The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ooni off Ife, launched Ojaja Soft Drinks (Ojaja Cola and Ojaja Orange) a while ago around February to be precise, as a locally sourced, African-made brand aimed at competing with global brands. The products are manufactured using natural ingredients to promote healthier choices, create jobs, and bolster the Nigerian economy.
According to Ooni of Ife, he gave reasons why the products will be unbeatable in the market.

According to him, he said: I take profound joy in finally showcasing the canned variants of OJAJA Cola and OJAJA Orange. This development represents a compelling testament to our collective ability to conceive, develop, and deliver world class products wholly within our own nation. This milestone transcends the realm of beverages; it is a powerful declaration of identity and an unequivocal affirmation that Nigeria is capable of producing excellence from inception to final delivery without compromise.
Every aspect of the OJAJA brand reflects an unwavering commitment to national pride and industrial advancement. From the aluminium cans, entirely manufactured within Nigeria, to the meticulously formulated beverages they contain, the entire value chain is anchored in indigenous expertise, resources, and vision. This intentional approach not only preserves economic value within our borders but also projects the strength and sophistication of Nigerian manufacturing on the global stage. It stands as clear evidence that purposeful industrialisation can elevate both product quality and national confidence.

OJAJA Cola, OJAJA Orange, together with our other future products, exemplify authenticity and refinement, offering rich and distinctive flavours that meet and exceed international standards. Beyond their sensory appeal, however, they represent a broader transformation in perception, one in which Nigerian made products are no longer seen as substitutes but as preferred choices. By prioritising local production at every stage, this initiative actively supports industrial growth, drives job creation, and reinforces the structural integrity of our economy.

This achievement is firmly aligned with a wider vision of economic sovereignty and cultural pride, where our consumption patterns reflect our identity and values. In its canned form, OJAJA Cola and Orange are far more than beverages; they represent a movement and a bold declaration that Nigeria is poised to lead, to produce with confidence, and to compete on a global scale while remaining deeply rooted in its rich heritage.
Ojoja Cola and Orange are available at Shop 14 Ojaja VIP 1 Mall, Ojaja Park Alagbaka, Akure. Also at Ojaja Mall ,Abraham Adesanya St, Lekki Scheme II , Lagos.

The countdown to March 31, 2026, has officially entered its final stretch. While you might have seen headlines claiming only 19 banks have met the mark, the reality on the ground is much more dynamic. In fact, as of January 2026, we have seen a surge of compliance, with approximately 22 out of 34 banks now having their licenses "secured" under the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) new rules.

If you are wondering where your money is or if your bank is safe, here is the fact-driven breakdown of the current banking landscape, correcting common misconceptions along the way.

Recapitalised banks

The CBN set a high bar of ₦500 billion for international banks and ₦200 billion for National banks. Crucially, this must be "paid-up capital", banks cannot count their saved profits (retained earnings) toward this goal.

These banks are recapitalised:

Access Bank, Zenith Bank, GTBank, UBA, First Bank and Fidelity: These banks have crossed the N500 billion finish line and have secured their international licence.
FCMB, Wema, Standard Chartered, Citibank: These banks have officially secured their national license, with FCMB in the final sprint to hit the ₦500 billion to secure its international banking licence.
Other secured banks: Stanbic IBTC, Sterling Bank, Providus Bank, Globus Bank, and Premium Trust Bank have all officially cleared the requirement.

Mergers and downgrades

The story of the 2026 recapitalization also featured mergers, acquisitions, and downgrades:

Unity Bank and Providus Bank are in the final stages of a merger that will create a top 10 Nigerian lender. Similarly, Titan Trust has completed its integration with Union Bank to solidify its capital base.
Nova Bank chose a Regional License (₦50 billion) to focus specifically on being a high-end niche player, a healthy business move.
Non-Interest banking: Islamic banks like Jaiz, Taj, and Lotus have all met their ₦20 billion requirement, proving that niche banking is stronger than ever.

For the few banks still in the "red zone," the next 80 days will involve final-hour mergers or private equity injections. For you, the customer, this means a banking sector that is tougher, more transparent, and better funded than ever before.

Harmony Garden and Estate Development Limited has raised an alarm over an alleged multimillion-naira fraud involving one of its former staff members known as Fibiyisola Mustapha.


In an official statement issued by the company’s management, the firm disclosed that Fibiyisola Mustapha, whose photograph and phone number were earlier published has been disengaged from the organization and no longer represents the company in any capacity, either as staff or consultant.



According to Harmony Garden, Mustapha allegedly breached the company’s financial system, illegally accessed its account, and diverted funds running into millions of naira. The company added that the matter has been formally reported to the Nigerian Police Force, which has commenced investigations into the alleged theft involving Mustapha and Jorge Haus Consulting Limited.



The statement further noted that, rather than cooperating with investigators to resolve the matter, Mustapha allegedly resorted to blackmail and intimidation tactics. Harmony Garden claimed she boasted of leveraging her relationship with social media personality “VeryDarkMan” in an attempt to discourage the company from pursuing the case and seeking justice.



