Politics › Historic First: Ikeja LG Declares July 10 As Human Duties Day by Godspowerpro(op): 9:22am On Sep 28
As Idara Michael Leads Landmark Partnership,

Ikeja has set the pace. And the nation is watching


By Juliet Oluchi

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



History was made in Ikeja, and it was made through purposeful leadership. In a landmark ceremony led by Ambassador Idara Michael, Executive Vice President of JCI Nigeria, the Ikeja Local Government officially declared July 10th as Human Duties Day—the first feat of its kind in the history of JCI Nigeria.

The Executive Chairman, Comrade Akeem Dauda, signed a four-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with JCI, formally cementing a partnership that will ignite civic responsibility and leadership development at the grassroots. In a further demonstration of commitment, the Chairman was decorated as a Human Duties Ambassador, a symbolic and strategic recognition of his dedication to the cause.

"This is not just a signing—it is a declaration," Ambassador Idara Michael stated. "Today, Ikeja becomes a beacon of civic responsibility. This partnership will awaken a generation to the truth that rights and duties are inseparable, and that leadership is measured by service. We are building a legacy that will outlive us all."

The groundbreaking partnership will power civic responsibility and leadership programs aligned with the 7 Duties of Leaders, the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the JCI Action Framework—embedding purpose-driven development directly into the fabric of the Ikeja community.

In attendance also was Olayinka Adenekan, Southwest Director of Human Duties, and Adenuga Ayotunde, Ikeja LG Supervisor for Youth & Sports, alongside all distinguished Southwest Area Team Members present, whose efforts were instrumental in bringing this vision to life.

For JCI Nigeria, this is more than a milestone—it is a movement. A powerful step forward in the mission to foster world peace and prosperity, and a resounding affirmation that when leadership is intentional, communities transform.

Ambassador Idara Michael's leadership—steering this historic declaration, securing a four-year institutional partnership, and championing the cause of human duties—cements her legacy as a pioneer, a bridge-builder, and a leader who transforms vision into lasting institutional impact. Ikeja has set the pace. And the nation is watching.

Christianity Etc › When GOD Orders, Even The Devil Obeys by Godspowerpro(op): 7:02am On Sep 27
Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
GODSPOWERPROJECT


A very poor woman called a radio station asking for help from GOD. A non-believer who was also listening to this radio program decided to make fun of the woman. He got the woman's address from the radio station and told his secretary to carry a large amount of foodstuff to the woman.

However, he gave the following instruction, "When the woman asks who sent the food, tell her that it's from the devil.''

When the secretary arrived at the woman's house, the woman was happy and grateful for the help received. She started putting the food packets inside her small house. The secretary then asked her, ''Don't you want to know who sent the food?''

The woman replied, ''No, I don't care because when GOD orders, even the DEVIL obeys."

If you are a young person that really wants to grow in life, you need to be careful about the type of church you attend, and the kind of messages you listen to.

Your twenties and thirties are formative years. The church you plant yourself in during this season will shape your faith, your thinking, and your future.

Here are five types of churches every young person should run from.

1. The Church That Calls Every Problem a Spiritual Attack

In this church, nothing is ever just normal.
You failed an exam? It's the spirit of failure. You can't find a job? Demons in your village are fighting you. You are sick? It's a generational curse. Your relationship ended? Someone is doing juju against you.
Instead of analyzing what you are doing wrong and adjusting, you are fighting an enemy in the spirit realm while the real problem sits in your habits, your choices, your preparation.

You start believing God has abandoned you to attackers. Every problem becomes proof that you are under siege. You live in constant fear, seeing demons in every disappointment.

Yes, spiritual warfare is real, it is so real but so is personal responsibility. Wisdom knows when to pray and when to study. When to fast and when to see a doctor. A church that never teaches you the difference is setting you up for a life of passivity and paranoia.


2. The Church That Says You Can 'Only' Be Blessed 'Only' Through Sowing Seeds

Need a job? Sow a seed. Need a child? Sow a seed. Need academic excellence? Sow a seed. Need financial breakthrough? Sow a seed.

