I need help finding my brother - OLUWATOYIN MAKINDE💔🙏🏾

Family is everything to me and my heart just continues to ache for a brother I haven’t seen in nearly 17 years.

I have exhausted personal and private attempts. Now, I’d like to lean on community support with so much hope.

Nasarawa and Cross River may have a quiet friend in Nevada, United States.

The bond? Baryte.

With Federal Government coordination, host state readiness and community benefit, Azara in Awe LGA and Alifokpa in Yala LGA could gain visibility, jobs and shared prosperity.

PRESS RELEASE

NIGERIA POLICE FORCE CONFIRMS SAFE RESCUE OF ABDUCTED WOMAN AND HER TWIN SONS

The Nigeria Police Force announces the successful rescue of Mrs. Olaide Busayo Adegoke John-Paul and her 12-year-old twin sons, Peter and Paul, who were abducted on June 3, 2026, in Ibadan, Oyo State.

The hostages were rescued during a coordinated operation by the Force Intelligence Department Intelligence Response Team (FID-IRT) in Ibadan at approximately 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 6, 2026. Mrs. Adegoke and her children were abducted while she was driving them to school at about 7:30 a.m. on June 3, 2026.

The rescue was achieved through sustained intelligence gathering, surveillance, and tactical operations. These efforts enabled investigators to track the kidnappers’ movements, resulting in a confrontation with FID-IRT operatives.

During the confrontation, two suspected kidnappers were fatally wounded and two rifles were recovered. The victims were rescued unharmed and are now in safe custody, receiving medical care and support.

The Inspector-General of Police commends the courage, professionalism, and effectiveness of the FID-IRT operatives and all officers involved. Their resilience and commitment were instrumental in the safe rescue of the hostages.

Security operatives have intensified efforts in the area to apprehend fleeing members of the kidnapping syndicate. Preliminary intelligence indicates that some suspects escaped with gunshot injuries. Operations are ongoing to track, arrest, and bring all involved to justice.

The Nigeria Police Force appreciates the public’s support, cooperation, and patience during the operation. We remain committed to combating violent crime, protecting lives and property, and ensuring the safety of all citizens.

A very tight call 🥺

I won’t blame the CEO and neither will I condemn the employee.

It takes immense courage to make such request within 24-hrs of joining a new company.

I’d want to have a coffee chat to understand his situation and possibly explore/point him to alternatives, if I were the CEO.

I would ban motorcycles across the country and you become an enemy of the state if caught with one.

The videos I see online shows that they mostly travel on bikes to perpetuate their evil.

Sadly, many of us rely on the use of motorcycles for survival in one form or another.

Nigeria 🇳🇬 will overcome this problem 🙏

Our parents made tremendous sacrifices to complement the Law Enforcement Agencies in ensuring safe neighbourhoods while we grew. Are today’s adults/parents leaving this out of the options?

Up until 2008, these items (plus some volumes of acid at strategic locations in the compound) were daily essentials for us. Landlords on our street had timetable for night patrols. Dad spent every Xmas and New Year eve under one of the cashew trees in the compound, battle ready for any unwanted guest.

I recall always accompanying him to Ekiti State Police HQ to renew his firearms licence.

You are done for, if he visited your room at night and finds you snoozing or without your Torchlight, Iron rod and Cutlass (the bare minimum).

In his words, “Should I go for overnight church program and meet my home empty? The rest of you can go worship in Iyin. That helps me minimize any potential casualties. I will not abandon my home for who has not laboured with me. I’d instead make appropriate provisions for whoever wishes me half full”

Those who grew up in and around Adebayo - Oriire Hospital- Mojere Market - Jimoh Aliyu - Nova Sec Schl - Basiri areas of Ado Ekiti would remember the uptick in armed robberies and cultism at the time.

If neighbours were that united to eradicate theft and cultism, I think a similar or elevated approach would help a great deal with recent security concerns.

I believe you are your first line of defence. You need to stay alive first to be able to call the police for help. Please, consider every legal tool including applying (if eligible) for firearms license here https://t.co/SBkc9MABPi

May Nigeria 🇳🇬 succeed 🙏