Despite the unfolding drama, Harmony Garden and Estate Development Limited reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, due process, and the protection of its clients, partners, and the general public.



The statement was signed by the Management of Harmony Garden and Estate Development Limited.

Harmony Garden is widely recognized for its zero-tolerance policy on corruption, land grabbing, and sharp practices issues that plague many parts of Ibeju-Lekki.

Why Harmony Garden Estates Keep Appreciating:
Beyond integrity, experts attribute the rising value of Harmony Garden estates to strategic land banking within Ibeju-Lekki’s development belt. The company’s estates are strategically positioned around critical infrastructure, such as:


Dangote Refinery, which is already reshaping industrial activity, Lekki Deep Seaport, boosting international trade, Lekki International Airport project, set to increase commercial traffic and residential demand, A rapidly expanding network of roads, industries, and residential hubs.

As Nigerians in the diaspora prepare to return for the festive holidays, the message is clear: invest wisely, verify every detail, and work only with trusted developers. With Ibeju-Lekki’s transformation accelerating, the stakes and the risks are higher than ever.

The Daramola Family of Bolorunpelu Onigbedu Village in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State, has issued a statement in response to recent claims by Lagos-based real estate firm ATCO Homes, concerning a disputed land transaction in the area.

In the statement made available to journalists, the family rejected allegations of irregularities in the land sale, describing the company’s position as inaccurate and misleading.

According to the family, a publication attributed to ATCO Homes’ Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Bartholomew Egbochie, alleged that the Daramola family altered the coordinates of a parcel of land sold to the company by executing a Deed of Rectification without ATCO’s consent.

Responding to the allegation, the family’s spokesperson, Alfa Falilu Daramola, maintained that the family had acted lawfully and transparently in all its dealings. He said ATCO Homes acquired about five acres of land through one of its representatives but that no payments were made directly to the current head of the family, Pa Ismail Olayiwola Daramola.

The family further claimed that ATCO Homes had attempted to extend its land boundaries beyond what was originally purchased, describing the development as a case of encroachment. They added that petitions and correspondence had been sent to the Lagos State Land Bureau, the Office of the Attorney General, and the Registrar of Titles to clarify their position and to prevent what they described as administrative mix-ups regarding land coordinates.

The Daramola family also alleged that ATCO Homes petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over the dispute, leading to the arrest of 83-year-old Pa Daramola. In a protest letter dated October 30, 2025, sent through their legal representatives at Dominance Legal Chambers, the family urged the EFCC to treat the matter as a civil issue rather than a criminal one.

“The EFCC must not allow itself to be drawn into a purely commercial land dispute between private parties,” the letter stated in part.

The family further called on the Lagos State Ministry of Lands and the Office of the Attorney General to investigate the circumstances surrounding the land in question, emphasizing their readiness to cooperate fully with any transparent inquiry.

They reaffirmed that ATCO Homes’ legitimately acquired property remains intact and undisturbed, while expressing confidence that the courts will ultimately resolve the matter.

“We remain committed to protecting our family’s name and property through lawful and transparent means,” the statement concluded.

When contacted, ATCO Homes had yet to issue an additional response beyond its earlier publication at the time of filing this report.

This report is based on statements and documents provided by the Daramola family and public records relating to the ongoing land dispute. The allegations and claims mentioned herein remain unproven and are currently the subject of active legal proceedings.

Prominent leader of the Celestial Church of Christ and founder of Global Parish Church, Prophet Israel Oladele, commonly known as Genesis, has urged Nigerians, both at home and abroad, to be cautious in their reactions to U.S. President Donald Trump's comments regarding Nigeria. The respected man of God has been observing Nigerians' reactions for about two days and notes that the country is currently grappling with challenges posed by banditry and Boko Haram violence, which are not solely related to Christians.

Recent tensions between the United States and Nigeria stem from assertions by the U.S. government that Nigeria is not doing enough to address the killings of Christians within its borders. As a result, the Trump administration designated Nigeria as a "Country of Particular Concern" (CPC) due to severe violations of religious freedom.

President Donald Trump and several American lawmakers, including Senator Ted Cruz, have claimed that Nigeria is facing an "existential threat" or "Christian genocide," alleging that the Nigerian government is "allowing" these atrocities to take place.


The man of God stated further, "I am a leader and a founder, and I believe it is my duty to protect my followers who share the same faith. However, it would be incorrect to claim that the crisis is solely a Christian issue. While many Christians have been killed, we must also acknowledge that many Muslims have lost their lives, particularly in the northern part of the country.

We should not overlook the possibility that the United States may have hidden agendas aimed at seizing our resources and assets, which would be akin to a form of second-term slavery or colonialism. It is crucial for us to be cautious. What everyone in Nigeria needs is to demand good governance from our president. Once accountability is established, we can start to see real improvements. We do not need foreign assistance that could further weaken our country," he concluded.

Israel Oladele Ogundipe is a compassionate leader, the Presiding Shepherd of CCC Genesis Global, and the Founder of the Israel Oladele Foundation. With a strong commitment to serving others, he has dedicated his life to uplifting those in need by providing essential resources and services.

