Uboko community reached out to me. I
2:33

2:38
In addition, I contacted and mobilized

the Idamuj Uboko vigilante group and
2:44
held discussions with my police contacts
2:46
in Asaba, giving clear instructions to
2:49
track the kidnappers and ensure the safe

operation, I received tracking updates
2:56

5:02
necklace and forcefully removed her wig
5:04
hair from her head, which caused her a
5:06
severe sharp pain. And as a result of
5:08
the pain, she hit the air hostess on the
5:11
cheek, adding, "She became more
5:13
aggressive when she saw the airport
5:15
staff video recording her nakedness
5:17
while she was battling to cover her body
5:19
as a result of her shirt that was torn
5:21
with her chest sexual organs completely
5:24
exposed." Comfort eman gave her own side
5:27
of the story in an 11-minute video she
5:30
posted on her Instagram profile on
5:32
Sunday, August 17th, 2025, which was
5:35
exactly after 1 week the incident
5:37
occurred. She said she was the one who
5:40
begged the co-passenger to help switch
5:42
off her phone when the plane was about
5:44
to take off at Huyo airport. Contrary to
5:46
the narratives painted by Ibomb Air
5:48
management that she refused to switch
5:50
off her phone and a co-passenger on
5:52
board the plane forcefully took the
5:54
phone from her and switched it off and

