REFLECTION

Tara Hill: 

"Real compassion in leadership entails action. It is not soft or evasive. It means having the ability to confront difficult decisions with courage and directness, and make hard calls." - Essay: "Fake Compassion in Leadership: The Dangers of Avoiding Difficult Conversations."

Arc. Dr. Peter Agada, YPP Presidential Candidate:

"It is saddening and sickening that since May 15, 2026, 46 Nigerians involving tender school children and their teachers, in front of whom one of them was beheaded in horrendous bestiality, including a 19months old baby, little Christiana Akanbi, have been kidnapped by terrorists. 

"It is sickening that since then to date these innocent Nigerians have been sleeping in the jungle bush under the rains at night and hoping against hope of rescue during no less frightful excruciating hours at day.

"It is sickening that in this naked, fiery tragedy, all that Nigeria's leading presidential candidates and politicians jostling for power have been doing is to run insensitive party primaries to rule and not lead. To ruin and not build. To share goods of governance and not show direction or example. To lay hold on power for power sake and not for our nation's sake.

"It is sickening that in our kidnapped children's unimaginable purgatory and state of living-dead from one day to the other, not one of these frontline politicians have demonstrated a genuine, practical and measurable compassion to cast a glance in the direction of our heartbroken children and teachers who are dying slowly from numbing trauma in the belly of naked evil since hell relocated from hell to the forests of Oyo state on May 15.

"If only Nigerians remember well, we are where we are today as a nation locked in the throes of insecurity paralysis, fear postrate polity and mortuary economy - every kidnap victim, every bandit sacked community, every mass abduction, every brazenly murdered Nigerian and every corruption baked court judgment - because of one fact. This is the fact that Nigerians gave their overwhelming ballot capital and leadership mandate to those who did not have the genuine compassion and faith moulded courage to pick up the reins of leadership freely thrusted upon their laps in 2023. This was because their only true compassion was for self-preservation and privileged bliss of untested presidential manliness, not true nation building courage for redemption of the Nigerian people.

What are the believable guarantees that if given the mandate in 2027, for self-serving self-preservation or merely having presidential contest CV in their vanity bag, they will not throw away the ballots of millions of trusting Nigerians, and thereby sentence Nigerians to another four-year round of living-death, social-economic paralysis and mass annihilation through unmitigated bad governance?

"This is why where we are today, only those who will place Nigeria above their personal wellbeing for the ultimate goal of our country's emancipation, irrespective of which part of the country they come from, should step forward to contest for the highest office in 2027 as President of Nigeria." - Arc. Dr. Peter Agada, Presidential Candidate 2027.

United Nations (UN) Calls For Swift Release Of Kidnapped School Staff, Students In Nigeria

By Ighomuaye Lucky. O

The United Nations (UN) has called for an immediate and quick action to secure the release of students and teachers abducted by armed groups in Nigeria, stressing that schools must be protected as safe environments for learning and development.

The appeal was made in Abuja by Mr. Malick Fall, the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Nigeria, during a meeting with a delegation from the National Safe Schools Response Coordination Centre led by its Commandant, Dr. Samuel Umanah.

The discussions centered on recent incidents of school abductions, as well as ongoing efforts to support affected families, schools, and communities in Oyo and Borno states.

Fall expressed concern over the ongoing captivity of the victims and strongly condemned the violence, noting that two teachers had already been killed during the incidents.


He further said the attacks highlight the growing risks facing children, teachers, and educational settings across the country.

According to him, protecting children’s right to access education in a secure and dignified setting must remain a national priority.

He urged authorities to fully implement the Minimum Standards for Safe Schools, strengthen emergency response systems, and adopt data-driven strategies to improve school security.




“We are deeply saddened that these school children and their teachers are still being held by armed groups.


“Schools must remain safe havens for learning and not places of fear. Children should never be a target. These incidents underscore the urgent need to strengthen the protection of children, educators and learning spaces”, Fall said.



While acknowledging the efforts of government authorities and security agencies, the UN official urged stronger and more coordinated action to secure the safe and swift release of all abducted students and teachers.


He also urged authorities to ensure that the perpetrators of the attacks are brought to justice and to reinforce measures to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.

STOP THE CIRCULATION OF THE MANIPULATED SUCCESSFUL CONGRESS LIST: AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP OF LABOUR PARTY OGUN STATE CONGRESS CRIES OUT

Apagun Olaolu Samuel 

ABEOKUTA, NIGERIA -- The Labour Party, Ogun State Secretariat, wishes to set the record straight regarding the successful Congress held at the Ogun State Labour Party Secretariat on April 25th, 2026.

It has come to our attention that an unauthorized and substituted list containing erroneous names is currently being circulated to the public and media. This act is false, misleading, and intended to cause confusion within the party and among stakeholders.

