There is still no peace in sight after
0:32
nearly 3 hours of meeting held in
0:34
Anchorage City in Alaska, a state in the
0:37
United States, US between President
0:40
Vladimir Putin of Russia and President
0:42
Donald Trump of the United States. over
0:45
the war Russia launched since 2022 in
0:47
Ukraine which has led to thousands of
0:49
deaths mostly Ukrainians which President
0:52
Vladimir Zalinski of Ukraine who was not
0:55
invited for the meeting on Friday in a
0:57
statement said that it was time to end
0:59
the war but Russia must take the
1:01
necessary steps to a genuine peace deal
1:04
and while commenting on the statement
1:06
made by the president of Poland Carol
1:08
Navoki on Friday via exocial media
1:11
platform to mark Poland armed forces day
1:13
which coincided ided with the day Putin
1:15
and Trump met in Alaska. President
1:18
Zalinski said that Ukraine's
1:20
independence strengthens Poland's
1:22
independence and we must always remember
1:24
that the miracle on the Vistula was made
1:26
possible through joint efforts and it
1:28
saved Europe and the Polish president
1:31
Carol Navoki had said that. Today we
1:34
celebrate the 105th anniversary of the
1:36
great Polish victory at the battle of
1:38
Warsaw in 1920. The Polish army together
1:42
with Ukrainian forces successfully
1:44
repelled the Red Army's westward march,
1:47
safeguarding Europe from a communist
1:48
revolution. For centuries, Russian
1:51
imperialism has been a mortal threat to
1:53
our freedom. Poland's political
1:55
tradition teaches that Russian
1:57
expansionism rests on a legacy of
1:59
domestic desperatism in which the only
2:02
free man is the ruler himself. But
2:04
precisely because Russian desperatism is
2:06
the enemy of freedom, Russian
2:08
imperialism can only be defeated through
2:10
an alliance of free peoples. My nation
2:13
halted Russian imperialism at Oshia
2:22
It was probably a sinister of world
2:25
attention when Air Force One and Russia
2:27
presidential aircraft officially wheeled
2:29
down a joint base Elondorf as President
2:32
Donald Trump and President Vladimir
2:34
Putin met face to face for the first
2:36
time since the war in Ukraine started on
2:38
February 24th, 2022. And the Friday
2:42
meeting marked the first time President
2:44
Vladimir Putin of Russia was stepping on
2:46
Western country soil since he launched
2:48
the war against Ukraine. He was able to
2:51
meet Trump in Alaska because the US is
2:54
not a member country of the
2:55
International Criminal Court IC that
2:58
issued a warrant of arrest against the
3:00
Kremlin leader since 2023 over alleged
3:03
war crime in Ukraine. It would be
3:05
recalled that the Russian president
3:07
Vladimir Putin did not attend the 2025
3:11
annual Brazil, Russia, India, China, and
3:14
South Africa summit known as bricks
3:16
summit in Brazil due to concerns over an
3:19
international criminal court warrant for
3:21
his arrest in connection with alleged
3:23
war crimes committed in Ukraine.
3:25
According to the Kremlin aid Yuri
3:27
Ashikov, President Vladimir Putin did
3:30
not attend the summit due to certain
3:32
difficulties in the context of the ICC
3:35
requirement. Adding in that context, the
3:39
Brazilian government could not take a
3:40
clear position that would allow our
3:42
president to participate in this
3:44
meeting. Instead, the Russian leader
3:46
joined his BRICS colleagues via video
3:48
link. Putin was declared a war crimes
3:51
suspect since the ICC named him in a
3:54
March 2023 arrest warrant over the mass
3:57
deportation of Ukrainian children.
