The police have also arrested this Nigerian who made an alarming post about Abuja’s security, spreading fear among citizens. By arresting him, the police have sent the clear message that reckless users of the social media won’t go Scot free.
The IGP crack team has arrested Ifechukwu Dennis who originated the fake voice that he passed on to his gullible targets as President Tinubu’s voice. Dennis was arrested in Benin. The police will issue an official statement.

TROOPS OF 12 BRIGADE RESCUE TWO KIDNAP VICTIMS, INTENSIFY HUNT FOR TERRORISTS IN KOGI STATE
Troops of 12 Brigade Nigerian Army under 2 Division Nigerian Army have rescued two kidnap victims following a swift response to a kidnapping incident in Egbe, Yagba West Local Government Area of Kogi State.
The incident occurred in the late hours of 3 June 2026 when terrorists invaded a residence near Solid Rock School in Ijalu, Egbe and abducted five members of a family, including a woman, her infant child and three others.
Upon receiving the distress report, troops immediately mobilized in conjunction with members of the Vigilante Group of Nigeria (VGN), launching a pursuit operation along the terrorists’ withdrawal route. The sustained pressure mounted by the security team forced the terrorists to abandon Mrs Adekemi Idowu and her six month old child near Oro axis before fleeing into the surrounding area.
The rescued victims were safely returned to their residence, while troops have continued aggressive search operations aimed at rescuing the remaining victims and apprehending the perpetrators.
The Nigerian Army remains committed to protecting lives and property and urges members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to support ongoing security operations.

@Conservatives@KemiBadenoch Nigel Farage exploits opportunities to incite racial sentiments in British politics, especially among rural voters upset by increased boat crossings from France and radical religious teachings. His opportunistic behaviour is evident and must be challenged & highlighted to voters.
Nigeria is a few inches from civil war II. I have used several indicators in history to reach this conclusion. The Nigerian Civil War II will be fought not to retain ONE Nigeria, but to save ancestral lands and ward off Jihadists, with outcomes leading to various nation-states.
