"Asking me if Igbo elites are in support of Nnamdi Kanu or not does not make any difference, whether they're in support or not, they still remain the minority, the masses who voted them into power are the majority. Can the minority defeat the majority? I don't care whatever

anyone says about me drumming support for my brothers, it is non of my business.
"I read a publication online where one of them who lives in Lagos State and working with Lagos State government on sanitation says he will soon write a book against me for supporting Nnamdi Kanu.

And I ask myself, this person who said he will write a book about me what is his contribution to his people. People are frustrating your brothers and you're busy clapping for them just for personal gain.
"I cannot force anybody go speak in favour of Kanu, if they like let them

DSTV accounts for over 90% of Nollywood movie market. by Chukwuemekam E. Chukwuemeka
''M-net, the operator of African Magic Channels, is the single major buyer of movie licenses and the biggest payer. It is also the only significant buyer of movies from start-up producers.

If you make Movie with over N2 million and fail to secure contract with M-net, you are sure going to lose.
ROK used to be a good buyer until it moved into producing its own content leaving only M-net as the sole market for TV right contract of movies from independent producers.

Meanwhile, both M-net’s African Magic channels and ROK’s studios ride on DSTV.
I am explaining this to highlight the effect of shutting down DSTV on Nollywood market alone. Movie producers will simply fold up or abandon the business. Actors and actresses will go year on year

''1. Buhari popularised IPOB and Kanu. Kanu founded IPOB in 2012, ran it for 3 years but many Nigerians never heard of it or Radio Biafra. Then within 3 months of Buhari’s presidency, every Nigerian had heard of IPOB, Radio Biafra and Nnamdi Kanu. Within 6 months of Buhari’s

presidency, Kanu had become a great force in Nigeria that could no longer be ignored.
2. Buhari created Sunday Igboho and popularised him. The Southwest has been known for political protests but not for separatist agitation. But with Buhari's tacit support for the herdsmen and

their killings in the Southwest, he pushed an unknown Sunday Igboho forward to become a hero in the Southwest with strong supporters.
3. Buhari will soon create another hero in the Niger Delta.
4. He may even create another in the Middle Belt.
Meanwhile, some people are busy

''While studying for my M.Sc., I did some back breaking but legitimate jobs that you can't even imagine.
At a point, na to wash dedi-bodi naim remain.
I wasn't the first and won't be the last to do those kinda jobs.
Working as a bartender, tips were silver

linings. No matter how small, those tips supported my life and study in ways I can't write here. They helped me keep my head above water.
Tips given to service providers hasn't been in our culture. I understand Nigeria hasn't been easy to any of us. It might not be easy going

But you see that N20, N50, N100, N200 you give to a waiter, cab driver, front cashier or security man is like adding to buying bread for the kids next day school, completing the money to buy baby milk, adding to securing a basket of garri, cup of rice or beans for

''Speak out.....
Benito Mussolini Italian Prime Minister in the 30s rose to power democratically.Gradually his dictatorial tendencies started showing up, those who should have spoken out against it kept quiet.Within 5 years he consolidated power and silenced the entire opposition

Dictators dont just rise in a day, they rise gradually, testing the waters and accessing the strength of the opposition and civil society. They start by destroying the judiciary and having a grip of the law in their hands, next they trump up charges against those who disagree

with them and imprison them using kangaroo courts, self implanted judges or detain those they disagree with indefinitely without trial.
Next they go after the press, they jail journalist, in some cases people start missing, next and the most dangerous part of it, they start
