WHEN WILL IMO STATE REGAIN HER SIGHT?

April 17, 2023

This text discusses the corrupt leadership in Imo state through the allegory of Aesop's fable about the old woman and the doctor. Aesop was a slave and a philosopher of note, he embodies an epigram not uncommon in human history; his fame is all the more deserved in view of his logical cum allegorical way of presenting issues. In fact, his fame I must say is well deserved in our state now due to the correlating factor of his fables in our present-day democracy. In his book, “Aesop’s Fables” an interesting fable is highlighted on the old woma

March 27, 2023

Following the recent concluded general elections in Nigeria, it is obvious that both INEC and APC have no surviving souls respectively. The soul, yes, I mean the soul. No one in the world of matter, energy, space and time can plunge deeply into the realm of the soul without wise guides. Years of lone wolf exploration of philosophy, mythology, religion, poetry, literature, art and music went into the creation of so many volumes on the soul. Yes to fathom the unfathomable soul we immediately plunge into mysteries. According to the Gree...

March 5, 2023

There is something about truth that makes it more interesting than fiction. Truth is undying and very axiomatic that the only way to destroy it is to define it. If one defines truth, he limits it.

I must confess hitherto that the Christian concept of ‘Immaculate Conception’ has been a controversial issue in every aspects of human history. In the history of Religion, it has taken different dimension to the extent that thos...

March 5, 2023

Anthony de Mello in one of his witty reflections on ‘Imprisonment’ once said: “you are so proud of your intelligence,’ said the Master to a disciple. ‘You are like the condemned man who is proud of the vastness of his prison cell.” Whenever I reflect on this saying, my mind these days go around the concept of political corruption in Nigeria in general, the dogged efforts and determinations of the present Head of State in tackling the malaise. An old French friend I met decades back in the Philippines would say ‘pourquoi pas?’- Why not? Why w

Prof Protus Nathan Uzorma

February 13, 2023

According to Plato in his metaphoric and poetic way of expressing higher reality, he told a story about Er, a warrior who came back to life on the funeral pyre, after having been believed dead. Er according to Plato, was said to have seen many things in the afterlife, but he was told that he must return to physical life to tell others what death is like. The story continues that just before he returned, he saw souls which were being prepared to be born into the physical life. They all journeyed to the Plain of Oblivion, through terrible and
