ONE way to summarize the situation of the Centre for Black Culture and International Understanding (CBCIU) at this moment requires no deep elaboration. It goes thus: There is Law, and there is Ethics. Wherever these two arbiters of public conduct appear to clash, even Ethics must bow to Law. On the other hand, it is useful to remember also that the sinews that bind civilized society together are strengthened when both – Law and Ethics – converge, and are harmonized in a public cause

Ethnicity plays such a major part in the consciousness of Nigerians so much that, once a list of appointees are released, as most Nigerians go through the list, instead of accessing the strength of the individuals, they immediately attempt to group the appointees by ethnicity, religion or clans.

Veteran Yoruba comic actor, Babatunde Omidina, popularly known as Baba Suwe, who lost his wife about six years ago, told Saturday Beats that he currently has some women in mind for marriage.

When probed further about when he intends to tie the knots and the identity of the lady he likes the most among all the women he is eyeing, the ace actor said no one should snoop into his private life.

He said, “When I would get married is nobody’s business. It could be this year or the next but whenever it happens, everybody would know about it. I have numerous prospects that I can pick from. It is not just one person I am eyeing. I would soon remarry and it is when I am ready. I know I have numerous female fans and God helps me to handle them well because if one is not careful about women, he could land in trouble. I know how I handle my female fans.”

FIVE-and-a-half decades ago, when Nigeria elected its first government at the end of colonial rule, many expected the country to rise quickly to become Africa’s leading power. It had people in abundance, the region’s best universities and vast natural resources. It exported great pyramids of peanuts, was one of the world’s leading sources of cotton and was soon to become Africa’s biggest producer of oil.

It wasn’t a scheduled meeting. But the hurry with which the aide knocked at the door of President Muhammadu Buhari’s office showed that he needed to brief his boss about an urgent matter he considered to be of national importance. Unruffled, the President listened with rapt attention as his aide, who is trusted with his judgments on issues, told his boss the perception of Buhari’s young government by Nigerians.

With concern written all over his face, sources in the Presidency said that the aide notified Buhari that there were complains about the unevenness in the number of appointments the President had made in recent times. As of that time, the President had appointed nine persons into various offices. “Sir, people are of the belief that the appointments made so far are lopsided and are in favour of a particular region,” he was quoted to have said. In response, the President was said to have calmly replied that his subsequent appointments would change such perception.
