Akwa Ibom: The Ranting of a Faceless Writer - Bazee rightly described Akpabio as an ex-political son of Attah’s. He also probably rightly noted that millionaires must have been made out of the present discourse, which Attah’s letter to Akpabio has generated.
The Nigerian Government and the International Monetary Fund- It is distressingly sad and nationally disgraceful to read the news of the request of the Federal government virtually begging the IMF to ‘initiate policies’ to boost employment in Nigeria.
The complexities of these issues as well as the nature of its complications and how it has not well been addressed by the Federal Government, led to the escalation of violence and the exacerbation of the Niger Delta crisis.
