Some so-called scientists sometimes behave as if they are gods. They manipulate research processes; they deliberately tailor and guide the outcomes towards hidden agendas. They then publish such findings in research journals and blogs. That is the route used by controversial scholars in their academic exercises for seeking recognitions and grants.

Why could hardened supporters of YarÁdua’s nomination for the Presidency suddenly turn to harshest critics of the same person they have known for several years?
