many chauvinists and protectionists who find the economic, political and cultural mongrelization which they claim...
