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 I'm
3:30
a drug addict. What other name can you call me? A prostitute. Must things go
3:35
completely south if partners are no longer interested." Ned Nakco in a statement issued last month in October
3:43
said, "Reginina was not always like this. Her current battle with drugs and
3:48
alcohol abuse is the root of our problem. She must continue her rehabilitation program or I fear for her
3:55
life and safety. Now she has moved to a place where she will have unrestricted access to drugs. I have other wives and
4:03
none will ever accuse me of violence. Regina is the violent one here, slapping
4:09
and hitting three staff in the past 48 hours and destroying property, including cars and windows, for no just cause. The
4:18
truth is, I have set a clear condition for her to accept rehab in Asakoro or outside Nigeria, especially Jordan,
4:25
where she will not have access to drugs. A clear-headed Regina would have taken
4:30
Moon to the hospital, but instead she even threatened to kill our resident nurse for exposing her drugs abuse.
4:37
While I took Moon to the hospital, a scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina's main
4:44
drug supplier. Another known supplier of drugs to Regina is the tiny evil devil
4:50
called Anne. A gift. You wanted a a crown. You wanted somebody with high star so they can
4:56
boost your own your falling star. You wanted a high star to boost your falling star. I swallowed it. I kept I was
5:03
covering you. Now you have said when you went up you will come down. If you think you can bite the finger that I said you
5:10

5:23

6:39
[Music] Shame on you.

Can you imagine? Can you imagine this?
7:05
bringing you the news in a more digital way. Fellow contestants in the last
7:10
concluded presidential election in Nigeria and an amber state former governor Peter Obi has said that the
7:16
current president of Nigeria Bola Ahmed Tonubu le government lacks the passion
7:21
to stop the unwarranted killing of people in manners of criminal acts including terrorism stressing that while
7:29
the insecurity did not start with the present government what is most unfortunate is the lack and absence of
7:35
competence commitment prudent use of resources is patriotism and passion on the part of APC. APCled government
7:43
leaders to effectively govern, galvanize and led Nigeria where no one is unwarrantedly oppressed and killed. A
7:51
nation where peace, truth, and justice reign. This Peter Obi stated via his
7:56
social media accounts on Monday evening in response to the United States. US
8:02
President Donald Trump announced plans to launch US military action in Nigeria
8:07
to wipe out terrorists killing Christians in the West Africa country. According to Peter Obi, the recent
8:14
pronouncement by the US government declaring Nigeria a country of particular concern CPC and indicating
8:21
possible military action should give every well-meaning Nigerian serious concern. There is no doubt that Nigeria
8:28
is experiencing an unprecedented level of insecurity with attendant carnage and the most shocking loss of lives and
8:35
property. According to Amnesty International, over 10,000 people have
8:40
been killed in Nigeria since May 2023. And as I have repeatedly lamented, the
8:46
unwarranted and unprovoked killing of Nigerians is most condemnable, and all efforts must be made to bring it to a
8:52
stop. It is equally important to state that the terrible situation is significantly avoidable with competent
8:59
leadership and governance. While the insecurity did not start with the present government, what is most
9:05
unfortunate is the lack and absence of competence, commitment, prudent use of resources, patriotism and passion on the
9:12
part of APC, APCled government leaders to effectively govern, galvanize and led
9:19
Nigeria where no one is unwarrantedly oppressed and killed. A nation where peace, truth, and justice reign. As
9:27
democracies, Nigeria and the US have long been strategic partners committed to regional peace and security. That
9:34
relationship should not falter. The present situation calls for constructive diplomatic and any other plausible
9:41
engagement by both nations aimed at addressing the prevailing and disturbing security concerns. Both countries must
9:48
work in concert and expeditiously towards that purpose. Peter Obi had earlier on October 28th, 2025 condemned
9:56
the Nigeria government over rising criminal acts in drug abuse related crimes, saying when criminals can now
10:03
use the country logistics companies to distribute narcotics across the country, it shows how weak the government
10:09
institutions in Nigeria have become. The recent revelation that drug traffickers
10:15
have infiltrated Nigeria's courier and delivery services sector is worrisome and another sad reminder of how deep our
10:21
national decay has become. When criminal networks can now use logistics companies
10:27
to distribute narcotics across the country, it shows how weak our institutions and relevant monitoring
10:33
systems are. The Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA,
10:39
has repeatedly raised concern about this trend. Yet, it continues to grow, apparently aided by corruption and poor
10:46
regulation that have turned the enforcement body into a joke. Drug trafficking remains a big danger to
10:52
society and a serious international offense that cannot be overlooked. It destroys families, fuels crime, and
10:59
corrods the conscience of a nation. A country already battling insecurity,
11:04
large youth unemployment and hunger cannot afford a drug normalized culture.
