Full details: DSS Recaptures Ansaru Terrorist And Mastermind of Church Mass Shooting
The Department of State Services (DSS) has recaptured a top commander of the Ansari terrorist group, Abdulazeez Obadaki, believed to have masterminded the August 7, 2012 mass shooting of Christian worshippers at a Deeper Life Bible Church, near Okene, in Kogi State.
At least 19 worshippers, including the pastor were killed, with several others sustaining varying degrees of injuries after three men armed with AK-47 rifles walked into the church and opened fire on the worshippers.
Security sources said Obadaki, who, after the church mass shooting, also masterminded another attack on five commercial banks in Uromi, Edo State, was arrested, but escaped during the July 2022 jailbreak at Kuje Custodial Centre.
Security sources disclosed that the suspected terrorist leader confessed to orchestrating the Kuje Custodial centre jailbreak following his transfer from Kabba Custodial Centre in June 2022.
According to the sources, after over three years of being on the run, DSS operatives in a, well-oiled intelligence operation recaptured Obadaki aka Bomboy, on Friday morning.
This arrest comes barely two months after the secret police arraigned five suspects linked to the 2022 Catholic Church attack in Owo, Ondo State.
During the February 2022 daylight bank robberies in Uromi, Edo State, which instilled widespread fear across the region, several policemen and bank customers were killed, while hundreds of millions of Naira was reportedly carted away.
The secret police has, of recent, been recording a chain of successes in the capture of terrorists and criminal elements across the nation, with its new leadership fast-tracking the trial of the arrested suspects.
12 Christian Thieves were caught snatching phones on pedestrian of Mile 2 Lagos.
There names are:
Mr Anthony Osinachi- 21yrs.
Mr Victor Onuoha - 45yrs.
Mr Rowland Ede - 25yrs.
Mr Daniel Chisom - 24yrs.
Mr Emmanuel Chukwu - 35yrs.
Mr Ogbonnaya Uchechi - 18yrs.
Mr Godday Eke - 28yrs.
Mr Benjamin G - 30yrs
Also in 2022, the Plateau State Police Command arrested a pastor who allegedly kidnapped himself several times and demanded ransom from members of his congregation.
Before he was caught they blamed it on Muslims and Fulani herdsmen.
These are the faces of the hardened criminals responsible for kidnapping two Catholic priests from St. Vincent De Paul Parish in Pankshin, Plateau State, none of whom is a Muslim or Fulani. Shockingly, one of the kidnappers is the church’s financial secretary.
Had they not been caught, they would probably be among those shouting “Christian genocide” today, blaming Muslims and Fulani for the same crimes they committed.
People like this are the real problem, they commit atrocities, stir chaos, and even trigger reprisal attacks while pretending to be victims. Thereby causing a long enmity amongst the populace.
Sadly, you won’t see the same loud voices crying “Christian genocide” share this news because it doesn't suit the agenda.

At 65 years of independence, Nigeria reflects both resilience and structural constraints. The Nigerian Economic Society presents the Nigeria @ 65 Scorecard,
The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has said the courageous and unavoidable reforms being undertaken by the administration of President @officialABAT, which are currently fixing Nigeria’s structural weaknesses, are proof of the power of political will in economic policy.
Accordingly, he called on African nations to embrace the knowledge economy, saying it is a bridge to transform the continent’s economic growth and development through productivity, beyond outdated explanations.
The Vice President, who stated this on Tuesday in Abuja during the opening session of the 66th Annual Conference of the Nigerian Economic Society (@NESNigeria), noted that while Nigeria is not immune to the economic morass Africa had long been enmeshed in, the nation’s comforting prospect is that it currently has a President with a listening ear.
“Nigeria is, of course, not exempt from Africa’s economic tragedies. But our silver lining is the listening ear of His Excellency, President @officialABAT. Under his leadership, this administration has embarked on bold and inevitable reforms to address structural weaknesses that others before us only paid lip service to.
“These reforms testify to the power of political will in economic policy. Their painful but necessary consequences remind us that a malignant disease can only be cured by painful surgery. The wounds are temporary, but the recovery is permanent,” he stated.
