We seems to be back to the norm as the Finnish authorities has released Simon Ekpa after series of interrogation.

A Nigerian activist working in local politics in Lahti was released

The Central Criminal Police confirms that it suspects the man arrested in Lahti on Thursday of a crime in Finland, but does not comment further on the matter at this stage. The man was released later on Thursday.

ON THURSDAY, DURING THE DAY, THE POLICE arrested Simon Ekpa , a separatist from Lahti, from his private apartment in Lahti. Ekpa was interrogated for a few hours, after which he was released.

Helsingin Sanomat's reporter had arranged an interview at Ekpa's apartment in the center of Lahti, when he ran into the officers of the Central Criminal Police in the house.

"The interview will move into the future," said the KRP policeman.

"Krp is doing its job here."

A few hours later, HS's cameraman witnessed how plainclothes police escorted Ekpa out of the apartment building in Lahti.

CRIMINAL INSPECTOR Tommi Reen from the Central Criminal Police confirmed to HS on the phone that on Thursday, the KRP had a police operation in a private apartment in the center of Lahti in connection with the ongoing preliminary investigation.

According to Reen, the police arrested one man from the apartment. Reen confirms that the KRP suspects the arrested man of a crime in Finland.

At this stage, he does not comment on the criminal title or open the case further. So far, it is not known what the preliminary investigation by the Central Criminal Police concerns.

Reen did not confirm the identity of the arrested person to HS, but spoke only on a general level about the arrest and the operation in the apartment located in the center of Lahti.

According to HS, the police operation in Lahti lasted several hours on Thursday.

Reen said later on Thursday evening that the suspect was interrogated for a few hours after the arrest. After this, the suspect was released.

"The person being questioned today is suspected of a crime. We will return to the title on Friday", Reen commented.

HS has not reached Ekpa to comment on the arrest.

EKPA is a local politician of the coalition in Finland. He is a member of the coalition council and represents his party in the public transport board of the Lahti region.

Ekpa is an influential player in the separatist movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and pushes for the independence of Biafra, located in southeastern Nigeria. He has called on people on social media to boycott Saturday's presidential election in Nigeria.

The Nigerian government has declared the Biafra independence movement illegal.

Lahti's Etelä-Suomen Sanomat newspaper reported on Thursday that Ekpa "doesn't hide the fact that he is participating in the elimination of government officials. He even leads the operation and acquires weapons”.

In an interview with Yle, Ekpa has claimed that he leads a rebel group from Lahti that wants to establish an independent state of Biafra in the southeastern part of Nigeria.

HS earlier reported that Ekpa publicly claims to have deputized the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) separatist movement, Nnamdi Kanu , after he was arrested. He also claims to command IPOB's armed wing, the Eastern Security Network (ESN).

However, some of those claiming to be members of IPOB or ESN accuse Ekpa of lying and misusing Kanu's name.

THE NIGERIAN administration is concerned that Ekpa's actions will jeopardize the country's elections, and Nigeria has asked Finland to intervene in Ekpa's activities. Last week, the Nigerian foreign minister invited the Finnish ambassador to a meeting because of the topic.

Jussi Nummelin , the team leader for Western and Central Africa at the Finnish Foreign Ministry , told HS a week ago that Finland shares the concern for security and condemns violence and incitement to it, as well as "actions that aim to prevent people from exercising their democratic rights".

Nummelin emphasized, however, that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not an actual party in the case, but that if it is a question of suspected crime, the police in Finland have jurisdiction.

You're only saying this because he criticize your fake lord peteru obituary. If he was criticizing Tinubu you will not be reporting anything. Shame on you and all zombidients. You're hypocrites.

You are daft and an iidiot... Check through my posts now and past if I ever support any party or candidates, I don't do that but when you begin to glorify an iidiot like you who thinks he has an opinion over every candidates then its sickening and disgusting.

@Seun needs to do better, he's far more smarter than this...

Fr33born:


Seun and almost all his moderators are BATIST's. Any post from anyone against Peter Obi and his supporters gives him joy and must grace the frontpage.

Its annoying... Any tweet from Deji must grace the FP even though it doesn't make sense. There are 100s of topics and posts begging for FP but they won't approve it.

I don't know when Deji became a public figure

MarketDispatch:


I can confirm that Banks have new notes, but they want to keep selling it to money changers to make profits hence the Balablu about not having the new notes.

Typical example below. New notes being sprayed at a party

Exactly... The problem is the bank managers selling to politicians and money changers. CBN has dispensed enough money to go round but the bankers are working with politicians to frustrate the process.

CBN needs to make one a scape goat by suspending their license for 6 months and see others sit up

Hehehe... Na wa oo... Money wey bank managers don waybill to politicians and money changers.. Now they are wailing... No going back abeg

Lol... Jokers

Wonder of the highest wonder

DontBullshitMe:
CBN will extend the deadline.

Pointless.

Stay there dey play... You no watch the interview by Buhari abi? E go shock you.. Bubu wey no send anybody

I read somewhere on Nairaland that some Lagos APC folks are claiming Lekki Sea Port is a Lagos State project, very funny...When people refused to read, they feed them with junks.

I was searching online and I came across this piece by AutoReportNG, he used to be one of the popular blogger on Nairaland then...

On October 31, 2022, the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for Lekki Port, China Harbour Engineering LFTZ Enterprise (CHELE), a subsidiary of China Harbour Engineering Company, announced the completion of the construction works on the first phase of the $1.5 billion port.