For clarity and official record, the authentic and duly elected officers of the Congress are:

Chairman: Apagun Olaolu Samuel

Secretary: Tosin Ogunbamiro

Any other names being paraded as Chairman and Secretary of the April 25th Congress are fake, null, and void. They do not represent the will of the delegates nor the outcome of the congress.

We view this deliberate act of substitution as a criminal case of *conspiracy, forgery, and perjury*. The perpetrators of this dastardly act will be made to face the full weight of the law. Legal action will commence and the matter is already before the legal team.

The Labour Party remains committed to due process, transparency, and the rule of law. We urge party members, the media, and the general public to disregard the list as it was doctored to satisfy the convenience of few against the results of the Congress as monitored and observed by the INEC, Police and the DSS.

Signed,  

Apagun Olaolu Samuel 

*Ogun State Labour Party Secretariat*

Architect Dr Peter Agada on the Labour Institute of Nigeria

DR PETER AGADA 

An Institute for the Propagation and Development of the True Policies and Ideology of the Labour Party as It Currently Runs World Over_

1. MANDATE & VISION

The Labour Institute of Nigeria is established as a non-partisan policy, research, and leadership development institution dedicated to institutionalizing the core ideologies of the global labour movement within Nigeria’s democratic framework.

Modeled after the intellectual architecture that sustains Labour Parties in the United Kingdom, Australia, and other established democracies, the Institute’s mandate is to move labour politics beyond electoral cycles into permanent systems of governance, policy design, and social contract renewal.

2. CORE FUNCTIONS

The Institute operates through four pillars, drawing direct parallels with UK Labour’s ecosystem:

Pillar Function UK Equivalent

Policy Development Unit; Researches and drafts legislation on wages, decent work, social protection, industrial policy, and public services. Converts labour congress resolutions into actionable government blueprints. Labour Party Policy Forum + Resolution Foundation

Ideology & Political Education;  Develops curriculum and training for aspirants, elected officials, and union leaders on social democracy, collective bargaining, and wealth redistribution. Codifies the Nigerian Labour Charter. The Fabian Society + Socialist Educational Association

**Systems & Governance Lab; Designs internal party systems for candidate selection, ward administration, and digital democracy. Ensures transparency, anti-corruption, and zoning compliance with constitutional law. Labour Party NEC + Constitutional Arrangements Committee

International Labour Bureau** Interfaces with ILO, TUC UK, ITUC, and sister Labour Parties to domesticate global best practices on just transition, gig economy, and worker ownership. Labour International + Labour Party International Office

3. HOW IT DIFFERS FROM A REGULAR POLITICAL PARTY

A political party contests elections. The Labour Institute builds the intellectual and institutional scaffolding that makes labour governments possible and successful.

1. Policy Continuity: While party leadership may change, the Institute maintains a 20-year National Labour Development Plan covering health, education, housing, and industrialization.

2. Leadership Pipeline: Through the _LabourDirect Fellowship_, it trains 8,809 ward coordinators annually in budget analysis, community organizing, and parliamentary procedure.

3. Evidence-Based Politics: Publishes the _Annual State of Nigerian Labour Report_ using NBS, ILO, and NLC data to set national discourse, similar to the UK’s _Institute for Public Policy Research_.

4. Ideological Custodianship: Prevents policy drift by maintaining the _Labour Red Book_ — a codified set of non-negotiable principles on privatization, minimum wage, and public ownership, akin to Clause IV of the UK Labour Party Constitution.

4. THE UK MODEL: PRECEDENT FOR NIGERIA

In the United Kingdom, the Labour Party’s durability rests not just on unions, but on institutions like:

1. The Fabian Society : Drafted the original welfare state proposals that became the NHS and council housing.

2. The TUC Economics Department: Provides shadow cabinets with costed manifesto alternatives each election cycle.

3. Labour Together & Policy Network: Think tanks that stress-test policies for electability and fiscal credibility.[1884]

The Labour Institute of Nigeria adapts this tripartite model: Movement + Research + Governance. It ensures that when labour candidates win, they inherit tested systems, not empty manifestoes.

5. CURRENT PROGRAMMES 

a. #LabourDirect Platform: Digital ward congress system with 12,047 verified member endorsements, ensuring bottom-up candidate legitimacy.

b. Local Government Charter: Standardized service delivery benchmarks for all LIN-elected LGA Chairmen on primary healthcare, schools, and market infrastructure.

c. Just Transition Commission: Designing Nigeria’s framework for oil-sector decarbonization without mass job losses, in partnership with NUPENG and PENGASSAN.[2026]

6. RELATIONSHIP WITH ORGANIZED LABOUR

The Institute is accountable to the Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress through an annual _Labour Policy Conference_. NLC and TUC occupy 40% of Board seats, ensuring that policy originates from workers, not consultants.

Conclusion

The Labour Institute of Nigeria exists to answer one question: _What happens the day after a labour candidate wins?_ By building systems, training leaders, and codifying policy, it ensures that labour ideology translates into schools built, wages paid, and industries revived. It is the bridge between protest and governance.