11:10
Nigeria therefore needs stronger oversight and must rise above this
11:15
dangerous decline and rebuild a system where laws are sacred, leaders are accountable, and no one is above
11:22
justice. Nigeria will only heal when character, truth, and responsibility
11:27
return to governance.
11:32
bringing you the news in a more digital way. Barristister Jefferson Muhayan, a human
11:38
right lawyer and a political activist has said nothing wrong if it takes the intervention of the United States, US
11:45
President Donald Trump to end the raging fires of insecurity, institutional
11:50
wickedness and terrorism in Nigeria. The legal practitioner stated this in numbers of posts he published through
11:57
his personal social media platform since President Donald Trump announced US
12:02
intention to launch military action in Nigeria to wipe out terrorists killing
12:07
Christians in the West Africa country saying if America's saber rattling
12:12
military threat is the dirty water needed to flush this country clean or quench the raging fires of institutional
12:19
wickedness, insecurity and terrorism. So be it. According to barrista Jefferson
12:26
Muhayeran, dirty water day quench fire. Nobody, yes, nobody deserves to die in
12:32
the hands of terrorists. If it takes Trump's intervention to wake up disgraceful governments to act swiftly,
12:39
vigorously, patriotically, and responsibly, so be it. The primary
12:44
business of government is the safety and protection of the lives and properties of citizens, whether Christians or
12:50
Muslims. If America's saber rattling is the dirty water needed to flush this
12:56
country clean or quench the raging fires of institutional wickedness, insecurity
13:01
and terrorism, so be it. Now government way serious citizens day loyal for a
13:08
country of concern to disgraced country. How did we get here? This is the lowest
13:13
of lows in Nigeria America relations. A country we ditched the UK for and
13:18
adopted its system of government. practically everything. This is not really about Trump. It's more about how
13:25
we treat crime, punishment, and our bogus criminal justice system. The
13:31
government has surrounded itself with fing and incompetent advisers who see
13:36
national security only through narrow tribal prisms and ritualism, adept at creating enemies for the government
13:43
instead of friends. No attempt at consiliative politics or national unity.
13:48
Almost 3 years. There are no ambassadors to major countries. Our foreign policy
13:54
chiefs are torn between transactional politics of financial safe heavens or alignment with non-aligned low energy
14:00
Caribbean countries. Our domestic policy leans more towards appeasement of fading
14:06
potentates rather than the enforcement of nation building rules. We can't continue this way. Either we sit down
14:13
and talk or others will do the talking to us. A collapsed or exploding Nigeria
14:19
is a threat to global peace and a humongous humanitarian disaster that must be avoided at all cost. We are
14:26
almost at the gate. Where's the break? We had reported that Ogan stateborn princess Olira Majo Dunanu has reacted
14:34
over the description of Nigeria as a disgraced country by President Donald
14:39
Trump of the United States US saying the greatest contribution the United States
14:45
and its allies can make at this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of visionary,
14:51
credible and people centered Nigerian leaders, not the preservation of a kleptocratic status quo that has
14:58
entrenched poverty, division, and despair. Calling on the international community for the urgent need to uphold
15:04
democracy and human dignity amid President Trump's plans to begin US military actions in Nigeria to end the
15:11
killing of Christians in Nigeria. We had also reported that President Donald Trump of the United States of America
15:18
has placed US soldiers on red alert for possible war in Nigeria. According to
15:23
President Trump, the US Department of War should prepare US troops for possible military action in Nigeria. If
15:30
the Nigerian government continued to allow the killing of Christians, the US troops may very well go into that now
15:37
disgraced country, guns a blazing, to completely wipe out the Islamic