The development of Lekki Port, Nigeria’s first deep seaport, was undertaken by Lekki Port LFTZ Enterprise Limited, a special-purpose vehicle promoted by the Tolaram Group and China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd.

The port was completed by CHELE and handed over to the Lekki Port LFTZ Enterprise Limited, to take over a fully completed port after about 16 years the project was announced with fanfare in Lagos.

These are some major facts about the Lekki Port

1. Lekki Deep Sea Port, operational, but still partly under construction, is a multi-purpose, deep sea port in the Lagos Free Zone.

2. It is the largest seaport of Nigeria and one of the biggest in West Africa. Lekki port is to be expanded to have a capacity of handling around 6 million TEUs of containers and a significant volume of liquid and dry bulk uncontainerized cargoes.

3. The port is to be equipped with ships able to transport over 14,500 containers.

4. The port is being developed in phases. Its phase one, be operational in 2018, chiefly comprises three container berths equipped to handle more than 1.8 million TEUs — one berth for dry bulk goods and two berths for liquid cargo.

5. The port is financed by private investors and a consortium of banks who have funded the project with $1.5 billion as of March 2021.

6. The seaport is to occupy up to 90 hectares of land. It is expected to be completed in 2023 and operations to commence in the first half.

7. On October, 31st, 2022, the port has been handed over to the owners. Lagos State governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu promised on this occasion to expand the roads to the port to 6-lane highways.

8. The port has three terminals: the container terminal, the liquid terminal, and the dry bulk terminal.

9. The container terminal has an initial draft of 14 meters, with the potential for further dredging to 16.5 meters. The terminal is able to handle 2.5 million twenty-foot standard containers per year.

10. The deep-sea port of Lekki is the first port in Nigeria with ship-to-shore cranes. It has three of these container gantry cranes; they belong to the “Super-post-Panamax” group – this means that they can reach and unload the rearmost row of containers even if the container ship is wider than the Panama Canal (49 m or 160 ft maximum boat beam).

11. The port’s computerized system will allow container identification and clearance from the office, and human interaction will be minimal in the physical operations. Nevertheless, the port will create 169,972 jobs, according to the executive director, Du Ruogang.

12. The additional revenue for the Nigerian state through taxes, levies, and royalties are estimated at $201 billion. A directive from President Buhari (who will, however, leave the office at the beginning of 2023) provides for the deep-sea port to be connected to the Nigerian rail network.

13. When phase 2 will be finished, the deep sea port will have 3 liquid berths. The liquid cargo terminal will handle vessels up to 45,000 DWT (dead weight tonnage) and can expand to reach a capacity of 160,000 DWT. Liquids (like petrol or diesel) will be handled at a tank farm near the port. The docking area is equipped with loading arms. It is also connected by pipelines along the breakwater.

14. The bulk terminal will be finished with phase 2 and will be situated on the west side of the container terminal. The available quay length of 300m can accommodate a Panamax class vessel (75,000 DWT). Bulk products are brought to storage areas, such as silos and warehouses, via covered conveyor systems. The bulk terminal capacity is around 4 million tonnes of dry bulk annually.

15. On December 29, 2022, Lekki Port Enterprises announced, that it will fund a 800 million USD railway line from the harbour to Ijebu-Ode, where it will connect to the proposed railway line Lagos – Benin-City- Calabar (Eastern railway line).

16. The layout of the port, including the layout of approach channel, turning circle, and harbor basins have been derived from optimizations based on port operations, construction costs, and possible future extensions.

17. Two different breakwater concepts were applied for the main breakwater: A rubble mound with a geo-bag core for the near-shore sections and a composite breakwater for the more exposed sections. The main breakwater is 1.5 km long

18. The secondary breakwater was replaced by a barrier. The barrier consists of a core from sand, internally fortified by a protective geo-bag layer, a revetment on the harbor side, and an artificial beach on the seaward side.

19. The turning circle is 600 meters, enough for a vessel up to 16,000 standard containers (teu). The approach channel is 11 km long.

Which kain google did you consult for this rubbish?

I know a slowpoke like you will quote me and try to dispute the claim...

Well since its hard to hard and you be fooll... Here's a back up claim that FG owns Lekki Sea Port and not LASG

lhordspy:
Roy T. Bennett, in 'The Light In The Heart' said:

“Great leader have vision, share vision and inspire others to help them turn vision into reality"

This is the state of the same Lekki freezone today. An idea conceived in 2006, now worth $210billion and with a capacity to provide 170k jobs for youths.

Tinubu's 2006 dream. Lagos 2023 reality.

You need to research between Lekki Seaport and Lekki Free Trade Zone.

Lekki Seaport is owned and funded by the Federal Govt of Nigeria not LASG... Google is free na

blowjohn:



Those countries organise pass our own. They already have good health care centres and dedicated facilities.

Stop disgracing your village ppl online. A simple research of 5mins would have helped

Most of the reaponses here are shameful... Do you guys even read at all?

One mentioned you need light to power drones... Hahaha... It shows we have so many kids here..

The question is, is it the government that owns this firm or a private company? This same Zipline has been operating in Ghana and some other countries for years, why should Nigeria be different?

All I see here is mental slavery and most of una just talk without research

Energy drink is very very deadly... Irs better to take coke and pepsi than thos cocaine in cans

Wahala

Lol... Says someone that went to Ota to dobale for endorsement from OBJ...

These folks have zero shame... Useless and very very silly