Thursday, October 9, 2025, is a special day for the popular Lagos real estate couple, Dr. Bamidele and his lovely wife, Tolulope Onalaja, as they celebrate their 21st wedding anniversary. The couple is the proud owners of RevolutionPlus Property Company Limited, a well-known real estate firm.

They are also the founders of the Chris Bamidele Onalaja Foundation (CBOF), which focuses on various initiatives, including education and scholarships, child and maternal health, economic empowerment, support for widows, water and sanitation, and disease prevention.

Dr. Bamidele and Tolulope have made significant strides in life, and their contributions to society speak volumes. Their journey is particularly inspiring because they both come from humble beginnings. The couple, affectionately known as "Bams & Ayabams," has been intentional in nurturing their love while successfully building the RevolutionPlus Group—a conglomerate with multiple subsidiaries that began as a single property business.

They have skillfully blended their professional and personal lives, working together to achieve success in both areas. Their love story began over two decades ago when they had little to show for their efforts. They chose love over material wealth and have become role models for the younger generation. Today, they not only share their riches but also maintain a strong friendship.

Every October 9th is a celebration of the love and strong bond they have built over the years. To make a positive impact and foster a good image, the couple established TolDel Nursery and Primary School, a tuition-free institution that provides quality education to underprivileged children in Ikorodu, Lagos State.

Through Chris Bamidele Onalaja Foundation (CBOF), numerous schools have been built, and students have received educational materials, computers, and scholarships.

In the area of Economic and Community Development, CBOF collaborated with the Lagos government to sponsor the Lagos City Marathon for five consecutive years. During the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020, CBOF distributed palliative food packages to over 1,000 households, extending the initiative to Oyo State.

In terms of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene, CBOF has drilled multiple boreholes in various locations and communities, as well as constructed public toilets. All these projects remain intact and functional to this day.

For Widow Empowerment, many widows have benefited from CBOF's skills acquisition programs, learning trades such as soap making. In total, over 1,000 individuals have been empowered.

CBOF has also provided free medical assessments to towns and communities in Ibeju-Lekki, with doctors employed by the foundation. In Oyo State, the people of Ido Local Government in Ibadan, as well as those in Ogun State from Agbede-Odubose, Ikorodu, Obada, and Molaka Community in Abeokuta, have benefited from CBOF's free medical outreach.

"No one was left behind," as both young and old, men and women, were attended to by our doctors. As part of CBOF’s child and maternal health initiative, we are constructing an ultra-modern Child and Maternal Care Center in the Amuwo-Odofin area of Lagos. We have already held an elaborate groundbreaking ceremony to flag off this multi-million naira project.

Under the Education and Scholarship program, CBOF has built schools, provided scholarships to students, and distributed educational items, including free computer systems. One of our many projects is the Toldel Nursery and Primary School located in the Ikorodu area of Lagos, which currently has over 90 pupils enrolled.

Aside Toldel, we have also built two additional schools. The second school is Wasimi Junior High School in Maryland, which features a complete block of classrooms, auditoriums, and staff rooms. This facility was commissioned by the representative of the Lagos State Ministry of Education in 2021. The third school was constructed in Makoko, in the slums, and was donated to Christ Embassy and the Chris Oyakhilome Foundation to help local children access free education.
Additionally, we donated computers and air conditioners last year (2024) to the National Immigration Service Passport Office in Ikoyi.

To empower women, we provided free sewing machines and grinding machines. Additionally, over 200 women received 50,000 naira each to learn skills in soap making, zobo production, and various drink-making techniques. This funding was intended to help them purchase raw materials to kickstart their businesses.

Recently, on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, the school held its sixth graduation ceremony for students transitioning to secondary school. Parents, teachers, and students expressed their deep gratitude to the founders for their relentless efforts in providing less privileged children with access to completely free private primary education over the past six years.

The couple's efforts extend beyond the primary level. They are committed to building a free secondary school for graduates of Toldel Nursery and Primary School. Additionally, they offer scholarships for deserving students whose families cannot afford higher education, covering costs all the way up to the university level.

Let's celebrate the Revolutionary couple and congratulate them on their 21st wedding anniversary. Wishing them many more years together!

28 Million Housing Deficit: Harmony Gardens’ HOME Scheme Offers Fresh Hope For Nigerians



Nigeria’s housing crisis continues to deepen, with experts estimating a deficit of over 28 million units. Reports has revealed that the country builds far fewer than the 700,000 homes required annually over the next two decades to bridge this gap. Mortgage financing remains another major challenge, as less than 5% of Nigerians currently access mortgages due to high interest rates, limited repayment tenure, and bureaucratic hurdles in land administration.

However, hope is emerging through innovative public–private collaborations. At the BHD2024 Summit, attended by over 9,400 housing and finance stakeholders, Harmony Gardens & Estate Development Ltd, under the leadership of Hon. (Dr.) Audullahi Saheed Mosadoluwa, popularly known as Mr-Ibile, unveiled an ambitious model designed to change Nigeria’s homeownership narrative.



