Electricity: A Catalyst or a Magic Wand?
Is Nigeria’s lack of 24/7 electricity really an excuse for low productivity, or is it just one piece of a much larger puzzle? While stable power is a proven driver of economic growth, it’s not a magic wand that guarantees prosperity.

Bankslaughter: A Case Study of Heritage Bank’s Collapse
Sometime in 2020, I picked up a new concept called ‘bankslaughter’, a term I found intriguing but had no immediate use for – until now. This week, it became relevant to write about it after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) revoked the licence of Heritage Bank. Let me explain what it means and why…
From Streams to Canals: The Environmental Toll of Sachetisation in Nigeria
In light of the ban imposed by the Lagos state government on styrofoam and single-use plastic packaging, I revisited an article I wrote some time ago.
