By UbongAbasi Ise  Power can be far more dangerous than brutish alcoholic concoction. Give it to the cool-headed, it would freeze his brains, and makes him very clueless. You give it to a hot-headed, it bakes his brains and turn him to a blind and feral crook. If you give the power to a fool,  it turns his brains upside down and everything ends in disarray. Why our society is permanently malfunctioning is because the brain-box that is controlling the entire system is suffering from damaging effect of excess power, and it is, simply, not working.  Taking a look on the front page of The Post Newspaper edition of Friday 15th May 2020, one wiould see "...Usoro Akpanusoh is a stupid man." This was part of the interview caption attributed to Esit Eket local government council chairman, Mr. Iniobong Robson. A read through the content exposes poverty of ideas and outright display of plebeian rascality. When the newspaper crew asked the honorable chairman if he actually d...

We thank God that created the heaven and the earth, and everything therein. He arranged rest  as paramount  in  his agenda for all living things. Looking at the way he arranged rest and relaxation, one would just marvel. He is an all-round wise God;  He arranged both time of rest and place of rest for man and everything he created. He created the day for work as well as night for sleep and relaxation. In most cases, if you missed the laws of nature, you maybe forced to do the otherwise.  That's why you see some people sleeping on duty probably because they missed their t...
