Uniforms & Placards: Abuja Mother, Children Stage Protest as School Abductions Surge

Dressed in school uniforms and holding placards calling for the rescue of kidnapped pupils, a woman and her three children staged a peaceful protest in the Maitama area of Abuja over growing fears about the safety of schoolchildren.

The mother says she is now afraid to take her children to school, amid abductions linked to school runs and recent kidnapping incidents.

Speaking to our correspondent, she fought back tears as she appealed for urgent action to secure schools and ensure the release of abducted pupils.

The symbolic protest comes shortly after the rescue of the sister of a former Minister of Power, who was kidnapped while taking her children to school, and amid continued concern over pupils still being held captive following earlier abductions in parts of Oyo and Borno States

Dear young people, Jesus is our hope. Aspire to great things, to holiness, wherever you are. Do not settle for less. You will then see the light of the Gospel growing every day, in you and around you.

@SteveDedee Exactly! It’s like a mama put scene. Did you notice the crowd heading towards the plane when it landed? Wondered what they were going there to do

[Abisoye @abisi]

Jagajaga every where. Why is a mob heading towards the plane? What exactly is going on? Nigeria is too hot for this level of disorganization.

When it comes to leaving an inheritance, focus on timing, not size.

Most children would rather have an extra $100k in their 20s than an extra $500k in their 60s.

I went all out, candles, petals, flowers, not every suprise comes in a ring box. Sometimes it’s cold and fizzy in a 60cl bottle.

More Coke, More Sip, Same great taste at no extra cost.

Paybac Iboro's mixtape: omo boy, is crazy. The tape tackles his frustration with living in Tinubu's regime. He is angry, defiant and rebellious.

Paybac is easily one of the best rappers in Nigeria. I'm picking this mixtape as one of the best rap projects of 2025.

I believe Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan. Not because of anything she has said or done, but because of Godswill Akpabio’s brutish reaction and her well-oiled bullying by the senate and its president’s lackeys.

No matter who you are, if a woman accuses you of sexual harassment, there’s only one way to go if you’re innocent: create the conditions for independent investigation of the allegation, knowing the only possible outcome is your exoneration. Again, only if you’re innocent.

Her coup-like excommunication from the senate and the latest attempt by her ‘constituents’ to recall her inadvertently expose a desperate, despicable plan to shush her rather than establish the veracity of her claims. Everyone knows there are no Nigerian constituents with the time, finance, single-mindedness or effrontery to organically institute a recall process against a lawmaker for “misconduct”. The tomfoolery should stop already! How many thieving lawmakers have faced a recall for pillaging our commonwealth at our collective expense?

Everyone knows, even if not many would admit it, that someone — personally or by proxy — is the instigator-in-chief of this recall attempt. And how can that not be Akpabio, the uncommonly corrupt former governor who stole N108bn from Akwa Ibom State (according to the EFCC), attempted to arm-twist the commission into submission via the courts but failed, only to then deviously defect to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), following which the case fizzled into oblivion while he himself subsequently transmogrified into Nigeria’s third most powerful official? The relentless politically-coordinated attacks on Natasha have all the trappings of ‘maradonic’ moves with which Akpabio pulled himself out of that EFCC rabbit hole and to the helm of Nigeria’s upper chamber.

There are no two ways about it: the more Akpabio fights Natasha, the more he implicitly convinces us of his culpability. The more he fights, the more he dirties his already-soiled apparel, the more we think ‘he did it’!

Rivers State, there is ABSOLUTELY NO LAW that allows a president to SUSPEND a governor. A Governor is elected into office and may only be removed by impeachment.

Also, is Rivers state at war? Is there “actual breakdown of public order”? Is there a threat to the existence of the federation?

. @AOT2 , @OsaGz and @SteveDedee dive into the latest political shake-up as El-Rufai exits APC for SDP, the House of Reps' move to shut down porn websites nationwide, 24/7 electricity and productivity, and the NYSC controversy over social media criticism.

IBB admitting, in 2025, that MKO Abiola won the June 12 Presidential elections in 1993, is as significant as him admitting that night follows the day.

Are we supposed to clap because he told the truth after 3 decades?

Am I missing something?

[Abisoye @abisi]

@Jollz Very shameful! A bad copycat act.

[Abisoye @abisi]

@d_yinka Exactly. In 2015, I had a guy who would wash my car everyday except Sunday. Paid 5000 monthly. There would be no incentive to leave that option for this.

Kinda weird that central discourse is Lagos babes v IJGB when 30 kids died in Ibadan because they were hungry

“Nigerians are not worth fighting for.” I hear that every now and then, and I’ve always disbelieved it.

Yesterday, you proved me right. You all are the reason my detention by @HQNigerianArmy lasted ‘only’ three days. I’m a free man today because of your social media engagements with #FreeFisayoNow and the publications/broadcasts by the traditional media. And I can prove it.

After my arrest at about 2am on Wednesday, I was grilled by different levels of the Army until deep into the night. I didn’t return to my cell until at least 11pm on Wednesday. My case was then forwarded to a superior office that was to interrogate me on Thursday.

Surprisingly, Thursday was uneventful; from morning until night, this office never sent for me. I soon learnt the Army would take “as long as it wanted” to conduct their “investigation” just to establish that I was indeed an investigative journalist.

To my utmost surprise, on Friday morning, at about 11am or thereabouts, I was retrieved from my cell for transfer to the Military Intelligence Brigade (MIB). It was during the transfer that someone who ran into me asked to know my name, after which they said: “You’re the one; you’re in the news.”

Without your pressure, I’d still be in that cell by now, away from civilisation and held incommunicado. So, yes, my freedom is your freedom. This victory exists because of you, you and you. Thank you!
