This Day is a Nigerian national newspaper. It is the flagship newspaper of Leaders & Company Ltd., and was first published on 22 January 1995. It has its headquarters in Apapa, Lagos State.[1] Founded by Nduka Obaigbena, the chairman and editor-in-chief of the This Day Media Group and Arise News.

This Day is a member of the Belt and Road News Network.[2] Since 2014, it has maintained a close relationship with the Chinese embassy.[3]

This Day publisher Nduka Obaigbena has previously been criticised for late and non-payment of the paper's staff and suppliers.[4]

In 2001, several This Day editors survived a plane crash at Maiduguri airport in North East Nigeria.[5][6]

In 2012, This Day's offices in the nation's capital Abuja, and in Kaduna were attacked in suicide car bombings thought to have been carried out by terrorist group Boko Haram.[7][8]
