History is often written not only through elections won or roads commissioned, but through bold ideas that fundamentally alter the trajectory of society. On Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at the serene campus of Godfrey Okoye University, Ugwuomu Nike, Enugu, history found another defining moment.

This is the concluding part of this write-up, originally published on April 25, 2022. Following the publication of parts one and two over the past two weeks, I have revisited this article because its message remains as relevant and timely today as it was when it was first published.

Someone accosted me recently and asked the question: Why are you Yoruba always the troublers of Nigeria? And my mind immediately went to the same question King Ahab had asked Prophet Elijah in the Bible! “And it came to pass, when (King) Ahab saw (Prophet) Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he (Elijah) answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that you have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and thou hast followed Baalim” (1 Kings 18: 17 & 18). So, you can guess the answer I gave my accuser who, incidentally, hails for the arch-conservative North.

Journalists like to think that the world would be finished without them. Nothing illustrates this vanity more than the joke by my old school journalism teacher that even when the world ends, reporters will be there to tell those in paradise what is happening on the other side.