15:43
terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. This President Trump issued on Saturday evening in line
15:50
with Greenwich Meridian Time after President Bola Ahmed Tonubu personally signed a statement rejecting Trump
15:57
earlier claim on Friday that Christians are being targeted and killed in Nigeria. Although President Bola Ahmed
16:04
Tanubu disagreed with Trump who had described the high level of insecurity in Nigeria as a religious war by Islamic
16:12
terrorists against Christians. But some Nigerians quickly took to the comments
16:17
section of President Bola Ahmed Tonubu post on ex social media platform and
16:23
pasted a screenshot of a tweet published by President Bola Ahmed Tonubu on January 29th, 2014 wherein President
16:32
Bola Ahmed Tonubu apparently had long accepted and agreed that the insecurity in Nigeria is possibly a religious war
16:40
against Christians in the West Africa country verbatim in In the tweet, Tonubu
16:46
said, "The slaughtering of Christian worshippers is strongly condemnable. It calls to question the competence of
16:52
Jonathan, then president of Nigeria to protect Nigerians." This old statement by President Bola Ahmed Tonubu indicated
16:59
that President Donald Trump of the United States of America may not be the first person to describe the insecurity
17:06
in Nigeria as a religious war against Christian communities in the West Africa country.
17:16
[Music] Lagos state command of the Nigeria
17:21
police force has declared the founder and publisher of Sahare reporters news media
17:27
saware wanted for organizing protest in Lagos state which the Lagos state
17:32
commissioner of police Mashu Jimo said Saware has allegedly committed the offense of breach of public peace and
17:39
the police commissioner thereafter confirmed the arrest of 13 persons he described as vagabonds and miscreants as
17:45
group of people came out on Monday morning to protest against the demolition of their settlements after
17:51
their houses at the Koka and Oilari areas of a Warren Shaki community in Casaf local government area of Lagos
17:58
State were brought down at midnight on Saturday, hours after the state government announced that it had
18:04
compensated about 80 property owners on Friday, forcing some concerned citizens
18:09
to condemn the government for displacing families without a clear plan for relocation and reintegration into the
18:16
housing system. This Ammy Saware in an on the spot video statement made on
18:21
Monday at the scene of the protest said he could not come down from the vehicle because he had a privileged information
18:28
that there was plans to kill him if he comes out openly during the protest. According to Saware, the action of the
18:35
police explained why President Donald Trump of the United States. US is considering military action in Nigeria
18:42
because the US president has seen weak leadership and leaders do not mean well for the people. According to the Lagos
18:49
State Police Commissioner, I hereby as the commissioner of police, Lagos State Police Command declare so wanted. I
18:57
declare him wanted for causing disturbance of public peace and an act to commit a felony by planning and
19:03
putting all the plans in motion to block the third mainland bridge to cause hardship for Largoians and other
19:09
Nigerians, more especially visitors who are transients through this end. We will
19:15
not allow that. We are closing in on him. Anywhere he is, he should know that
19:20
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
19:28
Abuja. He should come down wherever he is. He should report himself to the
19:33
nearest police station. We are going to arrest him, investigate him, and prosecute him. The commissioner of
19:40
police said massive deployment of police personnel had been made, not just to the third mainland bridge, but also to other
19:47
parts of the state where coordinated protests are likely to hold. The police
19:52
boss stressed that this location is vital to the city's economy and the well-being of commuters. We will not
19:59
allow any action, peaceful or otherwise, that seeks to block the bridge and disrupt livelihoods. Any attempt to
20:06
obstruct the Third mainland Bridge is a direct threat to public safety and national infrastructure.
