In the last 50 years, Finland has transformed itself from an agriculturally oriented culture into a competitive, technologically advanced information society. This small, Nordic country of five million people has the least corruption and the best competitiveness rate of any country in the world, according to international indices. Over 85 percent of Finnish households have access to a broadband Internet connection and over 90 percent of the active population has a mobile phone.

Such favorable economic, technical, and social developments help explain why Finland again has become an attractive destination for both economic and forced migrants. The first wave of immigrants - Swedes, Russians, Central Europeans, Tatars, and Jews - came to the capital Helsinki and other major towns from the end of the 19th century through the 1930s for economic opportunities.

Three statistics indicate the relatively strong impact of today's immigration. First, the number of foreigners...

I will like to start my presentation by first of all examining the concept of racial dignity. Racial dignity stems from two words: Race and Dignity. Race -: The second edition of the Collins English dictionary defined race as "a group of people of common ancestry, distinguished from others by physical characteristic, such as hair type ,colours of eyes and skin stature, etc. It further went on to state that the "principal races are Caucasoid(Whites) Mongoloid(Asian) and Negroid(Blacks), and the human race consisted of human beings collectively. From the above definition of race, one can vividly see that, the term race is just a way of distinguishing human beings based on the different characteristics and culture which they posses. It is a way of identifying and classifying human beings into different groups based solely on differences in physical attributes and ancestry backgrounds. It therefore, means that the term "race" in reality has nothing to do with superiority or perfection. If...

This earth is not a paradise where the lion can lie next to a lamb in peace, as the Bible puts it. Life is now measured with three “Ws”, which are who, what and where. Starting with “who”, it consists of who you are, who you are with, who is with you. Secondly “what”, it goes with what you are, what have you achieved, what you are capable to achieve. Thirdly “where”, it goes with where you are in comparison with others. These are what I call the “the transcendence Ws”. Why is it so? Because (both individually and collectively) they test human limits, they define human wits and they assign the distinction mark of power. Media culture helps to shape the prevalent view of the world and deepest values. It defines what is considered good or bad, positive or negative, moral or evil. Media stories and images provide the symbols, myths and resources which help to constitute a common culture for the majority of individuals in many parts of the world today. Media culture provides...

My group of Nigerian friends who sat together with melancholy glued to their countenances on that cold winter morning at the popular Nigerian Restaurant in Canning Town, East London, probably underestimated the depth of social decadence and violence sweeping through our nation. This gathering was far back in 1986 following the unexplained parcel bomb death of Dele Giwa. In retrospect, they were unprepared for the social mayhem that this despicable act unfolded in the country. Nigeria has of today turned to a graveyard of sort for her children where life is cheap and meaningless. Life has become a commodity that can be dispensed of at the slightest whim. The sights of corpses and assassins have become an everyday phenomenon on our streets. We have systematically entrenched violence into our psyche and into that of our young children. Heaven knows the type of nation we are intent on creating for ourselves! Robert...

Across the globe, Africa is presented as ‘no good’ a continent. It is violence, hunger, disease, corruption, poverty and ignorance. These images are what tend to re-present the continent’s intrinsic existence especially outside the continent. Thus, Africa’s dirt being displayed on international medias, are often disturbing to read or watch. We all know that bad news sales. Thus, those in the media industry, who earn their livings as news agencies, often make it a point of mission to dig out the worst out of Africa. It is contra-fact to deny that Africa of both the 19th and the 20th century was a struggling continent. It was a continent ridden with international debt and external resource exploitation. ‘He who plays the pipe, dictates the tune’ goes an adage. Africa, represented by the corruption of her leaders was an addict to IMF, World Bank and other sources of international...

Sometimes an event, scarcely noticed, never captured for YouTube, can ripple through a nation's consciousness. So it was on Saturday, 29 December, 2008, at Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, Nigeria with the unexpected arrival of the anti-corruption crusader Nuhu Ribadu. Five years earlier, in 2003, Ribadu, a relatively unknown police chief, became head of a newly-formed organization called the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission of Nigeria (EFCC). Prior to its establishment, no Nigerian official had been convicted for theft, despite estimates that corruption had robbed the Nigerian people of U.S. $380 billion since the country's independence. The EFCC was part of a package of reforms introduced by President Olusegun Obasanjo. Ribadu's statutory mission was to fight official corruption. His own aim was more ambitious: to change how Nigerians saw themselves and how the world viewed Nigeria. One of Ribadu's first accomplishments was to curb the infamous "419" scams -- formally...
