From Restiveness to Renaissance: Chima Anyaso’s Model for Sustainable Youth Empowerment

OPINION

From Restiveness to Renaissance: Chima Anyaso’s Model for Sustainable Youth Empowerment ~ By Emenike Okorie One of the biggest challenges confronting the Nigerian government and its people today is insecurity—a menace largely fueled by youth unemployment, poverty, and social frustration. As the saying goes, “a hungry man is an angry man,” and “an idle mind is the devil’s workshop.” It is no longer news that the high rate of youth unemployment, moral decay, and poverty are deeply connected to the rising wave of insecurity, drug abuse, cybercrime, and restiveness in our society. Therefore, if Nigeria must address the issues of…

Emergency Rule in Nigeria: A Troubled Journey from 1962 to Tinubu

Emergency Rule in Nigeria: A Troubled Journey from 1962 to Tinubu Emergency powers are designed to be constitutional safety valves for exceptional times of crisis. In Nigeria, however, their invocation has often been controversial, as leaders have sometimes used them to suspend democratic institutions.

Nigeria’s first state of emergency came in May 1962, declared by Prime…

Unfortunately, tradition and religion; two of the most powerful forces shaping societal behavior, have often been misused to sustain and justify this injustice. From childhood, many Nigerian girls are taught that their ultimate worth lies in their ability to marry, bear children, and keep a home. Traditions in…

The Similarities Between Igbo And Fulani By Dr Austin Orette The more things look different, the higher the chances of finding similarities if we look closely. Those at the opposite end of the spectrum are mirror images. If we move too quickly, we are subjected to the parallax effect where everything is moving except us. In this scenario, we are not the cause but the effect. I have lived with Igbo and Fulani people. As a student of behavioral science, I don't see any difference in these groups. They may hate and admire each other but they are having the…