20:12
Anyone attempting to disturb public peace will be arrested, investigated, and prosecuted. Lagos is the heartbeat
20:19
of Nigeria's economy and we cannot afford chaos here. We have arrested 13
20:25
suspects who are vagabonds and miscreants who wanted to cause mayhem in Lagos state. Sare in a statement with a
20:32
video attachment said, "I recorded this video at the scene of the attack on peaceful protesters by Nigeria police
20:40
force in Lagos during today's Awaren anti-demolition protest which they
20:45
handled in the usual despicable and unconscionable manner. The Lagos police commissioner Mushu Jimmo has reportedly
20:52
declared me wanted for disturbance of public peace allegedly as a result of
20:58
his offic's inability to execute a shoot on site order given by his illegal IGP
21:05
car yode ebetoken in a waraki today. Despite my repeated attempts to contact
21:11
Nigeria police force commissioner Jimmo, he has not taken my calls. Nevertheless,
21:16
I plan to meet with him soon to address his declaration revolution. Now
21:23
issue report at the nearest police station. I hereby as the commissioner of police state police command declare so
21:30
wanted. I declar wanted for the act of
21:35
causing the sub of public peace and an an act to commit serious salony
21:42
by planning and putting all the planning emotions to traffic on the terminosian
21:50
and other Nigerians and meing visitors who are transiting through this head. We will not allow this to happen. These are
21:57
the equipment and we sure that we are closing it on him. Anywhere he is, he should be aware that we are closing on
22:03
him. We learn he's doing video and he couldn't come down. Let him come down. He came down in Abuja. Why is he afraid
22:09
to come down in Lagos? He should come down. He come wherever he is, he should report himself to the nearest police
22:14
station because I'm going to arrest him and investigate him and prosecute him. Thank you. We are made 13 arrest of this
22:21
mistrant and good luck because there's no any reason why this protest must take
22:27
place. The people who are concerned who are resident of okay have been paid compensation by government for those who
22:34
deserve uh who entitled rather to the compensation and the people have remained in peace and they've been
22:39
leaving the peace in the community but he's coming to Lagos to instigate crisis to violence will not be tolerated and I
22:46
want all the to go about their local businesses without any fear or let it
22:52
come down let him put his leg on ground he's riding in a vehicle and is making video that police cover everywhere and
22:58
they can't come down in the same way police cover everywhere that I came down in Abuja. Let it come down. Let me come down here and you will see uh the the
23:05
wrath of the Lord that will equally be emphased
23:21
peaceful protesters who has who who they demolish their houses in area of
23:27
Lagos and uh I think they had intelligence that I was I approaching the place as
23:33
you see captured. They just tear gasing them and they brought in more reinforcements.
23:38
All of them were carrying leader weapons. This is what we're talking about uh about Nigeria at this time. The
23:47
police that thought to be protecting the citizens of Nigeria are busy chasing after and attacking innocent civilians.
23:56
People who they don't build houses for, people they do nothing for. They're attacking them and this is what you just
24:03
you just watch live on my on my on my timeline now. So we couldn't enter the
24:10
community. The whole place is barricaded. Uh these are some of the demolitions that they've carried out.
24:16
And uh they relate to homes of poor people. This is where the poor people
24:22
have managed to run after the rich people drove them away from Makoko and
24:27
other places. We were told that the IGP, the illegal IGP, actually impaired in
24:34
the police uh team to the people who could shoot and kill me if I showed up.
