Serving Nigerian Senator Prince Shindu Munir N WKCO, well known as Ned N WKO,
0:06
has been accused of sending policemen to arrest his in-laws after his fourth wife and a popular Mollywood super actress,
0:13
Regina Daniels, ran out of the matrimonial home over alleged domestic violence, intimidation, oppressions, and
0:20
maltreatment like a nobody in the senator's house. This the serving Nigeria Senator Ned Nen WCKO accused the
0:27
absconded wife Regina Daniels of substance abuse denying her allegations of domestic violence adding he made
0:35
efforts to stop her addict of substance abuse. Hence the wife Regina Daniels became violent and she started
0:41
assaulting the domestic staff and destroying properties in the house. According to Ned Nen WCKO in a statement
0:47
he had issued less than 48 hours after the star actress ran away from her
0:52
matrimonial home in October last month. While I took Moon to the hospital, a
0:58
scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina's main drug supplier, another known supplier of
1:05
drugs to Regina is the tiny evil devil called an in a swift reaction to the
1:10
arrest of his son and Regina Daniels brother yesterday. Rita Daniels, the mother-in-law, accused the serving
1:16
Nigeria senator, Neden WKO of trying to bite the finger that fed him, saying
1:22
Neden WCKO married her daughter because she was a popular actress and the senator needed the high star of her
1:28
status to boost his fallen star or his political relevance in the Nigeria politics, saying the senator will go
1:35
down for arresting her children, adding that people should take a lookout Ned in Woko's children if any of them looked
1:41
like from a billionaire father. Although the actual numbers of the in-laws arrested is yet to be officially stated
1:48
as one of the Reginaina Daniels sisters, initially said to be arrested alongside with the brother, was seen outside the
1:54
police station in Lagos State on Monday night in a video made available online by Regina Daniels family. verbatim.
2:03
Regina Daniels mother, Rita Daniels, while she was being video recorded and
2:08
screaming with a very loud, painful voice in front of the police station at night yesterday, said, "You married my
2:15
daughter because you wanted someone with high star to boost your fallen star. If
2:20
you think you can bite the finger that fed you, you'll go down. Regina gave you
2:25
$50,000 to support your election. All my resources also went into that same
2:30
election. You were mad. Nigeria media reported that the arrests came days
2:35
after actress Regina Daniels allegedly filed for divorce, accusing him of domestic violence. Calling out the
2:43
senator amid the marital crisis on Monday, Regina disclosed that her elder brother and sister had been arrested.
2:50
While appealing to the general public for urgent help, the 24year-old in a
2:55
series of posts on her Instagram page attributed her siblings arrest and detention to an alleged attempt by her
3:01
husband to force her into a rehabilitation center. Someone please help me. I feel like I'm losing my mind.
3:10
I never thought I would do this, but my big brother and big sister have been arrested. My baby sister might be
3:17
arrested as well until I return. According to him, return to rehab. Don't
3:22
even get me started on telling the world what you did to me with your stupid rehab talk. Daniels wrote, "You said
3:30
fellow contestants in the last concluded presidential election in Nigeria and an amber state former governor Peter Obi
3:37
has said that the current president of Nigeria Bola Ahmed Tanubu le government lacks the passion to stop the
3:44
unwarranted killing of people in manners of criminal acts including terrorism
3:49
stressing that while the insecurity did not start with the present government. What is most unfortunate is the lack and
3:56
absence of competence, commitment, prudent use of resources, patriotism and passion on the part of APC, APCled
4:04
government, leaders to effectively govern, galvanize and led Nigeria where no one is unwarrantedly oppressed and
4:11
killed. A nation where peace, truth, and justice reign. This Peter Obi stated via
4:18
his social media accounts on Monday evening in response to the United States. US President Donald Trump
4:25
announced plans to launch US military action in Nigeria to wipe out terrorists killing Christians in the West Africa
4:32
country. According to Peter Obi, the recent pronouncement by the US government declaring Nigeria a country
4:39
of particular concern, CPC, and indicating possible military action
4:44
should give every well-meaning Nigerian serious concern. There is no doubt that Nigeria is experiencing an unprecedented
4:52
level of insecurity with attendant carnage and the most shocking loss of lives and property. According to Amnesty
4:59
International, over 10,000 people have been killed in Nigeria since May 2023.
