VIDEO: Police Bust Igbo Child Trafficking Syndicate Hiding Behind Hospital in Ibeju-Lekki
Operatives of the Force Intelligence Department Special Tactical Squad have uncovered an alleged child trafficking syndicate operating under the guise of a hospital in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State.
A nurse and the matron of the private hospital, Mrs. Ifeoma Ekwem and Mrs. Ngozi Ozoemena, were arrested with three stolen babies aged between one and two years. The suspects confessed to receiving payments ranging from N350,000 to N400,000 for each child.
The Lagos State Police Command has vowed to dismantle the syndicate and ensure all trafficked children are recovered and reunited with their families.

You cannot separate Christianity from Colonisation.
WATCH 🇳🇬⛏️: Footage Highlights Scale of Activities Along Bani, Kwara State to Daba Illegal Mining Corridor Near Igbeti, Oyo State
Fresh footage from the Bani axis in Kwara State, leading to the Daba illegal mining site near Igbeti in Oyo State, shows a large number of motorcycle riders operating along the route linked to illegal lithium mining activities. The motorcycles are used to transport miners, supplies, and the minerals extracted from the mining camps, underscoring the scale of operations along the corridor.
You see how almost everyone's criticism is directed to the offender and not Christianity as a religion, same should be done when it involves a Muslim (and believers of other religions). Because if a Muslim had done this, many people will push narratives, making it a religious thing and not focus on who did the wrong, and such acts fuel discrimination.
When Guinea Chose Independence Over France, France Tore Down What It Built Rather Than Leave It Behind.
In September 1958, France gave its African colonies a choice. Stay in the French Community with limited autonomy, or vote no and take full independence with nothing guaranteed in return. Every territory except Guinea chose to stay. Guinea, led by Ahmed Sekou Toure, voted no by more than 95 percent. "We prefer poverty in freedom to riches in slavery," Toure told Charles de Gaulle directly. On October 2, 1958, Guinea became the first French African colony to fully break away.
France's response was not diplomatic distance. It was deliberate destruction. Over a two month withdrawal, French officials stripped the country of everything they could carry and wrecked what they could not. They unscrewed lightbulbs from buildings. They destroyed the plans for Conakry's sewage pipeline system. They burned medicine rather than leave it for Guineans to use. Administrative files were destroyed. Public buildings were sabotaged. All financial and technical support was cut overnight, leaving Guinea without the civil servants, equipment or trained personnel needed to run a functioning state.
It did not stop there. By 1960, when Guinea launched its own currency, France's intelligence service drew up Operation Persil, a covert plan to flood Guinea's economy with counterfeit currency and trigger collapse. The plan leaked before it launched.
Cut off and isolated, Guinea turned to the Soviet Union for support and survived anyway, becoming proof that the cost of independence could be paid and the debt never owed in the first place.
The history books rarely mention what France was actually willing to destroy just to make an example out of one country saying no.
Now Burkina Faso is waiting for them.
Christianity was introduced to Africans at gunpoint.
European colonialists marched with the Bible in one hand and the gun in the other.
Many slave ships carried missionaries or chaplains who blessed voyages while millions of Africans were kidnapped, enslaved, and dehumanized.
The same institutions that preached salvation frequently conquest, genocide, rape and slavery.
Colonialism and Christianity are evil twins.
BREAKING: ‘Irigwe Nation’ Holds Mass Burial For Nine Victims Of Southern Kaduna Massacre, Including Five Children | Sahara Reporters https://t.co/jYueuJr3sp
One man, King Leopold II of Belgium, murdered an estimated 10 to 15 million Congolese people without provocation. Yet history only tells the story of Adolf Hitler.
BREAKING: The EFCC has recovered over N9.4 billion, $21.2 million, and various landed properties in an ongoing investigation into the diversion of funds meant for the turnaround maintenance of Nigeria's refineries. Including the dollar-denominated assets, total recoveries are estimated to exceed N38.66 billion.
Point of correction, we Muslims don’t pray because of worldly needs alone. And asking what a billionaire is still praying for shows a big misunderstanding of what prayer means in Islam. Salah is about submission, gratitude, and acknowledging our status as servants of the Almighty.
Wealth cannot not buy you a pass out of your obligations to the Creator. A rich man needs forgiveness, peace of mind, good health, and a favorable standing in the hereafter just like anyone else.
On that prayer mat, your net worth is zero. In fact, some of the ordinary persons behind him, might hold a higher status in the sight of the Almighty.
So, Dangote is sitting there as a servant of Allah fulfilling his ultimate purpose of why he is on earth in the first place.
Allah knows best.