24:39
But I still went there regardless. This is intelligence I had. Uh so right now
24:45
we'll be monitoring events as they're happening and uh time permitting we'll
24:51
return back to that community. We must fight for these people and ensure that they get what is theirs back. We cannot
24:58
leave this country in the hands of criminals to keep exploiting the poor. That is what got us into where we are
25:04
today. That is what led to what America uh decided could be their intervention
25:11
because they've seen weak and terrible leadership in Nigeria. They know that these guys don't mean well for
25:17
Nigerians, but that doesn't mean that America mean well for Nigerians. They just taking advantage of the weakness in
25:23
the leaders. Some of them are bringing you the news in a more digital
25:29
way. Ogan stateborn princess Olira Majo Dunaneru has reacted over the
25:35
description of Nigeria as a disgraced country by President Donald Trump of the
25:40
United States US saying the greatest contribution the United States and its
25:46
allies can make at this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of visionary, credible and
25:53

25:59
division and despair. Calling on the international community for the urgent need to uphold democracy and human
26:06
dignity amid President Trump's plans to begin US military actions in Nigeria to
26:11
end the killing of Christians in Nigeria. While reacting to the recent remarks by President Donald Trump
26:17
portraying Nigeria as a disgraced country, Princess Oliverra acknowledged
26:22
the deep governance challenges confronting Africa's most populous nation, but emphasized that Nigeria's
26:29
struggle is not one of Christian targeted conflict, but one of governance, justice, and humanity
26:35
itself. The greatest contribution the United States and its allies can make at
26:40
this pivotal moment is to support the genuine democratic emergence of visionary, credible and people centered
26:46
Nigerian leaders, not the preservation of a kleptocratic status quo that has entrenched poverty, division and
26:53
despair. True partnership must empower integrity and merit, not those who have
26:58
rigged themselves into power through corruption and coercion. Princess Ola Terra called for global collaboration to
27:06
restore faith in governance and strengthen democratic institutions, noting that Nigeria's stability and
27:12
progress are critical not only for its citizens but for Africa and the world at large. Only through principled
27:19
engagement and unwavering support for democracy can Nigeria's citizens rebuild their nation in peace and dignity, free
27:26
from the devastation of renewed conflict. I look forward to continued dialogue, progressive cooperation and a
27:33
shared vision for humanity, she concluded. We have reported that President Donald Trump of the United
27:39
States of America has placed US soldiers on red alert for possible war in Nigeria. According to President Trump,

government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the USA will immediately stop all aid and assistance
31:51
to Nigeria and may very well go into that now disgraced country guns a blazing to completely wipe out the
31:58
Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our department of war to
32:05
prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and
32:10
sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our cherished Christians. Warning, the Nigerian government better
32:17
move fast. According to President Bola Ahmed Tonubu, Nigeria stands firmly as a
32:23
democracy governed by constitutional guarantees of religious liberty. Since
32:28
2023, our administration has maintained an open and active engagement with
32:34
Christian and Muslim leaders alike and continues to address security challenges which affect citizens across faiths and
32:40
regions. The characterization of Nigeria as religiously intolerant does not
32:45
reflect our national reality. Nor does it take into consideration the consistent and sincere efforts of the
32:51
government to safeguard freedom of religion and beliefs for all Nigerians. Religious freedom and tolerance have
32:58
been a core tenant of our collective identity and shall always remain so. Nigeria opposes religious persecution
33:06
and does not encourage it. Nigeria is a country with constitutional guarantees to protect citizens of all faiths. Our
33:14
administration is committed to working with the United States government and the international community to deepen
33:20
understanding and cooperation on protection of communities of all faiths.
33:25
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a tweet on Friday had said that the
33:30
ongoing slaughter of thousands of Christians in Nigeria by radical Islamists and fani ethnic militias is
33:36
both tragic and unacceptable. As president of the United States said, "The United States stands ready,
33:45
willing, and able to act." In a swift reaction, Nigeria presidential
33:50
spokesperson Beao Anonuga replied to the tweet and said that dear Secretary
33:55
Rubio, there is no ongoing slaughter of thousands of Christians in Nigeria. This
34:00
is a gross exaggeration of the Nigerian situation. What we do have are sporadic
34:05
attacks on some villages by bandits and terrorists and the attacks are religiously insensitive.
34:11
Christians, Muslims, churches and mosques are attacked randomly. What our
34:16
country requires from America is military support to fight these violent extremists in some states of our
34:22
country, not designation as a nation of particular concern. Secretary Rubio,
34:28
Muslim lives matter too. President Donald Trump in a statement through his truth social media platform on Friday
34:35
had said, "Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands
34:41
of Christians are being killed. Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a
34:49
country of particular concern. But that is the least of it. When Christians or
34:54
any such group is slaughtered like is happening in Nigeria 3,100 versus 4,476
35:03
worldwide. Something must be done. I am asking Congressman Riley Moore together
35:09
with Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee to immediately look into this matter and report back to
35:16
me. The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in
35:21
Nigeria and numerous other countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save
35:27
our great Christian population around the world. Bringing
35:34
you the news in a more digital way. bringing you the news in a more digital