From its Lekki Aviation Town project, which started as bare land and has now grown into a thriving estate with over 500 housing units completed as of July 2025, Harmony Gardens launched the “Home Ownership Made Easy (HOME)” scheme in collaboration with the Ministry of Housing.



The HOME scheme introduces a simplified mortgage structure that allows Nigerians to secure a home with just 10% initial deposit, move in after paying 30% of the cost, access up to ₦50 million from the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) at single-digit interest rates.



This bold approach stands in sharp contrast to Nigeria’s conventional mortgage system, where interest rates hover between 32% and 38%, locking millions of families out of affordable homeownership.



Already, the results are encouraging as 3,495 Nigerians in the Diaspora have received homeownership counseling through the scheme. 232 families also have fully completed their purchase and will move into their homes by October. Another 1,091 families without wasting time have made informed commitments with just 10% deposits, awaiting federal mortgage disbursements.


The Harmony Gardens model highlights several critical takeaways for addressing Nigeria’s housing deficit, such as hybrid Financing Works, Pairing private capital with low-cost government funding improves affordability. Lower Interest Unlocks Access, moving from double-digit to single-digit mortgage rates drastically improves repayment feasibility. Financial Literacy is Key, buyer education and counseling empower families to make sustainable decisions. Flexible Repayment Matters, tenure extensions of up to 20–30 years make homeownership viable for middle and low-income earners. Reforms are Urgent, state-level adoption of pro-mortgage laws, land registry reforms, and foreclosure frameworks remain essential. PPP Models Scale Faster, Public–Private Partnerships can deliver large-scale solutions, as seen with Harmony Gardens and similar African initiatives.


Looking forward, Harmony Gardens plans to deliver 10,000 homes for 18,000 families within the next five years, a bold initiative that could serve as a national housing template. Its success demonstrates what is possible when visionary developers, financial institutions, and government agencies align toward a shared mission.

As Nigeria grapples with its housing crisis, this model offers more than just hope, it presents a blueprint for affordable, inclusive, and sustainable homeownership.

Harmony Gardens Boss, Hon. Dr. Saheed Mosadoluwa Bags NSE Award of Excellence

It was a moment of honour and recognition on Saturday, September 6, 2025, at JATA Hotel, Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos, as the Nigerian Society of Engineers (NSE), Ibeju-Lekki Branch, presented an Award of Excellence to the Chief Executive Officer of Harmony Gardens & Estate Development Ltd, Hon. (Dr.) Saheed Mosadoluwa Abdullahi, popularly known as Mr Ibile.



The award, according to the NSE, was in appreciation of Dr. Mosadoluwa’s outstanding contributions to engineering, infrastructure, and national development through his innovative housing projects and commitment to community growth.



Dr. Mosadoluwa, who has been at the forefront of affordable housing advocacy in Nigeria, was celebrated for spearheading massive estate projects such as Lekki Aviation Town, which has rapidly transformed from bare land into a thriving community. His vision of bridging Nigeria’s housing deficit with sustainable and accessible housing models continues to attract accolades both locally and internationally.



Speaking at the event, the leadership of NSE Ibeju-Lekki Branch described the Harmony Gardens boss as a “practical problem-solver whose work in real estate and community development aligns with engineering excellence and national progress.”



In his acceptance remarks, Dr. Mosadoluwa dedicated the award to his team at Harmony Gardens, stating that their collective effort and resilience made the recognition possible. He further pledged to continue supporting innovations that will not only promote engineering excellence but also create sustainable solutions to Nigeria’s housing challenges.



The colourful event had engineers, industry leaders, and stakeholders in attendance, with many hailing Dr. Mosadoluwa as an “agent of transformation” whose projects continue to impact lives positively.

