• Gen. Yakubu Gowon Says Two Christian Friends in Plateau Betrayed Him in New Memoir

Former Nigerian Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon (Rtd.), has revealed that two of his Christian friends from Plateau State betrayed him, saying the experience remains one of the painful memories of his life.

Gowon made the revelation in his newly launched memoir, My Life of Duty, unveiled in Abuja during a ceremony attended by prominent national figures, including Vice President Kashim Shettima, Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II, former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, former First Lady Aisha Buhari, former Heads of State, senior military officers, diplomats, and other distinguished guests.

In the book, the former Head of State recalled that two of his Christian friends in Plateau State abandoned and betrayed him, noting that the incident left a lasting emotional impact.

According to Gowon, despite the passage of time, he still feels the pain of what he described as their betrayal.

The elder statesman explained that one of the major reasons for writing My Life of Duty was to correct what he described as longstanding misconceptions and inaccurate interpretations about his life, his leadership, and the policies of his administration.

He said the memoir offers his personal account of key events in Nigeria

  • Three Years After Lalong Left Office, Nigerians Reflect on His Legacy

Three years after the administration of former Plateau State Governor Simon Bako Lalong came to an end, residents and political observers have continued to reflect on his eight-year tenure, with discussions centering on his achievements, shortcomings, and overall legacy.

Across social media platforms and public forums, many Nigerians have been asking a common question: "Three years after the Lalong administration ended, what stands out most to you about his time in office?"

The question has generated diverse reactions, with some respondents highlighting infrastructure development, road construction, educational reforms, and efforts to promote peaceful coexistence during his administration.

Others, however, pointed to persistent security challenges, economic concerns, unemployment, and governance issues, arguing that these remain among the defining aspects of Lalong

How Fashion Rules the World presents an expose on the continuing significance of fashion in the 21st century.

The style and trends of the fashion industry dominate the world’s consciousness more than they have ever been.

Fashion controls not only the way people dress but also influences their preferences concerning homeware design, makeup fashion, as well as people’s overall attitudes.

Fashion is not just a means of clothing your body.

It is the essence of your personality and beliefs, and designers are well aware of the power they hold. 

Designers’ predictions and designs for the coming season are more hotly anticipated than any other revelation in the world.

How Fashion Rules the World

In the 60s, flower power did not only mean flares and tunics, but it also summed up the whole attitude of a generation, and this is even more prominent today.

Keeping Up With Fashion

Nowadays, fashion is bold and daring, and this reflects a noughties generation that is not afraid to say what they think or wear what they want.

To keep up with the latest fashions, this generation subscribes to fashion magazines.

More so, they keep a keen eye on what has appeared in shops and what has been there for a long time.

How Fashion Rules the World

They also go to fashion shows to see what the designers are putting on the catwalk this season, and therefore what will make it INTO the shops.

For the extremely wealthy, they might have a relationship with a designer who will keep them well ahead of the current trends.

Therefore, many people wanting to know what the new fashion lines are going to be will watch what celebrities are wearing.

Significance of Fashion

Trends in fashion unify women and men around the world.

Yet still allow people the ability to portray their style at the same time.

A period of time portrayed in a picture can be identified immediately just by the style of clothes the people are wearing.

This sums up just how powerful and all-encompassing fashion is.

Fashion can change from one second to the next, but what never changes is the hold it has on society and the role it plays in the modern world.

Fashion is so important that whole magazines are dedicated to it.

TV programs dedicate hours of transmission time to the subject, and people discuss it with their friends continually.

Being ahead of fashion is for many, the ultimate achievement.

Although being too ahead of the fashion is just as bad as being behind it!

If you are too far ahead people will think what you are wearing is not in fashion, because it isn’t, yet.

Designers continue to market the importance they know people put on fashion, and people continue to hang on to designers’ every move in the fashion world.

Therefore, as long as this carries on, fashion will continue to maintain its dominant position in society for a very long time to come.

It influences not only what we wear, but everything we do, say and even think.

This is why fashion does indeed rule the world.