5:05
And as I have repeatedly lamented, the unwarranted and unprovoked killing of Nigerians is most condemnable, and all
5:12
efforts must be made to bring it to a stop. It is equally important to state that the terrible situation is
5:18
significantly avoidable with competent leadership and governance. While the insecurity did not start with the
5:24
present government, what is most unfortunate is the lack and absence of competence, commitment, prudent use of
5:31
resources, patriotism and passion on the part of APC, APCled government leaders
5:38
to effectively govern, galvanize and led Nigeria where no one is unwarrantedly
5:43
oppressed and killed. A nation where peace, truth, and justice reign. As
5:48
democracies, Nigeria and the US have long been strategic partners committed to regional peace and security. That
5:56
relationship should not falter. The present situation calls for constructive diplomatic and any other plausible
6:02
engagement by both nations aimed at addressing the prevailing and disturbing security concerns. Both countries must
6:10
work in concert and expeditiously towards that purpose. Peter Obi had earlier on October 28th, 2025 condemned
6:18
the Nigeria government over rising criminal acts in drug abuse related crimes, saying when criminals can now
6:25
use the country logistics companies to distribute narcotics across the country, it shows how weak the government
6:31
institutions in Nigeria have become. The recent revelation that drug traffickers
6:36
have infiltrated Nigeria's courier and delivery services sector is worrisome and another sad reminder of how deep our
6:43
national decay has become. When criminal networks can now use logistics companies
6:48
to distribute narcotics across the country, it shows how weak our institutions and relevant monitoring
6:54
systems are. The Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLE, Barrista
7:00
Jefferson Muhayeran, a human right lawyer and a political activist has said
7:06
nothing wrong if it takes the intervention of the United States, US President Donald Trump to end the raging
7:12
fires of insecurity, institutional wickedness and terrorism in Nigeria. The
7:17
legal practitioner stated this in numbers of posts he published through his personal social media platform since
7:24
President Donald Trump announced US intention to launch military action in
7:29
Nigeria to wipe out terrorists killing Christians in the West Africa country
7:34
saying if America's saber rattling military threat is the dirty water needed to flush this country clean or
7:41
quench the raging fires of institutional wickedness, insecurity and terrorism So
7:47
be it. According to barrista Jefferson Wuhayan, dirty water day quench fire.
7:53
Nobody, yes, nobody deserves to die in the hands of terrorists. If it takes
7:59
Trump's intervention to wake up disgraceful governments to act swiftly, vigorously, patriotically, and
8:05
responsibly, so be it. The primary business of government is the safety and
8:10
protection of the lives and properties of citizens, whether Christians or Muslims. If America's saber rattling is
8:18
the dirty water needed to flush this country clean or quench the raging fires of institutional wickedness, insecurity
8:25
and terrorism, so be it. Now government way serious citizens day loyal for a
8:32
country of concern to disgraced country. How did we get here? This is the lowest
8:37
of lows in Nigeria America relations. A country we ditched the UK for and
8:43
adopted its system of government. practically everything. This is not really about Trump. It's more about how
8:50
we treat crime, punishment, and our bogus criminal justice system. The
8:55
government has surrounded itself with forning ninkmp and incompetent advisers who see national security only through
9:02
narrow tribal prisms and ritualism, adept at creating enemies for the government instead of friends. No
9:09
attempt at consiliotative politics or national unity. Almost 3 years. There
9:14
are no ambassadors to major countries. Our foreign policy chiefs are torn between transactional politics of
9:21
financial safe heavens or alignment with non-aligned low energy Caribbean countries. Our domestic policy leans
9:28
more towards appeasement of fading potentates rather than the enforcement of nation building rules. We can't
9:35
continue this way. Either we sit down and talk or others will do the talking to us. A collapsed or exploding Nigeria
9:43
is a threat to global peace and a humongous humanitarian disaster that must be avoided at all cost. We are
9:50
almost at the gate. Where's the break? We had reported that Ogan's stateorn princess Olira Majo Dunanu has reacted
9:58
over the description of Nigeria as a disgraced country by President Donald
10:04
Trump of the United States US saying the greatest contribution the United States
10:09
