And the political compensation continues... Africa still has a long way to go..

can this bring about the needed change in our education system that is deteriorating?

all i see is reshuffling and not restructuring the sector.

It is noted. I do hope this would bring about improvement in the education sector.

National Character indeed..SMH

They are talking about Chairmanship of board of parastatals not CEOs.

New board of yam choppers.

Prof Gidado Tahir, a mentor, nationalist and a teacher indeed.

Nigeria French Language Village - Prof Saliba Umukoro, a professor of criminology. A retired major in Nigerian Army and the arrow head of the "brains" behind Gideon Orka coup against IBB in 1990. He went on exile and lectured at University of Machessussets, USA, where he rose to become a Prof in criminology. He came when they were granted presidential pardon by Abdulsalam Abubabakar. A hilghy intelligent man.

Meanwhile Paul Unongo just celebrated his 84th birthday some few months ago
