The plenary session of the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday, April 30, 2013, was almost a bedlam. Passions ran very high. Senators who spoke on the floor of the Senate Chamber, one after another, screamed with both angst and guilt.

The life and times of the former leader of the defunct Republic of Biafra, late Dim Christopher Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, the Ikemba Nnewi, and the Eze Igbo Gburu Gburu, was characterized essentially by intense drama, suspense, strife, tension, and fun, as well. From infant to youth, and adulthood, and old age, the leader of Ndigbo was controversial and for the right reasons, even in death.

• * Day He Was Embarrassed Before His Wife

By Celestine Okafor (Editor-in-Chief)

He emerged from the inner room, though tired, but still radiating his characteristic ebullient mien. This is one aspect of Chief John Nnia Nwodo Jnr. anyone encountering the former two-time Minister, Economist, lawyer, and the immediate past President-General of Ohaneze Ndigbo, would first notice about him. Not only that, you will come away with the true impression that Nnia is innately affable. He has the ability to flow with people irrespective of class condition. But his assertive disposition sometimes issues an erroneous impression of him as an aloof character.