7:31
meeting of President Vladimir Putin of
7:33
Russia and President Donald Trump of the
7:35
United States on Friday in Alaska,
7:37
Ukrainian President Vadimir Zalinski has
7:40
said he knows the treachery of President
7:42
Putin that in the coming days, Russia
7:45
soldiers may try to increase pressure
7:48
and strikes against Ukrainian positions
7:50
in order to create more favorable
7:52
political circumstances for talks with
7:54
global actors. Zilinski made this
7:57
statement some hours ago while stating
7:59
that Ukrainian soldiers have achieved
8:01
some successes in Donesk region
8:04
especially in the areas of Dorilia and
8:06
Pocross then ordered the commander in
8:09
chief Alexander Cerski to speak with
8:11
combat commanders that Ukraine needs
8:13
strong positions and truly tangible
8:15
resistance to the enemy. In his words,
8:18
Zalinski said, "I received a report from
8:21
commander in chief Alexander Cerski. the
8:24
front, the defense of positions, and
8:27
up-to-date information on the intentions
8:29
and movements of the Russian army. We
8:32
are defending our positions along the
8:33
entire front line, and for the second
8:36
day in a row, we have achieved successes
8:38
in some extremely difficult areas in the
8:40
Donesk region in the direction of
8:43
Dogilia and Pocross. In particular, I
8:46
want to commend the units of the first
8:48
corps of the national guard of Ukraine
8:51
as of the units of the seventh core of
8:53
the air assault forces, the units of the
8:56
38th separate marine brigade named after
9:00
There is still no peace in sight after
9:02
nearly 3 hours of meeting held in
9:04
Anchorage City in Alaska, a state in the
9:07
United States, US between President
9:10
Vladimir Putin of Russia and President
9:12
Donald Trump of the United States. over
9:15
the war Russia launched since 2022 in
9:17
Ukraine which has led to thousands of
9:20
deaths mostly Ukrainians which President
9:22
Vladimir Zalinski of Ukraine who was not
9:25
invited for the meeting on Friday in a
9:28
statement said that it was time to end
9:30
the war but Russia must take the
9:31
necessary steps to a genuine peace deal
9:34
and while commenting on the statement
9:36
made by the president of Poland Carol
9:38
Navoki on Friday via exocial media
9:41
platform to mark Poland armed forces day
9:43
which coincided ided with the day Putin
9:46
and Trump met in Alaska. President
9:48
Zalinski said that Ukraine's
9:50
independence strengthens Poland's
9:52
independence and we must always remember
9:54
that the miracle on the Vistula was made
9:56
possible through joint efforts and it
9:59
saved Europe and the Polish president
10:01
Carol Navoki had said that. Today we
10:04
celebrate the 105th anniversary of the
10:07
great Polish victory at the battle of
10:09
Warsaw in 1920. The Polish army together
10:12
with Ukrainian forces successfully
10:14
repelled the Red Army's westward march,
10:17
safeguarding Europe from a communist
10:19
revolution. For centuries, Russian
10:21
imperialism has been a mortal threat to
10:23
our freedom. Poland's political
10:25
tradition teaches that Russian
10:27
expansionism rests on a legacy of
10:29
domestic co-contestants in the last
10:32
concluded general elections in Nigeria
10:34
and former governor of an amber state.
10:36
Peter Obi has faulted President Bola
10:38
Ahmed Tonubu trip to Brazil and also
10:41
condemned the president frequent travel
10:43
abroad at any slightest invitation and
10:45
abandoned pressing issues of insecurity
10:48
and other deplorable situations that
10:50
make the nation bleeds. Specifically,
10:52
Peter Obi said, "The situation we find
10:55
ourselves in is deeply worrisome. Our
10:58
president, who has not found it worthy
11:00
to visit any of our troubled states,
11:02
takes joy in traveling to foreign
11:04
countries at the slightest invitation or
11:06
excuse, often departing several days,
11:09
even before the events he's invited to.
11:12
The presidency had in a statement on
11:14
Wednesday said that President Bonatubu
11:16
will depart Abuja on Thursday, August
11:19
14th for a two-nation trip to Japan and
11:22
Brazil. The president will stop over in
11:24
Dubai, United Arab Emirates before
11:27
proceeding to Japan. In Japan, President
11:31
Tonubu will attend the 9th Tokyo
11:33
International Conference on African
11:35
Development, TICAD9,
11:37
in the city of Yokohama from August 20th
11:40
to 22 with the theme co-create
11:43
innovative solutions with Africa. TICAD9
11:47
will focus on Africa's economic
11:49
transformation and improvements in the
11:51
business environment and institutions
11:53
through private investment and
11:54
innovation. It will also promote a
11:57
resilient and sustainable African
11:59
society for federal government of
12:01
Nigeria under the leadership of
12:03
President Bola Ahmed Tonubu has ordered
12:05
the commissioner of police in charge of
12:07
Lagos airport to withdraw the one-sided
12:10
and obviously biased court case the
12:12
Nigeria police force may have wrongly
12:14
instituted against an Ibomb air
12:16
passenger comfort eman who was seen in
12:19
viral videos retaliating and defending
12:21
herself physically after a group of
12:23
Ibomb Air personnel and Lagos airport
12:26
team had attacked her and provoked her
12:28
to action. The FG position on the issue
12:31
was made known by the Nigeria Minister
12:33
of Aviation Fesus Cayamo in a press
12:36
release the minister signed and made
12:38
available few minutes ago. Although
12:40
Fesus Cayamo reversed himself and
12:43
acknowledged that the issue was a case
12:45