DUBIOUS TACTICS SOME OMOONILE NOW USE TO DEFRAUD LAND BUYERS IN LAGOS

In a discussion with Dr. Oyeleke Ajiboye, the CEO of Efficacy Development PLC and a leading real estate expert in Lagos State with over two decades of experience, valuable insights were shared regarding land purchases. He highlighted the tactics used by land grabbers and certain "Omoonile" (local landowners) who falsely present themselves as customary landowners, deceiving individuals and leading them to lose their hard-earned money when purchasing property, particularly in areas under government schemes and those subject to government acquisition, as indicated in the 1993 acquisition gazette.
Dr. Oyeleke explained that the Lagos State Government has historically acquired large tracts of land in Ibeju-Lekki for public interest purposes, including urban development, housing schemes, schools, and hospitals. This acquisition is grounded in the Land Use Act of 1978, which entrusts control of urban land to the state Governor. A significant portion of land in Ibeju-Lekki was acquired through Official Gazette No. 20 Vol. 26, published on May 13, 1993, revoking occupancy rights for approximately 823.0 km² of land extending from Maroko eastward to the Lagos Lagoon, Lekki Lagoon, and Omu Creek.
This gazette notification serves as the legal foundation for the government’s acquisition and revocation of occupancy rights. The acquired land encompasses areas excluding established villages, towns, and settlements in Eti-Osa and Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Areas. The government’s acquisition prioritises public interest, promoting the development of low, medium, and high-income housing, schools, hospitals, and private estate developer schemes.
Dr. Oyeleke noted that lands under government acquisition are divided into two categories: "Global Acquisition," which refers to land that does not have a specific government purpose yet and may later be released via excision or ratification; and "Committed Acquisition," which designates land for specific public projects (e.g., infrastructure and housing schemes). Land in committed acquisition zones cannot be sold or developed by individuals, communities, or companies. Purchasing land in these zones is risky and may lead to demolition or loss of investment.
It is important to recognise that some Omoonile often claim customary ownership of these lands. However, the Land Use Act of 1978, particularly Section 21, has diminished customary titles by requiring the Governor or Local Government’s consent for any alienation, which includes transfers, assignments, or mortgages of customary rights of occupancy. This effectively replaces the absolute traditional ownership of land with a statutory or deemed right of occupancy, thereby reducing the traditional control that existed under native law and custom—this is known as the "abolition of freehold titles."
Nonetheless, in Lagos State, original native landowners retain the right to land ownership, but they no longer hold the right of occupancy. The government typically conducts an expropriation of land, releasing portions of land within government-controlled areas to recognised indigenous communities, private individuals, or families. The Land Use Act allows communities to apply to have some of their ancestral land returned to them through a process known as excision. After land acquisition, the government intends to compensate landowners by providing them with excised and gazetted land.
However, one deceptive tactic used by some landowners involves selling land beyond the boundaries that the government has assigned to them or established.
Another deceptive strategy used by land scammers is selling government land under acquisition to unsuspecting buyers. When the government intervenes, these buyers often request refunds or reassignment, realising they purchased land that wasn't owned by the seller. The documents they possess do not actually cover the land sold to them. Facing potential accusations of fraud, which is a criminal offence, these scammers might quickly file a lawsuit to drag the matter into court while they explore other illegal ways to resolve their fraudulent transactions. They often claim ownership through customary rights and insist they are contesting the issue with the government. This complex situation usually prevents innocent buyers from pursuing criminal charges against these perpetrators, as the scammers claim the matter is in court and ownership is contested.
Additionally, these scammers may exploit law enforcement agencies to intimidate buyers and undermine their cases, even though law enforcement, particularly the police, is typically prohibited from interfering in land disputes that are civil matters meant for resolution in court. They might also apply for an interim injunction to restrict legitimate owners and delay justice, further complicating the situation. Judges familiar with these tactics often reject such applications and order expedited hearings to prevent undue suffering for the rightful owners.
Despite court orders, these scammers continue to challenge decisions, wasting the time of the courts, the government, and legitimate investors. This enables them to deceive those who unwittingly purchased government-owned land. Such tactics have become common among individuals involved in land fraud. Most court cases today revolve around land disputes or individuals challenging the government, even when their claims are baseless.
A visit to various law enforcement agency offices would reveal that many cases being investigated primarily involve land-related issues, tactics used to evade punishment for selling illegal land. Ultimately, the innocent buyers, unaware that they acquired government land, can find themselves in court for years, waiting for a verdict on an injunction that continues to prolong the process.
Meanwhile, the legitimate investors suffer from unnecessary delays, as scammers intentionally frustrate the judicial process to extend their claims. In some instances, they may hire thugs, and the mere presence of these individuals can escalate matters into police issues. There have been reports of violent incidents, including fatalities on-site, as well as the disturbing act of placing an unclaimed body from a mortuary at the location to fabricate a murder scene. A perpetrator might then claim that a family member was killed on the property, involving an unclaimed body. These horrific tactics are often unknown to the police but are crucial for the public to understand.
When buying land, regardless of how appealing or trustworthy it may seem, it is essential to approach the process cautiously, as there are individuals who engage in unscrupulous behaviour.
Many people who are purchasing land are unaware of the challenges faced by the government and its allottees. I was personally introduced to a plot of land in a strategic location, but after praying with my wife and discussing it with a senior mentor, I chose not to buy the property. Shortly after my decision, someone was killed on that land. The owner, whose money is now tied up in the investment, is facing numerous difficulties and potential financial losses.
The judiciary and law enforcement should protect real estate investors. This situation serves as a wake-up call for society to address these issues, including the justice system, law enforcement, and the general public.
To curb the actions of land grabbers, two measures could be effective. First, if individuals know that land-related court matters in Lagos State will be resolved within three months, they may reconsider their tactics. They would understand that they have a limited timeframe to either recover their investment or find an alternative solution.
Secondly, any legal matters involving government land allocation should be directed to the Ministry of Justice or the Anti-Land Grabbers Committee before approaching the courts for intervention.
This is the current state of the industry, which is causing many stakeholders to lose confidence. Developers and others with interests in the sector are beginning to withdraw, as no one wants to take unnecessary risks.

The National Association of Ibeju-Lekki Students (NAILS) has officially appointed Hon. Dr. Saheed Mosadoluwa Audullahi, the CEO of Harmony Garden and Estate Development Ltd., as its Patron in recognition of his unwavering dedication to youth empowerment, education, and grassroots development.

