Jeremiah 17:9 KJV
[9] The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

The heart of (wo)man is desperately wicked

Yeah, I am a professional graphics designer and I have a ministerial work (Pastor). I've been a graphics designer before going into the ministry so I felt I should continue my business which will actually fund me to sustain and get other things done. I am a teacher and a psychological therapist, I do a lot of things for fun, mostly gaming and designing and other things that allow me to socialize with people is the orphanage.
Christianity is not only about going to church, offering your service, paying your tithes and offering, for me I pray to be in a position where I'm able to do an empowerment for the community in general.
It brings me joy to see others survive, make it and achieve their set goals.

What I think human beings have in common most is survival
No matter the situation we are in, for example let's take Nigeria, no matter how terrible the Year might have been people will still come together during the Christmas and the festive periods to celebrate with loved ones. So that's it for me, the common thing we humans have is survival

I will definitely like to be remembered for my philanthropy, because for me givers never lack.
I'm a kind of person that loves to give so definitely I would love to be remembered for the positive changes I have made in my community and my family in general

More than a million I believe
Yes more than a million
I said more than a million because apart from the fact that from about 1 year to about 8 or so, I really can't remember all that happened but I know that I was a church boy, not exactly a pastor's child but I was always in the church and interacted with people in church.
From that age, I delved into music which is a highly social path.
So, from people joining the choir and me moving to other choirs, playing at different concerts and churches in Lagos and outside, different places I have lived, schooled, courses I've done, I believe I have Interacted with over a million people, and I say this because I'm a musician and music moves me around a lot.
I would want to be remembered as a musician who made positive music that healed and impacted lives

-Olabode-Folk-Olaleye
Musician, instrumentalist, songwriter, music producer

I would say yes I have met a million people. I was born into an extended family, that's a large number on its own,
I went to school, met a lot of people in my school, from primary school through secondary to university, and I go to a church where there is a lot of people there, Winners Chapel, so yes, and I'm a hair vendor for crying out loud.
I'm on the internet, and across social media, interacting with customers on a daily basis. I believe I've met more than that from birth till now

I have learnt a lot, both good and bad, both what they taught me verbally and by their behavior, and what experience taught me itself.
But the greatest thing I learnt from people is to always be myself; always be yourself around people, because if you're trying to be someone else to please people, they'll still have something negative to say about that someone else you're trying to be to please them. So just be yourself.
I keep an open mind when I meet someone for the first time, to receive and know the category to place the person; among the intelligent or dumb ones.

I want to be remembered at the end of my journey, at my very old age (it has to be at very old age) as the person that came into my life and my life changed. People should remember me as the light that I didn't know I needed, because I'm gifted with waking people up, confused people that don't know the next step to take, people that have the resources, I come into their life, wake them up, and all of a sudden they start working, start doing something because I spoke into their darkness and they received light.
So I would want to be remembered as someone that brought life into someone's life

LSSTF excited as 'Lagos Pride' Tunji Disu appointed as Acting IGP; Ogunsan says 'RRS products are now leading the Force'

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD


The Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF) has sent hearty congratulations to the acting Inspector-General of Police of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Ag. IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu on his appointment to the no. 1 Policing role in Nigeria. The appointment which happened yesterday followed the resignation of the immediate past IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP can report.

It would be recalled that the LSSTF boss, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan had received AIG Tunji Disu in the LSSTF Headquarters only a few days ago upon his assumption as AIG in charge of the Force CID Annex Alagbon, Lagos. However, as things would shape up, in quick succession, AIG Disu has left Lagos to take up the pinnacle role in the Nigeria Police Force, Abuja. The ag. IGP Disu was earlier decorated today with the new rank by President Bola Tinubu and has since moved to the Force Headquarters where he was welcomed by the immediate past IGP Egbetokun. He awaits confirmation of the Police Council to become the substantive IGP.

The LSSTF boss, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan, conveying the message of the public-private funding agency, LSSTF reiterated that ag. IGP Olatunji Disu is not only a Lagos born, he also did excellently well in his role as the Commander of the Lagos-owned special outfit, Rapid Response Squad RRS. This role, he highlighted 'defined ag. IGP Tunji Disu's career, warmed him into the hearts of Lagosians as the Head of 'The Good Guys of Lagos' as the RRS came to be known since his tenure, and emblazoned widespread goodwill on him across Nigeria.'

He added that Disu is a fine, athletic Police officer who has won laurels for Nigeria in sports internationally, and has also abundantly flourished in all roles that he has worked over the years. 'The track record of ag. IGP Disu will continue to shine for him in this new position. I believe that he is going to be exceptional.'

'With the assumption of ag. IGP Disu into this new role, I can clearly say that we are doing something right at the LSSTF. Our brainchild, the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), is growing stronger and stronger. It is producing the best of officers across the Nigeria Police. It has produced former IGP Kayode Egbetokun. Now it has produced our acting IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu. RRS products are now leading the Force'

'I pray for our acting IGP Disu that he will enjoy the strength of the Lord, the wisdom and guidance required to succeed, and protection as he works on this Herculean job. May you finish well, may you finish strongly in the service of the motherland,' Ogunsan prayed.


Thank You Jesus

Gbajabiamila Warns Against Rising Vices, Pledges Support for Ugokwe's Special Committee 

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD

The Presidency has affirmed its support for the Special Committee on Campaign Against Social Vices in Secondary and Tertiary Institutions, describing its mandate as critical to Nigeria’s future.

The Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, gave the assurance, on behalf of the presidency on Thursday, during a meeting with members of the committee led by its chairman, Professor Jerry Ugokwe at the State House, Abuja, according to a statement signed by the State House Director of Information & Public Relations, Abiodun Oladunjoye, and made available to the National Association of Online Security News Publishers (NAOSNP).