and its allies can make at this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of visionary,
10:16
credible and people centered Nigerian leaders, not the preservation of a kleptocratic status quo that has
10:22
entrenched poverty, division and despair, calling on the international community for the urgent need to uphold
10:28
democracy and human. Lagos State Command of the Nigeria Police Force has declared the founder and publisher of Sahare
10:35
Reporters News Media. Omay Saware wanted for organizing protest in Lagos State,
10:41
which the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mishu Jimo said Saware has allegedly committed the offense of
10:48
breach of public peace. And the police commissioner thereafter confirmed the arrest of 13 persons he described as
10:54
vagabonds and miscreants as group of people came out on Monday morning to protest against the demolition of their
11:00
settlements after their houses at the Koker and Oilari areas of a Warren Shaki
11:06
community in Kasaf local government area of Lagos state were brought down at midnight on Saturday hours after the
11:13
state government announced that it had compensated about 80 property owners on Friday forcing some concerned citizens
11:20
to condemn the government for displacing families without a clear plan for relocation and reintegration into the
11:27
housing system. This yelles saw in an on the spot video statement made on Monday
11:33
at the scene of the protest said he could not come down from the vehicle because he had a privileged information
11:39
that there was plans to kill him if he comes out openly during the protest. According to Saware, the action of the
11:46
police explained why President Donald Trump of the United States, US is considering military action in Nigeria
11:53
because the US president has seen weak leadership and leaders do not mean well for the people. According to the Lagos
12:00
State Police Commissioner, I hereby as the commissioner of police, Lagos State Police Command, declare Sore wanted. I
12:08
declare him wanted for causing disturbance of public peace and an act to commit a felony by planning and
12:14
putting all the plans in motion to block the third mainland bridge to cause hardship for Largoians and other
12:20
Nigerians, more especially visitors who are transients through this end. We will
12:26
not allow that. We are closing in on him. Anywhere he is, he should know that
12:31
we are closing in on him. We learned that he was in a bus and being videoed. Why didn't he come down? He came down in
12:39
Abuja. He should come down wherever he is. He should report himself to the
12:44
nearest police station. We are going to arrest him, investigate him, and prosecute him. The commissioner of
12:51
police said massive deployment of police personnel had been made, not just to the third mainland bridge, but also to other
12:58
parts of the state where coordinated protests are likely to hold. The police
13:03
boss stressed that this location is vital to the city's economy and the well-being of commuters. We will not
13:10
allow any action, peaceful or otherwise, that seeks to block the bridge and disrupt livelihoods. Any attempt to
13:17
obstruct the third mainland bridge is a direct threat to public safety and national infrastructure.
13:23
Anyone attempting to disturb public peace will be arrested, investigated, and prosecuted. Lagos is the heartbeat
13:30
of Nigeria's economy and we cannot afford chaos here. We have arrested 13
13:36
suspects who are vagabonds and miscreants who wanted to cause mayhem in Lagos state. Sare in a statement with a
13:43
video attachment said, "I recorded this video at the scene of the attack on peaceful protesters by Nigeria police
13:51
force in Lagos during today's Awarens anti-demolition protest which they
13:56
handled in the usual despicable and unconscionable manner. The Hogan stateborn princess Olira Majo Dunanu has
14:04
reacted over the description of Nigeria as a disgraced country by President
14:09
Donald Trump of the United States US saying the greatest contribution the
14:15
United States and its allies can make at this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of
14:21
visionary, credible and people centered Nigerian leaders, not the preservation
14:26
of a kleptocratic status quo that has entrenched poverty, division, and despair. Calling on the international
14:32
community for the urgent need to uphold democracy and human dignity amid President Trump's plans to begin US
14:39
military actions in Nigeria to end the killing of Christians in Nigeria. While
14:44
reacting to the recent remarks by President Donald Trump portraying Nigeria as a disgraced country, Princess
14:51
Oliver acknowledged the deep governance challenges confronting Africa's most populous nation, but emphasized that
14:58
Nigeria's struggle is not one of Christian targeted conflict, but one of governance, justice, and humanity