Every problem has one solution: give money.

This is not faith. This is a ponzi scheme with Bible verses attached.

GOD does not run a transaction business. Sowing should come from a heart that wants to expand God's kingdom not from a desperate person trying to bribe heaven into answering a prayer.

If you are a young person in this church, you will be convinced to pour your small salary into seeds for breakthrough instead of investing in your skills, your education, or your savings. You will give money you don't have, believing that your next gift is the one that finally unlocks your miracle.

God gives seed to the sower. He is the source not your return on investment. A relationship with GOD is not a business deal. Any church that treats it like one is using you and will keep you small.


3. Any Church That Makes You Feel Rich People Are Bad People

Some churches preach in a way that makes you believe every wealthy person is either an occultist, a criminal, or someone who sold their soul to the devil. Money becomes automatically associated with evil. If you have money, you must have done something wrong. If you are poor, you are automatically righteous.

This teaching sounds spiritual. It sounds like it is defending GOD and standing for holiness. But it is actually dangerous, especially for a young person who is trying to build a future.

Why This Is Dangerous
'You cannot become what you despise'.

If deep down you believe that rich people are wicked, you will unconsciously sabotage yourself every time you start making progress. You will feel guilty for wanting more. You will be afraid that success will turn you into the kind of person you have been taught to hate. So you stay small because you have been programmed to fear wealth.

You cannot pray for what you condemn.

You cannot kneel down and ask GOD for financial breakthrough while in your heart you believe that those who have money are criminals. That is a divided heart. GOD is not confused. You are asking for something you have already judged as evil. That prayer will not work because your own belief system is fighting against it.

Many wealthy people got there through:

· Discipline and delayed gratification
· Years of learning and skill development
· Smart investments and financial literacy
· Solving problems that people are willing to pay for
· Building businesses that employ others
· Consistent hard work over many years



4. Churches That Make You Always Pray for a Destiny Helper

Some churches teach that your success in life depends on one mysterious person a "destiny helper" who will suddenly appear and change your life. So every service, every prayer meeting, every vigil, you are crying out for a destiny helper to locate you.

"Father, connect me to my destiny helper."
"Lord, send me a helper from above."
"Any man or woman that will change my story, let them find me this month
."

Why this is dangerous is that it replaces personal responsibility with passive waiting.

Instead of learning a skill, you are waiting for a helper. Instead of applying for jobs, you are waiting for a helper. Instead of saving and investing, you are waiting for a helper. Instead of building your network and adding value to people, you are waiting for a helper.

You become spiritually lazy but emotionally convinced that you are doing the right thing. You are not lazy you are praying. But prayer without works is dead (James 2:26).

While you are praying for miracle alert, miracle money, miracle job, miracle husband, miracle wife, miracle visa, there are people your age learning:

· How to budget and save
· How to invest
· How to build a business
· How to negotiate a salary
· How to develop marketable skills
· How to network effectively
· How to manage their time and resources



5. The Church That Demands Unquestioning Obedience to Leadership

In this church, the pastor is GOD'S only mouthpiece for your life.
You are told not to question. Not to think too hard. Not to leave because leaving is rebellion against GOD HIMSELF. They control who you date, what career you pursue, where you live, what you wear. Your personal convictions are dismissed if they don't align with the pastor's.

The pastor becomes a mediator between you and God. You can't hear God for yourself anymore you need to go through him.

As a young person, this stunts your growth. You never learn to hear GOD'S voice for yourself. You never develop discernment. You become dependent on a human being instead of the Holy Spirit.
Any church that punishes questions is afraid of what you will find. Any leader who can't be questioned shouldn't be followed.

Born on the 27th of September, 1954 in Osogbo, Bishop David Oyedepo hails from Omu-Aran in Kwara state. His biography is available on Wikipedia, hence no reason to republish.

Especially noteworthy is how childhood with his grandmother instilled the love for the things of GOD in him and sparked the origins of a Father of Faith.

