‘The idea for Layers of Time and Place: What Lies Beneath’ emerged from Abraham Oghobase’s first trip to Jos in 2017. The large man-made ponds and lakes, which form a prevalent part of the modern landscape of the city of Jos and its surrounding areas, were visually striking.
Expression is one of the most accessible forms of civic power we have. It breaks down complex policy into human stories, turns silent frustration into a movement, and builds bridges where walls used to stand.
Ta-Nehisi Coates said, “You can’t talent your way to writing. It’s built. It’s a built thing. It’s a made thing. So the real thing you got to do is you got to come back to that bad writing and you’ve got to revise.”
Like James Baldwin said, “I’m not a writer. I’m a re-writer.”

At times of thinking freedom you remember great philosophers of all time who used music, like Fela and Bob Marley. Don’t gag me, jemwitemi, Fela sang. Power fears truth. If Nigeria needs any thing now it is those who can speak the truth. It is redemption song time
Today, GoNigeria releases a statement calling on every eligible Nigerian, particularly the millions of young people who have turned 18 since the last general election, to register to vote before the 24 July 2026 deadline.
Over the past few weeks, GoNigeria has been actively engaging young Nigerians through sustained on-the-ground outreach and across a range of media and digital platforms to make voter registration information more accessible. This work will continue in the days ahead.
While voter registration is the immediate priority, it is only one part of GoNigeria's broader mission, anchored by our four foundational pillars: electoral reform, the protection of freedom of speech, judicial reform, and the security of life and property.
I encourage you to read the full statement. If you are eligible to vote, please register before the deadline. If you know someone who is eligible but has not yet registered, encourage them to do the same.
