Crime / Re: The Ordeal Of Solomon Bawa In The Hands Of The Nigeria Police Force, Nasarawa by tobolos(m): 8:53am On Nov 19, 2023
I was filled with bitterness when I watched the video...his case can't just slide like others

This is a video story shared by Brekete Family. It is about the ordeal of a Nigerian citizen in the hands of the Nigerian Police Force.

Solomon Bawa hails from Ajaga Family in Karo LGA of Nasarawa State.

In 2019, he was on his way to repair the tyre of his pickup when he was accosted by the Police who asked him if he knew any Bawa Gambo. He replied in the negative but they asked him to enter their vehicle to follow them to the station at Masaka.

On reaching there, they asked about his identity again and he told them his name, Solomon Bawa. After pressuring him to identify as Bawa Gambo and not getting a result, they took away his belt and shoes, then locked him up in a cell until daybreak.

He kept asking why he was locked up and got no response. Instead he got beaten and later transferred to State CID, Lafia. Here, he was beaten repeatedly and forced to identify as Bawa Gambo or tell them the whereabouts.

An Igbo trader who saw him, travelled to Solomon's home on his behalf, to inform his family of what is going on. His mother came to attest that his name is Solomon but was given no attention. Instead, he got beaten by one Inspector Usman Amgbashi to the extent that he got his forehead injured and lost his entire right arm to shrinking and paralysis.

Another Policeman, Inspector Ado Bature, advised him to accept the identity of Bawa Gambo or face more beating, especially as it was getting too much and may lead to his death and nothing will happen. Solomon had to accept, in the hopes that when he gets to court, he can explain himself. But this was not to be as he spent some months there. The only visitor he frequently had, his mother, died about 2 months after he had been held at the State CID.

After then, no one visited anymore and Solomon could not help crying everyday, at his loss. He was then transferred to Lafia Prison without being charged to court. He spent about 3 years in prison until he met with the Comptroller and explained his situation and ill-health. He was then transferred to Keffi Prison, where he spent another year but was getting some form of treatment on the now deformed hand.

Respite came in the form of a human rights lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha, who listened to his story when she came to the Prison. She took it upon herself to verify his identity by going to his hometown and retrieving his certificates, then pursued the matter until he was due to appear in court. It turns out that the said 'Bawa Gambo' had already appeared and bailed himself at the State CID while Solomon remained imprisoned.

After the first court session, the police never showed up again, despite Musa making multiple appearance with his lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha. He was then asked to provide two surety so he can be bailed, which he did. He went to retrieve his phone from State CID. He saw Inspector Usman Amgbashi, approached him and greeted him. He proceeded to tell him that he came for his phone but was warned never to step his foot there again or get beaten.

On October 4, after another no-show at the courts by the Police, he was advised by the same Igbo trader to go to Brekete Family to tell his story and possibly, get justice.

Today, the matter is being handled by the IGP himself, who called for a thorough investigation.

It's a bag of mixed fortunes ahead for Solomon, who now has to get justice with a deformed right hand, a permanent scar on his head, a late mother and four years of his life gone 'for nothing'

Health / Re: New Drug Prices In Nigeria by tobolos(m): 10:18am On Nov 18, 2023
I bought a single dose of deworming drug 4 euros 2 days ago.




IamAtikulate:
1. Seretide, N5000 to N70,000
2. Ampiclox, from N1000 to N13,000
3. Ventolin inhaler, N2800 to N8000
4. Augmentin 625mg, N4500 to N25,000

All are GlaxoSmithKline GSK Products.

Sanofi (the makers of Tavanic 500mg & influenza vaccines ) are also planning to leave Nigeria. WHO IS NEXT IN LINE?

Nigeria moved from one relic to another. Bad misfortune; from frying pan to fire.

Nigerians are yet to fully appreciate the implications of GlaxoSmithKline GSK exiting Nigeria. When I say this, I don’t mean no Agbado (they can’t afford it). I speak of those hardworking Nigerians whose incomes & livelihoods have diminished.

Politics / Re: Over N1 Trillion Saved Since Subsidy Removal, Says Tinubu by tobolos(m): 9:43am On Aug 01, 2023
Money saved in his speech does not mean FG have the money somewhere. It is just one of those debts that was being incurred by NNPC.

All these palliatives and measures to cushion the effects of subsidy removal ought to have started prior to the removal but FG no dey get sense.

Annoying part is that our local farmers are too greedy.They take advantage of the border closure to wreak havoc on the masses. Their prices were even higher than foreign products.

A very welcome development.

Let us all be guided with our utterances. God is the owner of our body and soul. This man people are mocking now could live beyond the so called healthy and agile ones here... Good health and longevity is not determined by your vibrant age or strength.
Mr President could be celebrating 100 years while his haters are being remembered 20 years after death.
Study shows that those below 50 years dies earlier than those beyond.Our prayer is that no young live shall be cut short.

I told a friend yesterday that Lagos Agbero still dey learn work compared to the ones in the East. I can't forget the day my girlfriend (now wife) was forcefully put in a vehicle at Onitsha. I was just helpless that day. So many ugly experiences I can't forget in a lifetime.

Those condemning Lagos Agbero are myopic in their sense of judgement probably they don't go beyond their zones.

I suggest this thread should be closed immediately. All we need now than ever is unity. We should remain resolute and unbreakable for better days ahead. Nothing can kill this generation again. We have seen it all.
