SAR on Sunday while Nasra the chairman of Yemen's Saba news agency and the vice
1:14
president of the media authority of Ansa Allah movement that has Houthi's group as one of its organizations said the air
1:22
defenses were able to thwart the majority of the Israeli attacks and confronted several of its combat
1:27
formations which he said forced Israeli soldiers to retreat with the Houthi fighters using locally manufactured air
1:34
defense systems. According to Sri Defense Force, multiple military targets
1:40
belonging to the Houthi terrorist regime in SA Ye Yemen including a military site
1:45
in which the presidency palace is located, the Adar and Hazar's power plants and a site for storing fuel. All
1:52
used for the military activity of the Houthi regime. These strikes were carried out in response to repeated
1:58
Houthi attacks on Israel with missiles and UAVs. The Houthis backed by Iran
2:05
continue to exploit civilian infrastructure for terror purposes. News agencies reported that Israel launched
2:11
the air strikes in Yemen's capital Sarah, hitting areas near the presidential complex and missile bases
2:18
with additional strikes reported in Heda. It was gathered that Israel carried out the strikes in response to
2:24
days of attempted Houthi drone and ballistic missile attack against Israel. Local media reported with a photograph
2:31
showing the Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister
2:37
Katz and IDF Chief Al Zamir at the Israeli Air Force command center in Tel
2:43
Aviv observing today's strikes on Yemen capital on the military facility near the presidential palace, a fuel depot,
2:50
and two power stations. Israeli air strikes hit Yemen's capital on Sunday,
2:56
just days after the Houthi rebels fired a missile toward Israel that its military described as the first cluster
3:02
bomb the rebels had fired at it since 2023. The rebels al- Masira satellite
3:08
television reported a strike on an oil company and video on social media showed a fireball erupting there. Nasra, deputy
3:17
head of answer all Houthi's media authority and chairman of Yemen's Sabba
3:22
news agency said Yemen air defenses intercepted most of the Israeli air raids forcing several formations to
3:29
withdraw. He stressed that Yemen's military operations in support of Gaza will continue until the aggression ends
3:36
and the blockade is lifted. AMA dismissed Israel's targeting of a civilian fuel station in Sana as an act
3:43
of barbarism and bankruptcy with no impact on military capabilities, warning
3:48
it will only trigger further escalation. In quotes, he said, "Targeting a
3:54
civilian fuel station on a main street will have no impact on military operations."
3:59
Thanks to God, the air defenses were able to thwart the majority of the Zionist aggression and confront several
4:06
of its combat formations, forcing them to retreat using locally manufactured
4:11
air defense systems. Our military operations in support of Gaza will not cease, God willing, except with the
4:18
sessation of the aggression and the lifting of the siege on it. Targeting a civilian fuel station on a main street
4:25
will certainly have no impact on the military operations. rather a young man
4:30
from Delta State in the oil rich Niger Delta region in Nigeria has been arrested after he conspired with his
4:36
friend to fake a kidnapping to get money from his family in order to be able to travel abroad. The young man was seen in
4:43
a video the alleged kidnapper sent to his family threatened to be killed with a cutless placed on his neck by the
4:50
suspected fake kidnapper who is also a native and indigene of Delta state but
4:55
faked his voice to sound like an house fani man from northern Nigeria.
5:00
According to one of the popular human rights activists against insecurity in the West Africa country, Harrison
5:07
Guamishu, the two suspects were arrested inside the bush after intelligence gathering indicated that the kidnapping
5:13
was not genuine, adding that they were not mobilized by Senator Ned Munir Enwoko, the senator representing Delta
5:21
North senatorial zone, who had said in a press statement that the father of the supposed victim together with two
5:28
members of the Idamuj Uboko community reached out to me. I also spoke with the
5:33
victim's brothers as well as the police in SLA UKU and Asaba. In addition, I
5:39
contacted and mobilized the Idamuj Uboko vigilante group and held discussions with my police contacts in Asaba, giving
5:47
clear instructions to track the kidnappers and ensure the safe rescue of the victim. Throughout the operation, I
5:54
received tracking updates and was kept informed of the rescue movements from Asaba to Isle Wuku until the eventual
6:01
arrests were made. In an earlier post, Harrison Guamishu had said that for
6:06
clarity, I do not know who he claims he mobilized for a rescue mission. I also
6:11
do not know what he meant by saying he mobilized the police and local vigilantes. I personally fueled three
6:18
vehicles, paid other logistics for the operation. He's claiming he mobilized.