The historic announcement was made during a high-profile ceremony held on August 1, 2025, where student leaders, youth bodies, and dignitaries gathered to honour a man many have come to regard as a beacon of hope for Ibeju-Lekki’s youth.

Hon. (Dr.) Audullahi Saheed Mosadoluwa, popularly addressed as Mr. Ibile, is the brain behind the Seven Citadels of Joy, tagged Ogba Idunnu, with the sole aim of bridging the housing deficit in Nigeria, most especially through the Harmony Renewed Hope Mortgage System and the Ibile Traditional Mortgage System, offering single-digit interest on 10,000 housing units for 10,000 families.

Dr. Mosadoluwa, popularly known for his philanthropy and community-driven initiatives, was lauded for his tireless efforts in promoting education, fighting drug abuse, and providing employment opportunities for indigenous youths.


In his heartfelt speech, Dr. Mosadoluwa reaffirmed his commitment to the youths of Ibeju-Lekki and beyond. He condemned the increasing rate of drug abuse among young people and highlighted his role in facilitating the presence of the NDLEA in the region to combat the menace.

“The fight against drugs is a fight for the future of our youth. We must build a generation that is empowered, productive, and free from addiction," he declared.


To demonstrate his sincerity and support, Dr. Mosadoluwa made a ₦1 million donation to kickstart NAILS’ flagship project, "Career Guidance Services", which aims to equip students with career counseling, job readiness skills, and entrepreneurship training.

In another generous move, he donated an additional ₦1 million on behalf of the Local Government Chairman, solidifying his deep-rooted interest in youth advancement and capacity building.

Dr. Mosadoluwa emphasized the rapid industrial and infrastructural growth of Ibeju-Lekki, predicting its emergence as Africa’s next business hub. He assured that Harmony Garden and Estate Development Ltd. would continue to prioritize employment for qualified locals, empowering the youth through jobs, training, and development.

“As our land grows in value, so do our people grow in skill. We are not just building estates; we are building lives,” he said

The event attracted wide support, with the presence of notable youth organizations such as the Federation of Epe Division Student Association (FEDSA), the National Youth Council of Nigeria (Lagos Chapter), and other vibrant student bodies.


NAILS described Dr. Mosadoluwa’s appointment as more than symbolic, it’s a strategic alignment with a man whose impact is felt across education, economy, and community service. As Patron, his role is expected to strengthen ties between local youth and leadership while amplifying programs that foster responsible citizenship and development.

7 Shocking Facts About the Genesis Prophet Many Don't Know


Genesis Prophet, Isreal Oladele Ogundipe, the founder of Genesis Global Church, has become one of the prominent figures promoting God's works. He is a dynamic and versatile individual in his 50s. Although he is a Celestial Prophet, he has distinguished himself among many others in this calling.
This anointed man of God has faced several challenges, yet God's anointing continues to guide him. He is one of the few prophets who had a difficult upbringing and is not shy about sharing his struggles from his early years.
Years after rising to prominence, he has become the spiritual backbone for many notable Nigerians facing various challenges. Through God's anointing and the help of the Holy Spirit, he has been able to guide them.
However, many Nigerians are unaware of some shocking details about his life. Despite these circumstances, he has remained dedicated to serving God's work. Below are surprising facts that you may not know about Prophet Genesis.

Accurate Prophecies

The Prophet is highly gifted and possesses the ability to see visions, many of which come to pass. For instance, he once prophesied to Aare Onakakanfo Gani Adams that he would be installed as Aare Onakakanfo. At the time, Adams was sceptical, but years later, when he was summoned by the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, for the honour, he recalled the prophecy. This ability to accurately predict future events is why many wealthy and notable Nigerians often visit his church for various needs. For example, when a popular politician from Ijebu was ill, one of the pastors he wanted to come and pray for him was Prophet Genesis, although he was out of the country at that time. And that shows how the rich and notable Nigerians value his ability and gift.

His Desire to Study Law

The Prophet has an extraordinary passion for the legal profession. If you ask him what he would want to be aside from serving God, he will gladly tell you he aspires to be a lawyer. He even has plans to study law at a university later in life to fulfil this long-term ambition.

How He Helps Many Youth With Funds For Education

He stands out as one of the few men of God who significantly help vulnerable and young individuals in academia. Many people refer to him as "Dad," as he has taken on the responsibility of supporting their education. Several of these individuals are currently in university, studying various courses. He invests a considerable amount of money to ensure their well-being and academic success.

He Didn't Know He Would Become a Prophet

Interestingly, he never planned to become a prophet. He started life struggling and even sleeping in churches. During his challenging times, he encountered a Celestial Church where he found the love and support he needed. This experience led him to join the Celestial Church, and he became a preacher of love rather than a preacher of religion. Initially, he perceived the white garment church as potentially ritualistic and was sceptical about their practices. However, he later discovered that they were not involved in anything occult. The kind people in that church offered him a white garment, which he accepted, realising that he could belong to a congregation without judgment over his attire. While in the church, he engaged in many spiritual practices, including fasting, which became a part of his life during his struggles with food scarcity. He spent many years sleeping in the church, participating as an instrumentalist until God began to use him to serve His people.