Having given his life to Christ at the age of 15, Bishop David Oyedepo through the wisdom of GOD, has been able to exemplify the spiritual content of the Bible, which he constantly describes as the manual of life. 

He blends Biblical teachings with personal lifestyle, righteous living and absolute faith in GOD, and as a result, his entire life, works and results have been testimonies of divine intervention in all ramifications!

A trained Architect, Papa, as he is fondly called by all, is a walking encyclopaedia of Biblical knowledge who navigates scriptures effectively. Papa is also an accomplished author with many bestsellers to his credit. 

With a PhD in Human Development from the [b]Honolulu University, Bishop Oyedepo[/b] is a lifetime evangelist, soul-winner, accomplished academic and world-class education entrepreneur.

Blessed with the loving support of his wife and partner, Pastor Mrs. Faith Oyedepo, (affectionately known as 'Mama''), both of them are parents to great offspring including David Jnr, Isaac, Joy and Love, and together, their family has since grown to include more grandchildren.

The central theme of Bishop David Oyedepo's teachings mainly revolve around Salvation, Faith, Wisdom, The Supernatural, Prayers, Divine Health and Word Study. 

At 72, Papa remains a living Oracle of GOD, whose influence cuts across all spheres of life.

Celebrities › Joseph Ojukwu At 100: A Century Of Medicine And Service by Godspowerpro(op):
Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
GODSPOWERPROJECT


As Joseph Okwuabudike Ojukwu, MFR, clocks 100 years on September 26, 2026, his life stands as a remarkable record of medicine, public service, family devotion, business responsibility and quiet, enduring leadership.

Born on September 26, 1926, at Akamili, Umudim, Nnewi, Joseph is the eldest child and son of the late Sir Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu of Umudim, Nnewi, and Ogbenyeanu Janet Malize of Ukpor.

His early years were shaped partly by Lagos, where the family later resided at 3, Okoya Street, Lagos. He received his early education on Lagos Island before proceeding to King’s College, Lagos, one of the country’s foremost secondary schools.

At King’s College, Joseph distinguished himself academically and in leadership. He was in Class Six and served as Head Boy in the year his younger brother, Emeka, and their cousin, Emmanuel, joined the school in Class One. 
Among those who entered the school alongside them were Alex Ekwueme and others who later become a prominent Nigerian.

From King’s College, Joseph proceeded to Cambridge University and subsequently Guy’s Hospital, London, where he qualified as a medical doctor. He later specialised in surgery, obtaining a Master of Surgery degree after becoming a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (FRCS).

His professional career took him through some of Nigeria’s important medical institutions. He worked for a period at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, before becoming a Consultant Surgeon at the General Hospital, Lagos.

With the outbreak of the civil disturbances, the Ojukwu family moved to the East. Joseph continued his medical service, working at the Specialist Hospital, Enugu; Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Umuahia; and Emekuku Catholic Hospital.

Following the civil war, the Enugu Specialist Hospital became the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), where Joseph continued his distinguished medical career.

It was during his years of service in the medical profession that he became affectionately known as “Pa Ojukwu.”
The name reflected not only his seniority but also the respect and affection he earned from colleagues, patients and those who encountered him.

He was highly regarded for his competence, devotion, selflessness and humility. He was also regarded as totally incorruptible, maintaining a reputation for professional integrity throughout his career. He was honoured with “Chimelumdibia Nnewi” 20 years ago.

A Clinical Professor of Surgery, Joseph eventually retired from active service in 1987. His contribution to medicine and public service had already earned him national recognition. In 1983, he was conferred with the national honour of Member of the Order of the Federal Republic (MFR) by the Federal Government under President Shehu Shagari.

Family and Marriage
Beyond medicine, Joseph Ojukwu’s life has been deeply rooted in family.
In December 1957, he married Maria Ukamaka Aghaji at St. Michael’s Church, Umudim, Nnewi. The wedding was officiated by the late Bishop Anyogu, a friend of Joseph’s father, Sir Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu.

