We proudly feature Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey, Ghana’s iconic Foreign Affairs Minister, who has taken on the prestigious role of Commonwealth Secretary General. Her appointment signals a new dawn for Africa on the international stage, as leaders unite to address pressing issues.
In a historic move, Nigeria and 12 other nations have joined BRICS, igniting conversations about global equity and reforming international institutions to better reflect the needs of developing nations. At the summit in Kazan, leaders are calling for peace amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, reminding us of our shared responsibility for stability and collaboration.
This volume also sheds light on the vital discussions at the Commonwealth summit regarding reparations for the transatlantic slave trade. A landmark document signed by 56 heads of government, including UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, acknowledges the urgent need for conversations about reparatory justice, despite attempts to sideline the topic.
As we approach the November 5th U.S. elections, tensions rise with candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris making last-minute moves to sway voters. We examine the legal complexities surrounding Elon Musk’s $1 Million Election Giveaway, offering an insightful analysis of this unprecedented political climate.
In our health segment, we report on Germany’s first case of a new Mpox variant and the alarming fivefold rise in whooping cough cases in the U.S., highlighting the ongoing global health challenges we face.
Amidst these pressing issues, we celebrate resilience and innovation with the inspiring story of Swamidwa Habidadi, a remarkable 24-year-old agro entrepreneur from Burkina Faso. Overcoming childhood adversities, she now thrives with hundreds of livestock and vast agricultural lands, embodying the spirit of determination.
Our team in Ghana explores the country’s rich cultural landscape, focusing on the fascinating tradition of elaborate burials that transform towns into vibrant festivals of mourning every weekend. This deep cultural reflection illustrates the profound connections that bind communities together.
Additionally, we are thrilled to feature Ugonma Ogbonnaya, crowned Miss Diaspora Nigeria 2024 Top Model, on our Diva page, celebrating the achievements of our diaspora’s trailblazers.

As Nigeria commemorates its 64th Independence anniversary, the stark contrast between celebration and the persistent challenges of corruption, mismanagement, and unfulfilled promises becomes evident.
The editorial revisits historical attempts at reform, such as the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission’s (ICPC) prosecutions and the House of Representatives’ inquiry into the unfulfilled $14.5 million aircraft repair contract. Many of these initiatives have faded from public memory, leaving questions about accountability unresolved.
High-profile corruption cases, including the Halliburton scandal involving alleged bribes of $180 million, highlight systemic failures within the political landscape.
The editorial emphasizes the need for collective action from citizens, civil society, and the media to demand transparency and accountability. It warns that without addressing these entrenched failures, Nigeria’s path toward democracy and good governance may continue to be fraught with unfulfilled promises.
