Hello everyone, please, I urgently need your help and attention. My sister and other NYSC corps members who left Bayelsa State yesterday were attacked along the Kogi Express Road. Sadly, the driver was killed, and the corps members were reportedly taken into the forest.
Up until now, we have not heard from them, and the family is deeply worried and devastated. We have contacted the police, but unfortunately, we have not received any positive feedback yet.
Please, I am appealing to the NYSC, the Federal Government, security agencies, and everyone who can help to urgently intervene and do everything possible to rescue them safely.
Please, we don’t want anything to happen to our loved ones. . They are someone’s children, siblings and loved ones. Their lives matter.
Please help us amplify this message and tag the relevant authorities. We are begging for urgent action before it is too late.

Oh, You rescue the souls of men.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
I never understood how people could quote Scripture even in the simplest conversations until I started studying the Word for myself.
The more you know the Word, the more it becomes the source of your knowledge, and your frame of reference.
You start seeing life through It.
I am a Northern girl. But I am not the Northern girl you imagined.
When people hear “Northern Nigeria,” many immediately picture a Muslim Hausa woman.
That woman exists.
But so do I.
I am a Northern girl. I am Christian. I am not Hausa. I am Laka/Godogodo.
And sometimes explaining that feels like I am introducing myself three times before people finally understand where I come from.
The problem is that Northern Nigeria has been reduced to one religion, one language, one culture and one kind of woman.
But the North is not one people.
There are Christians. Traditionalists. Muslims. Indigenous ethnic groups. Minority languages. Women who wear hijab and women who don’t. Women who grew up in churches. Women who grew up in mosques. Women whose grandparents spoke languages most Nigerians have never even heard of.
We exist.
And I think one reason many people don’t know we exist is because we haven’t told our stories loudly enough.
So yes, I am a Northern girl.
Just not the version of Northern Nigeria you were taught to imagine.

This soul will not have time for
What will I drink
What will I eat
What will I wear
Such&such doesn’t like me
Church hurt me
You didn’t greet me
When will I marry
What if I die
Nigerian Govt redemption
Chasing flesh in d name of prophecy
..This soul is busy panting for the Lord
Driving home, 2011. Checkpoint. Drunk policeman.
3 gun shots, one bullet punched through my car boot into my right hand.
That hand once edit, animated, paid bills and fed my family. Overnight it became dead weight.
Career gone. Marriage cracked. Mind still bleeding daily.I sued the Nigeria Police.
2015: Federal High Court ordered them to fund reconstructive surgery to restore my life.
Eleven years later: zero naira, zero apology, zero accountability.
I still can’t fully use the hand they destroyed. Still begging strangers so I don’t lose it forever.
The Nigeria Police that shot me ignores the court. Who protects the rest of us?

Again, I stand with my opinion that issues of sexual assault should not be settled in the church!
Church should hand it over to the authorities. It's a criminal offence and should be treated as such.