15:05
itself. The greatest contribution the United States and its allies can make at
15:10
this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of visionary, credible and people centered
15:17
Nigerian leaders, not the preservation of a kleptocratic status quo that has entrenched poverty, division and
15:23
despair. True partnership must empower integrity and merit, not those who have
15:28
rigged themselves into power through corruption and coercion. Princess Ola Terra called for global collaboration to
15:36
restore faith in governance and strengthen democratic institutions, noting that Nigeria's stability and
15:42
progress are critical not only for its citizens, but for Africa and the world at large. Only through principled
15:49
engagement and unwavering support for democracy can Nigeria's citizens rebuild their nation in peace and dignity, free
15:56
from the devastation of renewed conflict. I look forward to continued dialogue, progressive cooperation and a
16:03
shared vision for humanity, she concluded. We have reported that President Donald Trump of the United
16:10
States of America has placed US soldiers on red alert for possible war in Nigeria. According to President Trump,
16:17
the US Department of War should prepare US troops for possible military action in Nigeria if the Nigerian government
16:24
continued to allow the killing of Christians. The US troops may very well go into that now disgraced country guns
16:32
ablazing to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. This
16:38
President Trump issued on Saturday evening in line with Greenwich Meridian time after President Bola Ahmed Tonubu
16:46
personally signed a statement rejecting Trump earlier claim on Friday that Christians are being targeted and killed
16:52
in Nigeria. Although President Bola Ahmed Tonubu disagreed with Trump who
16:57
had described the high level of insecurity in Nigeria as a religious war by Islamic terrorists against
17:04
Christians. But some Nigerians quickly took to the comment section of President
17:09
Bola Ahmed Tonubu post on exocial media platform and pasted a screenshot of a
17:15
tweet published by President Bola Ahmed Tonubu on January 29th, 2014, wherein
17:22
President Bola Ahmed Tonubu apparently had long accepted and agreed that the insecurity in Nigeria is possibly

President Donald Trump of the United States of America has placed US soldiers on red alert for possible war in
17:36
Nigeria. According to President Trump, the US Department of War should prepare

continued to allow the killing of Christians, the US troops may very well go into that now disgraced country guns

President Bola Ahmed Tonubu apparently had long accepted and agreed that the insecurity in Nigeria is possibly a
18:52
religious war against Christians in the West Africa country. verbatim. In the tweet, Tonubu said, "The slaughtering of
19:00
Christian worshippers is strongly condemnable. It calls to question the competence of Jonathan, then President
19:06
of Nigeria to protect Nigerians." This old statement by President Bola Ahmed
19:11
Tonubu indicated that President Donald Trump of the United States of America may not be the first person to describe
19:18
the insecurity in Nigeria as a religious war against Christian communities in the West Africa country. President Trump in
19:26
his latest policy statement via his truth social media platform on Saturday evening said and in quotes that if the
19:33
Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the USA will immediately stop all aid and assistance
19:40
to Nigeria and may very well go into that now disgraced country guns a blazing to completely wipe out the
19:47
Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our department of war to
19:54
prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and
19:59
sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our cherished Christians. Warning, the Nigerian government better
20:06
move fast. According to President Bola Ahmed Tonubu, Nigeria stands firmly as a
20:12
democracy governed by constitutional guarantees of religious liberty. Since
20:17
2023, our administration has maintained an open and active engagement with
20:23
Christian and Muslim leaders alike and continues to address security challenges which affect citizens across faiths and
20:29
regions. The characterization of Nigeria as religiously intolerant does not
20:34
reflect our national reality. Nor does it take into consideration the consistent and sincere efforts of the
20:40
government to safeguard freedom of religion and beliefs for all Nigerians. Religious freedom and tolerance have
20:47
been a core tenant of our collective identity and shall always remain so. Nigeria opposes religious persecution
20:55
and does not encourage it. Nigeria is a country with constitutional guarantees.