The marriage was blessed with six children: Ogonna, a lawyer; Ike, an obstetrician and gynaecologist; Chukwudi, a surgeon; Ukonwa, a doctor of optometry; Nnanna, a civil engineer; and Chizoba, an accountant.
The family has since grown to include many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Maria, who was also called Ifeoma, was described as a totally devoted, protective and wonderful wife. Sadly, she died in 2006, only a year before the couple would have celebrated their golden wedding anniversary.

For Joseph, family remained central to his life. He has been remembered as a simple, humble, honest, hardworking and loving husband and father.

His younger half-brother, Hyacinth, remained throughout his life a loving, loyal and totally devoted brother.

Joseph’s mother, after separating from his father, remarried and had two children, Priscilla and Hyacinth. Priscilla sadly died in her teenage years, while Hyacinth later became a businessman.

A Life Beyond Medicine
Although medicine defined much of his professional life, Joseph Ojukwu’s responsibilities extended beyond the hospital.
He is the eldest child and son of the late Sir Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu and was the only member of the immediate family appointed as an Executor of his father’s will. He remains the sole surviving Executor of the estate.

His association with Ojukwu Transport Limited also stretches back decades. He has been a Director of the company since 1952 and currently serves as its Chairman.
The responsibility places him within the continuing history of one of the prominent business legacies associated with his father.

Yet, despite his professional accomplishments, national honour and family responsibilities, Joseph has remained known for his simplicity and humility.

He enjoys working to help his patients, gardening and peace. These interests reflect a personality that has generally been associated with quiet service rather than public display.

Faith, Resilience and Legacy
Joseph Okwuabudike Ojukwu
is a devoted Catholic whose faith has remained an important part of his life.
In his later years, he has had challenges with glaucoma. Despite this, his intellect remains sharp, a quality that has continued to define the centenarian who spent decades in medicine, surgery, business and family life.

His story is therefore not simply that of a medical doctor who rose to become a Consultant Surgeon and Clinical Professor of Surgery. It is also the story of a man who carried significant family responsibilities, maintained a long association with his father’s business legacy, served as Executor of a major family estate, raised six children with his late wife and remained connected to his community.

At 100, Joseph Okwuabudike Ojukwu’s life brings together several chapters of Nigeria’s history — from colonial-era education and the formative years of King’s College, through medical training in Britain and service in hospitals across Nigeria, the disruption of the civil war, the development of post-war medical institutions, and decades of professional and family service.

His centenary is consequently more than a birthday milestone. It is a celebration of a century marked by medicine, integrity, family, faith, service and responsibility.
Joseph Okwuabudike Ojukwu has left a trail defined less by noise than by service.
At 100, the surgeon affectionately called “Pa Ojukwu” remains a living link between generations, a physician, family man, businessman, Catholic, community figure and custodian of a significant family legacy

Crime › Lagos Command Disciplines Osumah Frank, Inspector Identified In Viral Video by Godspowerpro(op): 11:02pm On Sep 25
Reaffirms Commitment to Professionalism

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



The Lagos State Police Command has identified the Police inspector featured in a viral video making inappropriate remarks while travelling in public transport and has commenced disciplinary proceedings against him. The Command identified the officer as Inspector Osumah Frank, stressing that the remarks attributed to him were made in his personal capacity and did not represent the official position, views or disposition of either the Lagos Police Command or the Nigeria Police Force.

In a press statement e-signed and released to the National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP today Friday, September 25, 2026, by the Lagos PPRO, SP Abimbola Adebisi, said the action was consistent with the Command’s commitment to transparency, accountability and professional policing. According to the statement, the disciplinary process was being conducted in accordance with established regulations of the Nigeria Police Force. The Command said the incident reinforced the importance of ensuring that Police personnel conduct themselves appropriately, particularly when appearing in public, wearing the uniform of the Force.

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Tijani Fatai, reiterated that every Police officer was expected to uphold professionalism, civility, discipline and respect for members of the public at all times. The Commissioner stressed that wearing the Police uniform carried a responsibility to protect the dignity and integrity associated with the institution. “All personnel are expected to maintain professionalism, civility, discipline and respect for members of the public at all times,” the Commissioner said.
He further made clear that the Command would not tolerate conduct capable of damaging the reputation of the Police or weakening public confidence in the institution.