4:00
Co-contestants in the last concluded
4:02
general elections in Nigeria and former
4:04
governor of an amber state. Peter Obi
4:07
has faulted President Bola Ahmed Tonubu
4:09
trip to Brazil and also condemned the
4:11
president frequent travel abroad at any
4:14
slightest invitation and abandoned
4:16
pressing issues of insecurity and other
4:18
deplorable situations that make the
4:20
nation bleeds. Specifically, Peter Obi
4:23
said, "The situation we find ourselves
4:25
in is deeply worrisome. Our president,
4:28
who has not found it worthy to visit any
4:30
of our troubled states, takes joy in
4:33
traveling to foreign countries at the
4:35
slightest invitation or excuse, often
4:37
departing several days, even before the
4:39
events he's invited to. The presidency
4:42
had in a statement on Wednesday said
4:44
that President Bolanu will depart Abuja
4:47
on Thursday, August 14th for a
4:50
two-nation trip to Japan and Brazil. The
4:53
president will stop over in Dubai,
4:55
United Arab Emirates before proceeding
4:58
to Japan. In Japan, President Tonubu
5:01
will attend the 9th Tokyo International
5:03
Conference on African Development,
5:07
in the city of Yokohama from August 20th
5:10
to 22 with the theme co-create
5:13
innovative solutions with Africa. TICAD9
5:17
will focus on Africa's economic
5:19
transformation and improvements in the
5:21
business environment and institutions
5:23
through private investment and
5:24
innovation. It will also promote a
5:27
resilient and sustainable African
5:29
society for human security, peace, and
5:32
stability. In addition to attending
5:34
plenary sessions on themes linked to the
5:37
conference, the Nigerian president will
5:39
hold bilateral meetings and meet the
5:41
chief executive offices of some Japanese
5:43
companies with investments in Nigeria.
5:46
Initiated in 1993 by the Japanese
5:49
government and co-hosted by the United
5:52
Nations, UNDP, the African Union
5:55
Commission and the World Bank, TICAD is
5:58
a trienal conference held alternately in
6:01
Japan and Africa. The last one took
6:03
place in August 2022 in Tunisia. The
6:07
forum fosters high level policy dialogue
6:10
between African leaders and development
6:12
partners. At the end of the TICAD9,
6:16
President Tonubu will leave for
6:18
Brazilia, the capital of the Federated
6:20
Republic of Brazil on a 2-day state
6:22
visit from Sunday, August 24th to
6:25
Monday, August 25th. This follows an
6:28
invitation by the Brazilian president
6:31
Luis Anatio Luna Dar Silva. While in
6:34
Brazil, President Tonubu will hold a
6:36
bilateral meeting with his host and
6:38
attend a business forum with Brazilian
6:40
investors. His delegation comprising key
6:44
ministers and senior officials will
6:46
explore opportunities to strengthen
6:48
cooperation and sign agreements and
6:50
memorand of understanding mouse with the
6:53
Brazilian government. Beo Onuga, special
6:56
adviser to the president on information
6:58
and strategy stated on August 13th,
7:02
Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential
7:05
candidate in the last concluded general
7:07
elections in the West Africa country in
7:10
a statement on Thursday said, "Again,
7:12
our president moves as the nation
7:14
bleeds. Amid the deplorable state of our
7:17
nation in all ramifications, we have a
7:20
virtually indifferent president who has
7:22
continued to display insensitivity to
7:24
our situation. How can anyone explain
7:27
that a president who came from Brazil
7:29
recently and met federal government of
7:31
Nigeria under the leadership of
7:33
President Bola Ahmed Tonubu has ordered
7:35
the commissioner of police in charge of
7:37
Lagos airport to withdraw the one-sided
7:40
and obviously biased court case the
7:42
Nigeria police force may have wrongly
7:44
instituted against an Ibomb Air
7:46
passenger comfort eman who was seen in
7:49
viral videos retaliating and defending
7:51
herself physically after a group of
7:53
Ibomb air personnel and Lagos OS airport
7:56
team had attacked her and provoked her
7:58
to action. The FG position on the issue
8:00
was made known by the Nigeria Minister
8:03
of Aviation Fesus Cayamo in a press
8:06
release the minister signed and made
8:08
available few minutes ago. Although
8:10
Fesus Cayamo reversed himself and
8:13
acknowledged that the issue was a case
8:14
of confrontation between the 26 years
8:17
old passenger and the staff of Ibomb
8:20
Airlines who in the new press release
8:22
admitted that the staff of Ibomb Air and
8:24
the Lagos airport authority team acted
8:26
wrongly. But the minister did not state
8:29
how the attacked passenger would be
8:31
compensated most, especially when her
8:33
chest sexual organs were seems to be
8:36
deliberately exposed after a suspected
8:38
Ibomb Airlines staff pulled off and tore
8:40
