For over a decade I have been committed to what my pastor called Ministry of Helps in his ministration in 1997 and also prophecised the internet revolution that same year and his prophecy has come to pass. And I am one of the most popular Nigerians blogging about Nigeria and the rest of the world.I love Nigeria and committed to the nation building of a New Nigeria in the leadership of Africa among the comity of nations.I have spent millions of naira for the advocacy for the education of the millions of underprivileged girls out of school in Nigeria since 2013 and I have gone as far as paying human traffickers to release a secondary school girl trafficked to Libya in 2016 and she returned to Benin in Edo State. I spent hundreds of thousands of naira for her rehabilitation.Widows and other needy people have received as much as I can give.Since the 2019 COVID-19 pandemic, incomes from my social media channels have been reduced and compelled me to borrow to make ends meet and continu

GET BOOKS ON AWOLOWO AND NIGERIAN POLITICAL LEADERS Chief Obafemi Awolowo: The Political Moses is a story of a man who dedicated the entirety of his life to serve humanity and the development of mankind. The Author makes use of the noun Moses to depict the tiresome journey of an activist who fought rigorously alongside others to gain independence for his people. The fact that his ambition to be president of Nigeria was foiled is in itself a matter of discussion transcending the Nigerian political debate till now. As late Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu once said Awolowo, the Best President Nigeria never had.The book investigates the celebrated treasonable felony of 1962; bringing into focus the case hearings and the political unrest of the period, party system and political parties in Nigeria, Nigeria electoral processes from Pre-colonial era to the fourth republic, review of political prisoners around the world, and making succinct recommendations for Nigeria electoral processes.Chief Obaf

I am Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima, Publisher/Editor of Nigerian Times blog. Being a self-employed writer and human rights advocate fighting against corruption and violation of human has been challenging and often traumatic in Nigeria. I am also known as the Champion of the education of the millions of underprivileged girls out of school in Nigeria and developing SaaS applications for wealth creation and distribution for the reduction of poverty among the majority of Nigerians for the nation building of a New Nigeria in the leadership of Africa among the comity of nations.Fighting corruption in Nigeria is suicidal, because of the institutionalization of corruption in the society from the street to the corridors of power in the government. And majority of Nigerians don't fight or protest against corruption if the corrupt government shares the loot with them even when only the crumbs of the national cake are left for them in what they call "You Chop I Chop" government.Majo

Nigerians Report described Mr. Sanusi as “A ‘sanitary officer’ to bank on for cleansing the stench in our banking stables” and commended him for his laudable sanitization of the Nigerian banking industry; for having the conscience to do the right thing which his predecessor, Mr. Chukwuma Soludo failed to do; particularly the sacking of corrupt CEOs and executive directors of mismanaged banks. Mr. Sanusi’s disclosures of the sharp practices by Nigerian banks rattled the general public, embarrassed the bankers and disgraced the celebrated billionaires as big debtors siphoning millions of dollars as loans to enrich themselves and many of the banks were rendered insolvent.

Inside a typical prison in Nigeria.Nigerian Prisons, the Courts and Imprisoned Terrorists~ By John Egbeazien OshodiThe Nigerian courts and the prisons have in the last few months become intensively involved in terrorists being imported from our streets into the penal system.Nigeria, unlike the Euro-American or Western world does not have the enormous technological, security and psychological experience to put a full handle on the ‘war of terror’.Yet, hundreds of reported arrested members of Boko Haram sect are continuously being tossed into our already overcrowded prisons. Certainly, everyone including the prison personnel, convicts and the persons awaiting trial as well as their respective families are likely to be increasingly preoccupied with safety concernsConsidering that both the domestic and foreign terrorists come into the prisons with endured religious, political and social influences, these detained and convicted terrorists currently under lock up, could make ou

Boko Haram terroristsNigeria Needs Commandos and Mercenaries to Tackle the Storm Troopers of Boko HaramThe latest intelligence reports across the borders have confirmed that the dreaded Boko Haram Islamic terrorist sect on rampage in the middle belt and northern region of Nigeria is linked to the Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). The AQIM provided them training in guerrilla warfare and Islamic psychological warfare which the Boko Haram put to good use in their insurgency in Nigeria. Therefore, the Nigerian government must face the Boko Haram with drastic counter insurgency operations on all fronts as the United States of America is doing in counter terrorism operations in the Middle East where Academi and other private forces were engaged in the military commando operations to tackle the Al Qaeda, Taliban and other Islamic terrorist forces.The confirmation of the Al Qaeda link means that the mission of the Boko Haram is well organized and programmed to last for as long they are o

Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-IwealaPotential Benefits From Budget 2012 And Sure-P ~ By Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-IwealaAgainst the backdrop of the recent debate on the removal of fuel subsidies , and the calculated misinformation being peddled by opponents of this policy, it is pertinent to highlight, in more tangible terms, some of the significant allocations that have been made to essential sectors of the economy, both in the 2012 budget as well as the recently-launched Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P). This programme is a 3—4 year programme designed to mitigate the immediate impact of the removal of fuel subsidy and accelerate economic growth through investments in critically-needed infrastructure. It is noteworthy that, while the 2012 budget allocated the best possible amounts to these critical projects, additional resources are allocated to the same projects in the SURE programme to ensure that they are completed at faster rates than envisioned in the 2012 budget.

President Goodluck Jonathan. Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.Nigerians Report is yet to verify the purported plot to impeach President Goodluck Jonathan, but was reported to have failed. The plot was hatched in the U.S. to impeach him before the approval of the 2012 Budget and to stop the removal of the fuel subsidy on petrol. Top oil marketers of the cabal and legislators conspired in the plot, including the richest black man on earth according to the Forbes magazine. The plot leaked to President Goodluck Jonathan and the evidence is all on tape. That was why he hurriedly announced the removal of the fuel subsidy on petrol ahead of the scheduled deregulation of the downstream sector later in the year.The plotters who have scammed the government for years are even major donors and sponsors of first Presidential Library in Nigeria and also sponsored the election of President Goodluck Jonathan. But can the President have the balls to prosecute the sacred cows who presently are ab