The Command's position comes amid growing public scrutiny of the conduct of security personnel, particularly when their actions or utterances are captured and circulated widely on social media.
By promptly identifying the officer and initiating disciplinary action, the Command said it was reinforcing its position that accountability applies to its personnel and that individual conduct should not undermine the broader responsibilities of the Police to the public.

Crime › NSCDC FCT Command Nabs Pipeline Vandals by Godspowerpro(op): 11:24am On Sep 25
The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Federal Capital Territory Command, has arrested three suspects allegedly linked to the vandalism and attempted removal of components of an NNPC pipeline in Dafa, Kwali Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

The arrests, described by the Command as a major breakthrough in its intelligence-led campaign against economic sabotage and the destruction of critical national infrastructure, followed credible information received through the local vigilante group collaborating with the NSCDC Kwali Divisional Office.

The arrested suspects are:
• Maitama Inuwa ‘M’ 30yrs from Rafin Dadi in Lere Local Government of Kaduna State who is the driver of the truck with registration number MAK 159 XA(Niger) used in conveying the vandalized pipes,
• Yahuza Danlami ‘M’ 32yrs old from Anguwan Kataf, Mariri Lere Local Government of Kaduna State, is the Motor Boy of the truck.
• Yasir Abdulrahman ‘M’ 26yrs from Gajiri Village, Suleja, Niger State who is the representative of the vandalized pipes dealers.

In a press statement made available to the National Association of Online Security News Publishers (NAOSNP), the FCT Commandant of the NSCDC, Dr Olusola Odumosu, disclosed that preliminary investigations indicated that the suspects operated in remote and forested areas through which petroleum pipelines passed.

“When it’s dark, they deliberately dig up and cut these high-pressure pipelines into sizable pieces for easy loading into their trucks,” he said.

Disclosing the manner of breakthrough, Odumosu informed that the NSCDC, acting on credible intelligence about pipeline right-of-way vandalism in the area, deployed surveillance personnel to the location before the suspects were eventually arrested.

“Our operatives intensified surveillance through monitoring and patrolling of the location. But upon sighting our men, the suspected vandals fled the scene and abandoned the already severed petroleum pipelines.

“However, the monitoring activities paid off on Sept. 20 when the suspects allegedly returned to the area and attempted to load the abandoned iron pipes into a truck.

“NSCDC operatives on surveillance, supported by members of the vigilante group, swiftly moved in and arrested three of the suspects, while some other members of the gang reportedly escaped into the surrounding bush,” he said.

Odumosu said pipeline vandalism not only caused massive economic losses to the country but also posed an immediate risk of explosions and environmental degradation.

“This successful operation has effectively disrupted a major network responsible for sabotaging the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited pipelines, originally built to supply crude oil and other petroleum products to the Kaduna refinery and other depots across the country,” he said.

The commandant said the arrested suspects had been subjected to preliminary investigation and profiling and would be granted administrative bail after meeting the stipulated conditions.

“Preliminary investigation by the Intelligence and Investigation Department in the command has also identified others allegedly connected with the activities, including four suspects whose names were mentioned and are currently at large.

“The investigation further indicates the possible existence of an organised criminal network involved in the vandalism, movement and illicit sale of components removed from the pipeline right of way,” he said. 

Odumosu disclosed that the exhibits recovered from the suspects included a long commercial truck loaded with 17 vandalised NNPC petroleum pipes.

While appreciating the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, and the NSCDC Commandant General, Ahmed Audi, for supporting the command’s efforts, the Commandant maintained that the Corps would work to identify the alleged end-buyers and sponsors behind the activities.

