Taking a close look at all that happened in these past days in the course of the #ENDSARS protest, it seemed to me like the North were not really in support of it. Apart from Abuja which is basically no man's land and Jos, I saw no protest in the north.
The protest was later upgraded to #EndBadGovernment and #Buharimustgo; yet there was little or no participation from the North.

My questions are these?
Is it that SARS never harassed those living in the North?
Is there a different form of governance going on in the North?
Is the cost of living different there?
Why was the North absent in the protest?

The fight gets tougher. Oshiomole vs Obaseki...

The Federal High Court sitting in Benin City, Edo State, has stopped the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) from conducting its Governorship election.

According to the ruling, the court on Monday granted an order, restraining the APC and its national chairman, Adams Oshiomhole from conducting any primary election in Edo State.

Till the determination of the suit on June 11, the restraining order would be in place.
A state governorship election was set to hold in September.
Six aspirants drawn from two camps are in the race for Edo APC governorship ticket.

Five of the aspirants include a former Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Mr Osagie Ize-Iyamu, who recently defected from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to APC, and a former Deputy Governor of the state, Dr Pius Odubu.

Governor Obaseki on the other hand, is the sole aspirant from his faction of the party.

Police should relocate
The Aboh PCRC boss asserted: “We call on the Inspector General of Police to direct the officers in charge of Delta State to relocate them from the rented house they are occupying to the permanent place that was provided for them by the community and make the place habitable and also provide them with weapons to fight crime.”
Aboh Police operating without arms since 2018- Hon Opone, councilor
Councilor representing Aboh – Ward 10 in the Ndokwa East Legislative Arm, Mr. Azuka Opone, disclosed: “Before now, we were very okay. The police were doing the needful while the community youths were also assisting in the aspect of security, we also have the vigilante, but ever since militants came through the river and attacked the police station, vandalized the station, removing their arms, they have been operating without arms.”
“The community is a very nice community where the people also cooperate. They have been seeing reasons the community should be in peace, working hand in hand with the police as well.
On what generated the problem
“It was during the flood time. The police station is close to the water and during the flood, the area is usually submerged by flood and water gets close to the police station.
“They (the hoodlums) parked their speed boat close to the police station and started shooting their guns. That should be around 1.00 am. They went to the police station, killed two policemen and removed their arms, went back to their boat and drove away,” he added.
Hon Opone explained: “There is communal effort, the police are trying their best, the vigilante have been cooperating and the youths are also doing the needful.
“They cooperate as a team, the vigilante, the anti- cult and the police to protect the police station and fight crime in the area,” he said.
DPO complained about poorly-built armory – Chukwuma, youth president
Ochi-agha, (Youth President), Mr. Odogwu Chukwuma, told our reporters in Aboh: “When those pirates attacked the police station, I was called, then I called my executive members. We went there, assisted them to rescue the one of them, but before getting to the hospital, he died on the way.”
“Since then we have been trying to see what we can do to maintain peace, we built cordial relationship with them in conjunction with the voluntary security agencies, talking about the anti-cult, vigilantes and even the various quarters’ chairmen, all were mandated to see how everybody will maintain his area and since then, this has helped to reduced major crime.
“Actually there is a place for them to stay, but one time, the DPO reported that why they would not want to move in there was because the armory was not decked, that they used ordinary PVC or asbestos for the ceiling and for that reason, they cannot move in there.
I’m yet to be updated – Commissioner Inuwa
Vanguard had a full blown interview with Commissioner Inuwa in his office at Asaba, yesterday afternoon. On the Aboh saga, we asked: “There is a very sad discovery that we made at Abor Police Division, that division was raided in 2018 by suspected militants/pirates, who took away five AK 47 rifles and some rifles belonging to a vigilante group. We found out that up till date, the police division has no firearms, are you aware of this situation?
Commissioner’s response: “I am not, as far as I am concerned, I not aware, I am yet to be briefed on this.”

COPIED!

