The Anambra State Police Command said it had taken four suspects into custody over two separate incidents that have recently sparked a chain of reactions across the state, involving the alleged murder and secret burial of a young woman and the brutal abuse of a 10-year-old boy who reportedly sustained severe burns after being tortured with molten plastic.

The Command disclosed that the arrests followed timely intelligence and information supplied by vigilant residents, whose cooperation, it said, has continued to aid security agencies in exposing criminal activities and bringing offenders to justice.


According to the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga who disclosed this in a statement issued to newsmen on Monday, the first suspect, identified as 33-year-old Ifechukwu Okechukwu, is currently under investigation over the alleged murder of his 23-year-old girlfriend and the subsequent secret burial of her body in a shallow grave.

ABUJA, NIGERIA – The Senate Committee on Public Accounts has thrown Nigeria’s political and oil sectors into a state of panic after ordering the immediate arrest of the immediate past Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Mele Kyari. The directive was issued following Kyari’s repeated failure to appear before lawmakers probing financial discrepancies flagged in federal audit reports.

AWKA — The claims surrounding the historic 2013 Ezu River incident have resurfaced, drawing scrutiny over the timeline of events, the role of former Governor Peter Obi, and subsequent legal battles during the #EndSARS panels.


WATCH VIDEO

Residents of the Amansea community on the border of Anambra and Enugu states discovered dozens of decomposed male corpses floating in the Ezu River. While initial local estimates claimed over 30 to 50 bodies, official police and Senate investigative reports eventually accounted for between 18 and 35 corpses. No definitive video of “singing youths” has ever been officially linked by forensic investigators to the floating victims.

At the time of the discovery, Peter Obi was serving as the Governor of Anambra State. In immediate response to the crisis, Obi visited the scene, expressed deep shock, and placed a ₦5 million bounty on information to help identify the bodies or apprehend those responsible.

The political undercurrents blew open during an oversight session convened by the Senate Committee on SEDC, chaired by Senator Orji Uzor Kalu. While the session was officially masked as a routine financial audit, insiders allege the aggressive confrontation was a calculated proxy war aimed at dismantling the political footprint of the Deputy Speaker.

ABUJA — A full-blown crisis has ruptured the national leadership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) following revelations that the National Leader of the party, Senator Seriake Dickson, repeatedly boycotted over 50 phone calls from Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso over the control of the Kano State party structure.

The administrative showdown escalated into direct diplomatic hostility when an executive delegation dispatched by Kwankwaso—comprising Kano political figures Comrade Aminu Abdulsalam and Alhaji Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna—was barred by security and blocked from entering Senator Dickson’s private residence.

ABUJA — Severe political panic has gripped the national working committee of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) following the conspicuous absence of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso from the party’s vital National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.

The development has fueled intense rumours regarding Kwankwaso’s imminent exit from the newly formed opposition alliance, triggering sharp internal friction between the faction loyal to Peter Obi and the Kwankwaso-led “Red Cap” political movement.

As structural unease mounts over a potential split in the opposition coalition, deep sources reveal that the Obi camp is already weighing emergency contingency strategies. Specifically, Obi is reportedly considering replacing Kwankwaso’s slot with the highly unconventional, local security strategist who previously advised him on successful community-policing frameworks to tackle rampant insecurity during his tenure as Governor of Anambra State.

He has sued for calm, urging his supporters to stay focused on the broader electoral picture while affected aspirants initiate aggressive legal challenges against the party’s high command.

The quote, which was captured on video during a political mobilization event in Lagos, resurfaced as civil society groups and commentators review the historical rhetoric of Nigeria’s current political leaders.

During the 2019 encounter, Mrs. Tinubu was recorded confronting individuals over regional voting patterns, stating: “Record me if you like, we will invoke our Lagos deities to chase you Igbo people out of Lagos. We will inherit all you Igbos in Lagos.”

ABUJA — President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has initiated a comprehensive tactical review ahead of the 2027 general elections, weighing a sweeping overhaul of his campaign machinery and a restructuring of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) high command to lock in a second-term victory.


The frantic re-strategizing follows classified internal polling from multiple highly respected firms showing that the President faces a devastating defeat in any free, fair, and transparent contest. According to these private assessments, opposition leader Peter Obi commands a clear lead, followed by Atiku Abubakar in a distant second, with Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde and former Cross River State Governor Donald Duke trailing.

Facing an insurmountable popularity deficit, the Tinubu kitchen cabinet is currently engineering a survival blueprint that relies heavily on institutional capture. This strategy is not new; it is the modern refinement of an authoritarian playbook pioneered during the Olusegun Obasanjo era and perfected by Tinubu himself during his decades-long stranglehold on Lagos State.

The assault, which targeted the 162 Battalion along the Mandara–Buratai Road during a heavy downpour, serves as a grim indictment of the top military brass and the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Despite persistent official claims that the insurgency has been “largely defeated,” frontline troops continue to pay the ultimate price—sacrificed to a war machine hobbled by institutional graft and tactical negligence.

Tinubu’s Empty Rhetoric and the Failures of the High Command

For a presidency that promised “renewed hope,” the recurrent slaughter of security personnel has instead delivered a grim status quo of endless mourning. Following the Borno base infiltration, the Tinubu administration offered its standard template of condemnation, investigation orders, and posthumous praise. Yet, these symbolic responses do nothing to conceal the tactical stagnation of the Service Chiefs and the High Command.

However, across the streets of Nigeria’s major cities, the official celebratory mood stands in stark contrast to a grim, lived reality. For millions of citizens, the past 36 months have been defined by historic inflation, an unprecedented debt burden, unchecked insecurity, and what critics describe as a profound official insensitivity toward the daily agony of the populace.

Rather than offering an apology or a empathetic recalibration of its policies, the administration’s third-anniversary rhetoric continues to demand patience, further widening the gap between state propaganda and the severe cost-of-living crisis on the ground.

He alleged that rogue police operatives, working hand-in-glove with the political enforcers of Governor Hope Uzodimma, are running a private torture ring to fabricate evidence against opposition figures.
