Police
Command on Friday arrested
a man alleged to be
circulating `killer’ text
messages to the public.
The Police Public Relations
Officer, Mr Kayode Fabode,
told the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) in Ilorin that
the man (names withheld)
was being interrogated.
Fabode urged members of
the public to ignore the
messages, saying there was
no iota of truth in them.
The police spokesman said
that the man had been
sending text messages
claiming that four people
who answered calls from a
certain GSM number had died
in Ilorin and Omu-Aran.
The number according to the
police belongs to a girl who
was preaching to the
suspect to accept Christ.
The police spokesman said
that the claims in the text
messages were untrue, and
advised members of the
public to ignore them and go
about their normal
businesses.
Fabode said that no death
connected with the use of
GSM calls had been reported
in Ilorin or Omu-Aran by
anyone.
“It is not true that people
have died because they
received or picked their calls
on phone, particularly in
Kwara,’’ he said.
He said that police
investigations led to the
arrest of the suspected
originator of the text
messages, who is a student
of a tertiary institution in the
state.
According to him, the
reported claims of death in
Egbe, Ilorin and Omu-Aran
are not true.
The text messages had
created anxiety among the
people in Omu-Aran and
ilorin

There is a commitment by the current leadership of Nigeria to make things work.

It is just that Nigeria was designed to fail, else I would have said that we are rising from the ashes as left by our past "great leaders" especially those of the military.
