All the people said Amen! 1 Chronicles Chapter 16: verse 7 through 36. 7 That day David first appointed Asaph and his associates to give praise to the Lord in this manner:. 8 Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;. Make known among the nations what he has done. 9 Sing to him, sing praise to him;. Tell of all his wonderful acts. 10 Glory in his holy name;. Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Seek his face always. His marvelo...

OBINOCHA: March 2009
http://obinocha.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Friday, March 27, 2009. Revamping our Cathedral of development. Obviously, policy designers or managers of publicly funded infrastructures in a developing economy, like Nigeria, will easily agree with that assertion and perhaps even conclude that it is its own eleventh commandment for system optimization. In these other places, an infrastructure’s longevity memorializes it into a historical asset that defines its identity, or as a welcoming visage to herald a ne...

OBINOCHA: December 2009
http://obinocha.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Lessons from the Kirikiri sojourners. If tax reliefs or other forms of corporate incentives are offered and funneled by the government into these institutions, then the public have a right to know what is going there. Even the old saw among politicians that the end justifies the means allegedly is still part of certain procurement processes. Otherwise, why would persons not fear about Kirikiri if all that matters to their insouciant mi...

Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Monday, March 8, 2010. Stanley Macebuh: A Tribute. The media industry in Nigeria will forever remember March 7, 2010 and the eventful sadness that became theirs at the National Hospital, Abuja. The incredible news was unexpected, even as it was profoundly excruciating to the nuclear family to comprehend: the news hound had become the news maker! Good night, De Stanley. Links to this post.

OBINOCHA: June 2009

Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Charity may still be a widow’s name. Links to this post. Thursday, June 11, 2009. Privilege really entails responsibility. We have many elected and public officials, making life and death decisions in various tiers of our governments and offices, who take the wrong but popular approach to ethics in government business! The conduct of the elected or public official must always aim at engaging the public in a dialogue centered on services that ar...

OBINOCHA: August 2009
http://obinocha.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Saturday, August 29, 2009. An imitation police website. Imagine the impudence, if not a blundering ignorance, for a Nigerian Police that is presumably set up to serve the needs of nationals of another country. That can never the case. A version of this essay was published in the Nigerian newspaper, Daily Sun, on Thursday, September 10th, 2009). Links to this post. Saturday, August 22, 2009. A billion here, and a billion there….

OBINOCHA: October 2009
http://obinocha.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Tuesday, October 27, 2009. A lifeline for public office. Those things that an ethically conscious person find regrettable must not be allowed to thrive. Where persons are faced with an egregious request, one must realize that no job is too important to hold if it can impugn on one’s personal choices, honor, judgment and standing in the society.

Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Sunday, September 20, 2009. The NPF as victim of identity theft. Imagine the impudence, if not a blundering ignorance, why would the Nigerian Police be set to serve the needs of nationals of another country. That would never be the case.

Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Friday, December 9, 2011. Occupying the Quisling path. A local Quisling, for example, with an officer trademark that many grudgingly finds disconsolate, fought so recklessly that even his own family was fair game! Links to this post.

OBINOCHA: July 2009
http://obinocha.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Commentaries about Africa - Nigeria. Sunday, July 19, 2009. Prefatory Notes for Nigeria’s IGP. The new IGP may be well served in promoting aggressive community oriented policing concepts nationwide. In doing so the IGP must also insist on protecting victims’ rights, enhance public access to individuals in custody, and incorporate the services of community volunteers and information fora with grassroots initiatives. We expect persons in that leadership position to discourage the perpetration of cant withi...
