INSURGENCY: Religion is the cause - Emeka Anyaoku


The former Secretary General of the Commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, has said the contest for political powers is the main cause of the crises currently rocking the country. He also blamed the insurgency in the Northeast on religion.

The ex-Commonwealth scribe spoke at the opening ceremony of a national conference on human security held in Abuja Tuesday. Anyaoku, however, called for the establishment of an inclusive government since the country has already been torn apart by internal conflict.

The conference was organized by the National Orientation Agency and the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation. He said in a situation where such inclusive governance is absent, the task of reconciliation and healing of memories among citizens becomes difficult and even unrealizable.

Anyaoku said with the emergence of the Boko Haram sect in Nigeria, religion has become a contributory factor to the spread of insurgency and conflict. He urged Nigerians to continue to affirm the need for all religions to treat one another with mutual respect and love.

The Director General of the National Orientation Agency, Mike Omeri, in his welcome address, said the prevailing insecurity in various parts of the country necessitated the conference.

Queen Ahneva Adeniyi- Adegeye speaks about African Men and Polygamy




She is pretty and very confident of herself, she tells you that African men are naturally polygamous in nature. Wife of juju maestro, King Sunny Ade and fashion icon, Queen Ahneva Adeniyi- Adegeye has revealed that African men are naturally born to love more than one woman.

 Ahneva Hilson, who got married to King Sunny Ade in 1984, argued that no African man has one wife, arguing that most men have a wife, a mistress and a concubine.

Los Angeles born Queen Ahneva in an interview with a leading magazine, said that African men love to spread love across and to have more than one woman they love.

“Once you see any man, you see polygamy. No African man has one wife. I don’t care if he’s an indigenous African American or African Caribbean, it’s in their nature to spread love across and to have more than one woman they love. Polygamy only puts a stamp on it to make legal. Most men have a wife, a mistress and a concubine. So, in a way, polygamy is every where in Africa and all over the world.”

Is it truly a Man’s world as James Brown said?
