The Vanguard is a daily newspaper published by Vanguard Media, based in Lagos, Nigeria.
Vanguard Media was established in 1983 by veteran journalist Sam Amuka-Pemu with three friends. The paper has an online edition. The newspaper is one of the few in Nigeria that is considered independent of political control, the others being Thisday, The Punch, The Sun and The Guardian. In June 1990, the paper was briefly suspended by Col. Raji Rasaki, Military Governor of Lagos State.
In December 2008 the US-based Pointblanknews.com published a story that alleged the wife of the publisher of Vanguard Newspapers was involved in a ritual killing. The Vanguard took the reporter to court, claiming he was attempting extortion. In December 2009, a Niger Delta peace activist commended Vanguard Newspapers for its reporting on the government's intentions, which he said helped persuade the militants to accept amnesty.
Ulmus 'Morton Plainsman' (selling name Vanguard™) is a hybrid cultivar raised by the Morton Arboretum from a crossing of the Siberian Elm U. pumila (female parent) and a specimen of the Japanese Elm U. davidiana var. japonica grown from openly-pollinated seed donated by the Agriculture Canada Research Station at Morden, Manitoba.
Vanguard has modest upright growth, increasing in height by an average of 0.8 m in an assessment at U C Davis, with leaves much the same size and colour of the American Elm. However, its performance in the southern United States has not impressed, and it was dismissed, along with its Morton stablemates Commendation and Triumph, as "ugly" by Michael Dirr, Professor of Horticulture at the University of Georgia , on account of its "wild" growth and splaying branches.
Although resistant to Dutch elm disease, Vanguard remains very susceptible to pests such as the elm-leaf beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola , Japanese beetle, and cankerworms.

Keywords: sequel, transforming-robotThe sky shall fall on me from high above
The earth shall swallow me from down below
The fire will follow me until I'm ash
The seas encircle me until I'm with the flow
Recoil in searing pain
Release all hope and fear
Reject the myth and lies
Rejoice - immortal sin
The hails will batter me until I'm gone
The storms will chase me throughout my path
The typhoid strikes me when I'm on my knees
The swarms engulf me until I am out of breath
Can you be the same
Will you take the blame
Can you bow in shame
Will you call his name