He expressed confidence in the integrity and capacity of the committee, noting that its designation as a “special committee” underscores the importance of its assignment, which centres on the wellbeing and moral development of young Nigerians.

The Chief of Staff warned that rising social vices among youths constitute a growing national concern, stressing that although young people are often described as the future, deliberate and coordinated action is required to secure that future.

According to him, many of the Federal Government’s ongoing reforms are forward-looking and targeted at the younger generation, cautioning that failure to properly guide and support youths could undermine the long-term gains of those reforms.

Gbajabiamila emphasised that tackling the menace requires a whole-of-society approach involving parents, teachers, religious leaders, communities and relevant institutions. He noted that the challenge has assumed near-pandemic proportions globally.

“It takes a community to raise a child, it’s not just about the parents anymore, it’s about the clergy, your neighbour, the teachers, so we all stand in locus parentis for the children.

“We cannot sit-back and do nothing and expect this country to grow or develop if you do not start from the foundation”, he noted.

He also underscored the strong link between law and morality, describing moral re-orientation as fundamental to addressing social vices in schools and campuses.

The Chief of Staff highlighted that government of the day has introduced policies and reforms targeted at youths and encouraged them to take advantage of the windows of opportunities offered.

While urging the committee to think innovatively and adapt to changing realities, Gbajabiamila drew from his experience of engaging students directly through school visits, saying such interactions have produced positive feedback.

He assured the committee of the Federal Government’s readiness to collaborate, adding that efforts would be made to mobilise support from corporate organisations through Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives and to explore possible budgetary provisions.

As a demonstration of personal commitment, he announced a ₦50 million seed donation to support the committee’s work, to be released in two tranches beginning with ₦25 million. He further assured members that his office would remain open for sustained engagement.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Committee, Professor Jerry Ugokwe, expressed appreciation for the audience and for the vision behind the committee’s establishment.

He said the initiative reflects the Federal Government’s commitment to confronting social vices among Nigerian students through a structured presidential intervention, describing youth moral wellbeing as a national priority requiring sustained institutional attention.

Professor Ugokwe explained that the committee’s mandate includes identifying and addressing social vices in schools, promoting discipline and responsible leadership, and collaborating with institutional authorities and security agencies to combat cultism, drug abuse, examination malpractice, cybercrime and related offences.

He added that the committee is also responsible for organising sensitisation campaigns and recommending policies to strengthen student welfare, campus security and academic excellence.

The chairman noted that since its inauguration, the committee has moved from policy to action, successfully holding major engagements in Edo and Kwara States as part of its nationwide drive.

He therefore appealed for the Chief of Staff’s strategic backing and stronger institutional ownership, including approval and logistical support for a proposed grand national launch of the campaign at the State House Conference Hall.

Professor Ugokwe assured the Presidency of the committee’s commitment to transparency, measurable outcomes and sustained stakeholder engagement.

Also speaking at the event, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Student Engagement, Comrade Sunday Asefon, who led members of the committee to the State House, highlighted the urgency of the intervention, citing a tragic case of a university student whose death was linked to drug intoxication.

He said such incidents underscore the need for a coordinated national response to rising social vices among young people.

According to Asefon, the committee was deliberately structured as a multi-stakeholder platform bringing together education authorities, religious leaders and other critical actors to drive holistic value reorientation among students.

He disclosed that following the committee’s inauguration, his office engaged the Federal Ministry of Education, which subsequently made a budgetary provision for the committee in the 2025 fiscal year, describing it as a useful starting point.

Despite limited resources, Asefon noted that the committee has already conducted programmes in Edo and Kwara States and is planning a larger national engagement in Abuja.

He therefore appealed for stronger institutional support, stressing that the committee’s work aligns closely with the administration’s broader youth development and nation-building agenda.


Thank You Jesus

'Our Union NUPENG PTD Ejigbo has proper biometric IDs for all bonafide members' - Authentic Chairman, Najeem Babatunde, says no to Ganiyu Oyebola-led faction, Protests


Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

The Chairman of the NUPENG PTD Ejigbo depot, Najeem Babatunde has urged all Nigerians, the government, law enforcement agencies, and the Law Court to help the Union weed out fake personalities who are parading themselves as members of the Union. Describing the recent incidents involving maiming of law-abiding citizens, destruction of properties, and unlawful protests as a 'sad development' which is aimed at disrupting the ongoing peaceful electioneering process in the Union, he pleaded with the general public to continue to transact with the organization which is well known across the country.

The authentic Chairman of NUPENG PTD Ejigbo, Mr. Najeem Babatunde made his assertion at a press briefing which he convened yesterday Wednesday, consequent to the Tuesday protests and recent happenings in Ejigbo. The intervention, he considered necessary so that Nigerians will know their side of the story and continue to work with the authentic Union duly recognized by law.

Mr. Najeem Babatunde reacted: 'What we saw yesterday was abnormal, the reason we have to counter that. We have clarification, we don't want a situation whereby the thugs, Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC), use our office as an identification because we are the real and authentic Petroleum Tanker Drivers in Ejigbo.'

'In the Year 2022, we went into an election in Shangisha, Magodo where we were elected. To resume at the office on the following day became a major issue. When we got to the office, we met different people, thugs, OPC, who occupied the office, chasing us with cutlasses, bottles etc so, we had to run for our lives telling us we should not be seen around.'

'Ever since, that is what they have been doing. They are always in possession of stones, bottles, asking us not to stay in the area. On our way for a break last week, they attacked us, throwing stones and bottles at us. with cutlasses. Some of us were injured with cutlasses. We had to run for our lives.'

