Those were the exact words of Chief Donald Omotayo Alasoadura(73) at an event last year. He should know what he was talking about, for he has served as Minister of State for Niger Delta between 2019-2022. He has also served as Commissioner of Finance and Planning under my friend Dr. Olusegun Kokumo Agagu (16 February 1948 – 13 September 2013), the late Governor of Ondo state. On Wednesday, September 13 this year, it will be ten years anniversary of the demise of Dr. Agagu. My condolences always to his beloved family. Time flies over us but leaves its shadows behind.
As part of activities to mark its 40th anniversary, the Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF) recently honoured eminent Nigerians and non-Nigerians (both dead and alive) who have made contributions to conservation in Nigeria.
The Convener, Rebuild Nigeria Initiative (RNI), Ituah Ighodalo, has declared that Nigeria is at a crossroad, lamenting that its fortunes have continued to decline to the detriment of its citizens.
