PEOM : "A Call to the Youth"

Image
 By: Olamide Oladipupo Nigeria, a land of promise and pain, Where the future is uncertain, and the present's in vain, A nation blessed with riches, yet cursed with strife, Where the youth are crying out, for a better life. Will you be the saviour, or the oppressor too? Will you stand for justice, or perpetuate the cruelty? The choice is yours, the power is in your hands, To shape the future, or to succumb to the plans. The challenges are many, the obstacles are great, But the youth are rising, with a determination to create, A better Nigeria, where all can thrive, Where education, healthcare, and opportunities survive. But the system is rigged, the politicians are cold, They promise and fail, leaving the youth to grow old, In poverty, in darkness, with no hope in sight, But still the youth hold on, to the light of what's right. So we ask you, dear youth, what will you do? Will you be the change, or perpetuate the "status quo" too? Will you stand for justice, or sit id...

The Godfather Syndrome: How Powerful Interests Hijack Executive Selections

Image
 By: Ezekiel Ademola In the hallowed halls of academia, a subtle yet pervasive force has taken hold, threatening to undermine the very foundations of democracy. Godfatherism, a system where powerful individuals wield influence over executive selections, has become a scourge on many institutions of higher learning. This phenomenon is not unique to any particular institution or region. Rather, it is a nationwide problem that requires urgent attention. When powerful interests hijack executive selections, the consequences are far-reaching. It leads to a lack of accountability, corruption, and mismanagement of resources.

This system has created a culture of fear and impunity, where those who dare to chal...
