My niece got kidnapped on her way back from the farm in Ikere, Ekiti state, around 3pm yesterday. She was kidnapped alongside another person. They're asking for N10m to release both of them. What a country!

Earlier this week, I won the 2024 African Prize for Investigative Journalism (online category). The award, held this year in Nouakchott, Mauritania, celebrates top investigative reports done across Africa.

Thankfully, while I missed the flight, I didn’t miss the prize. A major lesson from this is that we should never give up in life. #GoForGold.

It feels great to win this year after I emerged as a finalist and was given a special mention at the 2023 edition in Dakar, Senegal. The unfortunate part was that I missed my flight for this event. Sad, isn’t it?

What Onyeka Onwenu's Death Taught Me I’ve known and loved Onyeka for her songs, but I was somehow not familiar with her journalism side. This year, my organisation wanted us to interview trailblazers, and when looking at the list of personalities lined up, I had no difficulty