He Doesn't Ask His Members for Tithes.

The Genesis Prophet, Prophet Oladele, does not collect tithes from his church members, and this aligns with his interpretation of biblical teachings on tithing.
The man of God believes that giving, including tithes, should stem from a place of love and a willing heart, not from coercion or obligation.
Also, his ministry emphasises spiritual growth and fulfilling God's purpose, rather than solely focusing on financial contributions.
The Prophet's stance on tithing is based on his understanding of the scriptures, where he sees tithing as a matter of personal conviction and not a mandatory practice for Christians.
He encourages giving to the poor and needy, viewing this as a way of giving to God, rather than adhering to a strict tithing system.
The Prophet points to Jesus's ministry, where he did not collect tithes but rather focused on ministering to the needs of the people, as an example of how to approach giving.


He Was Born into a Muslim Family

He was born into a Muslim family named Sanyaolu in Abeokuta, Ogun State, before his father changed the family name to Ogundipe. His Muslim name is Wasiu, and his wife’s name is Sakirat. His mother's name is Risikat, and his father’s name is Sulaimon. His younger sisters also had Islamic names before they all converted to Christianity, joining the Christ Apostolic Church located at 31 Church Street, Oshodi, over four decades ago.

Lack of University Education

Despite being one of the most visible Celestial Prophets in Nigeria, he did not attend university. He is dynamic, versatile, and well-grounded in the Word of God, which has endeared him to many people across the country. Interestingly, many do not know that he speaks good English and has a strong command of the language. His self-improvement efforts, including extensive reading and keen observation of effective communication, have contributed to his ability to engage a large audience. Meeting him for the first time, you might mistake him for a Pentecostal pastor.

Hmm

If you’re searching for a real estate company that has quietly earned the trust of investors over the past 14 years, look no further than Bashmoh Homes Limited. Currently, it ranks among the best-performing firms in the Nigerian property sector. Bashmoh Homes is built on a foundation of trust and integrity, dedicated to providing quality yet affordable homes for ordinary Nigerians, both at home and abroad.
The vision of providing homes for common Nigerians was initiated by Alhaji Bashir Jimoh, a prominent figure in the real estate sector who has established a solid reputation over the years. He founded Bashmoh Homes over 14 years ago in Lagos and currently serves as the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer.
Alhaji Jimoh is an active property developer with projects in Lagos, Abuja, Asaba, Enugu and other locations, and is providing quality but affordable despite the economic challenges facing Nigeria. The company also focuses on estate development, mortgage advisory, building engineering and consulting, property leasing and letting, and general land consultation.

Partnership with the Nigerian Air Force.

A few years ago, Bashmoh Homes Limited entered into a partnership with the Nigerian Air Force to build affordable homes consisting of 2 to 3-bedroom duplexes. Alhaji Jimoh stated, "We want to provide real value in housing prices. One of our major partners in Abuja is the Nigerian Air Force, which plans to deliver two to three-bedroom duplexes at an average price of 50 million Naira and below. For comparison, similar properties in that area typically range from 70 million to 100 million Naira."
He further explained, “We understand that affordability is subjective. The successful model we’ve implemented with the Nigerian Air Force is the same approach we are trying to replicate in Lagos, Asaba, and Enugu.” Recently, the company and the Nigerian Air Force officially launched the Enugu project, following the earlier launch of the Abuja project.

Achievements of Bashmoh Homes in 2024

Alhaji Jimoh also discussed other partnerships: "We have partnered with Abuja Property Development and Nasu-Unilag here in Lagos, among others. For real estate to thrive in 2025 and beyond, we need to focus on establishing long-term relationships rather than mere transactions."
He added, "Last year, we had 51 estates. Our goal is to increase this number to 70 by the end of 2025. We have already acquired lands from various state governments and are currently working on the necessary paperwork for Certificate of Occupancy (CofO) registration and building approvals with different agencies. For 2025, we are partnering with the Federal Housing Authority to develop the Ashiwaju Ahmed Tinubu Renew Home Ownership Programme."
"We aim to produce over 600 housing units in Abuja and are finalizing the paperwork. We are also in advanced discussions with the Abuja Property Development Corporation to expand in the Kachi area, focusing on housing for middle- and low-income earners," he concluded.
Alhaji Bashir Jimoh, the MD/CEO of Bashmoh Homes, established the company about 14 years ago to address the housing sector's deficit. The company specializes in estate development, mortgage advisory, building engineering and consulting, property leasing and letting, and general land consultation. They offer land and housing across the country, with properties in Mowe, Magboro, Simawa, the Ibeju Lekki axis, and other locations mentioned above.

