Our house is on fire, yet these ones are busy chasing rats. How does this list improve the education students receive? Unconventional wearing of face cap?? Piercings and tattoos? In 2025? Why not add tribal marks to the list, “great” Ife?

OUT NOW from the The Howard Center for Investigative Journalism: Millions of tons of hazardous materials travel along U.S. rail lines each year. What risk do these #trains pose to communities? Are they prepared to respond when one derails? 🧵Here's what a new investigation reveals: cnsmaryland.org/2025/08/06/man…

If you were a passenger on Comfort Emmanson's Ibom Air flight from Uyo to Lagos, and you're willing to share what transpired on the plane and with the air hostess (outside the video footages in circulation), one of my colleagues at Foundation for Investigative Journalism (FIJ) is interested in speaking with you.

Why are railroads allowed to inspect their own operations? Why don’t communities know more about the cargo traveling through their neighborhoods? The Howard Centers for Investigative Journalism at Merrill College @ Maryland and Cronkite School dig into these questions: cnsmaryland.org/off-the-rails/

From the very little I know, the point of journalism is to highlight societal problems. Dear Premium Times what is the problem here? You want women to stop going to the gym?

Dear Premium Times what has this gym goer done wrong by going to the gym to simply work out? Do you know that men wear tights at the gym too? Are you pushing a sexist narrative with this story? Have women ever complained about men with big dicks distracting them at the gym?

“Onyeka Nnaji leaves for the gum with only one intention: to exercise his body.” But the women at his gym have other intentions?? Dear Premium Times What would you rather women wear to the gym?

What's women's problem with Nnaji's inability to focus on his mission??? "Tight dresses distract us". Should women wear agbada to the gym because of Nnaji's lack of focus?

Thank you so much Media Foundation for West Africa for this big honour! My gratitude is bottomless. And thanks to HumAngle_ and Institute for War & Peace Reporting, without whom the report would not have come to light, especially in the form that it did. 💙
