The very many troubles with the PDP and its unwillingness to heed the call of the South…

Metro, Politics, Security, South EastMetro, Next Level, Nigeria, Opinion, Politics

He arguably comes across as the Governor with the best scorecard in 365 days. Ndi Enugu can attest to this truism. The Enugu space today tells lucid testimonies of the place of commitment, dedication, capacity and competency in transformational leadership. And such is the remarkable Story of Peter Mbah. I had a near 30 minutes private dialogue with His EXCELLENCY Peter Ndubuisi Mbah three days after he was sworn in as the Executive Governor of Enugu State in 2023.

After weeks of moving around the country, the consensus arrangement, brokered by the former Military Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida, and announced by Ango Abdullahi, selected…

Politics2023, Next Level, Nigeria, Opinion, Politics, Yahaya Bello

It is therefore not out of place to recently notice that this lucuma so…