Mr. Najeem Babatunde demonstrated their lawful association with the NUPENG at the national level, 'We are appealing to the government to come to our aid in this situation. We are not touts like them, we are original members of PTD, Ejigbo Unit. We are under Lagos Zonal Council, Lagos Zonal Council has about eight units, including Mosimi, NNPC Ejigbo, NNPC Ibadan, NNPC Ilorin. We are under Lagos Zonal Council being led by Comrade Omogbolahan Adigun. We are tired of this type of situation.'

'Our leaders have been trying. They are law abiding leaders. They like to follow the law. They don't want a situation whereby we have a clash with them. They are trying their possible best to resolve the issue but they are not allowing it. Even our leaders came here but were chased away with cutlasses and bottles.'

Babatunde stressed: 'There's no faction among us. We have regular elections which come up every four years. If you like me you would follow me. If you don't like me, you follow another, that's the way elections are. But they are now using cane to chase away our supporters.'

'Meanwhile, the man Ganiyu Oyebola boycotted the elections because he has no members, but OPC and thugs as members. All our bonafide members are here with their biometric cards which is our own identity card issued by the Union. His followers do not have identity cards, it's because they don't have the ID cards that they boycotted the election. Even their leader Comrade Ganiyu Oyebola doesn't have a membership ID card. He has never been to the unit to fill his membership card with just N200 for almost 15 years. He's definitely not part of us.'

Babatunde stressed that due to the impasse, there is little or no economic activity ongoing in the Ejigbo depot. 'Loading is not happening in Ejigbo anymore. This problem is affecting our business. We are appealing to the Federal Government to bring fuel back so that we can commence our work. Even our national leaders have appealed to the Federal Government to back fuel to all NNPC units. Please we need help.'

He appreciated the Nigeria Police for taking necessary actions in the past 10 days. 'They attacked us again on 16th February. Now, some of their members are currently in Kirikiri as we speak. That's what we want, we don't want thugs here anymore. We are saying no to thugs and OPC members in this vicinity.

Lending his voice to the matter, the Secretary of NUPENG PTD Ejigbo depot, Akeem Kelani added: 'The situation here is not okay at all. Mr Ganiyu Oyebola is using thugs and OPC to terrorise us. The man led about 16 years ago but since then, he has never participated in the activities of the Union. We renew our membership registration every year and he has never taken part since 16 years ago. We have had past Chairmen who were elected for a period of four years. We have our Constitution for election, the elected member is to serve a four year term, after that, members could vote for your re-election. When the tenure of the last administration lapsed, there was a way of conducting the election. The election date and venue were posted here but Ganiyu Oyebola denied and boycotted the election stating he wanted to rule by force which is not normal.'

'He's fond of fighting everybody, he would fight NNPC staff, Petroleum Tanker Drivers (PTD), Independent Marketers Branch (IMB), Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), NATO, we are all here, he fought all of them, he has no good name at all. We want the government to intervene in this matter not briefly but permanently because we are law abiding citizens.'

What they did 10 days ago, 16th February was bad, so the Police charged them to court, I don't know if they have perfected their bail conditions.'

A member of the NUPENG PTD, Ejigbo Unit who was injured at the fight on 16th February, Adeniran Taiwo said: 'I thank God that I am still alive today. On that fateful day, when I saw the guys, I was wondering who they were, I don't know I was one of their targets, I heard two among them say, Oyebola (10 million) asked us to kill one person, that was when I ran but I can't run very well because of my age. The boy who pursued me injured me with a broken bottle. People carried me to the police station to obtain a statement before being taken to hospital for treatment.'

Another injured member, Adeniyi Lukman said: 'Last week Monday, my boss called me to prepare for Apapa for fuel loading but I had to fetch water to put inside the engine. As I was coming with the water on my head, i started seeing some known OPC faces which I know very well, and they started throwing stones and bottles towards me. A broken bottle was smashed on my forehead, that was the last I knew before I was rushed to the hospital. The guys confessed to being sent by their boss, Oyebola (10 million) to kill anyone. We were like three or four that were injured and treated in hospital.'

The NUPENG PTD Ejigbo depot is calling on the Federal Government, the Law Court, the Nigeria Police Force, and all well-meaning Nigerians to help restore stability and harmony so that they can continue their economic activities.

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD


The turmoil that unfolded on the 23rd of February, 2026 within the ranks of the NUPENG PTD Ejigbo depot in Lagos serves as a sobering reminder that the fight for workers’ rights must never be allowed to devolve into chaos. Nigeria’s labour movement has a proud history of courageous advocacy, but when factional or agitational protests become violent, the values that unions stand for are undermined.

What transpired on that day was a dangerous departure from peaceful civic expression that PTD NUPENG is known for. A splinter group who are majorly non members of the union loyal to Alhaji Ganiyu Oyebola, known as “10Million,” a former chairman of NUPENG PTD EJIGBO staged a protest that was aimed at forcing the hands of law enforcement agencies into doing wrong, and also to undermine the Law Court and its processes. This is a travesty of justice which should not be allowed to stand.

A brief background into the Ejigbo depot impasse reveals that there is already an upcoming election to elect new executives for the labour union. However, instead of preparing for the upcoming elections, the Oyebola-led group took to violence. They attacked the real members who showed their willingness and readiness for the elections through printing and posting posters of their preferred candidate. While they were pasting the posters in and around the Ejigbo depot on the 16th of February, 2026, they were gravely attacked.

A straightforward, peaceful electioneering process quickly degenerated into physical attacks on recognized members of the union. Several individuals were brutally injured, some left in pools of blood, and rushed to hospitals.

