On the Dwindling Fortunes of Igalas in Kogi State.

 On the Dwindling Fortunes of Igalas in Kogi State. Agba Amomaye, I hope this meets us well. Let me start by saying whatever treatment we are getting from the current structure is working out for the good of our nation depending on how we choose to respond to it. Although we are still blind to the realities of Igala"s re-emerging nationhood and are still licking  the scars of the captivity called Kogi.  It is good to note that our roof is currently on fire but we are still busy chasing the rodents escaping from it.   I speak from the privileged point of someone whom divinity had revealed the future to without any sense of bragging and sent to deliver the message of Igala"s restoration.

Dangers: BOOK DELVES INTO THE GRIPPING ACCOUNT OF HOW PRESIDENT’S PLANE ESCAPED DISASTER

  Dangers: BOOK DELVES INTO THE GRIPPING ACCOUNT OF HOW PRESIDENT’S PLANE ESCAPED DISASTER By Innocent, 24/01/2024 President Muhammadu Buhari’s plane nearly crashed with him and his aides in November 2015, six months after being sworn in as Nigeria’s president, a new book released in Abuja on Tuesday, has revealed. In the book Working with Buhari: Reflections of a Special Adviser, Media and Publicity (2015-2023), written by Femi Adesina, Buhari is said to have been travelling to the Island of Malta to attend a meeting of the Commonwealth Heads of Government when the plane ran into frightful turbulence that persisted for a long time.  The report said the turbulence was so severe that when the plane eventually landed in Malta, a deeply terrified President Buhari queried the pilot: “What kind of landing is this?” and the pilot had to tender an apology to the President and the other troubled passengers. The report said: “A presidential jet is not immune from bad weather and the ac...
