WORLD INDUSTRY LEADERS

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DEAR BROTHER AND GOOD FRIEND,DR GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN, GCFR BY PROF MIKE OZEKHOME, SAN, CON, OFR.  GEJ, you are a true democrat in the truest sense of the word.More than 8 years after you left office, many Nigerians are still yearning for your kind of humane and purposeful leadership that shunned discrimination, tribalism, sectionalism, prebendalism and cronyism. Nigeria surely prospered under you,overtaking South Africa as the biggest rebased economy in Africa and one of the fastest growing economies in the world.  For the common man,life was good.You certainly made your mistakes- like us all humans and mortals. But your gargantuan pluses far outweigh your few minuses.God has indeed been very kind to you,raising you from a bootstrap state of nadir to the zenith of power as president of the biggest democracy in the black world.

" A stitch in time saves nine"- Italian sayin gs  As Senator Monday Okphebolo is now off to the Real big deal business as the new governor of Edo State , many today could still not help but think about how Godwin Obaseki, the former governor, might have found himself in a much happier position had he heeded the guidance of Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele, shared back in September 2023. Primate Ayodele is undeniably a polarizing figure—his forthrightness has earned him both admirers and adversaries. Yet, one undeniable truth remains: his prophecies tend to materialize with remarkable accuracy. Many fail to grasp that his predictions can include anyone, regardless of personal acquaintance; when his words favor them, they deem him attention-seeking, while those who find themselves on the losing end claim he is in collusion with their rivals. This level of ignorance is perplexing. It’s vital for people, particularly Christians, to recognize that their pastor is not the s...

" Justice delayed is Justice Denied" -Benjamin Franklin  BY: PROF. MIKE A. A. OZEKHOME, SAN, CON , OFR, FCIArb, LL.M, Ph.D, LL.D,  “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor, it must be demanded by the oppressed”  (Martin Luther King, Jnr). Justice Walter Onnoghen who was unfairly disgraced out of office presumably as a crook by former dictator President, General Muhammadu Buhari, has just demonstrated this apophthegum through three appeals, namely  CA/A/375/2019; CA/A/37/SC/2019  and  CA/373C/2019.  He valiantly fought for his freedom through these three appeals against his  April 18, 2019  outrageous conviction which was schemed by Buhari and his kitchen cabinet to humiliate Onnoghen out of the Bench so as to make CJN, his preferred candidate (Justice Tanko Mohammed), CJN (rtd.) on the eve of the 2019 presidential election.
