Story of the Ikeja Bomb Blast — January 27, 2002

On a day like this, 27 January 2002, a devastating explosion rocked the Ikeja Military Cantonment in Lagos, changing Nigeria forever.

What started as a fire outbreak inside the military armory triggered a series of massive explosions, throwing the city into chaos and fear. Many residents thought Nigeria was under attack or that a coup was underway.

The blast was heard and felt up to 30 miles away. Tremors collapsed homes and shattered windows as far as 10 miles from the epicenter.

According to the Red Cross, at least 1,000 bodies were recovered, while many others were reported missing and never found.
Over 5,000 people were injured, and more than 12,000 residents were left homeless, with entire neighborhoods destroyed.

In panic, about 20,000 people fled Lagos on the night of the explosion. Survivors gradually returned over the following week to scenes of loss and devastation.

Military reports later stated that the disaster was caused by a bomb that detonated inside the armory, setting off other stored explosives.

In a moment that remains unforgettable, President Olusegun Obasanjo visited the Ikeja Cantonment barefoot, addressing victims and assessing the damage firsthand.

The Ikeja Bomb Blast remains one of the deadliest peacetime disasters in Nigerian history.

Read. Remember. Retweet to educate someone.

About two weeks after I arrived in Lagos, I was still looking for a job. Everything felt new and strange—so different from my hometown. People moved fast, streets looked unfamiliar, and I didn’t know anyone. I was jobless, tired, and weak from not working, but I refused to give up.

I called one of my in-laws, Hassan, and we decided to check a construction site for work. We searched and searched, but nothing worked out.

On our way back, we passed another site and saw some older men sitting on wooden timbers, using blades to cut their hands and applying some kind of traditional medicine. They waved at us to come closer.

I told Hassan, “Don’t go near them. We have no business there.”

But I, feeling bold, stepped forward on my own. I didn’t look back.

Suddenly, a huge stick hit my shoulder. My heart sank—I was terrified. I dropped to my knees and pleaded,
“Please… I was just scared of what you were doing. That’s why I didn’t join!”

After that, they finally let me go.

Even today, I cannot forget that moment—the fear, the pain, and the relief all mixed together. It was my first real lesson in how unpredictable life in Lagos can be. #LagosLife #CityStories #SurvivalInLagos #JobHustle #NewCityAdventures #FearAndRelief #LifeLessons

Did Graceland Polytechnic Scam Its Graduates? How Fake Admissions, Missing JAMB Records and Delayed Accreditation Are Destroying Students’ Futures in Kwara State

How can a student graduate with a Distinction and a CGPA of 3.72—only to be told years later that his admission never officially existed? This troubling question now surrounds Graceland Polytechnic, Offa, Kwara State, where dozens of National Diploma (ND) graduates say their academic journeys have been invalidated by alleged fake admissions and unaccredited programmes.

One Mass Communication graduate, who completed his studies in 2022, believed his strong performance would naturally lead to HND or Direct Entry admission into a university. But when he visited the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) office in Ilorin, he was shocked to learn that his name was missing from CAPS and all official admission platforms. According to JAMB officials, the polytechnic had never uploaded his admission for validation—meaning, on paper, he had never been admitted at all.

Was this an administrative oversight—or a systemic failure that misled students for years? The graduate said repeated attempts to seek clarification from his department and ICT unit led nowhere, forcing him to abandon his dream of further education.

Other graduates tell similar stories. A student identified as Stephen described years of fear, uncertainty, and emotional exhaustion as his future remained frozen. Another, Kenny, said he gave up entirely on academics after realizing that his ND certificate lacked recognition, choosing business over a degree that institutions would not accept.

The crisis appears to go beyond one department. Graduates from Science and Laboratory Technology (SLT) revealed that accreditation was only granted after many students had already graduated or attempted to progress, rendering their certificates useless for further studies. Students allege that despite repeated assurances from management that programmes such as Mass Communication, SLT, Accountancy, and Computer Science were fully accredited, many were not.

Did students unknowingly spend years paying fees for programmes that had no official standing? A leaked audio recording deepened concerns, with a former Head of Department allegedly advising students to abandon hopes of HND or Direct Entry and to use their ND only for employment—or start afresh through JAMB.

While the school was approved by the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) in 2019 after being founded in 2013, the Registrar has admitted that accreditation for some courses only came in early 2025, excluding earlier graduates. He acknowledged the students’ suffering but described the situation as one inherited from past management.

For affected graduates, the issue goes beyond paperwork. They speak of stolen years, broken trust, wasted finances, and futures unfairly placed on hold. Many are now calling on regulatory authorities to investigate the institution, warning that without accountability, more young Nigerians may fall victim to what they describe as an education scam disguised as opportunity.

Is this merely a case of poor administration—or a deeper failure in Nigeria’s education oversight system?

VDM Calls Out President Tinubu Over Failed Scholarship Promises to Nigerian Students in Morocco

Nigerian activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman (VDM), has publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi Tinubu, over the deteriorating conditions some Nigerian students are reportedly facing in Morocco. The students, granted scholarships by the Nigerian government, were promised full support including a $500 monthly allowance, and were allegedly instructed not to work while studying.

In a video shared online, VDM revealed that some students have suffered serious consequences due to the government’s alleged failure to deliver on these promises. He claimed that one student died while another sustained a broken leg after attempting to work secretly to survive. He also highlighted the poor state of their accommodation, where up to five students were crammed into rooms meant for one, lacking electricity and proper study facilities.

VDM warned that if students continue to be neglected, they may resort to cybercrime, which could negatively impact Nigeria’s international image. He also alleged that attempts by students to reach out to influencers and media houses were met with demands for money before their stories could be shared.

The activist called on the government to intervene urgently and suggested that funds meant for students may have been embezzled. VDM’s video has received praise from fans who expressed outrage at the government’s inaction and applauded his advocacy for the students’ rights.

This incident underscores ongoing concerns about government accountability in managing scholarship programs and protecting Nigerian students abroad, and it adds to VDM’s history of activism, which includes previous solo protests addressing national insecurity issues.