6:23
According to the popular human rights and life defender Harrison Guamu, on
6:28
Sunday the 16th of August 2025, an alarm was raised that a man had been kidnapped
6:34
at Anichbo Anocha North local government area, Delta State. Immediately the
6:40
police special anti-kidnapping and cyber crime unit Asaba led by the OC swung
6:46
into action working tirelessly with a team of military officers from 63
6:51
brigade Asaba the Nigeria forest security service NFSS and Delta State
6:57
Government House Trackers advanced to Isleu to rescue the alleged victim.
7:02
After hours of coordinated intelligence gathering, it was discovered that the incident was not a genuine abduction,
7:09
but a case of self-kidnapping. The location was secured and the two suspects behind the act were arrested
7:16
and are now in custody. We sincerely thank the officers and men of the 63
7:21
Brigade Assaba, the OC and offices of the special anti-kidnapping and cyber crime unit and the NFSS for their
7:28
resilience, sacrifice and dedication to keeping our communities safe. Special
7:34
appreciation also goes to his excellency right honorable sheriff,
7:39
executive governor of Delta State, for standing firmly behind security operations. As we commend these gallant
7:46
men and women, we must also stress the need for greater support. The security
7:51
teams involved in this operation need stronger logistics, equipment, and resources to sustain their work and
7:57
extend their coverage across an amra state governor. Professor Charles Chukum Soludo has dismissed eight members of
8:04
the state special vigilante group known as Agonmber after the sacked security operatives were seen in a now viral
8:11
video allegedly assaulting a female National Youth Service Corps NYC member
8:17
Jennifer Elbor to the level of complete nakedness after they torn her clothes and continued assaulting her even when
8:23
they observed during the process nothing more was covering any part of her body.
8:28
This the dismissed vigilantes did after they allegedly chased some young men on motorcycles they claimed were members of
8:35
a secret cult to the victim's compound at Ober community in Idili south local government area of an amra state on July
8:42
23rd 2025 according to the state television station an amra broadcasting service abs
8:50
the anamra state government through the agon security command has dismissed
8:56
eight of her operatives for their involvement in the brutal assault and public stripping of a core member, Miss
9:01
Jennifer Elbor. The dismissed operatives will be handed over to the police for immediate prosecution.
9:08
Speaking at the agency headquarters in Orca, the special adviser to Governor Chukuma Soludo on community security,
9:15
Mr. Ken Mikai said the state government acted swiftly after receiving reports
9:21
that the operatives while in pursuit of suspected cultists on July 23rd, 2025
9:27
assaulted core members, an action which he described as totally outside the mandate of the agency and utterly
9:34
condemnable. Mr. Amikai stressed that the Soludo administration will not
9:39
tolerate any form of unprofessionalism, brutality or abuse of office by security
9:44
operatives, assuring that any officer found guilty of misconduct will face immediate dismissal and prosecution. He
9:51
disclosed that despite pleas from the victim's family and NYC officials not to prolong prosecution for damaging the
9:58
identity of the people involved, the Anra state government insisted on full investigation and accountability to
10:05
serve as deterrence. The special adviser further revealed that the agency has already settled all medical bills of the
10:12
core member, replaced damaged valuables such as laptops and phones, and tended a
10:17
public apology to the victim, her family. NYSC and the general public. Mr.
10:23
Amikai reiterated the government's resolve to reform community security operations in the state, emphasizing
10:30
that Governor Solido's administration is committed to upholding professionalism, accountability, and respect for human
10:37
rights in all security engagements. He assured that the incident will be used as a turning point to strengthen
10:44
discipline and restore public trust in the Agon outfit. Meanwhile, the Anamra
10:50
State Police Command has condemned in strong terms the alleged assault on a female member of the National Youth
10:56
Service Corps NYC in Obera Idily South Local Government Area of the state. The
11:03
assault was reportedly carried out by vigilante operatives. Following the incident, the suspects involved have
11:10
been identified. The command however notes that the alleged victim's unavailability has temporarily stalled
11:17
the ongoing investigative process. Meanwhile, the command has reiterated that assault in any form remains a
11:24
criminal offense under the Nigerian law and reserves the right to take necessary legal action to comfort eman. The 26
11:32
years old female passenger that was recently seen on viral video allegedly attacked and provoked to action has said
11:38
that she sustained injuries in her private part when a yet to be identified Ibomb Air staff pulled off her shirt and
11:45
exposed her nakedness at Lagos airport. This according to comfort, the shirt
11:50
torn while she was being carried out from the aircraft was her inner wear that was pinned together below her
11:56
private part saying the Ibomb Air hostess had allegedly broke her phone
12:01
necklace and forcefully removed her wig hair from her head which caused her a severe sharp pain and as a result of the
12:08
pain she hit the air hostess on the cheek, adding she became more aggressive
12:13
when she saw the airport staff video recording her nakedness while she was battling to cover her body as a result
12:19
of her shirt that was torn with her chest sexual organs completely exposed.
