Update, the students are release without paying a dime after intervention from higher authorities.
Thanks

And everyone that help like and repost.
@SweetAlamu@thisisAkinola Because they’re useless and don’t work, that’s why it’s easy to mobilize their women to do this hungry job for Alfa to survive… 😣😔
See how your Lawless officers are breaking into students hostels for illegal arrest but as usual Ilorin police HQ will stay silent or go back there to silence the victims after this video get to mainstream… @PoliceNG_CRU@Kwarapolice_CRU@Kwara_PoliceNG@TunjiDisu1@aleeygiwa
Dear @Kwara_PoliceNG,
We demand answers regarding an alleged operation by an IGP Squad from Ilorin in a student hostel in Offa this Monday morning. Officers reportedly went from room to room knocking on doors, and some students who opened their doors allege they were harassed and extorted.
Is this operation authorized? Under what legal basis are students being subjected to this? We urge the Kwara State Police Command to investigate these allegations and publicly clarify what happened. Students deserve safety and accountability.

@TheYorubaTimes I was born Muslim but had to switch to our traditional way due to contradictions and hate towards others…
Islam is well respected religion before but now people can even tear…
Saturday Ifá Stories & Proverbs
Today's Odu: Ògúndá Méjì
Welcome to first Saturday Ifá Stories & Proverbs, where we learn practical life lessons from the wisdom of Ifá.
Today's Odu: Ògúndá Méjì
Ògúndá Méjì is often associated with courage, hard work, determination, discipline, and the power of truthful action. It reminds us that success is not built on wishes alone it comes through consistent effort, patience, and good character (Ìwà Pẹ̀lẹ́).
One of its central teachings is that strength without wisdom can create unnecessary conflict. A person may be powerful, but true victory comes from knowing when to act, when to speak, and when to exercise patience.
Life Lesson
Many people pray for open doors but give up when challenges appear. Ògúndá Méjì teaches that obstacles are not always signs to stop; sometimes they are opportunities to develop resilience and prove your commitment.
The person who keeps working with honesty and discipline often reaches places that talent alone cannot.
Yoruba Proverb
Sùúrù ni baba ìwà.
Meaning: Patience is the father of good character.
Patience is not weakness. It is the wisdom to wait for the right time while continuing to do what is right.
Discussion
What lesson from Ògúndá Méjì speaks to you the most?
Share your thoughts. Let's learn from one another with respect and good character.

They spent years calling Messi “FIFA’s boy.” But when a 39-year-old Messi—who can no longer run endlessly or press like he once did—still scored, assisted, created chances, controlled games, and carried Argentina to another World Cup final, suddenly the standards changed.
If Rodri wins the Golden Ball after a tournament where he barely decided games, then what more was Messi supposed to do? He scored, assisted, led his nation again, and was the defining player of the tournament.
The World Cup Golden Ball is supposed to reward the player who defines the tournament. For me, that player was Lionel Messi.
Ironically, the same people who spent years claiming FIFA always favored Messi may have helped create the opposite outcome. It feels as if FIFA became so wary of the endless “FIFA’s boy” accusations and the constant outrage and memes on X that they went the other way. I can’t prove that’s what happened, but it’s hard not to wonder if the noise influenced the decision.
Whether that’s true or not, one thing doesn’t change: at 39 years old, Messi once again showed the world why he is the greatest footballer of all time. No award can take that away. ❤️🐐