Politics › Agege Security Summit: Public-private Partnership In Community Security by Godspowerpro(op): 3:47pm On Sep 24
Agege Security Summit: LSSTF ES/CEO, Ogunsan to Share Insights on Stakeholder Collaboration, Public-Private Partnership in Community Security at October 8

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



The Executive Secretary/CEO of the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan, will bring his wealth of experience in security financing, inter-agency collaboration and strategic investment in public safety to the forthcoming Agege Security Summit, where he is expected to deliver a keynote intervention on the role of public-private partnership in strengthening community security.

Ogunsan’s special invitation comes against the backdrop of his growing engagements across Lagos’ security ecosystem, with the LSSTF under his leadership continuing to strengthen collaboration with security agencies, community stakeholders and private-sector partners in support of a safer and more secure Lagos. His participation is expected to provide an important perspective on how sustainable security requires not only government action but also the active involvement and investment of businesses, communities and other stakeholders.

The Agege Security Summit host by the Executive Chairman of Agege Local Government, Hon. Vinod Obasa is described by its organisers as a community-focused platform designed to bring together government representatives, security professionals, community leaders, businesses and residents to engage in meaningful conversations around community safety, security and sustainable development. Ogunsan will serve as a Guest Speaker at the summit, scheduled for Thursday, October 8, 2026, at the Agege Local Government Hall, beginning at 10 a.m.

Other distinguished personalities who will be speaking at the Agege Security Summit include the Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa; former Orile-Agege LCDA Chairman, Hon. J.S. Babatunde; Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Fatai Tijani; ACP Saheed Egbeyemi; real estate investor, Abdullahi Saheed Mosadoluwa; the Convener, Abdullahi Anikulapo, and the Chief Host and Agege LGA Chairman, Hon. Vinod Obasa.

The organisers indicated that Ogunsan’s “distinguished leadership as the Executive Secretary/CEO of the Lagos State Security Trust Fund” made his experience and insights particularly relevant to the summit. He has specifically been invited to speak on “Public Private Partnership in Community Security,” with the organisers noting that "your perspective on the role of strategic investment in strengthening community security will provide valuable insight into how government, communities, businesses, and other stakeholders can work together to build safer and more secure communities."

The summit comes at a time when community participation and sustainable financing are increasingly important components of contemporary security management. Beyond conventional enforcement, effective community security requires partnerships capable of supporting prevention, intelligence sharing, logistics, public awareness and rapid response.

The organisers affirmed that Ogunsan's presence and speech would provide the opportunity for stakeholders to collectively examine practical pathways towards a safer and more sustainably developed Agege.


Thank You Jesus

Many well wishes with pictures of the veteran musician have flooded social media timelines today, wishing him sufficient Grace, prosperity, joy and long life.

GODSPOWERPROJECT Managing Director, Deji Obasa, also joined the host of other prominent names to celebrate the music legend on his special day.

The Promotions executive had remarkable words to describe Wale Thompson as he commemorated him on his 60th birthday.

Obasa highlights how Wale's style has always been unique, due to his music fusion skills, coupled with the fact that he's been a consistent link between the old and new generation of music.

Wale Thompson is well known for his guitar prowess. He attained musical stardom in the late 90s and early 2000s when he released the hit single 'Lalale Friday'. The song received a lot of airplay and recognition all over the country and set the pace for an international career.

His groovy fusion has notably been termed Afro Juju, Hip-Juju, until he personally coined it Hip-Juju, alluding to the central juju theme mixed with Hip-hop vibes.

Shortly after the accident that nearly claimed his life, Wale went off mainstream music to focus on private and international gigs. He still plays at exclusive clubs in Nigeria, along with popular locations across Europe and the Americas.

Some of Wale Thompson's notable projects include the sensational 'Lalale Friday' with remix featuring Kennis Music Allstars (Eddy Remedy, Eedris AbdulKareem etc), 'Jaiye' produced by Khorusmix, 'My Logo' 'Destiny' among many others.


60 hearty Cheers to Wale Thompson aka Mr. Lalale Friday. Many happy returns in divine health and wealth in Jesus name.