12:24
Comfort eman gave her own side of the story in an 11-minute video she posted on her Instagram profile on Sunday,
12:31
August 17th, 2025, which was exactly after one week the incident occurred.
12:38
She said she was the one who begged the co-passenger to help switch off her phone when the plane was about to take
12:43
off at UYO airport. Contrary to the narratives painted by Ibomb Air Management that she refused to switch
12:49
off her phone and a co-passenger on board the plane forcefully took the phone from her and switched it off and
12:55
thereafter Comfort Eman engaged the co-passenger and other staff of the airline in a long war of words the air
13:03
management referred to as tirade. Details of her statement as transcribed and presented by channels television
13:10
reads verbatim below. Comfort eman passenger embroiled in a controversial
13:16
Ibomb air incident has given a detailed account of the events on board the flight that led to her arrest,
13:21
arraignment, and eventual discharge by a Lagos court. In a video shared on her
13:27
Instagram page on Sunday, Emanson expressed gratitude to supporters who stood by her during what she described
13:33
as a traumatic ordeal. Narrating her version of events, the real estate
13:39
consultant recalled that on August 10th, 2025, she boarded a flight from Huyo to
13:44
Lagos. She alleged that a disagreement began when a flight attendant identified
13:50
as Juliana insisted she switched off her phone rather than place it in flight mode. According to her, one of her two
13:57
phones had a faulty power button. I showed her the phone and told her the power button was bad. She said I could
14:05
still switch it off through the settings. With the help of a fellow passenger, I eventually managed to
14:11
switch off both phones, she explained. When we landed in Lagos, everybody was
14:17
getting out of the aircraft. I went to pee. Coming outside, everybody had
14:22
already left. I had to rush, carry my stuff, and move to rush out of the aircraft. going out of the aircraft.
14:30
This lady Juliana stopped me and I asked her, "Why did you stop me? Why are you
14:36
stopping me from going out of the aircraft? Everybody has left, so I need to go out. She didn't say anything to
14:44
me." She stared at me with a bad eye. I picked up my phone and started recording. That was when she pushed me
14:51
back inside the aircraft, dragged my wig frontal, tore my clothes, and broke my
14:56
necklace. The pain was unbearable. Leaders of the Nigeria affiliates of Alqaaida International terrorist group
15:04
known as Anseru and Mahmuda have been captured by men of the armed forces of Nigeria AFN after 2 months of
15:11
intelligenceled special operations in Northern Nigeria. The West African Nation National Security Adviser, Nouhu
15:18
Rabadu, stated this at a press conference with the nation's security chiefs, saying, "The two arrested
15:24
suspected terrorists leaders have cells across the country where they have been executing various crimes of armed
15:30
robbery in addition to raise funds for the terrorist activities. Details of the
15:35
public announcement as stated by Nuru Rabadu and made available by the office of the spokesperson to the Nigeria
15:42
president Beo Onuga on Saturday reads verbatim below. Nigeria dismantles
15:48
terror groups Anseru and Mahmuda with the capture of their leaders. Nigeria
15:54
has recorded a significant breakthrough in the war against terrorism with the capture of the leaders of Anseru and
15:59
Marmuda. At a press briefing on Saturday evening, the national security adviser
16:05
Malam Nuru Rabadu said the two terrorists on the wanted list of Nigeria, the US, UK and UN were captured
16:13
in an operation which was conducted between May and July 2025.
16:18
He said the men were captured in a high-risk intelligence-led counterterrorism operation which led to
16:24
their capture. They are leaders of Jamaatu Ansurel Muslima Fi Badis Sudan
16:30
commonly known as Ansu Nigeria's Alqaaida affiliate. Rabardu said the two
16:36
men have been responsible for masterminding many terrorist attacks against Nigeria over the past years.
