Operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has arrested arrested five suspects for vandalising bridges in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

In a press statement e-signed and released to the National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP by the Corps' Spokesperson, DCC Olusola Odumosu stated that, "In a renewed determination aimed at protecting Critical National Assets and Infrastructure (CNAI), the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), arrested five suspects for vandalising bridges in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT)".

According to the statement, "Members of the criminal syndicate were arrested following credible information and surveillance mounted by the Directorate of Intelligence and Investigation (DII) Crack Squad from the National Headquarters of the Corps with the support of other stakeholders."

Recovered from the suspects are vandalised 5 inches galvanized pipes (5 mm), angle irons and a hand saw which was used in carrying out the destruction.

It was uncovered that most of the suspects are artisans whose activities are domiciled around the crime scene which is located close to the headquarters of Federal Mortgage Bank, Central Business District, Abuja.

Recall that, the Commandant General of NSCDC, Dr Ahmed Abubakar Audi, mni, OFR, worried by the incessant vandalism and theft of manhole covers on roads in the FCT, Abuja, directed operatives of the Corps to redouble their efforts in ending the menace.

Following this directive, officers and men of the Corps immediately evolved new measures and renewed determinations to protect CNAI in the country nationwide; a move which resulted in the arrest of the suspects who confessed to having carried out the dastardly at night.

The Corps equally intensified collaborations and engagements with other security agencies, stakeholders and well-meaning Nigerians and it has started yielding positive results.

The arrested suspects are Abdullahi Bello, 18, Suleja LGA, Niger State, Julius David Madaki, 18, Sanga LGA, Kaduna State, Gambo Clement, 18, Sanga LGA, Kaduna State, Sadiq Abdullahi, 24, Billiri LGA, Gombe State and Abdulaziz Aliyu 25, Sanga LGA Kaduna State. A discreet investigation into the matter has commenced and would be followed by diligent prosecution of the suspects.

The Corps is on the trail of other members of the criminal gang who are currently at large and very soon, it's assured that, they will be arrested and brought to justice.

Protection of critical national assets and infrastructure is the core mandate of NSCDC and the Corps is determined to deliver alongside other mandates to justify its existence.

Vandals of bridges are warned to desist from this nefarious act of vandalising galvanised pipes and aluminium used in the construction and reinforcement of bridges or risk arrest and possible jail terms as security is beefed up around those public utilities by the eagle-eyed operatives of the Corps.

Vandalism of bridges constitutes great risks and dangers to the lives of users as they could fall to their untimely deaths unknowingly. A bridge could also collapse once it becomes weakened by the destruction of its various parts which makes it structurally deficient at some points.

The government is investing heavily in infrastructural development in the country and has provided bridges amongst other public utilities to ensure safe mode of passages or movements for citizens of different social and economic classes and also, to enrich the environment.

Citizens are enjoined to join hands with security agencies in ensuring protection and safety of lives and Public Infrastructure by giving useful and timely information to the Corps or any of the security agencies once anyone or groups of people are sighted vandalising them.

Following the brutal murder of seven personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) by bandits in Kaduna, the National Association of Online Security News Publishers (NAOSNP), has commiserated with the Commandant General of the outfit, Ahmed Abubakar Audi, and the rank and file for the unfortunate loss.

Speaking through a statement signed by the Association's Public Relations Officer, Mr Eric Elezuo, the body described the killing as one death too many and unfortunate, noting that wiping out Security operatives in the manner is not acceptable. 

"We commiserate and mourn with the Commandant General of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), officers and men of the Corps over the gruesome and unfortunate killing of seven officers while on active duty of protecting lives and property. 

"While we totally condemn the senseless murder of men, who are protecting Nigerian citizens, we pray that Almighty GOD give you all the fortitude to bear the loss, and bounce back to reckoning, in the task of protecting lives and infrastructure," the statement reads.

The Association further tasked the Corps and other sister agencies to put in the works to ensure that perpetrators of the dastardly act are brought to book within a short period. They also charged the Corps not to give in to intimidation as evil will not be allowed to triumph over good.

"This is surely a trying time for the Corps and security agencies, which may have suffered loss in the ambush, but you must not allow the act to derail your focus, but let it be the tonic needed to wipe out any trace of insecurity wherever they may exist. Evil must not triumph over good, and every hand must be on deck to ensure that those who do not want the nation to enjoy peace are made to pay the price," Elezuo said.

