“Lagos has broken my German brain. Lagos is so confusing. What do you mean I go out and see chickens, cows and goats just running around, and at the same time you have mega bridges and everything is lighting up at night like New York City? Then you have crazy nightclubs with pools. How does this place feel like the smallest village I have ever been to and also the biggest city I have ever been in at the same time?”
— German lady says. 😂🇳🇬
“My relatives, I will not be afraid of you; I had better tell you this. Whoever gets kidnapped in the bush and is later released will say it was Fulanis who kidnapped him,” he said.
“So, you should warn your children who are in the bush to return so that we can live peacefully. There is no way people can be kidnapped and made to pay ransom without expecting them to be angry with you.
“People are angry with Fulanis. No one is stopping you from grazing, going to school, or staying peacefully, yet you know your children are doing bad things to people. Even if they are not caught, you will eventually face the consequences.”
JUST IN: 🇳🇬🦉DSS SET TO APPEAL LIFE SENTENCE ON ANSARU TERROR COMMANDERS
The Department of State Services (DSS) is set to appeal the life sentence handed to two top commanders of the Ansaru T£rr0r organization by a Federal High Court in Abuja.
Justice Emeka Nwite sentenced Mahmud Usman (aka Abu Bara’a/Abbas/Mukhtar), the self-styled Emir of Ansaru, and Abubakar Abba (aka Mahmud al-Nigeri/Malam Mamuda) to life imprisonment after they pleaded guilty to all 32-count charges.
A top DSS official described the sentence as too lenient for the gravity of their crimes.
The official noted the curious timing: the commanders changed their plea after Ansaru members k!dn@pp£d pupils and teachers in Oriire, Oyo State. One of the key demands was the unconditional release of these same commanders.
The DSS insists that life sentences do not adequately serve justice for the two Oriire teachers beheaded by the abductors, whose demand was the release of these terror leaders.
The Service will seek maximum penalties on behalf of the victims.

After passing through this battle to ensure the safety of Nigerians. Morris Monye and idiots like him will downplay it as “staged”.
May thunder fire Morris and his entire generation.
So, an attack that big was planned in less than 24 hours including logistics? He’s a decent Governor but thinks and talks like a nonentity sometimes. Couldn’t even leave politics till the next day.
“We will use this opportunity to thank our service commanders, the Nigerian police, DSS, the military, and of course, the president (Tinubu) for pushing really hard to get this done.”
- Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State reaction after the Release of Abductees
Today, I experienced one of the most traumatic moments of my life.
I had gone to a friend’s place to lend him my MacBook charger because I stay in Ikorodu his charger had stopped working. After leaving his place and heading home, I was stopped by men who identified themselves as Nigerian police officers. They were not dressed in standard police uniforms, which made the situation even more frightening.
I was forcefully pushed into my car, accused of being a cultist without any evidence, and subjected to intimidation. My phone was searched, I was threatened, and I was repeatedly told that if I did not cooperate, I would be shot, killed, or have my car taken away.
They drove me around to different locations, including from Ikorodu to ketu under a bridge, while continuing to threaten me. Under fear for my life, I was forced to open my banking apps and make transfers. In total, about ₦700,000 was taken from my account through coercion. They wanted me to pay them 5 million which I don’t even have, They also forced me to call friends and demand money from them, insisting that I raise millions of naira despite having committed no crime.
This was not a voluntary transaction. Every action I took was because I genuinely feared for my life.
I am sharing this video because no Nigerian should have to experience this. No one should be threatened with weapons, intimidated, or forced to hand over their hard earned money by people who are supposed to protect them.
I am reporting this incident to the appropriate authorities and financial institutions, and I hope those responsible are identified and held accountable.
Please help me by sharing this until it reaches the right people. This has to stop.

APC Chieftain Lanre Jinadu Asks Makinde: "Have You Stolen the Money for Surveillance Aircrafts?"
Oyo State APC chieftain Lanre Jinadu has called out Governor Seyi Makinde over the delay in the deployment of surveillance aircrafts to tackle insecurity in the state.
Jinadu expressed concern over the continued hold-up of the aircraft, which were reportedly procured to enhance security operations in the state. He accused the governor of failing to prioritise the safety of residents amid rising cases of kidnapping and banditry.
The APC chieftain called on the governor to urgently address the issue and ensure the aircrafts are deployed without further delay.