16:42
According to Rabadu, the first is Mimmud Muhammad Usman aka Abu Barah Abbis
16:49
Maktar, the self-styled Demir of Ansu. He is the coordinator of various
16:54
terrorist sleeper cells across Nigeria. He is also the mastermind of several
16:59
high-profile kidnappings and armed robberies used to finance terrorism over the years. The second is Mimmud al-
17:06
Nigeri aka Malam Mammuda Abuara's proclaimed chief of staff and deputy. He
17:13
is the leader of the so-called Mammuda cell hiding out in and around the Kangji
17:18
National Park straddling Niger and Quirre states up to Benin Republic. Mammuda trained in Libya between 2013
17:26
and 2015 under foreign jihadist instructors from Egypt, Tunisia and
17:31
Algeria specializing in weapons handling and IED fabrication.
17:36
These two men have been on Nigeria's most wanted list for years. They jointly
17:41
spearheaded multiple attacks on civilians, security forces, and critical infrastructure.
17:48
Their operations include the 2022 Kuja prison break, the attack on the Niger
17:53
uranium facility, the 2013 abduction of French engineer Francis Colump in
17:58
Katsina and the May 1st 2019 kidnapping of Al-Haji Musa Umar Uuba Magajin
18:04
Garandara. They were also behind the abduction of the Amir of Wawwa and they
18:09
maintained active links with terrorist groups across the Makrebrev particularly in Mali Niger and Bikina Faso. The two
18:17
men who are wanted internationally are currently in custody. The capture of
18:22
Abuara and Malam Mammuda, the group's leader and deputy commander respectively, marks one of the most
18:29
following the meeting of President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Donald Trump of the United States on
18:35
Friday in Alaska. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zalinski has said he knows the
18:40
treachery of President Putin, that in the coming days, Russia soldiers may try
18:46
to increase pressure and strikes against Ukrainian positions in order to create more favorable political circumstances
18:53
for talks with global actors. Zalinski made this statement some hours ago while
18:58
stating that Ukrainian soldiers have achieved some successes in Donesk region, especially in the areas of
19:04
Doilia and Pocross. then ordered the commanderin-chief Alexander Cerski to
19:10
speak with combat commanders that Ukraine needs strong positions and truly tangible resistance to the enemy. In his
19:17
words, Zalinski said, "I received a report from commander in chief Alexander
19:22
Cerski. The front, the defense of positions and up-to-date information on
19:27
the intentions and movements of the Russian army. We are defending our positions along the entire front line.
19:34
And for the second day in a row, we have achieved successes in some extremely difficult areas in the Donesk region in
19:41
the direction of Doilia and Pocross. In particular, I want to commend the units
19:47
of the first corps of the national guard of Ukraine as of the units of the seventh core of the air assault forces,
19:54
the units of the 38th separate marine brigade named after headman Petro Sahedni as well as the units of our 93rd
20:02
separate mechanized brigade ya. The destruction of the occupiers who tried
20:07
to infiltrate deeper into our positions continues. There has also been an important replenishment of Ukraine's
20:15
exchange fund with Russian soldiers. The commanderin-chief also reported on the
20:20
actions of our units in the Sunumi, Kharkiv, and Seaporisia regions. I am
20:26
grateful to all our warriors for their resilience. Based on the political and diplomatic situation around Ukraine and
20:33
knowing Russia's treachery, we anticipate that in the coming days, the Russian army may try to increase
20:39
pressure and strikes against Ukrainian positions in order to create more favorable political circumstances for
20:45
talks with global actors. We are documenting the movement and preparations of Russian troops. Of
20:51
course, we will counteract if necessary asymmetrically. I asked the commanderin-chief to speak with combat
20:59
commanders. Ukraine needs strong positions and truly tangible resistance to the enemy. I thank every one of our
21:06
soldiers, sergeants, and officers who are carrying out combat missions and destroying the occupiers in the way that
21:12
is necessary for Ukraine's confidence. Glory to Ukraine. We had a long and
21:18
substantive conversation with POTUS, president of the United States. We
21:23
started with one- on-one talks before inviting European leaders to join us.