Strengthen Youth Development, Rehabilitation - as Oladimeji meets ACGN Wali Liman

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


The Lagos State Security Trust Fund’s Campaign Against Crime, Cultism and Other Vices (LSSTF-CACCOV) has commenced a strategic partnership with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Lagos State Strategic Command, to intensify preventive interventions against drug abuse and trafficking, particularly among young people and vulnerable communities. This partnership follows a courtesy visit of the LSSTF-CACCOV State Coordinator, Dr. Moses Oladimeji to the NDLEA Lagos Strategic Headquarters in Ikoyi. The meeting highlighted the growing recognition that Nigeria’s drug crisis cannot be defeated through enforcement alone. While arrests, seizures and prosecution remain essential to disrupting the supply of illicit substances, sustained public education, rehabilitation, community engagement and youth empowerment are equally important in reducing demand and preventing drug-related crime.

Speaking during the visit to the Commander, NDLEA Lagos Strategic Command, Assistant Commander General of Narcotics, ACGN Wali Liman Abubakar, LSSTF-CACCOV State Coordinator, Dr. Moses Oladimeji, said the alarming volume of seized narcotics in Lagos underscored the urgent need for stakeholders to adopt a coordinated and preventive approach to the drug crisis.

Oladimeji, who recalled attending an NDLEA event where drugs worth more than ₦3.1 billion were destroyed, said the experience compelled him to reflect on the scale of drug trafficking and its implications for public safety. “When you see the amount of drugs that was piled up to be burnt, you begin to ask yourself: where are these things coming from, and how are we going to solve this issue? It shows that this problem is a major one for us, and we have to address it,” he said.

According to him, drug abuse is closely connected to insecurity, violent crime, cultism and the erosion of young people’s potential. He maintained that the drug war must extend beyond enforcement operations to include deliberate efforts to change attitudes, strengthen awareness and provide young people with healthier alternatives.
“If the issue of drugs can be tackled, then the issue of insecurity and crime will be reduced to the barest minimum. That is why we must take these messages to every nook and cranny—schools, campuses, communities, religious gathering, motor parks and other places where young people gather,” Oladimeji stated.

He disclosed that LSSTF-CACCOV, since its establishment on February 28, had taken its preventive campaign to institutions including Yaba College of Technology and the Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka, where more than 3,000 students were reached through sensitisation and engagement activities. Oladimeji explained that the initiative’s non-kinetic approach was rooted in empathy, education and meaningful relationships rather than condemnation. He called for closer collaboration with the NDLEA, including the participation of its personnel in LSSTF-CACCOV programmes and the identification of rehabilitation success stories that could inspire others to seek help and embrace recovery.

Another significant issue raised during the meeting was the need to incorporate rehabilitation success stories into the joint advocacy efforts of LSSTF-CACCOV and the NDLEA. Oladimeji proposed that individuals who had successfully overcome drug addiction through NDLEA-supported rehabilitation programmes could be identified and their recovery journeys documented and shared with the public. He explained that presenting such stories, including at the LSSTF Town Hall Meeting attended by key stakeholders, would demonstrate the transformative impact of rehabilitation, encourage others battling addiction to seek help and strengthen public confidence in the NDLEA’s interventions. According to him, showcasing even five or more recovery stories through a formal partnership would help draw greater attention to the agency’s work and reinforce the message that recovery is possible with the right support, professional care and sustained commitment.

Responding, the Commander of the NDLEA Lagos Strategic Command, Assistant Commander General of Narcotics, ACGN Abubakar Liman Wali, welcomed the delegation and explained that Lagos had been upgraded from a state command to a strategic command under the leadership of the agency’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Brigadier-General Mohamed Buba Marwa (retd.)

Wali said the decision reflected Lagos’ strategic position as Nigeria’s commercial hub, with major seaports, airports and border routes through which illicit substances could enter the country. “Looking at Lagos as the commercial hub, with a lot of seaports, airports and border ports, and the bulk of drugs coming through these routes, the Chairman, Brig. Gen. Mohammed Buba Marwa (retd), deemed it necessary to upgrade Lagos State to a Strategic Command headed by an Assistant Commander General of Narcotics,” he explained.