Pirates stole 5 AK-47, vigilante rifles – Chief Ugboma, PCRC chair
The Ndanike of Aboh kingdom and Chairman, Police Community Relations Committee, PCRC, Chief Charles Ugboma, stated: “By the special grace of God, I am the chairman of PCRC. The station is being managed by the DPO and myself. When the incident of 2018 happened, God was and still with me because they would have started with me, it was just by my house that they landed.
“They came at about 1a. They went there, they were seven, five went up, one was patrolling, one was with the engine (speedboat). So the five that went up started shooting, shot one immediately, that one died. Then a lady, who was a police woman was up, not too well, when she heard the gunshots, she shouted because they thought there was no other policeman, so the woman said ‘Musa who dey shoot?’. They now knew somebody was up, so when they went upstairs, they dragged the woman down, asking her, ‘who are you?
“Experience made the woman to say, ‘I be accused person, I bite somebody, the police arrested me and I was locked up here. Tomorrow, my people will come bail me.
“They did not believe her, but there was another gunshot, the one who was asking was attracted and the woman found her way and ran way. They asked her where is your DPO, she said “I nor know who be DPO. They asked her again, Where your armory? She said “I never hear that kind English.’
“They started breaking the doors, they saw the armory and they carted away about four or five AK-47 with some rifles belonging to Vigilante.
“I am also the head of the vigilante here in the local government and the patron. Since then, we have been managing the station with the rifles owned by the vigilantes and the anti-cult at the police station there and we have been managing to see if we can get reinforcement here.
”I do not know why there is no seriousness in the demand, so we allowed them. Every day, we get two pump action and rifle holders at the station. Anti-cult are the ones using the pump.
“Security in Aboh here is porous but we are managing because God is here and that is why we do not see anything that would make us cry out so much. The government is not doing us well here.”
On criminal activities in the community, abandoned police station
“The place is peaceful here, there is no kidnapping, no robbery but you cannot rule out pilfering, boys who are hungry, or who want to be rascals, but there is nothing serious.
“The 13 percent derivation building is the building given to them as their office, then the council also assisted by providing another six-room block.

“When the former Commissioner of Police, Ikechukwu Aduba came and went there for inspection, he said that the building was okay, but there were no facilities.
“I go there always to knock off the anthills that block the building. He told us to put borehole and everything that will make that place habitable and by the grace of God, we have gotten borehole from the High Court. They are close and they can manage it.
“If they want to go there, they can go there and make it habitable. Why they are not there now was because the commissioner of Police came and said no facilities there,” he added.

Ex-CPs knew the terrible situation and took no action
The former Speaker said some previous Commissioners of Police in the state were aware that Aboh Police Division had no weapons, but rather than equip the station, they draft operatives of the Special Anti- Robbery Squad, SARS, from Oleh or Asaba and other teams to stay in the community whenever there were operations to be executed.
He complained that the police officers make the poor villagers to donate money for their upkeep and once they run out of funds and could make no more sacrifice, they take their exit.
His words: “We are without security, Aboh is at the mercy of bad boys and thugs operate freely because the police here are not armed. Some criminals from Rivers state come to take refuge in Aboh where they already know there is no security.”
Saturday Vanguard visited the sleepy Aboh community on Tuesday, where we observed that the women of the community said to be very hard-working, had all gone to the farm. None on the street to speak to.
Police reluctant on leaving rented apartment for its own structure – Ozegbe, Secretary, ATC
At the palace of HRM Obi Imegwu II, the Obi of Aboh kingdom, where the chiefs and youths were already waiting for our crew, the Ozea of the kingdom, Chief Kenneth Odili-Ajie moderated the interaction with the people.
In attendance were the Secretary, Aboh Traditional Council, High Chief Joseph Ozegbe, Oshodin of the kingdom/Treasurer of the Council, Chief Henry Enebeli and Ndanike of Aboh kingdom, Chief Charles Ugboma Others were, the Councilor representing Aboh ward 10, the Ndokwa East Legislative Arm, Hon Azuka Opone, Ochi-agha, (Youth President) Mr. Odogwu Chukwuma and other notable indigenes of the kingdom.
Secretary, Aboh Traditional Council, High Chief Ozegbe, said: “It (raid) happened in 2018, it came to us as a surprise, it was a calamity. They collected their arms and ammunition and we have been saying that the place the police station is, is a rented place. You have to count one before you can count two. Generally, if you are on transfer to anywhere, the office that they said you should report to, go there and report. That is actually what we met but now, the police is going upside down.”
“There is a place for them and they ought to have been using that place. It was because of the porosity and nearness to the river that made the criminals succeed. If it were to be the other place, it would not have been possible. We told the Commissioner of Police in charge of the state, some years back, that it was high time they moved to that place but they are reluctant, they do not want to do it.
“There is a place that is manageable and secure for them to stay at the main time until the state or federal government build a place for them. This is what we are recommending, but they do not want to move.”
On how they have been securing themselves after suspected sea pirates carted away their weapons from the police station, he asserted: “There is nobody who can protect anybody except God, but with the cooperation of human beings because He has given us the grace. The cooperation of the police, youth and even the elders, things have been going on well, but it is the Almighty God that has been protecting us. “