the passenger shirt with obvious
8:42
intention to expose the passengers's
8:44
nakedness. The action of the federal
8:46
government may ease the tension among
8:49
millions of people who have accused the
8:51
Nigeria police force of aiding and
8:53
abetting the Ibomb airline company to
8:55
continue to attack and oppress the
8:57
offended passenger. Comfort Bob who is
9:00
also identified as comfort eman by thus
9:03
supporting the statement of Ibomb air
9:05
management who in their first press
9:07
release made statement that seems to
9:10
have some level of deliberate falsehood
9:12
and raising up a dead issue to win undue
9:14
public sentiments manipulate the Nigeria
9:17
police force to help them secure
9:19
detention holding charge from the Lagos
9:21
state magistrate court to further
9:23
oppress and intimidate the attacked
9:25
passenger specifically Ibamair stated in
9:28
her first press release that shortly
9:30
after the plane landed at Lagos airport,
9:33
the passenger waited for every other
9:34
passenger on board the plane to
9:36
disembark and thereafter without
9:38
provocation went to one of the plane
9:40
hostesses Juliana Edward the Ibomb air
9:43
management described as Perser stepped
9:46
on her forcibly tore off her wig,
9:49
removed her glasses and threw it to the
9:50
floor and used her footwear to assault
9:53
her. She slapped her several times and
9:55
when the other cabin crew member tried
9:57
to intervene, she slapped her too. She
10:00
then attempted to forcibly remove a fire
10:02
extinguisher to use as a weapon, an act
10:05
that could have damaged and grounded the
10:07
aircraft. Soon after the Ibomb Air
10:09
Management released the statement on
10:11
Monday, a video surfaced on the internet
10:13
that probably invalidated the statement
10:16
of the Ibomb Air Management and stood
10:18
out as an acceptable evidence that the
10:20
management of Ibomb Air are people who
10:22
may be rightly described as pathological
10:24
liars who probably believed in telling
10:27
lies as a way of managing crisis and
10:29
handling difficult customers relations.
10:32
As seen in the viral video that surfaced
10:34
the internet after the apparent
10:36
falsehood of Ibomb Air Management, the
10:38
attacked passenger was seen politely
10:40
telling the air hostess Juliana Edward
10:43
to leave the doorway so that she can
10:44
disembark from the plane. The senior
10:46
aggressor in this matter. The air
10:48
hostess Juliana Edward refused to yield
10:51
to the appeal of the passenger and Ibomb
10:53
Air Management in their first press
10:55
release confirmed that the air hostess
10:57
Juliana Edward deliberately blocked the
10:59
door. Nigeria Aviation Minister Fesus
11:03
Cayamo says the ministry has directed
11:05
for the aviation staff who released the
11:07
video footage containing the aspect of
11:09
an Ibomb Airlines passenger comfort eman
11:13
or Bob seen in an indecent appearance
11:15
with her chest sexual organs exposed
11:17
after the passenger shirt was torn by an
11:20
Ibomb Airlines staff while security
11:22
operatives were seen in the viral video
11:25
dragging the agrieved passenger out of
11:27
the aircraft following an act of
11:29
confrontation. ation between the
11:31
passenger and Ibomb Airlines hostesses
11:33
which one of the hostesses blocked the
11:35
right of way of the passenger and
11:37
prevented the passenger from
11:38
disembarking from the plane and after
11:40
countless warning to the airline
11:42
passenger to leave the road. The
11:44
passenger went physical with the hostess
11:46
by allegedly slapping her on the face,
11:48
which the confrontation with the hostess
11:50
apparently led to the alleged
11:52
destruction of the plane divider cotton,
11:54
which Hbomb Airlines valued at $2,500,
11:57
as stated in count five of the fivecount
12:00
charges the police filed against the
12:02
passenger at a Kedar magistrate court in
12:04
Lagos State. The aviation minister Fesus
12:08
Cayamo who described the behavior of the
12:10
passenger as unruly said although the
12:13
airline staff is right to video record
12:15
the event of the passengers's behavior
12:17
for the purpose of legal action but it
12:20
is totally unacceptable for the staff to
12:22
release part of the video that exposed
12:24
the passenger's nakedness especially her
12:26
breasts. Details of the minister
12:29
statement reads verbatim below, "Enough
12:31
is enough. Reading the riot act on
12:34
aviation safety and security in
12:36
reference to the case of unruly comfort
12:38
bob on Ibomb airline and related
12:40
incidents." Earlier today, we again woke
12:43
up to viral videos of a female passenger
12:46
on Ibomb airline, now identified as
12:48
Comfort Eman or Comfort Bob, who went
12:51
berserk and physically assaulted both
12:52
the flight crew and the ground staff.
