KEMKA S. IBEJI  Just like I honestly told all Imo State electorate that fateful night that the result of that day was a runoff, while Uche Nwosu was still in the race, and not declaration of a winner yet, I'm also saying that the Supreme Court's decision on reviewing their judgment should be a rerun in the 388 polling units as the number of registered voters in those polling units can impact on who emerges winner of that election. Any other judgement order different from the above will be a wrong and bad judgement and definitely unjust. Time ticks off, and the land awaits peace in Imo State. However, the crying being in all this experience is posterity. For this brazen aberration to form part of our national statute through judicial precedence is a nightmare and the Supreme Court is under obligation to wake us from such. Justice will grant peace and harmony in the state and ultimately guarantee security for all citizens of the state - Imo. It was an injustice decla

KEMKA S. IBEJI  Yes! Why 18? Why must people be 18 years before they are eligible to vote or be voted for in an election? The answer has always been that at such age, one is or will be rational enough to make informed choice. He or she should be able to weigh options available and choose appropriately. But now I ask again, WHY 18 when rationality is no longer the point but the ability to receive higher amount of money? Every child in the primary school is acquainted with the figures and can always distinguish between greater numbers. So WHY 18? WHY 18 when the judiciary is a lonesome supermarket where justice is murdered and judgements bought and sold? If after the wrongs and unlawful actions at the polls, the judiciary validates the illegal and everyone will chorus "as the court pleases". So WHY 18? WHY 18 when the Electoral Umpire goes blind on her duty and allow the rule to be "everything goes"? When they are paid not to do their legitimate jobs for

KEMKA S. IBEJI at Orphanage Home  Men and brethren, if we as leaders look at what our people are and what they do, we will all become devils. Sometimes it pains to say that our people don't seem to deserve anything good by their actions. However, as leaders our morality should be hinged on courage and strong will. This will only stand out when faced with challenges. Just like Socrates on Philosophy of Education, extricating the people from ignorance doesn't go without the violence of the beneficiaries. The people you fight to save from destruction will be fighting to destroy you at the same time. Ignorance is a big fat disease. Be that as it may, we who have passed through the crucibles of leadership have come to wear a different but far strengthened morality. This has a lot to do with knowledge to laugh at your intended killer who does not know your impregnable immunity against his finite imagination. In the main, we should be able to defend the common will no matte

Prof. N. Obiaraeri  Recent developments in the polity, especially the wave of defections or change of political parties by elected and serving members of the Federal and State legislatures, have made it imperative to be reiterated that wilful disobedience to the national constitutional provisions remains the greatest albatross to our democracy. Our constitution is an imperfect work no doubt but there is no gainsaying that our democracy will thrive robustly and the needed dividends of democracy delivered faster in quantum leaps and bounds if, and only if, the salient provisions of the constitution are strictly obeyed and not disobeyed with reckless abandon. Change of political party or what we call "political mobility" is both legit and constitutional for every citizen of Nigeria as the right to freedom of association, which includes freedom to dissociate, is inalienable and fundamental. Put differently and simply, a Nigerian citizen is at liberty to change or wit

It is no longer a breaking news that the Imo State Governor Emeka Ihedioha as declared by INEC on the 2019 election has been deposed by the judgment of the Supreme Court of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is no longer new to the ears. It is no longer news that both political parties and their candidates in that election rigged in one way or the other. It is also not new to discerning minds that right from the Tribunal through the Supreme Court, the judiciary has been a supermarket where justice is muzzled while judgement are wares. But there may be something new from all the oldies. These two (PDP and APC) are the same with different names. They are friends and family teamed up for same purpose. They are also like father and son or mother and daughter living without trust for each other. An old woman in my village usually exclaimed; "that there's a should while mother and child were eating in the dark that light should quickly be brought" she continued "

Man came, saw and is awed He has been overwhelmed by wonders There's confusion as to the reason The reason for man's existence How did man come alive? Why is man here in life? Where will he go when he leaves here? Nothingness! Man seeks to find himself He doesn't know the reality of himself Man's nature eludes man's knowledge This worries as wonders set in Why am I man and not woman? Who made the choice for me? Why can't I be otherwise? What of this reason for my being man? Why are some poor and others rich? Who made it so and why? How could a merciful creator create wickedness? And why death after all? Why why why! Man is empty He lacks meaning Man is elusive His understanding and knowledge They are all imaginations Man is nothing, live for nothing He dies for nothing And exist in nothingness His knowledge of himself The meaning of his existence His reason to be They may be in what is not Perhaps in the opposite of all kno

KEMKA S. IBEJI  I have read a few snippets from the new year prophecy of the Catholic priest - Rev. Fr. Ejije Mbaka. I have also read responses from other Nigerians especially Imo State citizens. I have read all of them with a smile of great understanding from cradle experience. Let me state that there is no point for the quarrels from the prophecy except for a little lack of understanding of the language of prophecy. Our dearly beloved Fr. Ejike Mbaka is both right and wrong at the same time but we can excuse him only if we know how prophecy works or comes. As a child born in a spiritual home that are in a spiritual church, I grew up knowing prophets, prophecy, the language of prophecies, the character of prophecy and the mistakes of prophets as well. The Bible said that some are giving the spirit of effective prayers, some dreams, some vision, some prophecy, some evangelism, some are imbued with the spirit of speaking in tongues etc. Most importantly, some are also given t
