Guardian Prime (GP) is a comicbook character. The characer was created by Comic Republic creators Jide Martin and Wale Awelenje as one of three proposed flagship characters for the venture.
Guardian Prime appeared for the first time in comic strips attached to movie flyers in Nigerian cinemas.[citation needed]
Subsequently, he appeared in Might Of Guardian Prime Issue 1, produced by Martin, Michael Balogun, and Ezeogu brothers Ozo and Tobe..[1]
Martin described his motivation to create the character: "I saw that Nigeria was filled with so much negativity. This hero [was] designed to give us faith to see that our actions and words could indeed make a difference and throw a positive light on Nigeria to a global audience".[2]
Jide described GP as a character designed as a moral role model. [3]

Born in Lagos, Nigeria, to Nigerian parents, Tunde Jaiye is the son of Danjuma Jaiye, a military general, and Evelyn Jaiye, a businesswoman. His baby sister is Chichi.
Tunde lived a sheltered life, believing in compassion and protecting the weak. When he becomes an adult, he learns that he is a Guardian. Guardians are tasked with protecting the human race, as ordained by Gaia, the Goddess of the Earth.
Every 2000 years, a new guardian is born. Depending on the state of the world, some guardians live out their entire lives without ever knowing who they really are. Their powers manifest only when they are needed most.
