Jarus In The Papers

With over 40 articles published in Nigerian national dailies, I have opened this thread to put together some of my writings.
Opinion are personal, I hope you know. So whatever opinion you read here are strictlly mine. No arguing, no debate, no insult please.

This article was written when I was serving in Sokoto last year. The 5-paragraph write-up took the whole of Sokoto state by storm. I became the most popular corper. The state government was annoyed. "How can a bloody corper interfere in the politics of a state he had come to serve?", they kept asking. I met the state Commissioner for Education and apologized. I had 3 months service extension because of this article.

I was serving my 3-months NYSC extension in Sokoto, having written an article critical of the state government. My usual place was the state library, where I used to go and read for my ICAN exams, and flip through the library newspapers to relax. I saw one provocative article in Tribune one Wednesday. I quickly picked my pen and put up a rejoinder, and dashed for teh cyber cafe. Tribune,Vanguard and Daily Trust published it.
