Beyond identifying Nigeria’s education challenges, Educare says it is ready to invest in solving them.
Educare CEO Alex Onyia says the organisation will commit $100,000 over the next 18 months to academic research exclusively in Nigeria, working with selected universities to deliver practical outcomes.
The organisation’s first research investment will focus on the development and psychometric standardisation of school examinations, with critical thinking as a core component.
The initiative will span primary, secondary, and tertiary education to improve the quality of assessments and learning outcomes across the country.
Onyia says it is time to begin building a truly Nigerian education system through meaningful, locally focused research rather than simply discussing the problems facing the sector.
“It is time we start committing to solving them with meaningful research investments.”
SENATOR KWANKWASO VISITS THE OBIDIENT HEADQUARTERS
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of hosting my dear elder brother and our vice presidential candidate, His Excellency, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, alongside the gubernatorial, senatorial, and other candidates of our great party, the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), from various states across the country, at the Obidient Headquarters in Abuja.
Our discussions focused primarily on strategies to expand and deepen the reach of our party and take our message of national redemption to rural communities and the hinterlands.
I reassured our candidates of my continued support in their respective states and constituencies. I also reaffirmed my commitment to working with them and undertaking the necessary groundwork to secure victory for our party.
My partnership with His Excellency Senator Rabiu Musa @KwankwasoRM is a partnership to rescue Nigeria from the calamitous and ineffective leadership that has brought our country to its present condition.
Our commitment is to commence lifting vulnerable Nigerians out of poverty, reduce the number of out-of-school children, support small and medium-sized businesses, secure our nation, unite our people, and move Nigeria from consumption to production.

These children are having the best time of their lives today in Enugu. They are concluding this week.
For the first time, they are using their hands to create meaningful things.
Some of them are from villages, some are from low-income areas, but they are all children.
I dream of a time in our nation when children from all backgrounds will have the freedom to learn and explore without limitations.
What’s always chasing chief Bola away from Nigeria?
Since 2023, we’ve watched Mr president going to abroad France, UK, Europe in the name of annual leave or visit, not even other African leaders have ever come here stay for up to 3days in the name of vacation. Is this not a shame for the so called giant of Africa? Are we only giant in greedy, wicked and terrible rulers?
Since 2023, not a single European leader he has been running to have ever visited even on a state visit, which is understandable because nobody want to associate with a Bagman who’s file if released could cause de@ths.
What is wrong with going to Zamfara, Kastina, Sokoto, Bornu for a vacation? This are the places were the money you’re spending come from, why running away from visiting them. Money from there is sweet but visiting it is bitter.
APC is the OL@DO we’re talking about!

A President and the Endless Question of His Past
As a citizen of no other country, who has never sought foreign citizenship even when doing so became fashionable, my loyalty to Nigeria and my faith in her destiny remain unshaken.
Yesterday, 30th of August, being Sunday, I fervently prayed for our nation and for those entrusted with the solemn responsibility of leadership. I found myself deeply saddened by the direction in which our country is heading.
It is profoundly embarrassing that we have reached a point where a sitting President is asking a foreign court to withhold records concerning his past, particularly records relating to matters of legitimate public interest.
Leadership, in my humble view, demands the courage and humility to confront one’s history — to acknowledge mistakes, provide candid explanations where questions arise, and, where necessary, apologise and seek forgiveness. True authority is strengthened, not diminished, when a leader accepts responsibility rather than seeks to shield uncomfortable aspects of the past from legitimate scrutiny.
This becomes particularly important when questions concern educational credentials. Issues surrounding foundational schooling — primary and secondary — should not remain unresolved or be addressed primarily through legal proceedings. Nigerians deserve clear, credible, and verifiable explanations, especially when such had been submitted in the past.
My deepest concern is the example this sets for more than 200 million Nigerians, particularly the over 30 million young people in schools. The nation’s highest office should exemplify integrity, accountability, transparency, and ethical leadership.
An imperfect past is part of the human condition. What matters is the willingness to confront it with humility, honesty and deep apology, to make amends where necessary and, when circumstances so demand, to place the interests of the nation above personal ambition.
When will our political class fully appreciate that individual ambitions are temporary, while the nation endures? The Presidency is an office held for a season; the moral standards established by those who occupy it can influence generations.
Nigeria is greater than any one person, and the integrity of the Republic must always come before the interests of the individual.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
APC Regional government antics is as old as British colonial era, it’s noting less than divide and conquer. A government that had, 2023, 2024, 2025 and early 2026 suddenly remember it just to weaken #Peter Obi strong hold.

For 2years My Message Is Clear.
This Is Why I Boldly Believe That The So Called EthnoLinguistic Restructuring Conference Is Part Of APC/PBAT Political Distraction Strategy To Destroy The Unity Between SouthEast & SouthSouth Not To Vote Them Out.
But We’re Aware

Emperor Umahi’s arrog@nce is not new in Nigeria political space. When you say people abuse you for campaigning for the bigger emperor and at the same time he is going win. How exactly do you plan his win?
We can’t insult you because you’re wearing OJUJU CALABAR!

I am deeply saddened by the fire outbreak at Ede Plaza in Jabi Market, Abuja, beside Sandralia Hotel, in the early hours of today.
My heart goes out to the traders, artisans, workers, families and business owners whose goods, investments and livelihoods may have been affected by this unfortunate incident. For many of them, what has been lost is not simply merchandise; it represents years of savings, borrowing, sacrifice, hope and the determination to build a better life.
As a country, we cannot continue to lose businesses and livelihoods repeatedly to preventable disasters. Each time this happens, we gradually lose our productive capacity. Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, and when a trader loses a shop, we should understand that a family may lose its income, children may lose educational opportunities, workers may lose their jobs, and an entire community may suffer economic instability.
The true measure of development is the extent to which government projects and investments improve and protect the lives and livelihoods of its people.
As we grieve what has happened at Jabi Market, let us not wait for another market to burn before we act. Let this tragedy become a reason to strengthen our emergency-response systems, especially by ensuring that our fire service is properly equipped, adequately staffed and capable of responding swiftly to emergencies.
We must protect our small businesses and ensure that Abuja, and indeed Nigeria, becomes a safer place to live, work and invest.
May God comfort every person affected by this disaster, restore the livelihoods that have been lost, and grant our emergency responders the strength and wisdom required at this difficult moment.
A safer and more prosperous Nigeria is POssible. -PO
People complain about Christianity destroying our culture: is this false alarm or legitimate claim? Should we blame it for some set backs in terms of economy? Perhaps, judeo-Christian civilization have been one the world most successful civilization in terms of technology, human right and freedom . What’s your opinion?
