Nigeria Is Not Owned by Anyone—Except Those Who Build Her

  On this Democracy Day, I had intended to rest my pen. I wanted to leave the fate written on the walls of history to speak for itself. I thought perhaps the sacrifices of those who fought for democracy were enough testimony. Yet, in the final hour, a thought stirred within me, compelling me to write a message to all of us who have come together to form this sovereign nation called Nigeria. My message is particularly for those who believe that the business of Nigeria lies in the hands of a powerful few. Perhaps they are influenced by what the German sociologist Robert Michels described as the "Iron Law of Oligarchy" ,the tendency for power to concentrate in the hands of a small elite. Looking at our politics, our institutions, and our economy, one may be tempted to believe that the destiny of Nigeria is determined only by those who occupy powerful offices and influential positions. But history tells a different story. Nigeria does not belong to any president, governor, politi...

Adamawa Governor’s Close Ally Spotlights Rising Entrepreneur: The Nicholas Adebisi Story Inspiring a New Generation

 

Dr. Stephen Maduwa Warns Youths Against Waiting for Corporate Jobs


By Oriontimes Desk

A key ally of Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has drawn attention to the inspiring journey of a young Nigerian entrepreneur, Otunba Nicholas Adebisi, founder of NICHOMES Properties.

During a recent courtesy visit, Adebisi met with Dr. Stephen Maduwa, a prominent figure in Adamawa State and one of the closest associates of Governor Fintiri, to express gratitude for the enabling environment created by the state government.



Taking to his official Facebook page, Dr. Maduwa described Adebisi as “a young and determined estate entrepreneur” whose story serves as a powerful inspiration to Nigerian youths.

“Nicholas came to Yola in 2017 as a fresh NYSC corps member. Like many, he could have waited for a government or corporate job. But he saw the potential around him and decided to act.”

Rather than rely on the uncertain promise of white-collar employment, Adebisi tapped into the business-friendly climate of Adamawa State and ventured into estate and property management.

Through determination, strategic vision, and persistence, he transformed a modest beginning into a thriving enterprise. Today, he is the CEO/Managing Director of Nicho-Homes Consult, managing multiple estate layouts across Yola.

Dr. Maduwa used the opportunity to deliver a strong message to young Nigerians, urging them to abandon the mindset of waiting endlessly for corporate opportunities.

“Success does not come from waiting, it comes from creating, taking risks, and believing in your potential.”

He further encouraged youths to embrace self-development and entrepreneurship as viable pathways to success.



“Don’t wait for a job to define you. Find your passion, invest in yourself, and take that bold step.”

The recognition from a close ally of Governor Fintiri not only highlights  Adebisi’s remarkable journey but also underscores Adamawa State’s growing reputation as a fertile ground for entrepreneurship.

The story of Nicholas Adebisi remains a compelling testament to the power of initiative, resilience, and vision, qualities that continue to inspire a new generation of Nigerian entrepreneurs.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
