🚨BREAKING NEWS: WAEC Removes Computer, Civic Education & Trade Subjects—But Senator Karimi Fires Back Immediately!🚨

In what many Nigerians are already calling an academic disaster in the making, WAEC has introduced a sudden guideline forcing SS3 students across Nigeria to immediately switch to a new curriculum—removing Civic Education, Computer Studies and all previous trade subjects from the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination.

According to the new WAEC rules, students who have been preparing for years will now be pushed into completely unfamiliar subjects they never studied, leaving them with only six examinable courses instead of the required eight or nine.

But earlier today at the Red Chamber in Abuja, Distinguished Senator Sunday Steve Karimi raised a Motion of Urgent National Importance, demanding that this controversial policy be reversed for current SS3 students who are already preparing for WAEC 2026.

The Senator also insisted that the guidelines must be implemented only for current SS1 students who will write WAEC in 2027/2028, arguing that the sudden change without adequate preparation could destroy academic performance nationwide.

PERMIT ME, JUST THIS ONCE, TO TALK ABOUT YAGBA POLITICS. ✍️ Temidayo John Tunde

Image
Yagba politics is a different ball game entirely. To make real impact in this zone  in this part of Kogi West  no be moi moi. It takes more than vision. It takes will. And it takes a stomach for what you’ll meet. We often say Yagba is blessed  and yes, it is. It’s a pot of wealth, wisdom, culture, and potential. But we have a few big problems: every community loves itself deeply but struggles to love the next. We’re divided not just by towns, but by ego, suspicion, and self-interest. We are brilliant, but we’ve not learned (coalition) to be one. Politics here isn’t just a game — it's a job for many. I no fit lie give you, about 70% of home-based people  those you'll refer to as the grassroots  see it as a livelihood. People with no political appointment, no office, still shining and whining. Retired men, party elders, and those whose own families may not even vote become foot soldiers and power brokers. You’ll hear things like: “Na me get Isanlu or E...

IFON AND YEYELAMO

Image
If you’re from Egbe or have roots in Yagbaland, chances are you’ve heard whispers—maybe even full-blown stories—about a mysterious spring along Patigi Road called Amo. But what if I told you that water isn't just water? That there's a spirit beneath the surface? A woman. A goddess. A legend. As the convener of Egbe Mekun Carnival, part of my mission is to document, preserve, and celebrate the unique stories and sacred traditions of our people. And trust me—IFON is one of the most intriguing. --- 💧 The Woman Who Sank Into the Ground Long ago, in the heart of our community, there lived a woman called Yeye Lamo. She was kind, peaceful, and devoted to her husband. But she had no children—and that changed everything. After waiting over 20 years for a child, her husband gave up and married another woman, who quickly bore him six children. The home once peaceful became hostile. Yeye Lamo was mocked, accused, and emotionally abandoned. One day, after a particularly cruel e...

THE MAESTRO OF THE SAVANNAH Professor Jimo Akolo, MFR (1935–2023)Three Years of Remembrance — The Brush Still Speaks

Image
Three years ago, silence visited the earthly home of a man whose life had long ceased to belong merely to himself. Yet history refused to mourn him in silence. For ordinary men pass away and memory slowly retreats. But there are rare souls whose departure enlarges their presence. Professor Jimo Bola Akolo, MFR, belonged to that sacred league of men. Today, we do not merely remember his passing. We celebrate the triumph of a life that transformed talent into legacy, culture into civilization, and creativity into immortality. Professor Jimo Akolo was not merely an artist. He was a movement clothed in humility. A silent titan who redrew the boundaries of African modernism and carried the dignity of his homeland into the galleries of the world. Long before his name echoed through prestigious art institutions and international exhibitions, he was first a son of Egbe. The earth of Yagba raised him. The spirit of Okunland shaped him. And Kogi State proudly presented him...