Reports on Saturday early morning in the Africa country of Tanzania indicated that thousands of youths in the country
21:07

21:30
shot at and over 700 of them have been killed by security operatives since the
21:35
violent protest erupted in the country on Wednesday over the 2025 presidential
21:41
election ction allegedly marred by corrupt practices. But the Tanzania Foreign Ministry dismissed the claim,
21:48
saying, "The Tanzania government is not aware of any death recorded or any of the protesters killed, adding the
21:55
government has not used excessive force on the protesters. This the United Nations UN Human Rights Office stated on
22:03
Friday that it has a credible report of at least 10 deaths recorded as a result of killing of protesters by the Tanzania
22:11
security forces and information from border communities between Tanzania and Kenya indicated that on Thursday,
22:18
October 30th, in the afternoon, chaos broke out at the Nango border checkpoint
22:23

and tear gas canisters leading to a casualty of two people shot dead by
22:35

represents 31,913,866
23:07
ballots in the October 29th, 2025 controversial presidential election
23:13
boycotted by the country main opposition political party chamber which the
23:18
Chamber political party did by not signing the electoral code of conduct after the set deadline and the Tanzania
23:24
electoral body subsequently banned the Chamber Political Party party from participating in the general election
23:30
and all bi-elections till 2030. And this is in addition to the disqualifications
23:36
of challenges like Tundu Lishu of Chadma political party. The main opposition leader who remains detained since April
23:43
2025 and other serious challenger Luhaga Mina of ACT Walendo was disqualified on
23:50
technicalities. The final result showed Hassan 971 and 66 J% of the vote dominating every
23:58
constituency. The electoral commission announced on state television a quick swearing in ceremony would take place on

24:11
president Samya Sulu Hassan left her private residence in Zanzibar in a
24:16
military chopper and some local media reported on Saturday morning that her whereabouts had remained unknown.
24:23
Demonstrations erupted on Wednesday in Dar Salam, a city of more than 7 million
24:28
people after Kingsley Canaanu, the younger brother to Mazi Nami Kanu in an
24:34
expost as reshared by barristister a lawyer Gi Mccor, the coordinating lawyer for the detained Bafra Republic
24:40
agitation leader. Mazi Nami Kanu has given reasons why his elder brother had
24:46
continued to defend himself on the ground of no case submission saying the
24:51
federal government of Nigeria who made the accusations and filed the terrorism charges against the Bafra leader has not
24:58
been able to pinpoint any aspect of the Nigeria laws that should warrant his brother Mazi Nandi Kanu to enter defense
25:06
citing several court rulings that invalidated the federal government accusations against the detained Bafra
25:12
leader. This Kingsley Canakanu stated in reaction to the commentary of Dr. Samadi
25:19
published on this day newspaper after the detained leader of the indigenous people of Bafra Nami Kanu on Monday
25:26
abandoned his earlier plan to call witnesses in his ongoing trial before the federal high court in Abuja. Nandi
25:34
Kanu who is being prosecuted on seven counts of terrorism charges brought against him by the federal government
25:40
last two Friday had prayed the court for an adjournment after informing the trial judge justice James Amatosho that his
25:48
former legal team led by a former attorney general of the federation and minister of justice chief Kanu Agabi San
25:56
had yet to release his case file to him though Nandi Kanu had earlier expressed
26:01
his readiness to open his defense in a written application to the court in which he indicated his intention to call
26:08
witnesses and requested the issuance of witness summons. But at the resumed hearing on Monday, Kanu told the court
26:15
that upon reviewing the case file, he had concluded that there was no valid charge against him. Nandi Kanu argued
26:22
that since he believed the charges were unlawful and that the prosecution had failed to establish any case, there was
26:28
no need for him to proceed with his defense. According to Punch newspaper, the trial judge, Justice Jameso,
26:37
directed Kanu to file a written address formally stating his position and to serve the prosecution accordingly.
26:43
Justice further advised the IPOB leader to consult experts in criminal law to
26:49
understand the possible legal implications of his decision. The judge thereafter adjourned the case to
26:55
November 4th, 5, and six for the adoption of final written addresses based either on Carnu's position that no
27:02
case had been established against him or for him to proceed with his defense if he decides otherwise. Kingsley can caru
27:10
statement as recirculated by barrista lawy on Thursday tagged legal rejoinder
27:17
to the misleading commentary by Dr. Samadi published in this day of the 30th of October 2025 titled if I were Kanu I
27:26
would not refuse to write a defense stated as follows below. One
27:31
introduction correcting a misguided narrative the recent article by Dr.
