The investigative report outlined how a journalist acquired a university degree from Cotonou within a span of six weeks, complete with an authentic scan code and transcript.

The journalist successfully utilized the obtained counterfeit degree to participate in Nigeria’s National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme without detection.

The investigation exposed a collaboration between Nigerian racketeering agents and senior staff at a university campus in Cotonou, including Nigerians serving as registrar and English section coordinators.

In response to these revelations, the federal government has suspended the accreditation of Togolese and Beninese degree certificates.

This decision has implications for graduates from these countries intending to enroll in the NYSC scheme, a prerequisite for corporate employment in Nigeria.

The suspension is a part of an ongoing joint investigation by the education ministries of both countries and the NYSC. The Nigerian ministry acknowledged the persistent challenge of combating certificate fraud and degree mills.

The following Beninese and Togolese universities are affected by the suspension:

By

Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, the Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry in Enugu, recently responded to critics by highlighting the significant risks he undertook to support Peter Obi during his impeachment as Governor of Anambra State. Speaking during a church program on Friday, Fr. Mbaka challenged the narrative that he has been a hindrance to the NDC presidential candidate.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

  • Defending his history of support: Fr. Mbaka asserted that he played a critical, behind-the-scenes role in gathering the necessary documentation and organizing the efforts required to restore Obi to office after his impeachment.

  • Criticizing fair-weather supporters: The cleric claimed that 99.9% of those now vocal in their support for the former governor had actually abandoned him during his impeachment ordeal.

  • Challenging his critics: Fr. Mbaka insisted that the efforts he made for Obi during that period were far greater than what his current supporters could replicate, and he encouraged people to verify these events with individuals like Chris Uba and Ibeto, who were present at the time.

  • Reaffirming his stance: He concluded by dismissing the criticism as uninformed, declaring that he has always been a solution rather than a problem and that he maintains a deep love for his people.

During a recent visit to Washington, D.C., Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), argued that the prevalence of election rigging in Nigeria is largely due to voters failing to actively defend their ballots. Obi emphasized that while candidates play a role in the process, credible outcomes ultimately depend on citizens remaining at their polling units to ensure votes are counted transparently. He criticized the “transactional” nature of Nigerian politics, suggesting that many voters prioritize other activities over the essential task of monitoring the electoral process. According to Obi, Nigeria’s primary challenge is poor political leadership, and he urged citizens to take collective ownership of their votes to demand the accountable governance required for the country to succeed.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has called for increased citizen involvement in protecting electoral integrity. During a recent trip to Washington, D.C., Obi stated that election manipulation persists because voters frequently leave polling stations before the counting process is completed. He argued that:

  • Voters must proactively defend their ballots at polling units to ensure transparency and prevent rigging.

  • Nigeria’s fundamental obstacle is a crisis of political leadership, rather than a lack of natural or human resources.

  • Real change requires Nigerians to move beyond passive participation and take active responsibility for the electoral process.

By

Bello Matawalle, the Minister of State for Defence, recently stated that ending Nigeria’s insecurity requires a combination of collective national effort and divine intervention. In an interview with BBC Hausa, he emphasized that insecurity is a broad national concern that transcends political, religious, and regional lines, necessitating unified support from citizens, community leaders, and security agencies.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

  • Call for Unity: The Minister urged Nigerians to prioritize national interest over partisan politics, noting that insecurity is not a tool for scoring political points.

  • Criticism of Opposition: Matawalle accused certain opposition figures of exploiting the security situation to incite the public against the government and advance their own political agendas, rather than helping to address the crisis.

  • Combating Misinformation: He raised alarm over the circulation of “fake and recycled” videos on social media—some dating back years or originating from other countries—which are falsely presented as current events to suggest worsening security under the Tinubu administration. He encouraged citizens to verify information before sharing it.

  • Government Commitment: Highlighting that the Federal Government has ordered security forces to deal decisively with criminal elements, Matawalle acknowledged that while progress is being made, complex security challenges cannot be resolved overnight.

  • Public Cooperation: He called for continued public patience, prayer, and the provision of actionable intelligence to security forces to help restore peace across the country.

The Minister’s comments come amid renewed public anxiety following reports of mass abductions at schools in Oyo and Borno states.