21:28
This call lasted for more than an hour and a half, including about an hour of our bilateral conversation with
21:34
President Trump. Ukraine reaffirms its readiness to work with maximum effort to
21:40
achieve peace. President Trump informed about his meeting with the Russian leader and the main points of the
21:46
discussion. It is important that America's strength has an impact on the development of the situation. We support
21:53
President Trump's proposal for a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the USA, and Russia. There is still no peace
22:00
in sight after nearly 3 hours of meeting held in Anchorage City in Alaska, a state in the United States, US between
22:08
President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Donald Trump of the United States over the war Russia launched
22:15
since 2022 in Ukraine which has led to thousands of deaths mostly Ukrainians
22:20
which President Vladimir Zalinski of Ukraine who was not invited for the meeting on Friday in a statement said
22:27
that it was time to end the war, but Russia must take the necessary steps to a genuine peace deal. And while
22:33
commenting on the statement made by the president of Poland, Carol Navoki on Friday via exocial media platform to
22:41
mark Poland armed forces day which coincided with the day Putin and Trump met in Alaska. President Zalinski said
22:48
that Ukraine's independence strengthens Poland's independence and we must always remember that the miracle on the Vistula
22:55
was made possible through joint efforts and it saved Europe and the Polish president Carol Navoki had said that
23:02
today we celebrate the 105th anniversary of the great Polish victory at the battle of Warsaw in 1920. The Polish
23:10
army together with Ukrainian forces successfully repelled the Red Army's westward march, safeguarding Europe from
23:17
a communist revolution. For centuries, Russian imperialism has been a mortal threat to our freedom. Poland's
23:24
political tradition teaches that Russian expansionism rests on a legacy of domestic desperatism in which the only
23:31
free man is the ruler himself. But precisely because Russian desperatism is the enemy of freedom, Russian
23:37
imperialism can only be defeated through an alliance of free peoples. My nation
23:42
halted Russian imperialism at Oshia 1514, Clashido 1,610
23:49
and Warsaw 1920. It was probably a sinister of world attention when Air Force One and Russia
23:56
presidential aircraft officially wheeled down a joint base Elondorf as President Donald Trump and President Vladimir
24:03
Putin met face to face for the first time since the war in Ukraine started on February 24th, 2022. And the Friday
24:11
meeting marked the first time President Vladimir Putin of Russia was stepping on Western country soil since he launched
24:18
the war against Ukraine. He was able to meet Trump in Alaska because the US is
24:23
not a member country of the International Criminal Court IC that issued a warrant of arrest against the
24:29
Kremlin leader since 2023 over alleged war crime in Ukraine. It would be
24:35
recalled that the Russian president Vladimir Putin did not attend the 2025
24:40
annual Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa summit known as bricks
24:46
summit in Brazil due to concerns over an international criminal court warrant for his arrest in connection with alleged
24:52
war crimes committed in Ukraine. According to the Kremlin aid Yuri Ashikov, President Vladimir Putin did
24:59
not attend the summit due to certain difficulties in the context of the ICC requirement. Adding in that context, the
25:08
Brazilian government could not take a clear position that would allow our president to participate in this
25:13
meeting. Instead, the Russian leader joined his BRICS colleagues via video link. Putin was declared a war crimes
25:20
suspect since the ICC named him in a March 2023 arrest warrant over the mass
25:26
deportation of Ukrainian children. Co-contestants in the last concluded

25:45
pressing issues of insecurity and other deplorable situations that make the nation bleeds. Specifically, Peter Obi
25:52
said, "The situation we find ourselves in is deeply worrisome. Our president, who has not found it worthy to visit any
26:00
of our troubled states, takes joy in traveling to foreign countries at the slightest invitation or excuse, often
26:06
departing several days, even before the events he's invited to. The presidency
26:12
had in a statement on Wednesday said that President Bolanu will depart Abuja
26:17
on Thursday, August 14th for a two-nation trip to Japan and Brazil. The
26:22
president will stop over in Dubai, United Arab Emirates before proceeding to Japan. In Japan, President Tonubu

26:37
in the city of Yokohama from August 20th to 22 with the theme co-create
26:42
innovative solutions with Africa. TICAD9 will focus on Africa's economic
26:48
transformation and improvements in the business environment and institutions through private investment and
26:53
innovation. It will also promote a resilient and sustainable African society for human security, peace, and
27:01
stability. In addition to attending plenary sessions on themes linked to the conference, the Nigerian president will
27:08
hold bilateral meetings and meet the chief executive offices of some Japanese companies with investments in Nigeria.
