Adekunle Gold charges youths to channel BBNaija desperation towards voting in forthcoming general elections

Since the auditions for this year’s edition of highly coveted reality show Big Brother Nigeria, kicked off on Friday, February 1, 2019, social media has been set abuzz with different Nigerians reacting to the crowd at different audition grounds.

Legit.ng previously reported the early arrival of prospective housemates at audition centers across different parts of the state. Some overzealous youths got to the venues as early as 4am, which was against the announced call time of 7am.

Many had taken to social media to berate youths who had trouped out en masse, for seeing the reality show as an escape from poverty and an opportunity to make quick money.

Newly wed singer, Adekunle Gold, has also given a piece of his mind as he recently took to his social media page to charge the youths to show the same overzealous energy towards the forthcoming 2019 general elections.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari?

We should therefore not expect dramatic comedy to be the same as real life. Generally, the plays have good endings or resolutions, so when a play ends happily, we refer to it as comedy. In most comedies, the principal characters begin in a state of opposition either to one another or to their world or both. By the end of the play their opposition .is replaced by harmony. Aristotle in-.his “Poetics” insisted that in tragedy men are shown “better than they are”, while in comedy “worse than they are”. For him it is an artistic imitation of men of inferi...