This violent turn of events caused the Nigeria Police Force to sweep into action and arrested everyone involved in the mayhem. The Police also swiftly charged them to court in line with the laws of the land, and the case has since been before the magistrate.

Rather than allow the law to take its process, Alhaji Ganiyu Oyebola, known as “10Million,” and his splinter group took to the streets in today's protest. They also engaged civil society organizations who would not seek to understand the root of the matter before proceeding to protest. They are seeking to armtwist the magistrate and the Police to release thugs who were involved in the violence that led to the maiming of law-abiding citizens who are going about their civic duty to elect new executives for their labour union.

The conduct of the former chairman, Alhaji Ganiyu Oyebola at the protest scene is thus troubling and shocking. Upon seeing journalists, he avoided questions and refused to explain his group’s role in the violent clashes. Leadership demands courage, especially in moments of crisis. His silence in the face of serious allegations is the evasion of true leadership.

Adding to the complexity of the situation was the involvement of a civil society organization, Human Rights Monitoring Agenda (HURWA) that was engaged. A representative of the CSO stated: “We learned that two factions are clashing and one of them is on ground known and recognized as the one that has the base. Some people claimed that they were attacked, some were injured and admitted into the hospital, and they reported it at the Police station. But they are alleging that the Police appears to have been bought. It is not like the Police went to the scene; it is the people who went to the Police to report and they were reported. This is the information we gathered in our office.”

He went on to call for accountability: “Our demands are very clear. We are calling for immediate, impartial investigation into the role played by officers of the Ejigbo division and Zone D. We are calling on the leadership of Petrol Tanker Drivers to come and intervene on this matter before it degenerates into a fracas.”

If every allegation of intimidation as cited by the HURWA representative is true, will it also qualify violence and permit a staged protest that took place without the consent of the Nigeria Police Force? When actions of a group become unlawful and turn violent, they become morally unacceptable and counterproductive for the development of society.

The protest today and the previous violence have endangered the lives of fellow workers and disrupted public order. Everyone involved in the fracas must be immediately brought to justice no matter whose ox is gored. Those who were injured must get adequate medical attention for which they should not bear the cost. The Ganiyu Oyebola-led group must be made to stop its unlawful acts and wait for the judgement of the Court.

Nigeria cannot afford to let union disputes fuel societal instability.

LSSTF ES/CEO, Ogunsan Marks 100 Days In Office; Reels Out Achievements, Moves to Refurbish 30 Police Stations in Lagos

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.


The Executive Secretary/CEO of Lagos State Security Trust Fund LSSTF, Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan yesterday reel out his achievements to marked 100 days since assumption of office at the helms of the funding agency, National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP can report. Ogunsan was appointed into the office by the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Friday 31 October 2025.

In a press briefing with selected security editors which was held at the LSSTF HQ in Alausa Ikeja, Dr. Ogunsan noted that over the years, the Fund has played a strategic role in providing operational equipment, supporting infrastructure development, and facilitating capacity building for security agencies operating within the State. This feat is done by mobilising resources from corporate organisations, public institutions, and well-meaning individuals to strengthen the security architecture of Lagos. 

He disclosed his achievements so far, 'In my first 100 days in office, my immediate focus was on strengthening the financial base of the Fund through strategic fundraising and stakeholder engagement. We introduced new fundraising channels, including crowdfunding initiatives, while also intensifying engagement with private sector organisations, public institutions, and individuals who share our vision of a safer Lagos.'

'One of the major highlights of this period was the successful organisation of a high-level fundraising breakfast meeting, which brought together key public and private sector stakeholders. This engagement further reinforced the shared responsibility of security and strengthened confidence in the work of the Fund. I am pleased to report that within this period, we recorded several important achievements. We successfully revived retail donation channels to encourage broader public participation in supporting security initiatives. We introduced the LSSTF Monitoring Team to ensure proper tracking, accountability, and maintenance of assets provided for security agencies. We injected an additional 80 operational and patrol vehicles into the Lagos security space to strengthen rapid response and visibility and more is still on its way.'

'We secured a sole donor to build a permanent office complex for the Fund, which will further enhance coordination, efficiency, and service delivery. The construction of the building has commenced and it should be delivered by October this year. 

He continued: 'Within this period, we hosted a highly productive Annual Town Hall Meeting on Security, which provided an opportunity for open engagement between security agencies, government, and the public. Deserving and dedicated security officers were recognised and honoured through awards, in appreciation of their sacrifice and commitment to keeping Lagos safe, at the Town Hall Meeting. In addition, we successfully held a very impactful breakfast meeting involving Lagos public and private sector stakeholders hosted by Mr. Governor, which further strengthened the collaboration and support for security funding initiatives. We are also proud to report that we secured donations of vehicles from automobile manufacturers operating within Lagos. Furthermore, we extended our support to tertiary institutions across the State through the donation of security vehicles and equipment to improve campus safety.'

Understanding the importance of human capacity in security management, we supported advocacy campaigns to encourage Lagos youths to join the Police and other security agencies, thereby supporting manpower development and youth employment.

During this period, we also maintained frequent and robust engagements with all security agencies operating within Lagos State to ensure alignment, responsiveness, and effective deployment of resources.

Importantly, we have embarked on statewide repairs and restoration of abandoned Armoured Personnel Carriers, returning them to operational use. 

On the plans moving forward, the LSSTF boss, Dr. Ogunsan stated: 'In the next 100 days, the Fund will deepen its operational impact across several key priority areas. We will commence statewide training programmes for security agencies, ensuring that officers across the State are equipped with modern knowledge, tactical skills, and professional standards required for effective service delivery. We will also procure more security equipment and operational accessories to further strengthen the capacity of security agencies to respond swiftly and effectively to emerging threats.'

