EnglishHow to Find the Latest Headlines and Top Stories on Premium Times
Updated
To find the latest headlines and top stories on Premium Times (premiumtimesng.com), open the homepage and look for the Headline Stories section, which lists current articles with their title, author and publication date. From there you can open any story in full, or browse by section to reach news and investigations beyond the front page.
Start with the Headline Stories section
The homepage carries a Headline Stories block that surfaces the site's current top items. Each entry shows enough to decide whether to click:
- Article title — for example, "INVESTIGATION: NUPRC fails to enforce Nigeria's anti-flaring law as methane emissions go unchecked (2)"
- Author byline — the reporter's name, such as "by Ekemini Simon"
- Publication date — for example, "October 2, 2026"
Scan the titles and dates first. If you want the newest material, sort your attention by date; if you want the biggest stories, the order within the block reflects editorial priority.
Open and read the full story
Click a headline to load the article page, where the full text appears. This works the same way for standard news reports and for long-form investigations. Multi-part investigations are labelled in the title — the NUPRC flaring story above is marked "(2)", indicating it is the second part of a series, so check for the earlier instalment if you need the background.
Read speeches and official statements in full
Premium Times publishes full texts of major speeches and statements, and these are reachable the same way as other headlines. A current example is "What Tinubu told Nigerians on 66th Independence Anniversary (FULL TEXT)". The "(FULL TEXT)" label tells you the page contains the complete address rather than a summary or excerpt, which is useful when you need the exact wording rather than reporting about it.
Browse by section or category
If you are not looking for a specific story, browse by section to see everything in a topic area rather than only what is currently promoted on the homepage. This is the practical route for:
- News — breaking and daily reporting
- Investigations — deep-dive and accountability reporting, including multi-part series
- Opinion, business, politics and other categories — depending on what the site's navigation offers at the time
Section browsing is also how you catch stories that have rotated off the homepage but are still recent.
Quick reference
| Goal | Where to go | What you will see |
|---|---|---|
| See what is trending now | Homepage → Headline Stories | Titles, authors, dates |
| Read one story in full | Click any headline | Complete article text |

Common snags
- A story you saw earlier is gone from the homepage. It has likely rotated out; use section browsing or the site's search to find it again.
- You only have part of an investigation. Check the number in the title and look for the preceding parts.
- You need the original wording of a statement. Prefer pages marked "(FULL TEXT)" over news reports summarising the same speech.
The site's own description positions it as a source for breaking news and investigative reports about Nigeria, so the Headline Stories block and the investigations section are the two places worth checking first.