27:16
Initiated in 1993 by the Japanese government and co-hosted by the United
27:21
Nations, UNDP, the African Union Commission and the World Bank, TICAD is
27:27
a trienal conference held alternately in Japan and Africa. The last one took
27:33
place in August 2022 in Tunisia. The forum fosters high level policy dialogue
27:39
between African leaders and development partners. At the end of the TICAD9,
27:45
President Tonubu will leave for Brazilia, the capital of the Federated Republic of Brazil on a two-day state
27:52
visit from Sunday, August 24th to Monday, August 25th. This follows an
27:58
invitation by the Brazilian president Luis Anatio Luna Dar Silva. While in
28:03
Brazil, President Tonubu will hold a bilateral meeting with his host and attend a business forum with Brazilian
28:10
investors. His delegation comprising key ministers and senior officials will
28:16
explore opportunities to strengthen cooperation and sign agreements and memorand of understanding mouse with the
28:22
Brazilian government. Beo Onuga, special adviser to the president on information and strategy stated on August 13th,
28:30
2025. Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate in the last concluded general
28:36
elections in the West Africa country in a statement on Thursday said, "Again,
28:41
our president moves as the nation bleeds. Amid the deplorable state of our nation in all ramifications, we have a
28:49
virtually indifferent president who has continued to display insensitivity to our situation. How can anyone explain
28:56
that a president who came from Brazil recently and met federal government of Nigeria under the leadership of
29:02
President Bola Ahmed Tonubu has ordered the commissioner of police in charge of Lagos airport to withdraw the one-sided
29:09
and obviously biased court case. The Nigeria Police Force may have wrongly instituted against an Ibomb Air
29:15
passenger. Comfort eman who was seen in viral videos retaliating and defending
29:20
herself physically after a group of Ibomb Air personnel and Lagos airport team had attacked her and provoked her
29:27
to action. The FG position on the issue was made known by the Nigeria Minister
29:32
of Aviation Fesus Cayamo in a press release the minister signed and made available few minutes ago. Although
29:39
Fesus Cayamo reversed himself and acknowledged that the issue was a case of confrontation between the 26 years
29:46
old passenger and the staff of Ibomb Airlines who in the new press release admitted that the staff of Ibomb Air and
29:53
the Lagos airport authority team acted wrongly. But the minister did not state
29:58
how the attacked passenger would be compensated most especially when her chest sexual organs were seems to be
30:05
deliberately exposed after a suspected Ibomb Airlines staff pulled off and tore the passenger shirt with obvious
30:11
intention to expose the passengers's nakedness. The action of the federal government may ease the tension among
30:18
millions of people who have accused the Nigeria police force of aiding and abetting the Ibomb airline company to
30:24
continue to attack and oppress the offended passenger. Comfort Bob who is also identified as comfort eman by thus
30:32
supporting the statement of Ibomb air management who in their first press release made statement that seems to
30:39
have some level of deliberate falsehood and raising up a dead issue to win undue public sentiments manipulate the Nigeria
30:46
police force to help them secure detention holding charge from the Lagos state magistrate court to further
30:52
oppress and intimidate the attacked passenger specifically Ibamare stated in her first press release that shortly
30:59
after the plane landed at Lagos airport, the passenger waited for every other passenger on board the plane to
31:05
disembark and thereafter without provocation went to one of the plane hostesses Juliana Edward the Ibomb air
31:13
management described as Perser stepped on her forcibly tore off her wig removed
31:18
her glasses and threw it to the floor and used her footwear to assault her. She slapped her several times and when
31:25
the other cabin crew member tried to intervene, she slapped her too. She then attempted to forcibly remove a fire
31:32
extinguisher to use as a weapon, an act that could have damaged and grounded the aircraft. Soon after the Ibomb Air
31:38
Management released the statement on Monday, a video surfaced on the internet that probably invalidated the statement
31:45
of the Ibomb Air Management and stood out as an acceptable evidence that the management of Ibomb Air are people who
31:51
may be rightly described as pathological liars who probably believed in telling lies as a way of managing crisis and
31:58
handling difficult customers relations. As seen in the viral video that surfaced the internet after the apparent
32:05
falsehood of Ibomb Air Management, the attacked passenger was seen politely telling the air hostess Juliana Edward
32:12
to leave the doorway so that she can disembark from the plane. The senior aggressor in this matter. The air
32:18
