#NigerDelta History/Ekpeye.
Benin Empire was one of the greatest of the
time. They were said to have migrated from
Oduduwa Empire of the Yorubas. The Obas
had little regard for human beings. They
were taken as the ancestors and thereby
were honored as gods. At about 1542 AD,

had little regard for human beings. They

during the reign of Oba Awuarre, his
atrocities were so severe that his subjects
could no longer bear; hence, they planned to
assassinate him. The plot was revealed to
the Oba who instantly became very hostile to
the people. The hostility resulted in a great

Just A Reminder: About 2 years ago, the security agencies issued a warning that we all took lightly, though widely reported in the media...
2) The agencies warned that as #BokoHaram insurgents and their camps are being decimated, some of the insurgents on the rub will head to the Southern parts of the country, some of them using COWS as cover to wreck mayhem. Can you folks @Google up this news item???
3) The Army and other security forces have made claims of over running #BokoHaram amd their territories in the North. But we are yet to ask: Where has the fleeing insurgents gone to?
The needle shifted a little further into the red zone with concerns over an expanded security vote chest, an import rate hike bound to affect fuel prices, talk of water colonies, and the CBN’s continued fixation on forex.
The glue that holds up the inefficient political system in #Nigeria, and skews it against both the will of the people and a level playing field for better candidates to emerge, is the existence of slush funds that warp campaign funding.
Security votes rank high up in upholding this system.
When the existence of the security votes is taken along with the abysmal security situation across the country, the irony is not lost on observers.
