So this man finally turned a snitch, ratting on his former associate.
Well he is lucky this is Nigeria. If it was Sicily, by now he would have been under the sea feeding them fishes.

Thank God. At least this is God's own way of saving several lives that would have been lost had PDP thugs clashed with APC thugs during the election

Nigeria will remain the same as long as these hard core politicians keep on ruling us.
The only way this country will see positive changes is when technocrats like Moghalu and his likes takes the mantle of leadership. They would not want to compromise and dent their hard earned reputation which took them years to build. As for these old politicians, they have absolutely nothing to loose. They will tell you good afternoon in the morning and if you are not careful, convince you that red is black.
Unfortunately, young people like Moghalu and others like him may not be able to win elections in Nigeria no matter how good they are.
Nigerians would rather vote an incompetent fool so long as he shares the same tribe and religion with them.
Also, the enlightened ones amongst us do our own voting on social media while those we regard as Alimajiris and touts all have their PVCs and are ever ready to vote under the rain and sun as long as their palms are greased.

The body of Pablo Escobar after being killed in a rooftop shootout.

There are some troubling signs. When Gonzalo Rojas, whose father died on Avianca flight 203, was not so forgiving, John Jairo Velasquez turned on him. He said he paid for what he did and even said he had helped in the case, calling Rojas a “bad man with an evil heart.”

Velasquez seems to demand forgiveness from victims, and the relatives of people he has killed. But if something similar happened to his family it is a different matter.

“If anyone, out of revenge, kills my son, I won’t forgive the murderer. I’ll find him and kill him.”

In fact, John Jairo Velasquez is yet to leave his previous life behind. Currently, he is busy cashing in on his past as Escobar’s top hitman. But if public interest and support wane will he revert completely back to his old life? It’s certainly a possibility.

Velasquez got wise and by the time he arrived at his third prison in Combita, 100 miles north of Bogota, he had learned how to make the right friends to stay alive.

In prison, Velasquez heard that Escobar had been shot dead.

“I was frozen. My soul cried…[but ] I didn’t cry,” he recalled. “The war hardens you, and so does prison life. So you don’t really cry…For me it’s just been war and prison.”

Since being released in 2014, Velasquez has been open about his time as Escobar’s top hitman. He has met with some victims and apologized for the impact he had on their lives. But is he really sincere? Is he really a reformed man?

Life In Prison And Life After Escobar
From the beginning, Escobar had control. The prison, called La Catedral, was built to his specifications by his engineers. From inside it was business as usual. He carried on trafficking but, then, after he had men killed within La Catedral, the Colombian government decided it was time he was incarcerated inside a real prison.

But what the authorities did not realize is that Escobar had the breaker switch to turn off the 10,000-volt perimeter fence hidden in the wall of his cell.

After only thirteen months in La Catedral, Escobar and some of his men escaped. Valesquez recalls how they left after 11 p.m., walking past the Army on the hills below.

“…[W]e were listening at the Army’s radio transmissions…And we walked right by them. We had our own rifles. And they didn’t hear us. And the guard-tower spotlights were moving back and forth. But we got away.”

In October of 1992, after just two months on the run, John Jairo Velasquez handed himself into police. He never saw Escobar again. And while it was assumed Velasquez would be safer in prison than on the run with Escobar, there were a few close calls for Velasquez.

“They tried to kill me seven times with poison, bullets and knives, poisoned knives. In jail, they have special tricks, smuggling pipes in their rectums, plastic pipes, with daggers in them. Before stabbing someone they’d wipe the knife in feces. And then they stab! The victims die of terrible infection.”

The Bombing Of Avianca 203
Cesar Gaviria became Galan’s successor and immediately became a target of Escobar’s hitmen. On November 27, 1989, a bomb was planted onto Avianca flight 203, which Gaviria was meant to be on. But he wasn’t, and 107 passengers died when the plane exploded in mid-air.

Some believe John Jairo Velasquez organized the attack but he denies it. Instead, he blames Carlos Mario Urquijo, another of Escobar’s ruthless hitmen, and the DAS (the now-defunct Colombian Secret Police).

