LP Recovery: Otti's Visionary Leadership and Strategic Political Calculations Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D The Supreme Court's judgment sacking Barr.

For Akpabio, A Word Should Be Enough For The Wise – By Azuh Arinze

For Akpabio, A Word Should Be Enough For The Wise - By Azuh Arinze In my own estimation, Godswill Obot Akpabio, Nigeria's Senate President, should be the luckiest politician ever from Akwa Ibom State. An average lawyer before politics beckoned, he has since gone ahead to serve as a commissioner, governor, minister, and now the No. 3 citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Weeks back, he got into what has now become a "Roforofo" fight with Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, a fellow lawyer and colleague who combines beauty with boldness. Truth be told, no one can say categorically who among them…
