Quotes

[edit]
  • Nigeria remains a nation sorely betrayed by its people
  • I have had to argue again and again that the so-called leaders usually arise from among the people. Hence, if bad leaders arise from among us perennially, then there is something inherently bad in us all.
  • I want to quickly add that in spite of the duplicity and moral deficiency that is prevalent among us as a people, there are still some individuals, whose sterling character stand out as beacons of hope and who continue to inspire humanity that regeneration is possible and that life can be lived with dignity.
  • The ritual killings in Urhobo communities had become something to worry about.
