I loved working with Ismail Alfa, @ismaaga6 & @YagazieEmezi on this – an intimate look at one family in Nigeria, how they arrived at six children, and how they manage. The latest in @nytimes' Old World, Young Africa series. nytimes.com/2024/10/21/wor…


I traveled to Majiya, Jigawa State, to report on the devastating tanker explosion that claimed the lives of over 160 people, for @nytimes With @ElianPeltier nytimes.com/2024/10/17/wor…


Reality check It is no longer a story that the luxuries we could afford last year have become today's pipe dreams. The harsh truth is our economy has taken a devastating hit on us all and we're all feeling the pinch. It's time we face the reality, that we are poor!


Happy birthday, scholar @Sani_Scholar

Inspiring!

They often say, some opportunities come once in a lifetime, and, this time, last year I was wondering if I had wasted a life-changing opportunity to attend one of the prestigious institutions in the world, University of Cambridge, on a full-ride academic scholarship offer.

Riverboat accidents are a recurring issue in Nigeria, a West African nation where overloading, lax safety regulations, the absence of life jackets and poor maintenance often lead to deadly incidents. nytimes.com/2024/10/02/wor…


God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

A schoolteacher in Maiduguri woke up at 5 a.m. to the sound of her neighbors shouting. When she opened her front door, she was greeted by the sight of rising waters outside. “We saw — water is coming,” said the teacher, Aishatu Bunu. nytimes.com/2024/09/15/wor…

“ Nigerians struggling to afford food and earn a living have taken to the streets in nationwide protests that have already left at least 13 people killed, according to Amnesty International.”

Nigerians risk their lives to protest an increasingly dire economic situation. With reporting from Ismail Alfa, @ismaaga6, Pius Adeleye and @nelsoncj3 nytimes.com/2024/08/02/wor…

A child got shot in Kano!!


There is a fierce firestorm on the streets of Kano. Protesters have begun to turn back home vehicles that do not display any signs of participation in the protest. If you are in Kano and plan to move around, please get a leaflet and display it prominently on your vehicle.


I just saw this man heading to the protest meeting point in Kano. I've never seen responsible elderly people join a protest in Kano before.