More on Partnership with the Nigerian Airforce

The construction of the estate officially commenced at the beginning of the second quarter of 2025, with an anticipated completion and delivery timeline set for December 2025. Each duplex is meticulously designed on a generous 400 square meter plot, offering a perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and comfort tailored to meet the evolving needs of modern families.
Ms. Glory N. Okuku, the corporate communications spokesperson for Bashmoh Homes Limited, emphasized the company’s unwavering commitment to excellence, stating, “This project is envisioned as a masterpiece—a reflection of our dedication to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction. From design to finishing, we are ensuring that every detail upholds the highest standards. Residents will enjoy not only beautifully crafted homes but also the advantage of living in a fully serviced estate with all essential infrastructure in place.”
The NAF-Ville Estate stands out as a premier destination for homeowners seeking peace of mind, thanks to its enhanced security measures and a thriving, well-organized community atmosphere. This new development by Bashmoh Homes will further elevate the estate’s appeal, offering prospective homeowners a rare opportunity to invest in one of Abuja’s most promising residential locations.
Interest from buyers and investors has already begun to grow, driven by the strategic location, superior quality, and the security reputation associated with the Nigeria Air Force’s involvement.
With the December 2025 handover target clearly in sight, Bashmoh Homes invites discerning homeowners, investors, and stakeholders to participate in this remarkable project—a true celebration of excellence in urban living.
For further information and inquiries about the project, potential clients are encouraged to contact Bashmoh Homes directly or visit the project office at NAF-Ville Estate, Idu, Abuja.

...watching her every move, buddy.

Infact, you shouldn't have confronted her about her chat which you saw; that was a dick move tbh.
Cos now? She'll be more careful in her games. She won't be leaving her phone lying around carelessly anymore. And she surely would start deleting her chats.

All you needed to have done was to stealthily go full time "detective" on her by monitoring her chats with that very guy; without letting her get the hint that you're onto her.


From, "I miss you. I miss you too".
What follows after a while is always...
"When are we going to see?"
"When can I see you again?"
"Make we try see one of these days nah"
"Make we try see each other again nah"
Etcetera etcetera

Seriously dude, you fvcked up
by letting her know you've seen her chats once.

Taraba State Government Accused Of Allegedly Detaining Journalist Unlawfully

The Coalition of Journalists of Conscience, CJC has demanded the immediate release from detention of its member, Oloye Ayodele Samuel- the publisher of Taraba Truth and Facts and CEO of Rock FM 92.3 Jalingo.

The group is calling on the Nigerian Police Force, the Commissioner of Police Taraba State Command and the Taraba State Governor, Arc. Darius Ishaku to kindly honour the court ruling and free Ayodele Samuel.

In a statement, issued and signed on Thursday in Lagos by the group’s General Secretary, Mr Akinwale Kasali said Ayodele Samuel was on Tuesday November 29 illegally remanded at the Taraba State Police Command despite Meeting bail conditions.

The statement said, “Ayodele Samuel was arraigned at a magistrate court in Jalingo, presided by his lordship, Garba S. Garba on a two count charge of defamation and injurious falsehood.

“The charges were filed against him by the Gov. of Taraba State, Darius Dickson Ishaku, through the office of the Attorney General of the state.

“It comes as a reaction from nurtured grievance over a publication on page 5 of the Taraba Truth and Facts Newspaper, dated September 17, 2022 with the title "Taraba for Sale".

“The publication alleges a possible sale of the Taraba state-owned Mambilla Beverages Company and state properties, including the liaison office in Abuja. In which similar publications had appeared on other prominent Nigerian media prior to the publication on Taraba Truth and Facts without rebuttal.”

According to the Statement, Ayodele Samuel had at the court pleaded not guilty to the charges and his counsel applied for bail successfully, which the magistrate had described as ordinary bailable cases.

The bail conditions were ten million naira fee, two sureties resident in Jalingo having landed properties worth five million naira each.

There were about 12 persons willing to surety instantly, including two pastors but only two would have to help fulfill the bail conditions.

Subsequently, the bail conditions were met but it is quite unclear how the publisher has been remanded, but what is certain is the treacherous abuse of power by the state government.

Now, the Magistrate Court Registrar is saying the case file has being transferred to the State High Court, which obviously is a plan to frustrate the bail process and remand the innocent media entrepreneur further at the custody of the Taraba State Police Command long enough to satisfy Governor Ishaku’s thirst for oppression.

“Our investigation revealed that the State High Court intend to foot-drag the hearing of Ayodele’s case and keep him in detention even beyond December.

“We are calling on the Attorney General of the Federation, the Inspector General of Police, Nigerian Police Force, Nigerian Union of Journalists, NUJ to wade in to forestall this daylight attack on press freedom and of course the right of every Nigerian to live and do business legally anywhere in the Country.

“Prior to the arraignment Ayodele Samuel had honoured two police invitations over separate petitions from the Taraba state government and has conducted himself with regard for law. Thereafter Mr. Ayodele had raised alarms that government agents have tapped his call lines and are tracking his movements.

“Sources have claimed that Governor Ishaku has not been able to reconcile with the reality of someone from a different region of the country having significant impact over the media in the state.

“It has also been heard that on some occasion the Governor spoke of the publisher with disdain, even at the state house of assembly when he ought to be defending the State 2023 budget.

“Accusing and maltreating someone who should have been recognised and honoured as a pacesetter for establishing the first private radio station amidst his numerous achievements in Taraba state is shameful and we are calling on the government and its agents have a rethink and obey the court verdict.