The statement further quoted the president of the Association, Oki Samson, as lending his voice to console family and friends of the slain officers, asking GOD to grant them heart to bear the terrible loss.

It would be recalled that on Monday, seven personnel of the Corps were ambushed and killed at Birnin-Gwari, Kaduna, while on national assignment just as another four died in a fatal road accident on the same day.

In preserving the twin legacies of their late parents which is quality education and economic empowerment, the children of late Engr. Akinola and late Mrs. Emiola Ogunsan have initiated a foundation which will cater to the needs of indigent students and entrepreneurs in the society.

Initiated and funded by the Ogunsan siblings comprising Dr. Ayo Ogunsan, Abbey Ogunsan, Lady Aduke Aina and Folorunsho Ogunsan, the AKEM Foundation will support pupils, empower people just as their parents were passionately doing for people while they were alive.

The AKEM Foundation was launched by the Ogunsans last Sunday 8th January in Lagos with the esteemed presence of friends, families, and well-wishers. The dignitaries include the Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG in charge of Zone 2 (Lagos and Ogun), AIG Bode Adeleke and his wife, Mrs. Modupe; the Commissioner of Police Lagos State Command, CP Abiodun Alabi; the Commissioner of Police (Armament), Force HQ Abuja, CP Adegoke Fayoade and his wife; the Commissioner of Police (Railways), CP Yetunde Longe; the MD/CEO of Infinity Paints, Mr. Sehindemi Johnson; Pastor Olaolu Akinola; Professor Albert from University of Lagos, Babajide Pinheiro; Commander Mopol 49, ACP Abubakar Yakubu; Commander RRS Lagos, CSP Saheed Egbeyemi; Chairman Taskforce Lagos, CSP Shola Jejeloye; SP Akerele Adetayo; Gbenga and Omolara Ayoola of Mount Zion Films, among others.

The AKEM Foundation will be giving out sums of money to support indigent pupils and young graduates to succeed in life. The organization will be administered by Dr. Mrs. Ajoke Ogunsan. For this first year, four organizations - SAMDOK Private School, Goshen Homes Orphanage, Smiles for the Orphans and Orphanage Initiatives, and Christ Light Special Mission for the Deaf - got N250,000 each at the official launch ceremony.

The initiative was hailed as a veritable way to immortalize the late parents rather than to throw lavish parties. Many attendees and beneficiaries at the event who spoke with
Trek Africa immensely applauded the thoughtfulness and kindness which has made the 4 Ogunsan's to birth the initiative.

In his remarks, the Chairman of the occasion, the AIG in charge of Zone 2, AIG Bode Adeleke hailed the Ogunsan's insight for the initiative. 'It is a laudable thing to do. Our parents, Akinola and Emiola passed away about 19, 15 years ago. And the children are still remembering them. They are not only remembering them, they want to ensure they have good legacies. Special thanks to God Almighty that has put it in their minds. I pray the Lord will give them the enablement to see it to fruition.'

'It is worth emulating and worth supporting. I have lost my parents too. I am going to go back to my family and start something.'

In the same vein, the Commissioner of Police, Lagos Command, CP Abiodun Alabi said: 'I want to appreciate the children for bringing this together and remembering their parents for who they are and particularly for celebrating them. I want to enjoin them to keep the flag flying. What we are doing today is worth commending.'

On his part, CP Fayoade Adegoke noted about the initiative, 'even though the parents are gone, some of you will agree with me that their spiritual support. In the course of life, you feel that your mother and father are there with you. I pray for Dr. Ayo and the siblings that no evil will befall them, the spirit of their parents will continue to be with them. As they made this commitment to uniquely honour their parents, honour will not depart from them anywhere they go.'

Seven personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) were ambushed and killed alongside 5 others from a sister security agency and local security service.

The personnel who were attached to the Kaduna State Ministry of Mines were ambushed and killed by bandits while on official duty at a mining site in Birnin Gwari LGA of Kaduna State.

The sad incidence took place on Monday 9th of January 2023, at about 10.00hrs at the Kuriga mining site in Birnin Gwari LGA of Kaduna State.

After the attack, the bandits carted away riffles of the slain operatives and the remains of the slain officers and men have been recovered and deposited at the Barau Diko Hospital Kaduna.

