According to reports, these are the alleged demands made by the k!dnappers:
1. ₦1 billion to be paid into an account in the Benin Republic.
2. Release of other bandits currently held in Agodi and Abolongo Prisons.
3. Two Hilux vehicles.
4. Amendment of certain Oyo State laws to suit their interests.
If you were Governor Seyi Makinde, would you agree to negotiate under these conditions?
Our language around governance is so interesting in Nigeria. We talk like when someone wins an election, the money and resources of the state become their personal largesse and any progress or work that happens is because they’re kind enough to “dash” us.
PRESS RELEASE
OGUN POLICE COMMAND ARRESTS ANOTHER SUSPECT OVER FALSE SECURITY ALERT AND FAKE NEWS, WARNS AGAINST SPREAD OF MISINFORMATION
The Ogun State Police Command has arrested one Mr. Johnson Elleh for producing and circulating a misleading video falsely alleging kidnapping and banditry activities along the Owode-Idiroko axis of Ogun State.
Upon receipt of the viral video, the Command immediately subjected its contents to scrutiny and commenced a swift investigation to verify the claims contained therein. Findings revealed that the video was false, misleading, and deliberately designed to create fear, panic, and anxiety among members of the public. Extensive investigation and verification further established that there was no kidnapping or banditry incident as portrayed in the video within the Owode-Idiroko axis or its environs.
Further investigation revealed that the suspect was featured in the video and was subsequently identified by detectives, leading to his arrest. Preliminary findings indicate that he deliberately fabricated and circulated the false narrative for attention and content creation purposes. His actions were capable of causing unnecessary public alarm, disrupting social order, and undermining public confidence in the security architecture of the State.
During the course of the investigation, the suspect reportedly confessed to intentionally creating and disseminating the misleading content to generate online engagement and public reaction. Investigation is ongoing, and the suspect will be charged to court upon conclusion of the investigation.
The Ogun State Police Command strongly condemns the deliberate spread of fake news, false security alerts, and other forms of misinformation capable of causing fear, panic, and confusion among law-abiding citizens. The Command hereby issues a stern warning to individuals and groups engaged in the creation, publication, recirculation, or dissemination of unverified security-related information that such acts constitute a threat to public peace and security and will attract the full weight of the law. The Command will continue to identify, arrest, investigate, and prosecute all persons found culpable, irrespective of status or motive.
The Command acknowledges the concerns of residents who may have been alarmed by the misleading video and wishes to reassure the public that Ogun State remains safe, peaceful, and secure. Residents are encouraged to remain calm, continue their lawful activities without fear, and rely solely on verified information disseminated through official channels. The Command remains steadfast in its commitment to protecting lives and property and maintaining public order across the State.

They’d say “Tinubu has betrayed him and he wants to redeem himself” 😂
I feel the obidients should do a massive crowdfunding, and start up a cinema
“Obidient Cinemas”, it could potentially rival Genesis or Silverbird
To God be the glory! 🙏🏽✨
Yesterday marks a significant milestone as my twin sister and I were officially inducted into the medical profession.
Grateful for God's grace, our family, mentors, and everyone who supported us through this journey.

We need to talk directly to the irresponsible parents who keep having children with no means of taking care of them.
Leaving them to roam the streets as almajiri.
Thats where the problem starts.
Tinubu has failed woefully on security. Bring back the people of Oriire community‼️

I had never and would never understand the manner of people that become president of NANs
The leadership mirrors exactly the state of national politics
O lagbara
'You are not a student, students have matriculation number'
Comrade Femi Adeyeye @activistfemi the former AAC national publicity secretary and a member of @TIBmovement puts the 'president' of NANS in his place🤣🤣🤣
Buhari was our best chance at fighting this war.
Instead he went on to introduce rehabilitation. Possibly out of empathy for his tribesmen
He fumbled really badly sha.. argh !
@bosuntijani
Why is Nigeria not operating an Amber Alert system?
What support are you giving the security system?
I admire the effort with 3MTT and other initiatives
But there are hot burning issues that need your support! Do something, AI camera whatever ! Do something !
The most painful thing about Nigeria’s security crisis is having Bosun Tijani @bosuntijani , the guy who, with his friend Iyinoluwa Aboyeji @iAboyeji , claimed to know all the solutions as the most useless minister in President Tinubu’s cabinet.
He knew the problems before appointment, yet he’s delivered nothing.
Terrorists all over the media space and he remained silent, sleeping and snoring!
Too many loudmouths on X run their mouths about governance, only to become silent and useless once they get a seat at the table.
This season too shall pass.