hostess Juliana Edward refused to yield to the appeal of the passenger and Ibomb Air Management in their first press
32:24
release confirmed that the air hostess Juliana Edward deliberately blocked the door. Nigeria Aviation Minister Fesus
32:32
Cayamo says the ministry has directed for the aviation staff who released the video footage containing the aspect of
32:39
an Ibomb Airlines passenger comfort eman or Bob seen in an indecent appearance
32:44
with her chest sexual organs exposed after the passenger shirt was torn by an Ibomb Airlines staff while security
32:52
operatives were seen in the viral video dragging the agrieved passenger out of the aircraft following an act of
32:58
confrontation. ation between the passenger and Ibomb Airlines hostesses which one of the hostesses blocked the
33:04
right of way of the passenger and prevented the passenger from disembarking from the plane and after
33:10
countless warning to the airline passenger to leave the road. The passenger went physical with the hostess
33:15
by allegedly slapping her on the face, which the confrontation with the hostess apparently led to the alleged
33:21
destruction of the plane divider cotton, which Hbomb Airlines valued at $2,500
33:27
as stated in count five of the fivecount charges the police filed against the passenger at a Kedar magistrate court in
33:33
Lagos State. The aviation minister Fesus Cayamo who described the behavior of the
33:39
passenger as unruly said although the airline staff is right to video record
33:45
the event of the passenger's behavior for the purpose of legal action but it is totally unacceptable for the staff to
33:51
release part of the video that exposed the passenger's nakedness especially her breasts. Details of the minister
33:58
statement reads verbatim below, "Enough is enough. Reading the riot act on
34:03
aviation safety and security in reference to the case of unruly comfort bob on Ibom airline and related
34:09
incidents." Earlier today, we again woke up to viral videos of a female passenger
34:15
on Ibom airline, now identified as Comfort Eman or Comfort Bob, who went
34:20
berserk and physically assaulted both the flight crew and the ground staff. The incident took place yesterday,
34:27
August 10th, 2025 on Ibomb Airline flight number Q 153 from Ouyo to Lagos
34:34
at about 1454 hours. Ibomb Airline has since issued a statement to provide some
34:40
context to the effect that the whole unfortunate incident arose because of the refusal of the passenger to switch
34:46
off her phone during takeoff as required by extant international civil aviation regulations.
34:52
Consequently, in the last few hours, I have been speaking with the commissioner of police of the airport police command,
34:59
the DG of the NCAA and his team, the MD of FA and her team, the COO of Ibomb Air
35:06
and his team about the incident. Apart from the indefinite flight ban imposed on the said unruly passenger both local
35:13
and international by the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority NCAA the police has
35:20
promptly arraigned her this morning at the Aeda magistrate's court for criminal offenses and remanded her at Kirki
35:26
prisons as she could not provide adequate shities in court. I have attached the charge sheet and remand
35:33
order for clarity. We also note the scuffle that took place between the unruly passenger and ground personnel
35:39
before she was eventually subdued. This was because of her uncooperative attitude. Whilst we support the filming
35:46
of her recalcitrant behavior as evidence to prosecute her, what is deplorable is to release such evidence containing
35:53
indecent exposure to the public to ridicule her. That is totally unacceptable to us. A careful study of
36:00
the viral video involving the Ibomb airline personnel, Lagos airport security operatives and an agrieved
36:06
passenger, Comfort Eman on board the airline plane on Sunday, indicated that while the enraged passenger was being
36:14
dragged off the plane by three men who held her two hands and legs, suspending
36:19
her a little bit on the air, a lady putting on a bomb corporate clothes who was behind the camera lens could be seen
36:26
in the video to have approached the passenger at the door point of the plane. While the passenger was about to
36:32
be taken out, apparently dipped her hand towards the waist part of the passenger, untucked the passenger shirt from the
36:38
trousers, grabbed and pulled the passenger's shirt towards her head, and in the process, the passenger shirt got
36:45
tore and the passenger's chest sexual organs or private parts were completely exposed. The action of the Ibomb airline
36:52
staff appeared to be deliberate as the airline female staff was not part of those dragging the passenger off the
36:58
aircraft. And after the female passenger's body was exposed, the Ibomb Airlines female staff never joined or
37:05
assisted the security operatives to drag the passenger off the plane. This indicated that the motive of the female
37:11
staff of Ibomb Aine was solely to remove the passenger shirt and expose the agrieved airline passenger to ridicule.