27:37
Samadi in this day at this of the 30th of October 2025 suggesting that Mazi
27:44
Nami Kanu should write a defense instead of claiming he has no case exemplifies
27:49
how poorly informed commentary can distort constitutional discourse in Nigeria. While the piece parades itself
27:56
as legal analysis, it fundamentally misstates the law and fact. President Bola Ahmed Tonubu of Nigeria has issued
28:03
a revised policy actions over the 2025 presidential pardons he had earlier
28:08
granted to 175 persons some of whom were convicted murderers, deadly kidnappers
28:15
which included Mariam Sander who had spent barely 6 years and 8 months at the Sledger Medium Security Custodial Center
28:22
after she was convicted and sentenced to death by hanging over the killing of her husband Bilyami Nubello in Abuja.
28:30
who she stabbed three times repeatedly. This president Bola Ahmed Tonubu in his
28:35
earlier presidential pardon granted to the 37 years old convicted and condemned
28:41
murderer Mariam Sander had asked her to go home free because of her children.
28:46
part following public outcry and condemnation in the revised version of the presidential pardon signed into law
28:53
on October 21st, 2025 and made available to the public by the presidency on
28:59
Wednesday, October 29th, 2025. President Tonubu commuted the death sentence to 12
29:05
years imprisonment. Although the presidency never mentioned the total numbers of people granted the
29:11
presidential pardons but the list of beneficiaries made available by the presidential spokesperson Beo Onuga
29:19
indicated that only 86 persons were granted the presidential pardons and Mariam Sander apparently spelled as
29:26
Mariam Sand was last on the list and the names of earlier beneficiaries like Kelvin Prosper Oniara were not seen in
29:33
the revised edition of the list. Maybe the names were omitted due to excessive public outcry that Prosper Kelvin Oniara
29:40
was a convicted notorious high-profile gang leader of a deadly kidnapping group that were widely stated to be
29:47
responsible for the kidnapping and subsequent killing of a former Anamra state deputy governor Julian Wiki
29:54
kidnapping of a prominent legal practitioner Mike Zome on August 24th
29:59
2013 along Benin AI road and during the kidnapping operation the gunman ambushed
30:04
and killed killed four police officers including the divisional police officer BPO of Ahore division who led the police
30:11
team in an attempt to rescue Mike Jose outside that the 44 years old Oniara was
30:17
also stated to be responsible for the kidnapping of a judge in the Edeto state judiciary a top female official of the
30:24
Federal Inland Revenue Service Furs among other several members of the National Youth Service Corps NYC and
30:32
security agents and on was also stated to carry out several armed robberies and
30:38
kidnap operations in Delta, Edo, Rivers and Anamra states, maintaining
30:43
operational base and detention camps in Warry and Cockori community in Delta
30:48
State, Ugbakolo community in Benway state, Benin city in Edeto state and
30:54
Abberinabia state that on the 18th of September 2013, Oniara issued a 60-day
31:00
ultimatum to the federal government of Nigeria to release some of his boys who were arrested by the Department of State
31:07
Services, DSS, or he would wreak havoc on innocent Nigerian citizens. And on
31:12
the 25th of September 2013, a combined security team of the Nigerian Army and
31:18
DSS operatives arrested Kelvin Prosper Oniara, a convicted notorious terrorist,
31:24
kidnapped Kingpin and armed robber who had been on the wanted list of the security agencies and human rights
31:31
lawyer. Barrister Jefferson Muahharen has condemned and berated the federal government of Nigeria under the
31:37
presidency of Bola Ahmed Tonubu for arresting, detaining and remanding to Kujay prison barrista Aloy Makor the
31:44
lawyer to the detained Bafra republic agitation leader Mazi Nami Kanu after a
31:50
lawyer Makor was seen joining the free Nambdi Kanu protest in Abuja on Monday.