Aboh police has no guns as we speak – Hon Imegwu, ex-Speaker
Former Speaker of Delta State House of Assembly and respected leader in Aboh, Rt. Hon Olisa Imegwu, who is familiar with the incident, told Saturday Vanguard unequivocally: “The Divisional Police Station at Aboh, headquarters of Ndokwa East local government area does not have arms and ammunition as we speak. Sometime in 2018, some criminals attacked the police station and stole their arms, I think they killed two policemen when they broke into the police station. The police authorities have not replaced the stolen arms till date.”
Hon Imegwu, who spoke in Asaba, asserted: “The rented apartment they are currently using as a temporal police station in Aboh was rented from me. We were in a speedboat going to Ashaka when a young man, who also boarded with us made a strange request to the boat driver. He wanted him to stop at a point on the river to enable him pick up a luggage. The request was abnormal because whenever a boat is loaded, the driver does not normally stop on the way to pick any luggage.”
“The driver’s reaction and that of all of us in the boat was that of shock, but the driver all the same granted the request of the passenger, who I couldn’t simply identify. Actually, at a certain point during the journey, he asked the driver to stop for him to pick the said luggage, we were waiting in the boat when the driver saw somebody carrying a bag, which he immediately suspected was containing guns and he screamed he does not ferry and would not transport guns.
“The young man, who owns the guns disembarked at that point and it was after that I got to know that the Aboh Police Division was raided the previous night. As soon as I got to where there was network, I called the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, he said he was no longer in Aboh, that he had been transferred to another station, I think he said Aladja Police Division.
Shoddy investigations
“I called other senior police officers and gave them the information I had and how they could get the boat driver to assist them with any clue he had about the passenger and his accomplice, but I was surprised that the police were arresting those that knew nothing about the incident, beating them and extorting as much as N600, 000 from them for bail.
“With the tactics they adopted, those who could have given them information about the suspects took flight, even the boat driver, who I guess might have known the commuter and the collaborator we saw with the luggage ran for his dear life from Aboh when he saw how police treated other innocent persons they locked up for months.
“Until today, I do not think the police got to know who stole their weapons and the authorities at Asaba have not bothered to equip Aboh Division with arms and ammunition since then,” he added.