12:55
The incident took place yesterday,
12:57
August 10th, 2025 on Ibomb Airline
13:00
flight number Q 153 from Ouyo to Lagos
13:04
at about 1454 hours. Ibomb Airline has
13:08
since issued a statement to provide some
13:11
context to the effect that the whole
13:12
unfortunate incident arose because of
13:15
the refusal of the passenger to switch
13:17
off her phone during takeoff as required
13:19
by extent international civil aviation
13:23
Consequently, in the last few hours, I
13:26
have been speaking with the commissioner
13:28
of police of the airport police command,
13:30
the DG of the NCAA and his team, the MD
13:33
of FAN and her team, the COO of Ibomb
13:36
Air and his team about the incident.
13:39
Apart from the indefinite flight ban
13:41
imposed on the said unruly passenger
13:43
both local and international by the
13:46
Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority NCAA
13:50
the police has promptly arraigned her
13:52
this morning at the Aeda magistrate's
13:54
court for criminal offenses and remanded
13:56
her at Kirki prisons as she could not
13:58
provide adequate shities in court. I
14:01
have attached the charge sheet and
14:03
remand order for clarity. We also note
14:06
the scuffle that took place between the
14:08
unruly passenger and ground personnel
14:10
before she was eventually subdued. This
14:13
was because of her uncooperative
14:15
attitude. Whilst we support the filming
14:17
of her recalcitrant behavior as evidence
14:20
to prosecute her, what is deplorable is
14:22
to release such evidence containing
14:24
indecent exposure to the public to
14:26
ridicule her. That is totally
14:28
unacceptable to us. A careful study of
14:31
the viral video involving the Ibomb
14:33
airline personnel, Lagos airport
14:35
security operatives and an agrieved
14:37
passenger, Comfort Eman on board the
14:40
airline plane on Sunday, indicated that
14:42
while the enraged passenger was being
14:45
dragged off the plane by three men who
14:48
held her two hands and legs, suspending
14:50
her a little bit on the air, a lady
14:52
putting on a bomb corporate clothes who
14:55
was behind the camera lens could be seen
14:57
in the video to have approached the
14:58
passenger at the door point of the plane
15:01
while the passenger was about to be
15:03
taken out. Apparently dipped her hand
15:05
towards the waist part of the passenger,
15:07
untucked the passenger shirt from the
15:09
trousers, grabbed and pulled the
15:11
passenger's shirt towards her head and
15:13
in the process the passenger shirt got
15:15
tore and the passenger's chest sexual
15:17
organs or private parts were completely
15:20
exposed. The action of the Ibomb airline
15:22
staff appeared to be deliberate as the
15:25
airline female staff was not part of
15:27
those dragging the passenger off the
15:29
aircraft and after the female
15:31
passenger's body was exposed. The Ibomb
15:33
Airlines female staff never joined or
15:36
assisted the security operatives to drag
15:38
the passenger off the plane. This
15:40
indicated that the motive of the female
15:42
staff of Ibam Airline was solely to
15:44
remove the passenger shirt and expose
15:46
the agrieved airline passenger to
15:48
ridicule. The video of the passenger's
15:51
partial nakedness, especially her two
15:53
breasts, completely exposed due to the
15:55
apparent action of a yet to be arrested
15:57
and prosecuted female staff of Ibomb
16:00
Airlines has since gone viral with some
16:02
pornographic channels already updating
16:04
their channels with the partial
16:06
nakedness of the Ibomb Airlines
16:08
passenger. According to Punch newspaper,
16:11
Comfort Eman, the passenger accused of
16:14
assaulting airline officials aboard an
16:16
Ibomb Air flight from Uuyo to Lagos has
16:18
been charged in court and remanded in
16:20
Kirki Correctional Center in Lagos.
16:23
Tundday Mashie, special adviser on media
16:26
and communications to the minister of
16:28
aviation and aerospace development,
16:31
Fesus Cayamo San confirmed the
16:34
development in a post on his official X
16:36
handle on Monday. The more reason the
16:38
flying public should be more careful.
