Dr. Joseph Targema Orkar is the elder brother of late Major Gideon Orkar, who led a coup to overthrow the former military President, Ibrahim Babangida in 1990. In this interview with HENRY IYORKHASE in Makurdi, he calls for a revolution in Nigeria, saying it is the only way to regain the lost values and vision of the nation’s founding fathers. Excerpts:

Would you say the courage of your late brother, Major Gideon Orkar, executed 23 years ago for attempting to overthrow former Military President, Ibrahim Babangida, runs in the family?

First, I want to correct the impression that late Major Gideon was my immediate younger brother. He was the fourth after me. There were three others before him. Generally, we are an upright family and that was the way we were brought up by our late father. Late Gideon followed the family tradition – fearlessness and forthrightness, coupled with the characteristics he acquired in the military.

It certainly didn’t look that way during his team’s Elite 8 game against Duke. Ware went up to block a shot, and came down awkwardly, suffering a compound fracture of his right leg.

When a woman is getting it on with you,  it's a total turnoff to hear a creepy cliché that instantly makes her think of her dear old dad.

The gov is fair to all religions — Commissioner

Osun State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Sunday Akere, in this interview with TUNDE ODESOLA, clears the air on the allegation that Governor Rauf Aregbesola has an Islamisation agenda

There are fears that Governor Rauf Aregbesola is planning to Islamise Osun. What is your take on this?

No statement is farther from the truth than this. Religion is a very personal, sentimental and volatile issue. So, we must be mindful of the way we use it. The State of Osun is one of the most peaceful states in the nation and we want it to remain so. Osun, like other states of the South-West, is highly heterogeneous in terms of people of diverse religious beliefs. We have people who worship all forms of gods like Ogun, Sango, Obatala, Iyemoja, Esu, etc. We also have the major dominant religions, Christianity and Islam. In all these diverse forms of worship, the Yoruba have co-existed for years without any religious upheavals. The region has never witnessed any religious crisis owing to the accommodative, tolerant and reasonable nature of the Yoruba. The State of Osun, as the ancestral source of all Yoruba is, for obvious reasons, very rich in culture and tradition.