The Commander said that addressing drug trafficking in Lagos would have significant implications for the wider national drug-control effort. “If we are able to solve the problem of drug abuse and trafficking in Lagos, almost 90 per cent of drug abuse in this country will be addressed,” Wali stated.

He also explained that the NDLEA under Marwa had expanded its focus beyond arrests and prosecution to include prevention, sensitisation and rehabilitation. According to him, the agency’s mandate comprises two interconnected dimensions: supply reduction through enforcement, seizures, arrests and prosecution, and demand reduction through public education, prevention and recovery support. “Before the coming of the present Chairman, what NDLEA had done was largely to arrest, prosecute and carry out enforcement activities. But now, we are into sensitisation, rehabilitation and prevention. That is the aspect he has given priority,” Wali said.

He stressed that prevention was more economical and sustainable than waiting until individuals became addicted. “Prevention is less costly. When somebody becomes addicted, you will spend more. But with a little awareness, people can be educated about the implications of what they are taking,” he stated.

Wali acknowledged the operational challenges confronting the Command, revealing that Lagos had only six functional NDLEA operational vehicles, three of which were provided through the Lagos State Security Trust Fund. He appealed for continued institutional support to improve patrol operations, intelligence sharing and community-based interventions.

He further encouraged LSSTF-CACCOV to collaborate with the agency on campus security training, school administrators, counsellors, psychologists and student-led advocacy clubs. He noted that young people were often more receptive when preventive messages were delivered by their peers. The Commander disclosed that each NDLEA area command in Lagos was expected to conduct at least 10 sensitisation programmes monthly across schools, faith-based organisations, communities and marketplaces. He invited LSSTF-CACCOV personnel to participate in the activities, describing the partnership as an opportunity for both organisations to share expertise and expand their reach.

The engagement reinforced the urgent need for Nigerians to treat drug abuse as a shared public health, security and development challenge. Families, schools, religious institutions, communities, government agencies and civil society organisations must build sustained systems of prevention, early intervention, rehabilitation and reintegration.

Other NDLEA Lagos Strategic Command's management team in attendance are; Deputy State Commader, CN James Akogwu Elayoni; Deputy Commander, Operations and Training,
CN Adisa Bolaji Toyin; Deputy Commander, Admin and Logistics, DCN MS Abba; Assistant State Commander, Financial Investigation, DCN Ali Bulama; CoS (Chief of Staff), ACN EE. Ukpong.

Career › Practical Skills Will Matter More Than Certificates Alone- Ephraim Royal by Godspowerpro(op): 6:01pm On Sep 21
Psalm 150:6 KJV
[6] Let every thing that hath breath Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
GODSPOWERPROJECT-Merica

GODSPOWERPROJECT


The world is looking for practical solutions.
Certification is good, and it is necessary.

But if your certification cannot help you solve real-life problems, then there is a challenge.

Be careful not to allow certification to complicate matters for you. Education should equip you to create value, solve problems and make a meaningful contribution to society.

My strong advice to young people is this: learn practical skills.

As I write this, I am a practically skilled man. By profession and practice, I am a painter, POP installer, furniture designer, and interior and exterior finishing expert, among other things. I personally handled the epoxy flooring at the National Hospital Abuja after COVID-19.

These are skills I didn't just learn from a classroom. I learned them through practice, experience, mistakes, discipline and solving real problems.

Our learning institutions should place stronger emphasis on technical and vocational skills—carpentry, mechanics, engineering, plumbing, fashion, electrical work, construction, artificial intelligence mastery, practical financial literacy and other skills that solve real-world problems.

Many of us didn't learn how to make, manage and multiply money until the realities of the marketplace forced us to learn.

We cannot continue with an education system that is predominantly “A for Apple” or 2 × 2 while the world around our children is becoming increasingly practical, technological and competitive.

Let us prepare our children not just to pass examinations, but to solve problems, create value and build sustainable livelihoods.

Certificates can open doors.
Practical skills can create solutions.
We need both.