'The Fund will work towards signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the Nigerian Air Force and the Nigeria Police Airwing to support aerial surveillance across Lagos State, this will include the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVS) as known as drones, which will significantly enhance intelligence gathering, rapid response capability, and coordinated security operations. In addition, the Fund will roll out statewide public enlightenment and sensitisation campaigns against crime and other social vices, aimed at strengthening community participation in security and promoting responsible civic behaviour. We will also collaborate with the Police and the Ministry of Basic Education in Lagos State to establish Safer School Patrol initiatives, designed to improve security presence around schools and enhance the safety of students, teachers, and school communities.'

Ogunsan harped on financial and material support of Lagosians for LSSTF to achieve its goals. 'The Fund will intensify efforts to bring more Lagosians into the security funding net, encouraging wider public participation and ownership of security support initiatives across the State. We believe that these strategic actions will significantly improve professionalism, enhance service delivery, strengthen operational effectiveness, and ensure better management and administration of assets provided by the Fund.'

'In today’s rapidly evolving security environment, it has become even more important to strengthen partnerships, embrace innovation, and ensure that our security agencies are properly equipped and supported. We are also engaging some key stakeholders to partner with us towards the renovation of dilapidated and damaged Police stations, helping to improve working conditions for officers and service delivery to the public.'

He concluded by expressing gratitude to Gov. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, the LSSTF Board of Trustees, corporate partners, security agencies, all the organisations and individuals that have made donations to the Fund within the last 100 days, and restated his commitment to best practices, 'The Lagos State Security Trust Fund remains fully committed to transparency, accountability, innovation, and strong partnerships. We will continue to work closely with the Lagos State Government, security agencies, the private sector, and the good people of Lagos to build a safer, more secure, and more resilient State.'

Psalms 150:6 NIV
[6] Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.


Governor Ademola Adeleke has promised to dualise the road from Ikire junction to Apomu and Ikoyi.

He made the promise when he graced the occasion of Apomu Day celebrations held at ADC Grammar School, Apomu.
He said the road project will improve economic growth.

The Governor said his administration is committed to inclusive development across the state. He also emphasised that rural and semi urban remain central in his government's development agenda.

Senator Lere Oyewumi, Deputy Minority Leader at the Senate, representing Osun West Senatorial District, in his speech said governance is about development. He promised to support the development of Apomu as one of the towns in his Senatorial district.

Dr Jide Babalola, President General of Apomu Descendants Union National and Diaspora, said this year's Apomu Day is beyond celebration. It is intentionally focused on development, sustainability and shared- ownership. "It is with this purpose that we are unveiling #250million Community Endowment Fund aimed at supporting our priority projects, which include completion of our ultra modern Palace, Youth Empowerment and community infrastructures.In support of today's launching, on behalf of the 131 elite members of ADU,we collectively donate #25million."

Deepens Commitment to Public Safety and Shared Prosperity

Psalms 150:6 NIV
[6] Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.

In a landmark gesture underscoring its enduring commitment to national development and public safety, Globacom has donated ₦1 billion to the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), to strengthen security infrastructure across Nigeria’s commercial capital. The contribution stands among the most significant private-sector interventions from the telecommunications industry to the Fund in recent years and reinforces Globacom’s position as a responsible and patriotic corporate citizen.

The donation follows Globacom’s participation in the LSSTF-organised Private Sector Breakfast Meeting with CEOs, hosted by the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Friday, January 30, 2026. The high-level forum emphasised deeper collaboration between government and business on security, innovation and economic resilience—an agenda Globacom has consistently supported through sustained social investment.

Expressing appreciation, the Executive Secretary/CEO of the Fund, Dr Ayo Ogunsan, described Globacom’s gesture as “a powerful demonstration of corporate citizenship and a strategic investment in the stability of Lagos State.” He noted that the LSSTF was established to bridge funding gaps in security infrastructure and therefore relies heavily on voluntary contributions from corporate bodies and well-meaning partners.

According to Dr Ogunsan, the ₦1 billion donation will significantly enhance the Fund’s capacity to address critical priorities for 2026, including multipurpose security helicopters and drones, Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs), water cannons, digital communication equipment and Smart CCTV systems.
These assets are central to proactive policing, rapid response and intelligence-led operations across the state.

Reacting to the development, a senior executive of Globacom described the donation as an extension of the company’s long-standing belief in Nigeria’s future. “At Globacom, we see security not as a government burden alone, but as a shared responsibility. When people feel safe, enterprise grows, creativity flourishes and hope becomes practical,” the official said. “Our support for the LSSTF is about protecting the everyday dreams of millions of Lagosians.”

Globacom’s intervention is consistent with its long-standing approach to social responsibility—practical, timely and aligned with national priorities. Over the past decade, the company has supported relief efforts for flood-affected communities, assisted displaced persons, advanced youth skills through structured training programmes, and invested in education, culture and digital inclusion. These initiatives reflect a philosophy of giving that privileges institutional impact over personal acclaim.

Dr Ogunsan also urged Lagosians to support organisations that invest in the safety and development of the state. “When companies step forward to secure our environment, residents should reciprocate by patronising them. Their support directly impacts the protection of lives, property and economic activity,” he said.

By strengthening the LSSTF, Globacom is investing directly in the conditions that enable commerce to thrive—safety, confidence and stability. With this support, the Fund is poised to scale its interventions further, reinforcing Lagos State’s position as the country’s safest and most vibrant commercial hub.
As Lagos continues its journey toward global competitiveness, Globacom’s partnership with the LSSTF stands as a model of how the private sector can help secure shared prosperity.

