 Renowned 20th-century philosopher Jürgen Habermas dies at 96 Jürgen Habermas, the German philosopher widely recognized for his contributions to modern political thought and democratic theory, died Saturday in Starnberg, Germany, at the age of 96. His passing was confirmed in a statement by his Berlin-based publisher, Suhrkamp Verlag, which noted that Habermas’s work, translated into more than 40 languages, had left a lasting impact on global intellectual discourse. Jonathan Landgrebe, head of the publishing house, described him as “a significant philosopher, ever-present advisor, and dear friend.” For more than six decades, Habermas helped shape postwar and post-reunification German political life. He is best known for conceptualizing the “public sphere,” a domain for discussion free from state influence, which he argued is essential for a functioning democracy. Rising to prominence with the Frankfurt School in the mid-20th century, Habermas offered rigorous critiques of capitalis...

OONI OF IFE,COVERS TODAY SUNDAY ALLURE VANGUARD AS HE SPEAKS OF GOOD SACRIFICES.{PHOTOS}.

                                                     Today sunday the 16th of October 2016,the Ooni of Ife Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi,covered Allure Vanguard.Three questions caught my attention and the first question is:
1.Are there sacrifices that you wouldn't perform?
Answer: Sacrifices that are of evil I will not perform.But the ones that are nature based,why not? If you go to a church or mosque,they use frankincense; we use it in the traditional way.We call it turari.Catholics use the Rosary,Muslims use the Tesibai.We use opele.It is the same; one is just packaged more than the other.
2. Are there things that have changed about you since becoming the Ooni?
Answer: A lot of things have changed about me.Now,to the Glory of God,I know the truth.And,the truth is that our culture is not demonic.What was demonic about it was that our ancestors used it in demonic ways.Fortunately,lot of people tapped into it.All the inventions are tied to all the deities in Africa.Name any invention and I will tell you its source in nature.
3.Kabeyesi,what plans do you have to turn Ife around?
Answer: The Ile-Ife ''My dream'' will be strategically positioned to empower its people socially,economically and culturally to bring about the desired developments.Now,with our resolve to transform Ile-Ife we are 'SET' to leave no stone upturned,in the drive to put Ile-Ife on the map of the world.Our ultimate goal is to reposition the House of Oduduwa as a worthy example of successful inward-looking community.There is a huge possibility for Ile-Ife to experience tremendous growth through industrialization and development projects like a company managed by dedicated sons and daughters of Ife and all Ife enthusiasts.I have no doubt,Ife will be great again due to its economic dexterity.Ife has one of the largest land mass in the South-west beaming with natural resources including three out of the four factors of production' 'land','labour' and 'entrepreneurship' and with our great resolve we shall work towards 'capital' creation.
