Police press release on the interception of heavily armed kidnappers on their way to an operation

 


                  
                                         Read the press release
In continuation of targeted onslaught against crime and criminality throughout the country, the Inspector General of Police Intelligence Response Team (IRT) recorded a major breakthrough in Rivers and Bayelsa states.
2.       Acting on credible intelligence and public support, on the 29th of November, 2016, the IRT intercepted a four-man gang of heavily armed kidnappers, notorious for terrorizing the waterways and kidnapping in Rivers and Bayelsa states, along Azikiwe Road, Port Harcourt, Rivers State on their way for an operation. A gun duel ensued, after which three of the kidnappers were fatally wounded while one James Peter ‘m’ aged 30 years from Southern Ijaw LGA of Bayelsa State was arrested.

3.       The arrested member of the gang has since been cooperating with the police in their investigation by providing very valuable information on the membership of the gang and their modus of operation.

4.       Weapons recovered from the kidnappers include one General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), one AK47 rifle, chains of GPMG ammunition and two fully loaded AK47 magazines. Efforts are in top gear to arrest fleeing members of the gang and recover their cache of arms.

5.       Meanwhile, the Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim K. Idris, NPM, mni has once again enjoined Nigerians never to hesitate to provide the police with valuable information and assures them of renewed commitment on the part of the force in the fight against crime and antisocial behaviour.

VP Osinbajo speaks on arrest of some judges, says "If we don't kill corruption, it will kill us"

 
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo was a guest on Channels TV where he was asked about the recent arrest of some judges by the DSS. Osinbajo who is a Professor of Law and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria SAN, said he would rather not make an informal statement on the matter but that going by a general overview, what is being fought in this instance is corruption and that going by what his boss President Buhari, says, if we don't kill corruption, it will kill us. He says the people who loot Nigeria's territory have the means to hire the best lawyers who also are able to keep a case in court for 5-10 years.

"I don't want to make off the cuff(informal) but as a general remark, my position is that we are dealing with an problem. We are dealing with an existential problem. It accounts for everything. Look at what happened in the North East. Many many soldiers lost their lives. Speaking to some of the widows of these soldiers, you are just outraged by the fact that people embezzled the money that was supposed to have been used to equip the soldiers. Equip them physically, give them bulletproof vest, put them in proper armored tanks rather than fake armored tanks. These are the sorts of things that anywhere else in the world, the outrage will be such that you and I would literarily be standing up on the streets to say where are these guys who did this and if we don't feel that way, it just continues to diminish us. My son was asking me the other day that these people who did all these things, stole N50 billion and others, I haven't seen any of them locked up. I said we have a system. We have got to follow the rule of law. We are doing so. We have got to take them to a court of law. We are not in a society where we are just going to tie someone to a stick and shoot them. We have got to go to a court of law. Many of those who do these things have the resources to hire the best lawyers who can keep a case in court for 5 years, 10 years. So we have got to keep fighting that also"he said

Donald Trump video reportedly called former Sec. of State Condoleezza Rice a 'bitch' in 2006, Rice responds!

 

According to CNN's KFile, U.S Presidential candidate Donald Trump wished former U.S Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was a 'bitch' in 2006. According to CNN's KFile, The NY Daily News allegedly reported in 2006 that Trump had told an audience at a Learning Annex convention speech,
"Condoleezza Rice, she's a lovely woman, but I think she's a bitch. She goes around to other countries and other nations, negotiates with their leaders, comes back and nothing ever happens."
The New York Daily News republished the story on Tuesday and when Rice was asked if she had any response to the New York Daily News report of Trump's remarks, Rice replied:
"Exactly. Can't wait until November 9!"
According to CNN's KFile archives, the video allegedly shows Trump saying:
"I wish she was a bitch. I don't care if she's a lovely woman. I want somebody that can go and make deals. She goes to countries, nothing ever happens. Except sound bytes." Rice on October 8 on her Facebook page wrote :'Enough! Donald Trump should not be president. He should withdraw,"

Photo: African woman with baby strapped to her back fends off thugs who were about to stab a teenager in London

 

Two black mothers, including one with a baby intervened when thugs were about to stab a teenager in a busy shopping street. The niece and her aunt took action when two youths with huge knives chased two other boys through New Cross in south London. The aunt picked up a cafe chair and lunged at one of the knifemen with all her strength, knocking him off balance as he was about to attack one of the boys.
Witnesses praised the two women, saying they had saved the boy's life. The aftermath was captured by BBC London, who filmed the women telling police what had happened. The niece, still carrying her baby, told officers:
"I started shouting and the next thing I saw was my auntie, who’d got one of the cafe chairs. She was trying to stop them." Her aunt added: "We just saw it like ‘this is going to be a bloodshed if we don’t get tough’. They had two massive knives. "We just tried to prevent somebody from ending up in the hospital or in the mortuary. And as a mother I didn’t think about anything else, Ijust thought that this needed to be stopped"

Another witness, Lena Gale told the Standard : "One of the two attackers was carrying the biggest knife I have ever seen, it was huge. I told the driver to pull over and started screaming for people to help. One of the boys being chased tripped and fell over. He looked like he was done for, doubled up on the floor. They were going to kill him. But this woman stepped in and grabbed a cafe chair and hit the boy with the knife as hard as she could. The guy stopped in his tracks and ran off." When officers arrived the scene, the alleged attackers and their victims had fled. The women have been hailed as heroes by online users.

Dele Momodu reacts to President Buhari's 'my wife belongs to the kitchen' comment

 
Lol...

Reno Omokri responds to Pres. Buhari and Emir of Katsina (watch)

 
'What moral standing have you as a Nigerian to criticize Donald J. Trump about his treatment of women when your own President has said publicly to the whole world that his wife belongs in his kitchen and other rooms? How can you justify him consigning her to the kitchen and bedroom for basically telling him to stop blaming Goodluck Jonathan and start finding solutions to Nigeria's problems as he promised? Yet, you leave this to condemn Donald Trump. Charity begins at home not at Trump Towers!'-Reno Omokri