In an industry built on signals, Globacom’s clearest signal remains trust—earned through consistency, conscience and action.

Security Boost for Lagos as Mikano Motors Hands Over Max Pickup Fleet to LSSTF

Psalms 150:6 NIV
[6] Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.


In a decisive demonstration of corporate responsibility and deep-rooted commitment to Lagos State’s security advancement, Mikano Motors has donated a fleet of its Max pickup vehicles to the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), reinforcing the state’s belief in private-sector partnership to strengthen public safety and operational response capabilities.

The official handover took place at the Mikano Motors showroom in Victoria Island, Lagos, where senior executives of Mikano International Ltd. led by the Chairman/CEO, Mr. Mofid Karameh warmly received top officials of LSSTF led by the Executive Secretary/CEO, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan in a high profile reception where the officials led them on a tour of the showroom.

The Chairman/CEO, Mikano International Ltd, Mofid Karameh lauded the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu for his huge commitment and investment into safety and security which is transforming into prosperity in Lagos. He stressed that the Governor's proactive engagement at the recent Private Sector Breakfast Meeting provided a strategic platform for private sector leaders to know the immense efforts that the government is putting into security. He assured that the company will continue to give towards strengthening the Lagos security apparatus.

In a gesture of appreciation, the Executive Secretary/CEO, LSSTF, Dr. Ogunsan presented the LSSTF Distinguished Honor Award to Mikano International Ltd for the donation. The award was accepted by the Founder and Chairman/CEO, Mr. Karameh.

The National Operations Manager for Mikano, Syam Abdulkadir, who conducted the official handover highlighted that the donation of the vehicles reflects the company’s long-standing commitment to the safety and well-being of residents. “We are here today at the Mikano Motors showroom in VI Lagos to proudly show our support for the LSSTF by donating our Max pickup vehicles. This is a sign of our support to ensure the safety of Lagosians,” he declared.

He noted that Mikano’s decades-long presence in Nigeria underscores its dedication to nation-building. “We have been in Nigeria for the past three decades. This is a show of commitment that we are here to help build our economy and promote security,” he said.

Offering gratitude on behalf of the company, he added: “I thank the Governor of Lagos State, Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and the CEO of LSSTF, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan. This is a proud moment and we hope to do more.”

Receiving the vehicles, Dr. Ayo Ogunsan, Executive Secretary/CEO of LSSTF, praised Mikano for taking the lead in responding to the state’s call for enhanced private-sector involvement. “This is a proud moment for Lagos. This is a proud moment for Mikano and for our organization, LSSTF,” he said.

Ogunsan recalled that the Governor’s recent engagement with CEOs at the LSSTF Breakfast Meeting laid the foundation for this gesture. “This entire process started with the Chief Fundraiser, Gov. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, who mobilized everyone at the breakfast meeting to make donations to the LSSTF,” he explained.

He emphasized that support to the Fund goes beyond monetary gifts. “We made it clear that we are not only taking cash gifts but also items, equipment, and other things that our private sector has to offer,” he said.

Commending Mikano’s leadership, he added: “We are proud of Mr. Mofid Karameh for showing example and being the first to respond to the call. We are proud of Mikano.”

Ogunsan also called on Nigerians to support businesses that contribute to public safety. “As you support LSSTF, remember to support those who support LSSTF, patronize them, buy their products, and we have no doubt that they will do more,” he urged.

He concluded with an assurance of responsible use: “Thank you so much for this kind gesture. We promise that we will make judicious use of the vehicles.”


Thank You Jesus

May the LORD Shepherd HIS people. Zero fear of GOD.

2 Timothy 3:1-4 KJV
[1] This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

Behind the evolving admirable Lagos, is an intentional governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who leaves nothing to chance. Oluwaseyi Adedotun writes.

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.


When Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu assumed leadership of Lagos State, he inherited a sprawling urban engine with immense potential and equally complex challenges.

Yet, what has distinguished his leadership is not merely the scale of projects delivered, but the intentionality behind them – the disciplined alignment of vision, policy and institutions toward a deliberate, integrated and sustainable transformation of Lagos.

From his first day in office, Sanwo-Olu understood that Lagos offers no grace period. Governance demanded real-time problem-solving, visible leadership and strategic foresight.

This lived experience shaped a philosophy that blends hands-on action with long-term planning. It also ensures that policies are not isolated interventions but interconnected levers of development.

Under Sanwo-Olu, intentional governance means that no policy stands alone. It also moves the governance from the pedestal of reactionary to proactiveness.

Transformation efforts in social service delivery like Transport, Education, Art, Culture and Entertainment, Health, Agriculture, Housing, Human Capital and Security and Enterprise Development, are deliberately designed to reinforce one another.

Sustainability is embedded into the architecture of governance, so that projects, institutions and reforms endure beyond electoral cycles.

This philosophy is expressed through the administration’s strategic blueprint – the THEMES Agenda, which integrates Transportation and Traffic Management, Health and Environment, Education and Technology, Making Lagos a 21st-Century Economy, Entertainment and Tourism, and Security and Governance, expanded into THEMES+ to embed social inclusion, gender equity and youth empowerment.

Through this framework, Lagos is governed as a living system, where infrastructure powers commerce, education fuels enterprise, culture propels tourism, health safeguards productivity, housing anchors dignity, and governance ensures sustainability.

Specifically, Transportation, the first pillar of THEMES, best illustrates intentional governance in action. Lagos has moved from reactive traffic management to a strategic, multimodal mobility ecosystem integrating rail, road and waterways into a single economic enabler.

The Blue Line from Marina to Mile 2 and the Red Line from Ebute Metta to Badagry have carried millions of commuters, slashing travel times, easing congestion and unlocking new commercial corridors.