The piece, The Obsessive Security Chap Called Yusuf Bichi, by Adebowale Yemi, which appeared in Thisday Newspaper edition of Saturday, 7th January, 2023 is by all indication a hatchet man’s job. This is more so that it came from Adebowale Yemi, the Saturday Editor who writes without logic and reason. He is a hatchet man. Aspects of his constituency have been in defence of the new paymaster in town, Chief Emefiele, the CBN Governor and former Presidential aspirant of no political party.

The connection between Emefiele and Adebowale’s enclave is not in doubt. He is one writer without focus. As a loose cannon, he writes recklessly. He throws darts. He writes before he thinks. One wonders why a journalist of his standing (doubtful) would choose to write emotionally without facts. His previous writings on varied subject matters betray his exposure and composure as a lettered and trained penman. He simply casts aspersions on persons and tries to demean personalities he never came across.

His tirade on Bichi, the internationally acclaimed Director-General of the DSS is unnecessary. Bichi is known for his calmness. He is a thorough bred intelligence officer who Adebowale has tried to present as a non-achiever. No.

By the way, what does Adebowale know about intelligence and its management. I do not speak for the DSS. I will be surprised if the agency considers a response to the empty writing of Adebowale. A response to him will make him assume what and who he is not. But it is important that those who know Bichi and the discreet method of operation of the DSS put words across to the reading public lest it is believed that Adebowale is right.

On Emefiele, the DSS has not muttered a word. It is only the CBN Governor that is running helter skelter; pillar to post; mobilising all sorts of persons, groups and organisations to attack Bichi and his organisation, the DSS. Emefiele is a Nigerian. Assuming he was invited by the DSS, shouldn’t he go to answer? No one is above the law. That’s what the rule of law entails. In this same country, we saw former NSAs, Military Chiefs investigated and/or prosecuted. Sponsored groups and people will exhaust.

The time is nigh. DSS has maintained a studied silence without joining issues with Emefiele or his hired crowd. It is becoming apparent who the sponsors of the virulent attacks on Bichi are. Adebowale is doing the bidding of his pay master so he can earn his pittance. Rather than castigate Bichi, why not Adebowale and his cohorts encourage Emefiele to return to the country and not go into hiding in Jamaica and US. It is said that a clear conscience fears no accusation. Emefiele is doing all the reactions and defences. CSOs are holding press conferences for him. Clerics are defending him. Itinerant tribal associations and leaders are on his side. Good. Why don’t they advise him to come home and not abandon his seat.

Neither the DSS nor Bichi has come out to confirm they are looking for Emefiele or even declared him wanted. Yet, there are court actions initiated by Emefiele group(s). The court has issued a restraining order on the DSS from arresting Emefiele. Why doesn’t he return home to continue with his work? This is what is important now. Not to abuse or call Bichi names. I am certain the Bichi I know will not utter a word of reply unless he is not the taciturn intelligence czar we all imagine him to be.
For Adebowale, Bichi is a good for nothing person and has not achieved anything. To him and his ilk, Bichi should face criminal prosecution or get sacked as DGSS. Wonderful! What a recommendation?

Adebowale actually showed his heightened ignorance when he stupidly argued that Bichi “dabbles into areas he has no business with”. He mentioned that DSS intervention in what would have been the mother of all fuel scarcities in Nigeria prior to the yuletide if the Service did not intervene, was a waste of time. Adebowale did not think the intervention was necessary. He did not ascertain from NNPC, NARTO, NUPENG, PTD, DAPPMAN, MOMAN and the regulatory authorities if that was timely and result oriented. It is also obvious that Adebowale does not understand the role of DSS as an intelligence agency, policy adviser, security organisation and a law enforcement outfit.

That the agency is mandated to investigate economic sabotage of national security dimension is not in doubt. Only an Adebowale that did not see reason the impending sabotage was nipped. He preferred that the country went in flames as a result of the public agitations that would have followed the scarcity. The intervention did not matter to Adebowale. But it mattered to millions of ordinary Nigerians - home and abroad, who expressed their love for the agency under Bichi for the expeditious intervention.
It is needless educating Adebowale on the workings of intelligence services. A research will help him. On Sowore, Dasuki and El-Zakzaky, Adebowale should hold his jaundiced views. It is still part of his entitlement as an educated illiterate. Does Adebowale still remember that El-Zakkaky and wife in 2019 demanded while in India, to be returned to DSS custody because they preferred it to that of India. Bichi was the DG and still remains same.