31:55
According to the human rights lawyer who have remarkable experience in fighting against police extrajudicial killing,
32:03
one notable exception is that a lawyer enjoys less freedom than others to speak publicly about his or her own cases, but
32:10
not when it involves solidarity marches and protests for his client. The conducts of lawyers and the limit of
32:16
their professional duties is the kennel of the alarming accusation by the presidency yesterday against the lawyer
32:22
of Mr. and Nambdi Kanu and his subsequent arrest by the police for his presence at a scene in Abuja where
32:29
protesters were marching peacefully demanding the release of Mr. Kanu. The statement from the presidency and the
32:34
police action is obviously a culmination of undisguised hostility towards the lawyer for having the tmerity to
32:41
represent a person the government have since prosecuted and convicted in the court of public opinions. Ordinarily, a
32:48
lawyer's bail application for alleged crime of illegal protest won't be refused. The refusal is concerning and
32:55
turning a simple matter into a political case of vendetta and persecution. Mayo
33:00
Onanuga the special adviser to the president on information and strategy had on Monday tweeted while the free
33:06
Nambi Canu protest was ongoing that I spotted a lawyer Mccor one of Nandi
33:12
Kanu's lawyers among the small group of protesters mobilized in Abuja by Om
33:17
saware I wonder what Mr. Edi Makor was thinking when he decided to join this
33:22
shambolic protest. As a lawyer, he should be aware of the principle of subjudicy, particularly in relation to
33:29
the ongoing treason case before the court. The prosecution has concluded its
33:34
case, and it is now incumbent upon Mr. Edgi Mccor and the other lawyers to mount a strong defense for Kanu. Rather
33:42
than focusing on preparing a strong case, Mr. Makor has resorted to extraleal tactics joining a career
33:49
anarchist to influence the process. Meanwhile, few hours ago, the organizer
33:54
of the protest and the founder of Sahare reporters news media, Amayle Saware
33:59
stated via his social media accounts that we have been informed that plans are allegedly in place of Kuj Prison to
34:06
harm Lambdi Kanu's younger brother Fine Boy and a lawyer Jim Makor, his special
34:11
counsel inside Kooj Prison by special orders assigned by the Asawaju Bola
34:17
Ahmed Tonubu. Beo Onuga in the tweet demanded a snaction against barristister
34:22
Aloy Makor for joining the protest calling for the release of his client Nambi Kanu. Accordingly, Beo Onuga said,
34:31
"I spotted a lawyer Makor, one of Nambi Kanu's lawyers among the small group of
34:36
protesters mobilized in Abuja by Amy Saware. I wonder what Mr. Eji Makor was
34:42
thinking when he decided to join this shambolic protest. As a lawyer, he should be aware of the principle of
34:49
subjudicy, particularly in relation to the ongoing treason case before the court. The prosecution has concluded its
34:57
case and it is now incumbent upon Mr. Nigeria Police Force NPF under the
35:03
leadership of the Inspector General of Police IGP Carode Egen who is currently
35:08
in the United States, US attending the International Association of Chiefs of
35:13
Police IAP annual conference in Denver, Colorado, USA alongside other senior
35:20
police officers has warned troublemakers to resist the temptation of hijacking the free Nambdi Kanu protest slated to
35:28
hold today across the West Africa country by the organizers and other group of Nigerians to demand the release
35:34
of the detained Bafra Republic agitation leader Mazi Nandi Kanu. Also the NPF
35:41
reminded the organizers and the protesters to respect the federal high court order that restricted them from
35:46
staging the protest in certain areas in Abuja such areas which included Aso Rock
35:52
Villa and its environs. the National Assembly Complex, Force Headquarters, the Court of Appeal, Eagle Square and
35:59
Shahu Shagari Way. While assuring the protesters of protection, the NPF in a
36:05
statement issued and made availab by the force spokesperson Benjamin Hyundai
36:10
indicated that the Nigeria Police Force reaffirms its unwavering commitment to upholding the rule of law and
36:16
maintaining public peace in accordance with constitutional provisions. This follows the subsisting order of the
36:23
Federal High Court Abuja division given on the 17th of October 2025 by honorable
36:30
justice MG Yumar in suit number FHC ABJ CS 225ths
36:40
Federal Republic of Nigeria versus Amy Saware and four others. The order
36:45
restrains the respondents and any other persons or groups acting under their instruction from staging protests within
36:51
and around Aso Rock Villa and its environs, the National Assembly Complex, Force Headquarters, the Court of Appeal,
36:59