37:19
The video of the passenger's partial nakedness, especially her two breasts, completely exposed due to the apparent
37:25
action of a yet to be arrested and prosecuted female staff of Ibomb Airlines has since gone viral with some
37:32
pornographic channels already updating their channels with the partial nakedness of the Ibomb Airlines
37:37
passenger. According to Punch newspaper, Comfort Eman, the passenger accused of
37:43
assaulting airline officials aboard an Ibomb Air flight from Uuyo to Lagos has been charged in court and remanded in
37:49
Kirki Correctional Center in Lagos. Tundday Mashie, special adviser on media
37:55
and communications to the minister of aviation and aerospace development, Fesus Cayamo San confirmed the
38:03
development in a post on his official X handle on Monday. The more reason the flying public should be more careful.
38:10
The unruly passenger on the Yuyo Lagosbound Ibomb Air Miss Comfort Eman
38:15
has been charged to court and she's now cooling off in Kirk Kiri. Mashie wrote, "Ibomb Air in a press statement on
38:22
Monday said that Ibam Air confirms that on Sunday, August 10th, 2025, an
38:29
incident occurred on board our UYO Lagos flight involving a passenger, Comfort Eman, whose conduct posed a serious
38:36
threat to the safety of our crew, passengers, and aircraft. Shortly before
38:42
takeoff from Ouyo, Emanson was instructed in line with standard aviation safety procedures to switch off
38:48
her mobile phone. She bluntly refused to comply until the pilot in command made
38:54
an announcement after which a fellow passenger seated beside her took the phone and switched it off. This action
39:01
prompted a verbal tirade from Eman. The situation was eventually calmed and the
39:06
flight departed as scheduled. Upon arrival in Lagos, Emanson waited for all
39:12
other passengers to disembark and then proceeded to confront the person who had earlier instructed her. She walked up to
39:19
the unsuspecting person, stepped on her, forcibly tore off her wig, removed her
39:24
glasses and threw it to the floor and used her footwear to assault her. Management of National Youth Service
39:31
Corps under the leadership of Brigadier General Olukunlay Nafu has given reasons why a serving Nigeria Youth Corps member
39:38
Ashier Rita Auimay was denied NYC discharge certificate that could have
39:44
enabled her exit the one-year mandatory program after she completed the one-year paramilitary service to her nation as a
39:51
new graduate. And according to a statement posted and made available by NYSC on Sunday with no name of the
39:59
authority responsible for the press statement written or mentioned in the statement, the NYSC said core member
40:06
Rita Aui's discharge certificate was withheld and her service year extended by 2 months following her alleged
40:13
absence or failure to attend the April 2025 NYSC biometrics clearance at Etiosa
40:20
local government area secretariat and the month stated by NYC was barely few
40:26
days after the core member had cried out loud in the month of March 2025 over the
40:32
apparent increasing high rates of hunger as a result of rising costs of living in
40:37
Nigeria and as such she described the president Bola Ahmed Tonubu as a
40:42
terrible president in a swift reaction to the reason given by NYSC Rita
40:48
Iguaya's lawyer barristister Anibbeay FY while answering questions from channels
40:53
television program presenters on Monday morning said the statement issued by the
40:58
management of the national youth service corps NYC on its decision to extend the
41:03
service period and withhold the certificate of national service of core member Ashier Rita Auimay alias Ray does
41:11
not represent the truth of the matter saying on April 7th 2025 Rita was
41:17
physically present at the local government secretariat for the headcount and clearance. But the NYSC official at
41:23
the local government level deliberately refused to attend to her even after 6 hours waiting during which she was asked
41:30
to go back and queued up on the line repeatedly. The NYSC official still refused to attend to her and thereafter
41:38
on April 11th, 2025, the core member went to meet the NYSC official and
41:43
begged her to allow her perform her April 2025 biometrics clearance. The
41:49
NYSC female official refused and asked the core member to leave. This Amnesty
41:55
International said the National Youth Service Corp. NYSC must rescend its
42:00
decision. The Amnesty International described as arbitrary and outrageous, saying NYC allegedly used bureaucratic
42:08
tricks to extend the core member national service year over the government's unacceptable intolerance of
42:14
dissenting voices with former Nigeria Vice President Atiku Abuakar describing
42:19
the NYSC action as impunity and as such cautioned the government against
42:24
subjecting everything to politics. And on Monday morning, the former governor of an amber state, Peter Obi, issued a
42:31
statement and said, "In our country today, hunger and poverty are not just distant statistics. They are the harsh
42:38
reality that millions of our people face daily." Recently, the United Nations stated that about 34 million Nigerians
42:46
will face acute food insecurity and about 63% of our population, which is
42:51
about 133 million people, now live in multi-dimensional poverty, inflation,
42:57
even with the suppressed statistics. Mute the needs in a mortgage