Adebowale is using his pen wrongly. He is using it to misinform his audience. He is using it to espouse hate. Call him to defend his write up before the DSS and he will cry foul and run to everywhere. He cannot defend a line of his piece. He is only pushing an agenda as dictated to him by his controllers.

To say that Bichi’s “disdain for the rule of law is legendary” is a careless statement. It is idiotic if not abusive. If Bichi, “has no business staying a day longer in office”, the President and Commander- in – chief would not have reappointed him to a second term in office. He was considered for the honour of reappointment due to his excellent services. On all fronts relating to the execution of DSS mandate, Bichi has scored all time high.

Just recently, operatives under his command arrested those behind the bomb explosion in Kogi. This is just one out of many. Ask stakeholders about Bichi’s feats, analytical precision, preemptive disposition, team spirit and unparalleled achievements, he is an alpha man. He is not given to the type of noise that Adebowale’s circle make.

Adebowale and his Emefiele gang can never equal the accomplishments of Bichi. Bichi has won laurels including awards in human rights, corporate and human resource management, interagency relations, humanitarian services among many others from within and outside Nigeria. He is a champion of repute that cannot be diminished by a thousand Adebowales. In the DSS, news abound of how his staff love him because of his affectionate and fatherly mien. Adebowale, you are wrong with Bichi. Look for another target.

The Carol which was held at the Hippo House at Ikoyi has in attendance the Former Nigerian Ambassador to Brazil Ambassador Christopher Okeke, Chairperson NAOWA 81 Division Chapter Dr (Mr) Ada Ajunwa Corps Commander Nigerian Army Supply and Transport Major General Erema Akeredola, Deputy Commandant Nigerian Armed Forces Resettlement Centre Major General Parker Undiandeye, the Managing Director Zenith Bank PLC Mr Ebenezer Onyeagwu and the Chief Security Officer of Globalcom Limited Major Nobert Okoro (rtd). Others are the representative of the Naval Doctrine Command, Representatives of the Assistant Inspector General of Police Zone 2, the General Manager of Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, and Commanders and Principal Staff Officers of the Division among several other dignitaries and families of troops.

The GOC, who read the eighth lesson from Mathew Chapter 2: 1-12 espoused on how the wise men were led by the star to the saviour. In his Christmas Goodwill message, the GOC admonished Christians to uphold the tenets of good neighborliness while making individual sacrifices that exemplified God. He said this is the period to show love and remember those who have the interest of the nation at heart. According to the GOC, most of the troops are on the battlefield while their wives are left behind to take care of the home front. General Ajunwa disclosed that this has necessitated spending some time with the families of his troops to appreciate their efforts while their respective husbands are fighting to ensure peace in the country at the battlefront

On his part, Reverend Father F Yateghteg while delivering the Christmas Message admonished Christians to contribute their quota to make their environment a better place.

“Christ came so that our society can be better. In a similar vein, we can make our society and environment better than we met it. Christmas is about love and sharing what you have; identifying with one another and being truthful with one another h noted. He also reiterated the need to show the enemy; forgiveness, friends/ comrades; confidence, opponents; tolerance, customers; good service, spouse; fidelity, self; respect, and to all give; love.

During the Carol, several songs were taken by the combined mass choir of 81 Division Chaplain Services and members of the Women Fellowship. The songs included the first Noel, Once in Royal David’s City, Away in a Manger, and Silent Night. Other songs are See amid the Winter, Little Town of Bethlehem, While Shepherd watched their flocks by night, Unto us a child is born, and Joy to the world.

The Carol dovetailed into the thanksgiving and subsequently by prayers and benediction taken by Lieutenant Colonel Venerable A Amuluche before the Halleluyah chorus by the mass choir which led to the recessional carol.

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise GOD

By Oluwaseun Fabiyi

We are born differently on the surface of earth. Some are born with a silver spoon in their mouths. Others had their kernels cracked for them. For the most indelible set, they struggle through life to attain greatness. My hard-working award-winning big Aunty, Mrs. Olubunmi Ojo Afolabi belongs to this last descriptive category. Is there anything legitimate in the pursuit of life that Mrs. Olubunmi has not done, from academic, business to entrepreneurship, investment, diplomatic calling, spirituality, socio - transfiguration? to None!

With a dints of hard work, this altruistic and affectionate character of a lovely Sister/Aunty has wined and dined with the high and mighty in the society despite his humble beginning.

