Uncounted in Life, Unrecorded in Death: Nigeria’s Costly Dignity Deficit By Lawson Akhigbe
here is an old, bitter administrative joke in Nigeria that you are only formally counted twice: never when you arrive, and certainly not when you leave. In between, your existence is largely an unverified rumor negotiated between your creator, your luck, and whatever age declaration affidavit you paid a court clerk two thousand Naira to stamp. -
Coordinator of fake agency shares appointment letter bearing OSGF letterhead
Tinubu also ordered the immediate suspension of three permanent secretaries allegedly linked to the operation of the fake agency and ordered the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to conduct an investigation into its formation and operation. -
There's a particular kind of doublespeak where a policy is framed as protecting people from a danger the policy itself created. Unwinding the logic takes longer than reading the headline, and by the time you have, the moment has already passed.

A machine that cuts metal and injures the operator did what it was built to do. The fault sits with whoever removed the guard or ran the line outside its parameters. Nobody blames the lathe. Execution keeps getting more autonomous. Accountability did not go with it.

When Laws Become Optional: Suspicious Deaths, Colonial Legacies, and the Dignity Deficit in Nigeria by Lawson Akhigbe
The difference between the United Kingdom and Nigeria is not primarily in the letter of the law. It is in the general application and consistent enforcement of that law. This divergence reveals a deeper reality about how the Nigerian state relates to its citizens. -
One of the things that has to be established in law with respect to AI is responsibility and accountability.
No hiding behind the software.
Some individual has to be held ultimately responsible for every decision and action by an AI. -
Your senators are within driving distance for thirty-five days. That is not a vacation. That is a venue. What are you going to ask yours, and where are you going to ask it?

Who is funding Remi Tinubu’s donations? By Baba Martins
When Senator Oluremi Tinubu mounted the altar during the inter-denominational church service at the National Christian Centre in Abuja on the eve of the inauguration of the then president-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu and gracefully announced that she would be one of the oldest first ladies in Nigeria, not many knew she would also go down in history as one of the most influential wives of presidents.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/23/who-is-funding-remi-tinubus-donations-by-baba-martins/

The Inquisitor’s Gavel: Oshiomhole, MOWAA, and the High Cost of Political Spite by Lawson Akhigbe
Central to the indictment was the breathless lamentation over the demolition of the old Benin Central Hospital. Listening to the rhetoric, one would assume the facility was a pristine sanctuary of modern medicine arbitrarily flattened to make way for art. -
You Cannot Affirm Your Way Around the Inner Work
A gentle but honest conversation about spiritual bypassing and why affirmations, positivity, and spiritual practices cannot replace the deeper work of healing. This blog explores the importance of understanding our emotions, recognizing our triggers, having honest conversations about grief, fear, pain, and hurt, and taking loving accountability for how we show up in the world.https://angelblessings11.com/2026/08/22/you-cannot-affirm-your-way-around-the-inner-work/

Consequence has become optional in places where it used to be assumed. Once it happens without cost the first time, it stops being the exception and becomes the baseline everyone quietly plans around.

The admin didn't hide it — they admitted in court they cut research grants based on which states voted Harris. Documented corruption is still corruption. By @bledewitz.bsky.social

Blessing Agbebaku: From Suspension to Speakership — And Back Into the Political Storm
Yesterday’s political victim can become tomorrow’s political kingmaker. Yesterday’s opposition politician can become tomorrow’s occupant of the very office controlled by the political establishment he once opposed. -
The Decentralized Rifle: Can Nigeria Survive State Policing? By Lawson Akhigbe
We are told this is the silver bullet for our security paralysis. But as Nigeria stands on the precipice of altering Section 9 and dismantling Item 45 of the Exclusive Legislative List, we must ask: Are we solving a modern security crisis, or are we reawakening old ghosts that once broke the back of our democracy? -
