Dear Great People of our nation,

Okotie: 2015 and our crony democracy

SEASON’S greetings to my teeming readers. Let me still serve you a morsel of politics even as we celebrate the joyous Yuletide season. The mood isn’t cheery because of the horror of senseless bloodletting by the Boko Haram insurgents, but life must go on, in the hope that things will get better in the New Year; even if they seem otherwise at the moment. Our politicians are self-serving and uncaring, but we are a resilient people who always ride out of every storm.

"Things" May Not Change in 2015, But...

Tomorrow, you promise yourself, will be different, yet tomorrow is too often a repetition of today. -James T. McCay