Velasquez followed Escobar’s orders without question, even killing Escobar’s ex-girlfriend Wendy Chavarriaga Gil for becoming an informant. At the time, she was also Velasquez’s girlfriend, whom he calls the “love of my life.”

“…[O]ne day the boss calls me in and plays a tape for me. It was senorita Wendy, chatting with a police captain.”

Velasquez could not bring himself to kill her personally, so he arranged to meet her at a restaurant and sent in his crew. He recalls phoning the restaurant to talk to his girlfriend and ordering his men to shoot her as soon as she answered, which they did. When he heard the two shots he felt a “rush of love and anger” inside him.

No one was off-limits. However, John Jairo Velasquez said there was one exception. Escobar never condoned killing someone in front of their child. Despite this, Escobar saw the death of children from car bombs as collateral damage.

Police bore the brunt of the Medellin cartel’s brutality. Escobar ordered his hitmen to kill police indiscriminately. According to Velasquez, they killed 540 police and wounded 800 more. “No other criminal organization in the world has ever confronted the police that way,” he said. In turn, police issued a 2,700,000,000 peso bounty for Escobar and 100,000,000 pesos for each of his four key hitmen, which included Velasquez.

In 1991, a truce of sorts was called when Escobar agreed to go to prison for five years in return for the abolishment of a planned extradition treaty with the United States. Velasquez joined him along with some of Escobar’s other lieutenants.

Though he admits he did wrong, he believes he’s done his time, even stating he paid for Escobar’s crimes too. He says he is now a reformed man who gets more thrills from writing books than killing.

Surprisingly, some of his victims agree he has paid his dues. Others, however, believe he shows no real remorse and should be back in prison.
How John Jairo Velasquez Got Into The Medellin Cartel

John Jairo Velasquez was born 70 miles north of Medellin in the Colombian town of Yarumai. At age 12, his family moved to Itagui, a suburb of Medellin, where he almost immediately started in a life of banditry.

His fascination with firearms led him to become a local policeman and to take a course at the officer candidate school for Marines.

“I had a wide jaw and was quite strong,” he said. “One day, I was back in my neighborhood, wearing my uniform, when a neighbor said, ‘It’s Popeye!’”

The nickname stuck, but life in the Marines didn’t, and soon he joined the Mafia full-time. At first, he worked for a childhood friend. Before long, he was operating under Pablo Escobar directly.

He was 18 when he killed his first person, a bus dispatcher in Medellin:

“When he was the driver, the mother of a friend of Pablo Escobar’s got off the bus and had a fall, and he didn’t help her. He left her there and she died. So, when this guy got some money, he asked Pablo Escobar to help him get revenge on this driver. I made some inquiries, found the guy and killed him.”

Velasquez said he felt nothing at all after killing him. “It was then that I realized I had a stomach for crime.”

In the early 1980s, Escobar helped form Los Extraditables to wage war against the Colombian state to prevent the extradition of drug traffickers to the United States. By then, Velasquez had become Escobar’s most loyal hitman and was heading operations that included contract killings, car bombings, and kidnappings.

According to Velasquez, Escobar “armed all the comunas in Medellin. The sicarios [or hitmen]. They were his base people. “

Velasquez and his hitmen would each “kill 5, 6, even 12 people a day…” which included policemen, judges, presidential candidates, rivals, and civilians.

“We started planting bombs to kill government ministers, journalists, and judges. We’d kidnap politicians, so they’d amend the constitution and stop the Colombians being extradited.”

He organized the kidnapping of Attorney General Carlos Mauro Hoyos and Mayor Andres Pastrana Arango, who would later became the Colombian president in 1998.

Despite the terror, presidential candidate Luis Carlos Galan proved unwavering in his support of extradition, and in 1989 he was assassinated. “I felt satisfaction [after killing Galan],” Velasquez told Mexican reporter Adela Micha in an exclusive two-hour interview in 2015. “Today I realize it was a horrible mistake.”

John Jairo Velasquez killed over 250 people and masterminded the deaths of 3,000 more while serving as the top hitman for drug kingpin Pablo Escobar during the 1980s.

