Nigeria: Ondo’s Kaadi

In terms of social protection, Ondo State is the most progressive environment, in Nigeria, actually in Africa. When you look at the number of social intervention programmes, the quality, and the number of people benefiting from the programmes, and how long that they have been enjoying these social services, Ondo State is unbeatable in Africa. – Tejinder Sandhu, chief of Field Office of UNICEF, Monday, July 24, 2017 Mimiko’s achievements in office, which spanned multi-sectors in the 8 years that he had the privilege to serve the Ondo people, have defied the norms of Nigerian politics. There’s no denying, therefore, that any public official in Nigeria who is interested in driving real change would prioritize putting in place social safety measures to bridge the inequality gap and drive meaningful progress in the society. ----------- Recently some state governors in Nigeria have announced plans to launch residency cards. Characteristically, buzzwords such as ‘social safety’, ...

'Nnamdi Kanu is fighting a very good cause in a very bad way and he may still go for Senate in 2019' - Eedris Abdulkareeem

Controversial Nigerian rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem has shared his thoughts on the current Biafra struggle and its leader, Nnamdi Kanu. In an exclusive interview with LIB, Eedris says,     ''I think Nnamdi Kanu is fighting a very good cause but in a very bad way. He's still on bail, so what he should have basically done is to peacefully put together a referendum by calling on people who believe in what he's doing and also seek support from a couple of countries and take it up non violently''. He went on to say, 'you can't be out on bail and be agitating for something because that could basically lead us to war and we don't need war in this country right now. If we are not careful, what happened in 1967 may repeat itself because we have a governmnet that does not know how to go about bringing people together. Eedris also hinted that Nnamdi Kanu's long term plan may be to contest for a Senatorial seat come 2019, 'Like I said, the wa...
