What does the law really say about consensus primaries in Nigeria? Until the law backing consensus is followed to the letter, a ‘consensus’ candidate cannot and should not emerge. In this episode of Election 101 in 5 (Season 2.0), you will understand the legality of Consensus, and how aspirants through this process are selected. Watch here 👉 youtu.be/kV_QD5s9W7w

Africa's "Modern" Constructions Are Climate Disasters Africa needs buildings that make sense for Africa. Too many of our cities are filled with glass, concrete, and steel structures that trap heat, block airflow, and force people to depend on expensive air conditioning just to survive indoors. That is the opposite of "development." It is actually spectacularly poor planning. Our ancestors understood climate before it became a conference topic. They built with the land, used local materials, created shade, allowed air to move, and designed homes that worked with the environment. Unfortunately, we keep copying people who never designed for our climate in the first place. Construction in Africa needs to be decolonized, and that must start with a mindset change and re-education.

Somewhere between 2025 and 2030, the global economy will complete a shift that has been building for decades. The jobs that will define that economy, the ones that offer stability, growth, and genuine economic participation, will require digital skills as a baseline. Not as a specialization. As a starting point. For young women and girls in Nigeria, particularly those in underserved and displaced communities, that shift is not an abstraction. It is the difference between a future that is available to them and one that moves forward without them. Nearly one billion girls worldwide currently lack the digital literacy needed to use the internet safely and productively. They are not behind because they are incapable. They are behind because the infrastructure, the training, and the deliberate investment required to bring them into the digital economy have not followed them into the communities where they actually live. Digital skills are no longer a pathway to opportunity. They are the gate. And a girl who cannot pass through that gate does not just miss out on a job. She misses out on the economic agency, the financial independence, and the capacity to shape her own future that a digitally connected world makes possible for those it reaches. At AREAi, our Digital Skills Accelerator for Women and Girls was built around the urgency of that reality. A structured, phased programme that meets young women and girls between the ages of 13 and 25 where they are, building digital awareness, competence, and employability skills that translate directly into economic opportunity, even within the constraints of displacement and disadvantage. Because the digital future is arriving, whether or not every girl is ready for it. Our job is to make sure more of them are.

We’re still reliving the impact of the Gen-Z Democratic Innovation Lab. What began as a space filled with doubt and frustration about Nigeria’s democracy has grown into a community of young people ready to carry the message of civic action and democratic participation everywhere they go. From disbelief to action, this is what youth-led change looks like. #DemocracyInAction #GenZforgoodgovernance

Did you know? Climate change does not affect everyone equally. When climate disasters happen, women and girls often face higher risks, from unsafe journeys for water to increased vulnerability in displacement. It’s not just about the environment.
It’s about safety, dignity, and protection. Climate justice must include gender justice. #DidYouKnow #ClimateJustice #GBV #GenderEquality

@InibeheEffiong @PoliceNG As a Parent, I find the content of that text very disturbing and this has opened my eyes to the reality of checking my kids texts along with all other School materials. May God empower you and grant you the wisdom through this case.

We have taken up this case, following the retention of our services by the victim. It is embarrassing that the @PoliceNG has refused to disengage from cases like this. The fact that Nigerians are being regularly harassed and intimidated by the police for making reviews online of products speaks to a deep rooted institutional decay. Mrs. Mary Queen is the latest victim of the preposterous weaponization of the police by business owners against consumers. She is presently being haunted for publicly reviewing a controversial nursery school English textbook, which she bought for her five-year-old child. She complained about some contents in the book which she found very disturbing. I have read the passages from the textbook she referenced, I also find them worrisome. Appropriate measures will be taken.

Primaries have begun. Before the public vote, parties are already choosing who gets on the ballot, often shaping the outcome long before election day. If this process lacks transparency, voters are left with limited choices. This is the moment to pay attention, because who emerges here determines what options Nigerians will eventually have. #WatchingTheVote #DemocracyInAction #Election
