HEK: Intelligence for decision-makers
Power moves rarely announce themselves. They appear as filings buried in documents, quiet share purchases, unexpected capital raises.
HEK follows a curious trail: six relatives of Aradel Holdings’ MD collectively acquiring ₦205.5 million in shares. Access Bank moved again, topping up ₦40 billion in fresh capital.
In another corner, NNPCL’s long-awaited stock market debut inched closer, a development that could recalibrate Nigeria’s oil and gas narrative entirely.
Everything may look procedural on paper, but is it?
HEK doesn’t shout. It signals. And the people who move first are always the ones who see the signal first.
TIPPING POINT: Where small shifts become big changes
The whispers around recapitalisation are turning into a roar. Nigeria’s largest banks look steady.
Mid-tier players, not so much. Beneath the surface of balance sheets and press releases, tensions are building. Is this a reset that strengthens the system, or the moment cracks begin to show?
Tipping Point doesn’t wait for the verdict.
It tracks the tremors, the quiet anxieties, the subtle repositioning happening behind the scenes, before the numbers on the screen turn red or green.
BRIEFINGS ON THE MARGIN: The edges today, the centre tomorrow
Big stories often start small and far away from the spotlight. Nigeria’s stubborn debt premium.
TotalEnergies cautiously returns to Mozambique. A proposed ₦73 trillion refinery in Ondo that barely made the rounds in mainstream conversation. Rwandan traders quietly chose Mombasa over Dar es Salaam.
A patent showdown between Ericsson and Transsion that could reshape Africa’s smartphone market.
Each of these seems distant. None of them is insignificant. Briefings on the Margin connects the dots others overlook, from seafood export chains to energy, trade routes, and intellectual property wars, long before they become headline news.
WHO IS THINKING FOR NIGERIA: Tracking the minds shaping the nation
Last week’s conversations asked uncomfortable, powerful questions: Can alumni associations succeed where Nigeria’s education system is failing? Where is the credible opposition that can safeguard democracy?
Will Nigerian businesses miss the AI chatbot revolution, or can they still catch the wave? Is the Lagos–Calabar coastal highway an economic catalyst, or simply misunderstood? What happens to food security when transport collapses? And how do Tinubu’s economic reforms truly touch the average Nigerian?
This is not just a summary of opinions. It is a map of influence, a snapshot of the thinkers, arguments, and ideas quietly shaping tomorrow’s policies.
Signals. Shifts. Minds.
Not all tremors shake the world, but some quietly shape it.
