Press Release

Press Release June 12, 2024

Nigeria's first-ever digital-age Who-is-Who publication, with input from as many Nigerians as possible, is hereby announced. It is The 2025 Nigerian Who-is-Who. Biographies of some 40,000 Nigerians are already being compiled for publications beginning from October 1, 2024. Up to two million copies of the epochal publication are expected to be downloaded online and distributed offline.

The 2025 Nigerian Who-is-Who publication will be Nigeria's first-ever comprehensive digital-age multimedia biographical compilation, available offline as a portable App and live online. The publication will contain updatable biographies of scores of thousands of notable Nigerians from all fields of human endeavour and anywhere on Earth in the last 200 years.

Do you remember the several hundreds of thousands of special free disk inserts distributed with copies of The Nation newspaper in 2009? That was the primer to what seems set today to be Nigeria's most voluminous digital-age biographical publication 15 years later. The coming publication has already exceeded 30,000 pages, yet every word it contains is searchable.

The Who-is-Who Publication Project has now just been thrown open online and offline for additional input from as many Nigerians as are interested in ensuring that today's notable Nigerians document for tomorrow their presence here and now, along with the most remarkable of their efforts and attainments. The Project also targets those Nigerians desirous of giving worthy documentation of the labours and strides of their forebearers who laboured hard but never lived long enough to enjoy the fruits of their labour. Many forebearers never had their efforts and legacies documented in any lasting form for tomorrow. The Nigerian Who-is-Who Project effectively offers an opportunity to at least document notable and monumental efforts today as well as the labours of our heroes and heroines, even long after they may have departed this earthly plane.

Nigeria today has one of the smallest footprints on international digital-age biography platforms despite having a population of more than 200 million people and an almost 170-year-old documented media history. The absence of verified or verifiable biographical references on Nigerians is one of the reasons for the sad situation. This publication begins to fill in the gaps in the documentation of the biographies of notable Nigerians. Verified biographies in the publication will easily qualify many Nigerians for listing in the global international Who-is-Who publications and other global biography platforms from 2025.
