Suspected Bandits Kill Three Kogi Policemen, Five Others by iwaeda: 9:46pm On Jul 30, 2022
Three police officers and five vigilantes have been killed in an ambush by suspected bandits in Ajaokuta, Kogi State.

The killings occurred on Saturday when suspicious movements were reported at the Ajaokuta police station.

An eyewitness told our correspondent that the locals had reported at the Divisional Police Headquarters that some people were using their farms for criminal activities. The DPO immediately mobilised his men and some vigilantes with a view to repelling the impending attack.

Our source, who pleaded anonymity, said that unknown to them, the hoodlums had laid ambush for them and opened fire on sighting

Confirming the killings, the Kogi State Security Adviser, Commander Jerry Omadara (retd.), said the three police officers and five members of local vigilantes were killed in an ambush on Saturday.

According to him, Divisional Police Officer, acting on intelligence report that hoodlums had invaded their farm and engaging in illegal activities, mobilised officers in collaboration with men of local vigilantes and headed for the area.

They were, however, ambushed and in the process, eight of them were killed including three police officers and five members of the local vigilantes.”

Omadara, however, said that no matter what, the state government would not rest until the culprits were brought to book.

He said that the state government under Alhaji Yahaya Bello had assured the people of the state of adequate government protection as Saturday’s incident would not be allowed to repeat itself.

If this were to happen in the neighboring east, they will call it unknown gunmen or any other name that suits them.

We know the country is sick at the moment but let us talk about a man whom God will use to change the destiny of this country and make Nigeria great again. The person is Bola Bola Ahmed Tinubu popularly called BAT.
Just a brief about this brilliant politician

(1) TINUBU was the first politician to start "Economic Summit" this talks about the visionary sagacity of the man.
(2)TINUBU pioneered the "Treasury Single Account (TSA)". This was later adopted by the Federal Government with much success.
(3) TINUBU was about to put an end to electricity problem by starting "Independent Power Project" in partnership with Enron in Lagos state. If not for Obasanjo and PDP government who forced Tinubu to give up the power to national grid, there wouldn’t be the problem of electricity in Lagos state by now.
(4) TINUBU introduced "Digital Economy" to governance through Lagos Tax Administration. I believe he can repeat that at the national level.
(5) TINUBU as a Governor "Created 37 Local Govt. Council Development Areas (LCDAs)". This is a major part of restructuring that many are only clamoring for now.
(6)TINUBU brought innovation to education when he began to appoint Pupils who Excelled Academically as Acting Governor of Lagos.
(7) TINUBU was the first Governor to involve Nigerians from other states to work and become officials of Lagos state government.
(cool TINUBU was first to break the master plan machinery of elections rigging in Nigeria thereby helping to reclaim SouthWest states stolen mandates from PDP.
(9)TINUBU was the first and last Governor who governed his state for years without the full Federal Allocation (FAAC) from Abuja.
(10) TINUBU was the leader who started Telecommunication revolution in Nigeria through Econet before it became a national success story.

Many more things could be said, I believe Tinubu is head and shoulders above any other candidates in this race. No one in Nigeria of today can boast of such achievements.

We aren't in the business of insulting others which has become the Trademark of the supporters of a particular presidential candidate. We want to believe that such character exhibited by such people is the nature of the person they are supporting. So all insults from them are welcomed. We are used to it already

You will expect that the security agencies will swing into full action like they do in the south east while BMC's will be blaming it on Igbos for killing security agencies and even justifying the killings of innocent people and burning of houses in the south east using that ant infested wood bullshit they keep spewing while ignoring the truth that...

Buhari is the problem, but I blame Tinubu for bringing the problem...

their Intel was very wrong and it looks as if the police thought they were going to arrest unarmed men. unknown to them they were going to arrest men who were prepared to die.

Just this morning

Anyone working against State Police and Privately armed guards should have a rethink at this moment.

No group should be empowered against another

Nigeria is virtually a failed state already.... It's either the international community ensures they impact the next election or watch Nigeria sink into civil war and then they would have an unprecedented refugee crisis on their hands