Eagle Square and Shahu Shagari Way. In deference to the authority of the court and in line with the constitutional
37:06
mandate of the police to enforce law and order, the force hereby calls on all groups whether in support of or opposed
37:13
to the ongoing agitation for the release of Marzi Nami Kanu to adhere strictly to
37:18
the provisions of the court order. The directive remains binding and enforceable pending further judicial
37:24
proceedings. The Nigeria Police Force recognizes and respects the rights of citizens to peaceful assembly and
37:31
expression. However, such rights must be exercised responsibly and within the
37:36
limits of the law, particularly where public safety, national security, and the rights of other citizens are
37:43
concerned. The court's intervention is therefore a safeguard, not a suppression
37:48
of constitutional freedoms. Accordingly, all intending protesters and
37:53
counterprotest groups are strongly advised to avoid restricted areas, and to refrain from any act capable of
37:59
provoking confrontation or disturbing public order. The force will ensure the
38:04
free flow of traffic, protection of lives and property, and security of all law- abiding citizens. Any person or
38:12
group that uses protests as coveret to incite violence, carry or use offensive weapons, vandalize public or private
38:20
property, kidnap or engage in acts likely to cause loss of life or serious
38:25
injury will be dealt with decisively. Offenders will be arrested, subjected.
38:30
Founder of Sahare reporters news media and the organizer of the free Nambdi Kano protest, Amiles Saware has refuted
38:37
and debunked the reports circulating in some sections of the media that the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has
38:44
stopped the upcoming Monday October 20th mass protest organized to demand the release of the detained Bafra Republic
38:51
agitation leader Mazi Nami Kanu saying the media report is false and a
38:57
calculated attempt to distract members of the public from coming out to join the protest, adding Nandi Kanu is so
39:04
sick that the people must come out now to set him free. The sickness is alleged by Om Saware apparently challenged the
39:11
medical report issued by the Nigerian Medical Association NMA who had submitted its panel report before the
39:19
trial court on Thursday that Nami Kanu is fit to face trial that the sickness
39:24
is not life-threatening. Art Punch newspaper reporter at the court on Thursday reported that it was the
39:30
Department of State Services DSS lawyer who happened to be one of the parties in
39:36
the dispute that presented the NMA medical report before the court. We are yet to ascertain the independency,
39:42
fairness, objectivity, accuracy and transparency of the Nigerian Medical Association NMA in conducting the
39:50
medical examination. In a statement on Saturday, Amy Saware said the federal
39:56
high court in Abuja has not stopped the proposed free namicuno protest slated for Monday, October 20th, 2025.
40:04
Contrary to the misleading claims being circulated by police lawyers and sections of the media, no order was
40:11
granted restraining citizens from exercising their constitutional right to peaceful assembly. Justice Umar of the
40:18
Federal High Court declined to issue any ex party order sought by the police to halt the nationwide protest altogether.
40:25
What exists is a purported court order obtained in chambers by lawyers of the
40:30
police which has not been served on anyone asking that protesters not protest at Aso Rock Villa National
40:37
Assembly, Eagle Square and a certain Shahu Shagari way. The latest false claims designed to confuse the public
40:44
and discourage participation. The protest date is sacriacted. The movement is unstoppable. In another
40:51
statement, Amy Saware said, "I was deeply involved in the struggle for the validation of the June 12th election,
40:58
and I remember vividly how the system operated back then, how they weaponized the judiciary to buy time, to deceive
41:05
the public, and to justify injustice." They kept saying Aola's case is in court
41:11
using that as a shield for tyranny until they eventually killed him a day before his supposed release. It was a well
41:19
orchestrated tragedy disguised as legal processes. Today I see the same script
41:25
being replayed with Marzi Nami Kanu. The same manipulation, the same excuses,
41:30
fake narrators, fake protesters, the same abuse of process. The language has
41:36
not changed. Only the victims have. History is repeating itself before our
41:41
eyes. And just as we fought to expose the truth, then we must do so now before
41:47
it's too late. The Nandi Kanu I saw in court on October 16th is very ill. We
41:53
must rescue him before another citizen is sacrificed to the bloodthirsty Nigerian elite club.