FOR one year, seven months running, the Divisional Police Station, Aboh, supposed to provide security for coastal communities in Ndokwa East Local Government Area, Delta State, scandalously, has no arms and ammunition in its armory for police officers deployed to the division to fight crime.
The Burutu Police Division in Burutu Local Government Area also has scanty arms, about three AK-47 rifles, a pistol and 22 policemen to serve over 74 riverine communities.
Suspected militants and sea pirates allegedly plundered Aboh Police Station in September 2018, killing two police officers and carting away five AK-47 rifles and other vigilante firearms at the police station, but since then, the state Commissioner of Police has not deemed it expedient to replace the pilfered weapons.
To avoid further disgrace of the weaponless policemen, local vigilante and anti-cult groups have been synergizing with them in protecting the station and handling some security breaches in the division.
Findings by Saturday Vanguard show that Delta State Police Command has had four Commissioners of Police since the incident. Muhammad Mustafa handed over in December 2018 to Anthony Ogbizi. Adeleke Yinka took over from Ogbizi in February 2019, but about 10 months after, December 2019, Hafiz Inuwa, took charge. He has been in control for more than four months.
Our investigations show that residents of peaceful people of Aboh and surrounding coastal communities have been living at the mercy of bandits since then. Some hoodlums escape from Rivers state to take refuge in Aboh knowing that the police on ground were weaponless.
What baffled informed citizens of the area is the shoddy manner police detectives handled investigations into the theft of their own weapons, apprehending mainly innocent persons, who they tormented, squeezed money from and later released, while the real criminals they should have tracked down with intelligence information were never arrested till date.
An Assistant Commissioners of Police, ACP, who confirmed the development and asked our reporter not to quote him, said: “It is an embarrassment.”
It was learned that Aboh Police Station serves almost half of Ndokwa East local government area, but there is another police division, Ashaka, which serves the other section of the area.
In Burutua, policemen are ‘boys scouts’, they have no arms to operate – Stainless, Buruta CDC chair
Community Development Committee, CDC, chair, Burutu community, Mr. Pondy Ebipadeowei Stainless, hinted Saturday Vanguard: “Burutu community, headquarters of Burutu local government area, has a newly-created Police Area Command and Police Divisional office.
”Early, this year, I attended a South-South Security Summit in Asaba, where the Inspector General of Police, IGP, governors and commissioners were also in attendance. In that meeting, I told the IGP about the sorry state of the police in Burutu local government area, who expressed surprise and was jotting down points.
”The fact remains that there is no manpower, no arms and officers are not mobile because there are no patrol boats to police the riverine council area. They recently deployed 12 additional police officers to complement the existing 12 officers making it up to 24 to police over 74 communities in the council area. The additional 12 officers maybe as a result of my appeal at the Asaba summit.
”Again, in the Burutu police division, there are about three rifles and a pistol. In fact, the police in Burutu local government area are more or less Boy Scouts,” he said.

*requires no data for Airtel subscribers



THE Federal Government has launched free e-learning portals for all students in primary and secondary schools following the closure of schools nationwide to prevent the spread of COVID-19 pandemic.
Minister of State for Education, Mr Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, who announced this on Friday in Abuja during the daily briefing of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, said all students in Nigeria have been granted free access to following e-learning portals; the schoolgate.ng and the mobileclassroom.com.ng App.

“These e-learning platforms have been declared subscription free for Nigerian students in primary and secondary levels during the period of this lockdown as necessitated by COVID-19 pandemic,” he said.
Mobile Classroom is an indigenous mobile application that enables students to learn audio-visually through devices like phones and computers.
It had earlier offered all Nigerian students free access to its online portal without subscription for the period of suspension of academic activities in schools nationwide.

The minister said the timetable for online classes in all the states of the federation that have keyed into the programme have been provided in the platforms and could also be access at the Federal Ministry of Education website.
Nwajiuba said the Federal Government, through the Federal Ministry of Education, is collaborating with telecommunication sectors and network providers to grant the students free access to the portals on their mobile phones.
He added that online learning is being coordinated by the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) in conjunction with the States Universal Basic Education Boards (SUBEBs).

It would be recalled that due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Federal Government announced the nationwide closure of all educational institutions as part of measures to curtail its spread in the country.
According to the minister, this necessitated the need to explore other avenues to deliver lessons to students.

He added that the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu had also disclosed that Airtel Nigeria network users could already browse these e-learning portals for free while other telecom service providers like MTN, Glo, and 9mobile are currently making technical adjustment to their systems to accommodate this free access.
“This is the provision we have already made this in relation to how you can access these platforms,” he said.
On the question of how these classes are conducted, he explained that online classes are the same as off-line classes, saying “you can download them and keep and learn them at your pace.
“Online can be real-time if you are on the same wave and time when it is being taught.”