It is judicious to conclude that planning for the Green Line and the Fourth Mainland Bridge is not simply about moving vehicles; it is about deliberately reshaping Lagos’ economic geography, reducing logistics costs and integrating dense mainland communities with island business districts.

Sanwo-Olu’s intentionality is also in display in transport investments, which are not incidental, as road infrastructure is intentionally designed to feed the rail system and open up communities that were hitherto disconnected.

The Opebi-Odo-Iyaláro-Ojota Link Road and Bridge, popularly known as the Opebi-Mende Link Road, also exemplifies this intentionality. It created a critical east-west connector, where none existed, linking residential and commercial districts, shortening travel times and unlocking new economic activity.

Across the state, road reconstruction in Alimosho, Ifako-Ijaiye, Amuwo-Odofin and Badagry axis deliberately complement rail investments.

Same as the rail-grade separation bridges in Ebute Metta, Yaba, Mushin, Oshodi, Ikeja and Agege. They were embedded in a design that saves lives, unlocks micro-economic hubs and stimulates inclusive commerce.

In Sanwo-Olu’s Lagos, with the intentionality deployed in its design, transport is not just a civic service; it is a strategic tool for productivity, trade and national competitiveness, with link roads ensuring that connectivity is universal, and not exclusive.

Health policy formulation and execution reflects the same intentional integration. The revitalisation of health infrastructure, including the historic Massey Street Children’s Hospital, demonstrates a deliberate commitment to safeguarding the most vulnerable and at the same time strengthening Lagos’ human capital pipeline.

Massey is not merely a hospital project; first of its kind in size, it is a strategic investment in child survival, maternal health and long-term productivity.

Alongside the Lagos State Health Insurance Scheme, “Ilera Eko”, health insurance expansion and modernised general hospitals, Lagos is building a health system that protects livelihoods, reduces catastrophic health spending and anchors economic growth on a healthy population.

Education has also been intentionally reshaped to produce economically empowered citizens, not just certificate holders.

The reintroduction of the Comprehensive Secondary School model and the expansion of technical and vocational education through the Lagos State Technical and Vocational Education Board, reflect a deliberate shift toward skills-based learning.

By establishing comprehensive schools where students graduate with industry-relevant competencies, Lagos is deepening its MSME, manufacturing, technology and creative ecosystems.

The intentional approach of Sanwo-Olu to governance is packaging education as economic policy – a multiplier that converts classrooms into engines of national productivity.

In arts, culture and entertainment, the global recognition as one of six Arts destinations for 2026, by Artsy is not an accident. Cultural renaissance, creatives and entertainment sit at the heart of Sanwo-Olu’s economic strategy.

From Day One, the creative sector was positioned as a driver of jobs, tourism, global branding and urban identity.

Several Festivals of Arts, Culture and Entertainment, instituted are well calculated initiatives by the administration, now yielding results in the form of job creation, revenue generation and promotion of commerce and trade among others.

Cultural Festivals such as Adamu Orisa (Eyo) and the Door of Return, etc, are tools targeted at revitalised cultural institutions and offer deliberate support for entertainment and tourism.

Through deliberate effort at preserving the cultural identity of Lagos, Sanwo-Olu’s policies have transformed Lagos into a year-round destination.

In 2026, Lagos will take its place on the world’s art itinerary following its naming by Artsy as one of the top global art destinations, alongside Venice, Sydney and Doha.

With ART X Lagos, the Lagos Biennial and the permanent home of the Àkéte Collection and Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, this global recognition is not accidental; it is the product of intentional governance, a model that treats culture as economic infrastructure and identity as a strategic asset.

In agriculture and food security, Sanwo-Olu’s intentionality is equally evident. The Produce for Lagos agreement with Niger State is a regional economic strategy, not a standalone project.

With a ₦500 billion agro-investment window, Lagos is poised to effectively sustain security, affordability and availability, while also empowering farmers beyond its borders.

Multi-level food hubs now create jobs across the edibles value chain, proving that Lagos’s policies are locally relevant yet nationally transformative.

Housing is treated as both economic and social infrastructure. With over 12,000 housing units delivered across the state, the administration has intentionally linked shelter to productivity, reducing commuting burdens, stabilising communities and enabling inclusive growth.

These are not isolated estates. They are integrated developments with premeditation connection to transport, services and jobs. Sanwo-Olu’s intentional manner of governance is reinforcing the fact that housing is central to achieving the Greater Lagos ambition of a 21 Century Mega City.

Likewise, Security under Sanwo-Olu is pursued as an economic enabler. Through institutional coordination, technology deployment and community partnership, Lagos has strengthened safety and public confidence.

Notably, the state has recorded only a single case of bank robbery in the last seven years, a powerful indicator of deliberate, intelligence-driven security governance.

Through the instrumentality of the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSSTF), the Sanwo-Olu-led administration has sustained its pragmatic approach to security, by providing logistic and motivational support to all security outfits in the state.

Sanwo-Olu’s policies are the type that adopt responsibility, not because it is under its constitutional obligations, but because it prioritises humanity over administrative bottlenecks and political correctness.

Lagos State Government, through the Fund has donated hundreds of vehicles, boots and other logistics to the Nigeria Police Force, the Nigeria Security Civil Defence Corp (NSCDC), the Military and other Federal Government-owned security organisations.

The Rapid Response Squad (RRS), a police regiment dedicated to security requests from members of the public, and the Special Environmental Task Force, a mixed uniform squad ensures enforcement of environmental laws.

Social safety is equally intentional. Programmes such as EkoCares demonstrate that inclusion is not charity but a strategy to stabilise society, protect demand and sustain growth.

