Again, untrue, the mentions in Thisday are not trivial (and I urge others to read it). They listed him as an expert on his subject. Also, his OpEd pieces were published on the back page of  Thisday, a privilege granted to only people of prominence including the current British PM and Nigeria's President. I referenced a news report from the Punch newspapers which shows that he speaks for the Nigerian President. His views are reported as the President's views. The report also shows that he engages in research on behalf of the Nigerian President. I dont know where you got the information that saharareporters is not credible when the Institute of African Studies, Carleton University, lists Penguin Award Winner, Prof. Pius Adesanmi's articles on saharareporters on his profile. If Carleton University considers it credible why shouldn't we? And on the piece criticizing him for his name not being on Trippi's website, he provided a state of Maryland notarized document from Trippi http://www.nigeriavillagesquare.com/articles/guest-articles/response-to-kennedy-emetulu.html in a piece he did as a rebuttal to the saharareporters story. But it's funny that you refuse to give saharareporters credit for reliable stories yet they are reliable enough to cite their criticism of his standing at Trippi. By the way, why do you keep saying Think Africa Press is self-published? What does that term, Self-Published, mean to you? They are not ).  They are a bona fide news media. They have an editorial board, an editor-in-chief, other writers and have interviewed prominent serving and ex-government officials all around Africa and other personalities including the http://thinkafricapress.com/article/exclusive-zambian-president-ready-eurobond-“we-hope-do-it-september” President of Zambia and pop stars. They have http://thinkafricapress.com/staff international correspondents all around Africa; Uganda, Tanzania, Zimbabwe to mention a few. And they are domiciled in the UK, so again how do you mean self-published