The Founder and CEO of Klassik Party Limited an event company based in London is a darling of high profile personnels, Kings, the wealthy and unparalleled personages in the society. I see with unbridle clarity that truly when there is will, there must be a way. In Mrs. Olubunmi Ojo Afolabi's psychology of life, the only impossibility in the world is what you have not given a trial in which many of her allies learnt from her outstanding performances.

No wonder the award-winning Mrs. Olubunmi is winning every or most of her battles.

Without pain there's no gain, I speak from a vantage to say that the socialite, quintessential beautiful woman that we celebrate today does not look like what she had passed through in life even as a widow. Sometimes when we reflect in our quiet sobriety, we always ended chorusing all adoration and praises to GOD.

She has not for a day detach from the lowliest of the people in the society because she believes the only thing that distinguishes us all is the grace of God. Olubunmi Ojo Afolabi, can be fanatical to some three things in life, her Parents, Family, and God. She will not compromise on these triplets choices.

Olubunmi, will let go her own desires and acquisitions just to make sure the next person flourishes if she was convinced that such a man or woman is more needy. She is rich in character, deeds and behaviour.

On this anniversary of your Golden Jubilee celebrations galore, this is wishing my favorite resourceful Aunty long life. I pray for you that all doors that are opened will never be shut and the doors which are yet to open, GOD will deliver thy keys to you. Congratulations Ma'am.

Oluwaseun Fabiyi, Publisher of BethNews, is the media aide to Mrs. Olubunmi Ojo Afolabi and Dreamfo Foundation International.

Russians are accusing Putin of ignoring domestic problems while focusing on the war in Ukraine.

Some Russians are complaining about a lack of heating in their homes, The Daily Beast reported.

Forbes Ukraine estimated last week that Russia has spent around $82 billion in the war so far.

Russians are angry President Vladimir Putin is spending billions on an increasingly unpopular war in Ukraine as they freeze back home, The Daily Beast reported on Thursday.

As Russian troops continue to strike Ukraine's vital power in fractures — plunging millions into darkness — Russians at home are also struggling to keep afloat amid crippling Western sanctions.

People living in many of the remote regions of the country, where conditions are at their worst, have been complaining about a lack of heating in their homes and burst water pipes, The Beast reported, citing social media posts.

Remote regions including Tyumen, Karaganda, and Yakutia are among the worst affected, reporting many victims of frost in the past week, the outlet reported.

"They take young men—the only breadwinners—away and send them back in coffins. The guys freeze on the front, get sick, die while their families live in poverty," Valentina Melnikova, an activist with the Soldiers' Mothers Committee, told The Beast.

"It seems authorities have no interest left in human lives at this point," she added.

Nikolay Zolotov, a Russian blogger who lives in a republic in Siberia, told the Beast: "Dark times. Ukraine is surviving without heating and light and here in Khakasia our life is awfully hard."

"Bursting pipes is not the worst problem: people live on tiny salaries in a poorly maintained city, without cash to buy food, while our government spends billions on the special operation in Ukraine," he added.

It is unclear how much exactly Putin is spending on the war in Ukraine, which continues nine months after the Russian leader launched his large-scale invasion.

Forbes Ukraine estimated last week that Russia has spent around $82 billion — a quarter of its annual budget.

Among other costs, this estimate includes nearly $29 billion that Moscow has allocated to support its army with weapons and equipment, $16 billion for soldiers' salaries, and more than $9 billion to pay off the families of servicemen killed in combat.

The war will not get any cheaper for Putin, Forbes Ukraine said, estimating that it will cost at least $10 billion a month going forward.

The reports come amid numerous battlefield setbacks in recent weeks for Russia, which has started looking to countries like Iran, North Korea, and Syria for assistance.

Other reports of mobilized Russian soldiers being deployed with little training and poor equipment have prompted more Russians to publicly voice their criticisms.

Before the war, which started on February 24, Putin admitted that poverty was Russia's biggest challenge, calling it the country's "main enemy" in 2019, The Beast reported.

"Our main goal is to improve the quality of life for our citizens," he said.

Meanwhile, Russian attacks have crippled half of Ukraine's energy infrastructure, a top World Health Organization official said last month, leaving millions of people across the country without power and water.

The upcoming winter "will be about survival" for Ukrainians, the official warned.