Through skills acquisition centres, enterprise development programmes and targeted financial support, Lagos has intentionally deepened its MSME ecosystem, especially for women and youth.

In the 2024/2025 cohort alone, 5,309 graduates completed training across 211 skills acquisition centres, while more than 30,000 Lagosians have been trained over the past five to six years.

These are productivity interventions that reduce unemployment, strengthen social stability and expand Nigeria’s economic base.

Sanwo-Olu’s leadership is defined by visibility and service. His administration measures success not by policy documents but by lived realities, resilience, opportunity and the daily experience of Lagosians.

He engages communities, adapts constantly to the city’s complexity and leads with purpose. When asked how he wishes to be remembered, he says simply: “As a leader who gave his all, helped people advance personally and economically, and left Lagos better than he met it.”

Under his stewardship, Lagos has emerged as a global economic heavyweight, with a city GDP estimated at US$259.75 billion (PPP), placing it among Africa’s largest urban economies.

National commendations, including from President Bola Tinubu for landmark rail and infrastructure projects, affirm that Lagos’ trajectory contributes meaningfully to Nigeria’s broader development goals.

What defines Sanwo-Olu’s Lagos is intentional governance in action: integration, sustainability and strategic foresight.

From multimodal transport that fuels commerce, to skills-driven education that creates tomorrow’s workforce; from regional agriculture partnerships that secure food systems, to culturally anchored growth that positions Lagos on the global stage; from health infrastructure that protects human capital, to housing that restores dignity; and from security that stabilises society, to enterprise support that expands opportunity, policies are vehicles for transformation.

On Digital Trading And Forex-Related Financial Crime Investigation 

Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olukayode Adeolu Egbetokun, today Monday declared open a three-day Strategic Training Programme on Digital Trading Systems and Forex-Related Financial Crime Investigation for officers of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF). This is as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen the Force’s capacity to combat modern financial and cyber-enabled crimes. The programme, which runs from Monday, January 12 to Wednesday, January 14, 2026, is held at Best Western (BWC) Hotels, Victoria Island, Lagos, National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP can report.

In his keynote address, IGP Egbetokun described the training as a “critical step in strengthening Nigeria’s response to modern financial crime.” He was ably represented at the opening ceremony by the Commissioner of Police, Department of Training and Development, CP Eloho E. Okpoziakpo.

The IGP noted that digital trading platforms, online forex markets, and cross-border transactions are increasingly being exploited for fraud, illicit financial flows, and organised criminal activities, therefore, “building advanced investigative capacity in this area is essential to safeguarding Nigeria’s financial system, protecting investors, disrupting criminal financing networks, and reinforcing national security.”

According to the IGP, the programme is designed to equip participating officers with a comprehensive understanding of the digital financial ecosystem, including the structure and operations of digital trading and foreign exchange markets, legitimate trading practices, emerging fraud typologies, and investigative red flags. This, he noted, is vital for distinguishing lawful investment activities from fraudulent schemes and improving investigative accuracy and professionalism. He urged participants to approach the training with discipline and professionalism, stressing that the knowledge gained must be shared within their respective units to strengthen investigations and enhance public trust.

“Financial crime is a major enabler of violent crimes such as terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, arms trafficking, and transnational organised crime,” IGP Egbetokun emphasised. “Strengthening our capacity to investigate digital trading abuses and forex-related fraud is a direct investment in national security and public safety.”

Egbetokun expressed the profound appreciation of the Nigeria Police Force to HF Markets Nigeria Limited (HFM) and its partners for their strategic support, describing the collaboration as a model of effective public–private partnership in line with United Nations principles, Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards, and Nigeria’s Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) obligations.

“As financial and cyber-enabled crimes continue to transcend national borders, partnerships of this nature strengthen investigative capacity, enhance regulatory compliance, and support financial intelligence efforts,” he said, adding that such engagements promote global financial integrity, economic stability, and investor confidence," he stated.

Earlier in his welcome address, the Managing Director of HF Markets Nigeria Ltd, Mr. Ope Abiola, said the training was conceived to provide investigators with clarity on how digital trading and forex transactions work, distinguish legitimate market losses from criminal deception, and define responsibilities within the financial ecosystem. He stressed that the programme was structured to be neutral, evidence-based, and investigative in tone.

A goodwill message was also delivered by financial markets analyst, Mr. Heritage Adisa, who commended the Nigeria Police Force for partnering with the private sector to deepen understanding of digital financial markets. He noted that the ability to separate genuine market activity from criminal conduct is critical for effective investigations and investor protection.

The training draws participants from key formations of the Nigeria Police Force, including the Cybercrime Unit, Anti-Fraud Section, INTERPOL National Central Bureau, Anti-Money Laundering Units, Police Special Fraud Unit, Forensic Section, State and Zonal Criminal Investigation Departments, as well as other specialised investigative units. Officers involved in counter-terrorism financing, kidnapping and ransom payment tracking are also participating, reflecting the link between financial crimes and violent criminal activities.

Senior officers and special guests at the human capacity training includes; Deputy Commissioner of Police, Zonal CID, Zone 2, DCP Fakeye Olubunmi; Deputy Commissioner of Police, DC General Investigation, Force CID, Alagbon, DCP Odubona O. Oludotun; Deputy Commissioner of Police, DC Anti-Fraud, Force CID, Alagbon, DCP Olayinka Ajeigbe; Assistant Commissioner of Police, Police Special Fraud Unit, ACP Uduak Edet; Compliance Officer, HF Markets, Mrs. Victoria Ogunbiyi; Business Development Manager, HF Markets, Mr. Olumide Oderinde and Marketing Manager, HF Markets, Mrs. Oluwakemi Adebiyi among others.
