The National Leader of the  All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu , on Friday said he was working on a book that would detail how his party removed former President  Goodluck Jonathan  from office. Tinubu reportedly played an instrumental role in the merger of the  Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressive Change  and  All Nigeria Peoples Party  to form the APC that presented  President Muhammadu Buhari  as their candidate. According to TodayNG , Tinubu made this known through his aide,  Tunde Rahman  while speaking at the launch of “Against the Run of Play”, a book authored by Chairman, ThisDay Editorial Board,  Olusegun Adeniyi.  He also noted that he played a big role in the emergence of  Professor  Yemi Osinbajo  as Nigeria’s Vice-President.

Former presidential candidate and founding member of the ruling  All Progressives Congress (APC) ,  Professor Pat Utomi , has said that the party has under-performed and its structure has been poor. Utomi told NAN in New York that the party had to be reformed to refocus it to its founding ideals. He said the founding fathers of the party will reform it to correct some of its lapses. The founder of the defunct  African Democratic Congress (ADC)  said some of the founding fathers were more committed to building APC as an enduring political party. According to him, however, some people are more interested in taking titles in the party, rather than building it. “I’m a member of the APC; I’m one of the real founding members of the APC. Forget that because some of us committed more to building real stuff and others rushed to take titles; but we founded the APC. It’s not been what we thought it would be; let’s be very honest, the party has under-performed,

I won’t deny I did something really bad. I called out my ex’s name while we were making love. I don’t even know how that happened. I am always careful and I am not even the noisy type when lovemaking. The way he pushed me off his body, I was shocked. His kind can kill somebody. I couldn’t even lie because where do I start? How do I even deny it? I am filled with so much guilt and fear. I don’t love my fiancé anymore but every time I think of breaking up with him, fear grips me. I imagine him pouring acid on me, stabbing me or setting me on fire like those people you see on Instagram. It

The one thing every serious undergraduate looks forward to is the end of their stay in school when they are finally rewarded with a certificate (or a statement of result in schools that are resistant to development). However, they will soon realise that as a typical university graduate in Nigeria, the pursuit of certificates is far from over. The next one in line is the passport to enter the corporate labour market in Nigeria;  the  National Youth Service Corps  (NYSC) certificate. If you are lucky you will probably spend only a few months waiting for your NYSC posting. However a large pool of graduates spend a significant amount of time waiting to be posted. Typically, this time is spent doing nothing particularly useful which is sad because time lost can never be regained. As a recent graduate, you can work and earn real money while at it during this period of waiting. We have compiled a list of some jobs you can engage in while you await your NYSC postin

The book I will review today is titled “Obvious Adams”, it is a call to business owners, aspiring business owners, marketers and advertisers to look out for the “Obvious “. This book is over a century old, this tells us that there is really nothing new under the sun as the saying goes. The argument by some people is that for business and advertising campaigns to succeed, it must be new, nostalgic and avoid the obvious. What if you obey all of these rules and nobody is buying or talking about your business or products, not because they do not care, rather they do not understand jack about your business or advert. Now, have you ever seen an advert that you keep asking, what exactly are they advertising or selling ? You are not alone, it has happened to me before and same can happen to your supposed clients and customers if they can not see nor relate with your products and message. This business book is the story of a young boy who rose from grass to grace, he was

A father has been exposed and jailed for raping his daughter regularly for 20 years after she released a recording of him boasting about his actions. He was charged with five counts of rape which he initially denied but he was eventually convicted and sentenced to 12 years in prison.  Raymond Prescott, 54, first attacked Layla Bell, 31, when she was just seven years old. Layla of Clifton, Nottingham, said her father would go from being her best friend this minute to being a sexual predator the next. He often taunted her and made foul comments, including telling her the abuse was the "best sex he’d ever had" In 2001, Layla, who is now married with four kids of her own, reported the abuse to police but soon withdrew charges, claiming relatives harassed her. So she waited until she had gathered enough evidence before she took the case up again. She described how her father would grope her while shouting: "I’m having sex with my own daughter" and tol