“I’m a professional killer, I kill for money. I also killed out of love and respect for Pablo Escobar,” he said in the Russia Today documentary Escobar’s Hitman.

Velasquez, better known as “Popeye,” has become a controversial figure in Colombia since his release from prison in 2014 after serving 22 years for his crimes.

Far from being an outcast, he is seen by some as a hero. On the street, people shake his hand in the street and rush to have photographs taken with him.

He has certainly profited from his newfound celebrity status by writing two books, starring in an action film, and being involved in the production of Alias J.J., a Netflix show based on his life in prison. He’s also become an unlikely political activist with his hit YouTube channel where he routinely criticizes the Colombian government and preaches anti-corruption.

What exactly do they want from this guy?

Its simply a grand plan to render him irrelevant in the oncoming elections.
They want to useless him politically in Kogi.

Officialpdpnig:
Even Premium times has joined the lie. At the end of the audio Amaechi actually said NIGERIANS WILL NEVER CHANGE and not NIGERIA WILL NEVER CHANGE.

He was simply mocking the mindset of Nigerians for complaining over 3 years of buhari as if they didn't have the same issues for 16 years of PDP.

Some of us are smarter than what these paid media outlets dish out

Mocking the mindset of Nigerians and he was telling the listeners not to publish it

Abfinest007:

Burna boy was right after all. I can't believe I share the same country with apes who think money can be conjured from thin air via a females panties.

She might have still been alive if she had rushed to the hospital but she chose to listen to a fraudster in the guise of pastor.

Thank you sir. Exactly my thoughts.

You guys need to cut the bank some slack.
I am yet to see a bank that did system upgrade without
it being accompanied by network challenges.
From my transactions with the bank lately, I have noticed a great improvement and I have no doubt that with the upgrade concluded, network will be much faster and better this year.

This ekuke will never get the accolades given to Jack who stood and defended his master's compound to the end even when Nnamdi KANU had already run away.

An Ekuke will always be an ekuke.
How is it protecting that man when it allowed people get that close to him?
The ekuke further disgraced him by turning him into a footstool.

Will those folks have gone that close if it were a Doberman or a Pitbull?
Would they have had the effrontery to stand and film this?

In my opinion, the only protection that man is getting is from the policeman in the picture.

This man. Always making senseless posts. Smh

Good riddance.......
We will rest from all the noise making from the noise makers now.

Nnamdi Cownu said he only missed his dog JACK most, out of all the casualties he caused to die!!
What manner of leader!
We reasonable people from that side know the best thing for us...... Joe Igbokwe!

GOD BLESS OUR PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI



This one has been brainwashed into believing he is a slave in his country, talking about someone coming to deliver him!
Someone that ran away for most part of the year!
How can this kind of person will ever reason well?
This is irredeemable obviously!

But I tried it now and the radio station is still up. Which one did they block.. Did Lair Muhammad issue this statement?

Na wah ooo, Hope Uzodinma always seems to be a step ahead of Okorocha. Imagine Okorocha got a court order, the man quickly got his own setting it aside. That man is a super strategist Ooo.

But I have no doubt APC will loose in Imo State.

Patrioticman007:
Trouble dey sleep yanga go wake am. If not what's the nexus between FFK & Nnamdi kanu ?. Why stand as surety to a Terrorist, knowingly he was likely to jump bail. FFK has forgotten his place in contemporary Nigerian politics & criminality. If not, FFK who himself is enjoying a bail currently,thinks he is above the law. The court will forfeit the bonds they entered to which is around 200,000,000. Million. More revenue for pmb to use in developing Nigeria.

See your mouth. How dare you call KANU a terrorist. So why did all the western countries refuse to proscribe the group even after all attempts by your Liar Muhammad?. You and your government are the real terrorists. Check out the number of Shiites you people have murdered so far.
I aint IPOB but i wont fail to state that the ineffectiveness exhibited by the Nigerian Police is unparalleled. How can you attack a man who's court case is just a few weeks away?. If you claim he has broken his bail conditions, why not wait till the case resumes and then use it against him.
That unnecessary attack by the Nigerian Military only points to the simple fact - he was marked for elimination!
