“The assertion by @GarShehu that a bunch of murderous thugs, psychopathic vagabonds, barbaric rapists, merciless ritualists & vicious killers have a right to reside in the forests of Ondo & SW & continue to slaughter& rob our people is insulting, provocative, asinine & absurd.

“Quit notices cannot be given to law-abiding citizens in any part of Nigeria and I have always opposed such notices. However they can and must be given to those that kill, steal & seek to destroy the lives of others.

“Murderous terrorists and bloodthirsty and evil men that hide in the forest to ambush, kidnap, kill and destroy innocent and hardworking men and women have no constitutional rights. It is the duty of Governnent to not only flush them out from whichever hole they are hiding but also to despatch them to hell where they belong.

“Akeredolu has done & said the right thing and I urge every single SW Governor to do the same. Fulanis, Hausas, Igbos, Ijaws & ALL Nigerians are welcome in the SW but terrorists, bandits, killers & unhinged, bloodlusting and bloodthirsty psychopaths and sociopaths are not.

“Buhari do your job and stop the killings. Stop turning a blind eye simply because they come from your tribe. Stop brushing this under the carpet and treating them with kid gloves simply because they are your footsoldiers. Stop protecting them and stop encouraging them.”

“It is a sad one for me, the Government of Imo State, the Catholic community and particularly, the Owerri Catholic Archdiocese, as death has been announced of Rev. Msgr. Raph Madu,” he said.

“I found out I had fibroids in 2017, I remember freaking out so much. The first gynecologist I saw said if it wasn’t really bordering me he would advice I leave it alone but that I had better go and quickly get married (� no jokes),” she wrote.

Ini also said she was to undergo surgery to remove it in March but the COVID-19 distrupted the process.

“Anyways, fast forward to March 2020, the bulge on my lower belly had gotten bigger & my new gynecologist advised I take out the fibroids. Then Covid happened and we had to put the surgery on hold,” she said.

“Today, I turn 40! I feel very fortunate and blessed. I don’t have much to regret. All my life, I’ve been counted among the lucky few.

“Sooo I'm seeing orisirisi on the timeline. Covid-19 testing is free, at the government labs... if you have symptoms of covid. If you're travelling out or in you need to pay. If you're travelling in you need to have taken a test maximum 96 hrs before you return.

“You also need to pay for a repeat test that you'll take 7 days after arrival. The reason is simple... Incubation. You're supposed to isolate for the 7 days after arrival then test before you mingle. Things can change between test 1 and test 2.

“There are very few countries that will test willy-nilly. No one can afford it, PCR testing is incredibly expensive. It's best we abide by laid down guidelines which are for the public good and safety. Belly aching solves nothing,” she tweeted.

“Covid Testing for people showing symptoms and require treatment, is FREE in Lagos State. Both Treatment and testing.”

Men of Ogun Police Command have arrested three brothers identified as Okiki Mulero (23), Micheal Mulero (21), and Joseph Mulero (17) for beating a So-Safe corps officer who was on guard duty at OGD Estate Asero to death on the eve of Christmas, Igbere TV reports.

A statement released by the spokesperson of the state police command, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, states that trouble started when one of the suspects Okiki Mulero, who is a commercial cyclist was denied entrance into the estate for carrying more than one passenger contrary to the rule of the estate.

Oyeyemi said this infuriated him and he called his two brothers, Micheal and Joseph Mulero who came to the scene and they jointly attacked the two security guards with planks.

“In the process, one of the security men by the name Segun Godfrey Barde was hit with a plank and he slumped.

“He was subsequently rushed to O&A hospital where he gave up the ghost on Friday 25th of December 2020 while receiving treatment”, Oyeyemi said.

The police spokesperson said the case was reported at Obantoko divisional headquarters by the CDA executives of the estate, consequent upon which the DPO, CSP Sunday Opebiyi detailed his detectives to go after the suspects, and they were subsequently apprehended one after the other.

He said they all confessed to the commission of the crime.

He added that the state Commissioner of Police, CP Edward A. Ajogun has ordered the immediate transfers of the case to the homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation and prosecution.

“The corpse of the victims has been deposited in the mortuary for post mortem examination”, Oyeyemi said.
