When, on February 2023, Dr. Stella Chinweudo Ekwueme stepped into the prestigious Enugu State College of Education Technical (ESCET), average onlookers saw no more than a mere female academic trying her luck at tertiary education facility administration. Little did anyone knew that before our very eyes was quintessential Administrator of high repute, with uncompromising determination to revolutionize the institution. Twelve months down the line, she is already attracting the envy of her contemporaries.

I don’t know how it is in your part of town. But it’s been a nightmare in mine, a supposedly middle-class residential area in Abuja, Nigeria’s federal capital. Rolling blackouts do not begin to explain the depth of the misery. It’s been a dreadful time of rolling and erratic blackouts. Like surfing an angry wave, if you understand what I mean.

In today's political landscape, it is a rarity to find a leader who upholds the principles of meritocracy, justice, and fairness in the governance of a state. However, in Enugu State, Governor Peter Mbah has (so far) demonstrated an uncommon affinity for these ideals in his approach to appointments and his handling of administrative issues. His emphasis on selecting commissioners and cabinet members based on merit rather than political connections or considerations has set a new standard for governance in the state. Additionally, his objective handling of the recent complaints brought by the management of Enugu State College of Education Technical (ESCET) showcases his commitment to upholding justice, even if it means making difficult decisions.

Last week, I asked the question which life we would love to live – biblical Abraham’s or Lazarus’s – and it drew a lot of comments. I must admit that it isn’t everyone who can connect with last week’s piece, hence today’s title of the deep calling out to the deep, which is taken from Psalm 42, written by the Sons of Korah. As the deer pants after the streams of water, so does the average Nigerian today pants after essential commodities, foodstuffs especially, for sustenance. As the Sons of Korah looked up to God for help and deliverance, so do poverty-stricken Nigerians cry unto their government and religious leaders for reprieve and succour.

SOS, it’s an emergency: Nigeria under President Bola Tinubu is in an emergency situation. The next four year of Tinubu’s administration must be regarded in law as a FORCE MAJUERE; a season of extended social and economic crisis without end.

Disparity of roles between ecclesiastics and politicians are generally expected to translate to differences in values, lifestyles and creeds, but this pattern has been disrupted and bridged in Nigeria by materialism. Moral disconnects, lust and insatiability for money, wealth, fame, influence and power have conspired to bring the men of God to the level of politicians. This is evident in the Pentecostal ministries where some founding pastors and general overseers {GOs} no longer exhibit ascetic disposition and restraints from material allures.