16:41
The unruly passenger on the Yuyo
16:43
Lagosbound Ibomb Air Miss Comfort Eman
16:46
has been charged to court and she's now
16:48
cooling off in Kirk Kiri. Mashie wrote,
16:51
"Ibomb Air in a press statement on
16:53
Monday said that Ibam Air confirms that
16:56
on Sunday, August 10th, 2025, an
17:00
incident occurred on board our UYO Lagos
17:02
flight involving a passenger, Comfort
17:05
Eman, whose conduct posed a serious
17:07
threat to the safety of our crew,
17:09
passengers, and aircraft. Shortly before
17:13
takeoff from Ouyo, Emanson was
17:15
instructed in line with standard
17:17
aviation safety procedures to switch off
17:19
her mobile phone. She bluntly refused to
17:22
comply until the pilot in command made
17:25
an announcement after which a fellow
17:27
passenger seated beside her took the
17:29
phone and switched it off. This action
17:32
prompted a verbal tirade from Eman. The
17:35
situation was eventually calmed and the
17:37
flight departed as scheduled. Upon
17:40
arrival in Lagos, Emanson waited for all
17:43
other passengers to disembark and then
17:45
proceeded to confront the person who had
17:47
earlier instructed her. She walked up to
17:50
the unsuspecting person, stepped on her,
17:53
forcibly tore off her wig, removed her
17:55
glasses and threw it to the floor and
17:57
used her footwear to assault her.
18:00
Management of National Youth Service
18:02
Corps under the leadership of Brigadier
18:04
General Olukunlay Nafu has given reasons
18:07
why a serving Nigeria Youth Corps member
18:09
Ashier Rita Auimay was denied NYC
18:13
discharge certificate that could have
18:14
enabled her exit the one-year mandatory
18:17
program after she completed the one-year
18:19
paramilitary service to her nation as a
18:21
new graduate. And according to a
18:24
statement posted and made available by
18:26
NYSC on Sunday with no name of the
18:29
authority responsible for the press
18:32
statement written or mentioned in the
18:34
statement, the NYSC said core member
18:36
Rita Aui's discharge certificate was
18:39
withheld and her service year extended
18:41
by 2 months following her alleged
18:44
absence or failure to attend the April
18:46
2025 NYSC biometrics clearance at Etiosa
18:51
local government area secretariat and
18:54
the month stated by NYC was barely few
18:57
days after the core member had cried out
18:59
loud in the month of March 2025 over the
19:02
apparent increasing high rates of hunger
19:05
as a result of rising costs of living in
19:08
Nigeria and as such she described the
19:11
president Bola Ahmed Tonubu as a
19:13
terrible president in a swift reaction
19:15
to the reason given by NYSC Rita

19:34
service period and withhold the
19:36
certificate of national service of core
19:38
member Ashier Rita Auimay alias Ray does
19:41
not represent the truth of the matter
19:44
saying on April 7th 2025 Rita was
19:48
physically present at the local
19:49
government secretariat for the headcount
19:51
and clearance. But the NYSC official at
19:54
the local government level deliberately
19:56
refused to attend to her even after 6
19:59
hours waiting during which she was asked
20:01
to go back and queued up on the line
20:03
repeatedly. The NYC official still
20:06
refused to attend to her and thereafter
20:08
on April 11th, 2025, the core member
20:12
went to meet the NYSC official and
20:14
begged her to allow her perform her
20:16
April 2025 biometrics clearance. The
20:20
NYSC female official refused and asked
20:23
the core member to leave. This Amnesty
20:26
International said the National Youth
20:28
Service Corp. NYSC must rescend its
20:31
decision. The Amnesty International
20:33
described as arbitrary and outrageous,
20:35
saying NYC allegedly used bureaucratic
20:38
tricks to extend the core member
20:40
national service year over the
20:42
government's unacceptable intolerance of
20:45
dissenting voices with former Nigeria
20:47
Vice President Atiku Abuakar describing
20:50
the NYSC action as impunity and as such
20:54
cautioned the government against
20:55
subjecting everything to politics. And
20:57
on Monday morning, the former governor
20:59
of an amber state, Peter Obi, issued a
21:02
statement and said, "In our country
21:04
today, hunger and poverty are not just
21:06
distant statistics. They are the harsh
21:09
reality that millions of our people face
21:11
daily." Recently the United Nations
21:13
stated that about 34 million Nigerians
21:16
will face acute food insecurity and
21:19
about 63% of our population which is
21:22
about 133 million people now live in
21:26
multi-dimensional poverty inflation even
21:28
with the suppressed statistics
