I have tried that with the last three pieces I did (memos to GMB) but got nowhere. Might try again but happier to invest my time on Nairaland or NVS where I have assured audience versus chasing print. Thanks for the suggestion though and I might just rouse myself to follow your lead.

You could try changing the title to a less confrontational one like "LASG come to our rescue on LEE".

biodunid:
Don't know what it takes to get published in the print press nowadays and am not about to pay a bribe to be published. If you can navigate that particular labyrinth am happy for your help. As for publishing in The Nation....did you miss the hints at underhand dealings in the article?

Ive sent some articles via the editor's email (not Nation) and I got published twice without paying a dime. OK I understand why you might try another paper, like the Sun or Punch. You can get the editor's email from the editorial page.

OP plz try to get this published in a newspaper e.g THE NATION. I hope the new govt would take note of these critical points you made.

Dolapo : We running this town now, I've told them to release funds for next month's dinner

Aisha : hahahahahaha ! My hand no dey there ooo..!

When a SW Oba pronounces his 'blessings' on a non-SWner you know his days are numbered...ask GEJ

temitemi1:
Utomi, the best hand . Don't ask me abt d rest

This is probably the only thing you've typed on NL I will agree with. Or did you upgrade your software ?

GeJ tried to Easternise Nigeria, the end result won't be different if PMB tries to Northernise the country - 4yrs !

Why is my remote control in my trousers ?......Oh its my...

Corrupt and insane...yep, nailed it !

Someone isn't coming back from the UK.

Not surprised, I said they (EFCC) will start a new case just a few days ago.

kay1one2:
Jay z go school?

Please ask them oo..

If a so-called professor of law can still look like a fish out of water after a rigorous campaign (yes, this past one was the most campaigned for election in the history of Nigeria) that brought him to power as VP, to the extent that he is being OPENLY (emphasis) treated like a leper by the P, then he must be a clueless dummy ab initio.

These are "teething problems"in a marriage of convenience. You and I both know PMB would rather have his VP from the same ethnicity, religion and even professional background as himself but that choice wasn't his to make.
I don't know why some are taking this to mean the VP is deficient intellectually or flawed in personality.

Whatever disregard you think P. Buhari is showing the VP, cannot last for long.

Sooner or later the "P", as you call him, would have to shelve this attitude in his own interest and his party, as well as the interest of national unity.

PYO is not an Atiku, he's not about to run his own show independent of the presidents knowledge or approval. He's a different kind of personality altogether, I mean these guys haven't even moved into Aso Rock yet !

Its too early to judge anyone at this stage, even though you can't resist it. It is still too early. And if you call PYO clueless what do you call Sambo ?

Rumpelstiltskin:
The gentility of a lion must not be mistaken for s.tupidity......

The way Osinbajo is (or may seem to be) right now is the same way Jonathan was during the days of Yaradua as President. We thought Jonathan was a dummy until Yaradua died......

PYO is a very learned fellow, however this sudden change in environment; from the confines of his office to the stage of international politics is still a shock to his system.

Do you remember GEJ during Yaradua campaign ? He looked like a fish outside water but today he's accorded the respect of an ex-president of FRN.

Those despising PYO's slow start and small beginnings should take note.

Dharniel:
To my akwa ibom and cross river brothers, i meant no insult when i said akpan, i was just referring to the governor being a house boy to tinubu, and akpan is the only popular house boy name i could think of. i'm sorry once again, i meant no tribalistic offence...

You're only making it worse

Regbe the rascal...I'm embarrassed for you.

ochejoseph:
Wow!
Zimbabwean magic!

Anyway we are waiting Baba's =N= /$ Magic

I hope it won't turnout the Mugabe way since they both became heads of state at the same period ,hopefully the West German Dutchmark won't happen to the naira!

It sounds like a joke...
I pray it doesn't happen here.

AK6464:
I see a future president of the FRN

Your eyes are open eyes. Not opolo eyes at all...

Exile ?

nefertitiram:
Maybe sambo was even leaking the info to BH, I won't be surprised.
Reading from the article, I'm seeing Osinbajo as a pastor, teacher, Lawyer, not a soldier. Would he have the belly for such military warfare? Bombing, slaughtering, beheading, digging mass graves, those terrible things soldiers have to get involved in to win a war?

Osinbajo needs STIMULATION! Meaning, watch some William Wallace, Tour of Duty, Idi Amin and Jerry Rawlings documentary to understand the need for some decisions taken without being emotional about it.
You think Osinbajo will not break down in tears if Sambisa forest is blown up with 500 people inside? After all, he is only human!

Lol ! So how did Jonathan cope ?

jeffizy:
[color=#008800] The supposed "unnamed source" in this report is a highly crass and myopic person.
Do u need clearance before osinbajo can get into aso rock also? Since he can't be trusted yet.

Very irritating explanation. [/color]

Fake story !

shikaan:
this is complete nonsense.
what do they mean by this rubbish...
they dint know he will see a footage and not eat for days when they chose him as VP?
this APC hypocrisy is disgusting.
for heavens sake!!! how do you lock the vice president out of a security meeting where is this done? oluwa o. jor help us.

lalasticlala what kind of journalism is this ?
The whole story is polluted with BS. I doubt anyone said these things.

Insulting leaders and fellow nairalanders is the life blood of many here, take that away from them and they just cease to exist.

This guy hasn't heard of the tribulations of Dr.Abalaka.

What matters most is that he is accountable to all Nigerians and he shouldn't forget it !

Megaphone:
illiteracy is a disease.do u think these positions exist. go bac to school qnd stop talkin thrash

Fashola worshipper, if you dont know what sarcasm is i can sponsor you to a good Grammar school, u can die if u like...

tinuolababy:
Okay. Saraki is d only one smiling

Oh, that awkward moment...!

Dollyak:
I was being diplomatic pending any explanation from his supporters. Though, I was not impressed with the state of Lagos the last time I went there, but I still like to keep an open mind. Can you believe they are still suffering from flood in 2015?

That is the overrated performance some people have been complaining about. Its not even about being elitist. Satellite town, parts of surulere and even V/I Lekki are affected by that.

If PMB has any use for him, I would suggest the following appointments

1. Chief "Political" adviser

2. Prosecutor in Chief of the federation(Min. Of Justice).
