Oct 10, 2024 | herald.ng | Maxwell Adeyemi Adeleye

As someone who watched the Nigerian oil industry with frustration and hope, the recent news of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) ending its exclusive purchase agreement with the Dangote Refinery gives me an unexplainable joy. For years, Nigeria has been stuck in the claws of monopolistic practices and market inefficiencies in which Dangote seems to be the center of it.

“Live not as though there were a thousand years ahead of you. Fate is at your elbow; make yourself good while life and power are still yours,” so said the Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher, Marcus Aurelius, who had spent valuable time in meditation, and from deep moments of reflections.

How often do you listen to that inner voice of yours? Well, I have a strong instinct. Once, I failed to obey it and I almost paid dearly for it. Since then, I have developed the habit of listening to that inner voice of mine. Thank God, I listened to it again about two months ago and God saved me from a terrible auto crash last Friday. I am a committed member of Ansar-ud-Deen Society. Therefore, in all the places I have served, I usually make myself available in the service of Allah.

Oct 6, 2023 | herald.ng | Reno Omokri |John Ogunsemore