of confrontation between the 26 years
12:47
old passenger and the staff of Ibomb
12:50
Airlines, who in the new press release
12:52
admitted that the staff of Ibomb Air and
12:54
the Lagos airport authority team acted
12:57
wrongly, but the minister did not state
12:59
how the attacked passenger would be
13:01
compensated most, especially when her
13:03
chest sexual organs were seems to be
13:06
deliberately exposed after a suspected
13:08
Ibomb Airlines staff pulled pulled off
13:10
and tore the passenger shirt with
13:12
obvious intention to expose the
13:14
passenger's nakedness. The action of the
13:16
federal government may ease the tension
13:18
among millions of people who have
13:20
accused the Nigeria police force of
13:23
aiding and abetting the Ibomb airline
13:25
company to continue to attack and
13:27
oppress the offended passenger. Comfort
13:29
Bob who is Nigeria aviation minister
13:32
Fesus Cayamo says the ministry has
13:35
directed for the aviation staff who
13:37
released the video footage containing
13:39
the aspect of an Ibomb Airlines
13:41
passenger comfort eman or Bob seen in an
13:44
indecent appearance with her chest
13:46
sexual organs exposed after the
13:48
passenger shirt was torn by an Ibomb
13:50
airlines staff while security operatives
13:53
were seen in the viral video dragging
13:56
the agrieved passenger out of the
13:57
aircraft following an act of
13:59
confrontation between the passenger and
14:01
Ibomb Airlines hostesses which one of
14:04
the hostesses blocked the right of way
14:06
of the passenger and prevented the
14:08
passenger from disembarking from the
14:10
plane and after countless warning to the
14:12
airline passenger to leave the road. The
14:14
passenger went physical with the hostess
14:16
by allegedly slapping her on the face,
14:18
which the confrontation with the hostess
14:20
apparently led to the alleged
14:22
destruction of the plane divider cotton,
14:24
which Hbomb Airlines valued at $2,500.
14:28
As stated in count five of the five
14:30
count charges the police filed against
14:32
the passenger at a ka magistrate court
14:34
in Lagos state. The aviation minister
14:38
Fesus Cayamo who described the behavior
14:40
of the passenger as unruly said although
14:43
the airline staff is right to video
14:45
record the event of the passengers's
14:47
behavior for the purpose of legal action
14:50
but it is totally unacceptable for the
14:52
staff to release part of the video that
14:54
exposed the passenger's nakedness
14:55
especially her breasts. Details of the
14:58
minister statement reads, "A careful
15:01
study of the viral video involving the
15:03
Ibomb airline personnel, Lagos airport
15:06
security operatives and an agrieved
15:08
passenger, Comfort Emanson on board the
15:10
airline plane on Sunday indicated that
15:12
while the enraged passenger was being
15:15
dragged off the plane by three men who
15:18
held her two hands and legs, suspending
15:20
her a little bit on the air, a lady
15:23
putting on a bomb corporate clothes who
15:25
was behind the camera lens could be seen
15:27
in the video to have approached the
15:29
passenger at the door point of the plane
15:31
while the passenger was about to be
15:33
taken out, apparently dipped her hand
15:35
towards the waist part of the passenger,
15:37
untucked the passenger shirt from the
15:39
trousers, grabbed and pulled the
15:41
passenger's shirt towards her head and
15:43
in the process the passenger shirt got
15:46
tore and the passenger's chest sexual
15:48
organs or private parts were completely
15:50
exposed. The action of the Ibomb airline
15:53
staff appeared to be deliberate as the
15:55
airline female staff was not part of
15:57
those dragging the passenger off the
15:59
aircraft and after the female
16:01
passenger's body was exposed. The Ibomb
16:03
Airlines female staff never joined or
16:06
assisted the security operatives to drag
16:08
the passenger off the plane. This
16:10
indicated that the motive of the female
16:12
staff of Ibam Airline was solely to
16:15
remove the passenger shirt and expose
16:17
the agrieved airline passenger to
16:19
ridicule. The video of the passengers's
16:21
partial nakedness, especially her two
16:23
breasts completely exposed due to the
16:26
apparent action of a yet to be arrested
16:28
and prosecuted female staff of Ibam.

Management of National Youth Service
16:32
Corps under the leadership of Brigadier
16:34
General Olkunlay Nafu has given reasons
16:37
why a serving Nigeria Youth Corps member
16:40
Ashier Rita Auimay was denied NYSC
16:43
discharge certificate that could have
16:45
enabled her exit the one-year mandatory
16:47
program after she completed the one-year
16:49
paramilitary service to her nation as a
16:52
new graduate. And according to a
16:54
statement posted and made available by
16:56
NYSC on Sunday with no name of the
17:00
authority responsible for the press
17:02
statement written or mentioned in the
17:04
statement, the NYSC said core member
17:07
Rita Aui's discharge certificate was
17:09
withheld and her service year extended
17:11
by 2 months following her alleged
17:14
absence or failure to attend the April
17:17
2025 NYSC biometrics clearance at Etiosa
17:21
local government area secretariat. And
17:24
the month stated by NYC was barely few
17:27
days after the core member had cried out
17:30
loud in the month of March 2025 over the
17:33
apparent increasing high rates of hunger
17:35
as a result of rising costs of living in
17:38
Nigeria. And as such she described the
17:41
president Bola Ahmed Tonubu as a
17:43
terrible president in a swift reaction
