What Gen-Zs Were Not Told About Abia Under Orji Uzor Kalu From 1999 — 2007, By Sunny Idika
Generation Z (often shortened to Gen-Zs), is a term used to describe people born during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Some sources give the specific year range of 1997–2012, although the years spanned are sometimes contested or debated because generations and their zeitgeists are difficult to delineate.

[OPINION] Sam Onuigbo: The Nurturing Of A Quintessential Transformational Leader, By Tony Icheku

They even added that Nigeria as a nation should, for this reason, be “renegotiated”. To me, this landmark proclamation is a significant departure from what was the...

There are 3 issues most national opinion molders hold against former Governor of Abia State, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu: N500 for pregnant women; hunters and palm wine tappers as Ebubeagu operatives, and Chicken Republic as metaphor for economic growth.
