Following their release some 6 days later, our traumatized country was greatly relieved. A report by the Imo state police command claimed that the corpers were rescued by a combined team of security operatives. Bearing in mind that such rescue operations had reportedly happened recently, many people praised our gallant forces. But a few days later, media reports surfaced suggesting that the rescue story was not completely reliable. In fact, within 2 days of the first report, a concerned parent disclosed that their family paid a ransom of six million naira (N6, 000, 000) for the release of their son by the abductors. If a public institution issues a categorical statement that is controverted by an individual who should the public believe?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ordinarily, an official statement by a public authority especially the one under whose mandate the subject falls ought to be taken more seriously, but in Nigeria and indeed, in most emerging societies, history tells us that people have scanty faith in public bodies. In other words, if a poll were to be conducted on the subject, not many would support the official version. Even those who may decide not to formally respond to the poll would use sign language to indicate lack of faith in government.  It is difficult to blame such people because the prevailing culture in which public authorities take delight in misinformation has been virtually institutionalized. To start with, the colonial government from which Nigeria learnt the process of modern government was based on deceit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Till today, no one knows the language that was used to get indigenous leaders to sign agreements with colonial officers. The story of the amalgamation of Nigeria has gotten more ludicrous with the realization that Nnamdi Azikiwe and other early educated leaders were infants when the treaty was signed. During the military era, our people surprisingly found that our soldiers were as corrupt if not more than the civilian leaders they toppled on account of corruption. The civilian administrations that we have had over the years have unwittingly established that any truth in whatever a politician says is based on luck. Why should anyone trust government? In the case of security, trust for government would be essentially tenuous. For example, although the highest law of the land says the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government, people in authority have since changed it to mean that security is everybody business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the Buhari administration, General Bashir Magashi the then Minister of Defence stated openly that the reason insecurity had become unbearable was because Nigerians were too cowardly in their response to kidnappers and other criminals. He didn’t think it was because government had failed in the task of confronting criminals. Since then, what has become established is that the higher the amount of money budgeted for security, the greater the level of insecurity. In reality, criminality would drop if those whose primary duty it is, to deal with the problem become more responsible and sincere in handling every type of insecurity. But because many people in power have come to believe that the best way to handle insecurity is to deceive the public through misinformation, people are killed daily without consequences. All that follows is governance by condolences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This culture of everyone remaining silent when things go wrong had for long been extended to other spheres of life making it common place for no one to believe what is said. But in August 2026, a joint security operation reportedly freed as many as 308 Nigerians kidnapped in separate attacks across Kwara and Niger states. They were all said to have been found inside the Kainji Lake National Park Forest in New Bussa Local Government Area of Niger state. 163 of them had been taken from the Woro Community in Kaiama Local Government Area of Kwara State, while the remaining 145 were abducted from Niger state. The nation stood in applause of our gallant forces. Exactly one month earlier, Nigeria’s Armed Fores had announced the rescue of more than 40 kidnapped victims and the arrest of over 20 suspected terrorists, collaborators and other criminal elements in coordinated operations across the country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other reports of hope made by the Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Michael Onoja, disclosed that the military operations, conducted between July 10 and July 16, had led to the killing of several terrorists and the dismantling of criminal networks in different parts of the country. He also announced the rescue of a school principal, a National Examinations Council official and two students abducted during an attack on an examination centre in Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State. Most importantly, Onoja explained that sustained pressure from security forces compelled the kidnappers to abandon their victims. The General ended his report with what he called the intelligence-driven collaboration among security agencies, that led to the now famous rescue of 44 pupils and teachers abducted in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State. The number rescued, the location and methodology were all explained thereby giving credence to the reports.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As detailed as these reports on the rescue of abductees in different parts of the country looks like, there are cynics who doubt the veracity of the stories. If so, how does anyone expect Nigerians to believe the story of the rescue of 20 members of the NYSC in Imo state which has been instantly controverted? As far as the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) is concerned, there is need for the Federal Government and security agencies to explain how the 20 prospective National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members abducted in Imo State regained their freedom. HURIWA is of the opinion that Nigerians deserve to know whether the corps members were rescued by security forces or released following negotiations and payment of ransom. According to its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, whereas the safe return of the young Nigerians is a welcome development, the circumstances surrounding the release had raised questions that require clear answers from the authorities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The questions the group is asking include the following: a) were the 20 prospective corps members “actually rescued by the security forces, or were they released after the payment of ransom?” b) was any suspected kidnapper identified, arrested, captured or neutralised in connection with the abduction? c) was there any negotiation with the abductors and if so by whom? HURIWA is bothered by the possibility of government presenting one narrative to Nigerians while concealing material facts about how citizens were actually freed, stressing that it is curious for a rescue operation to end with the victims returning safely while the perpetrators are left completely untouched. Nigerians according to HURIWA “are not asking for operational secrets. They are asking for the truth.” Telling the people the basic truth is at the heart of good governance. Once people have cause to suspect that some truths are concealed by government, every official statement faces the test of trustworthiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are analysts who are not likely to believe the aspect that said the rescued victims were immediately taken to the Department of State Services (DSS) facility in Owerri, for medical attention. Why were they not taken to public facilities like the Federal Medical Centre? One report also said that the NYSC Director-General, Brigadier General Olakunle Oluseye Nafiu, was also at the DSS clinic in Owerri to address the rescued victims. What did he tell them? In addition, the NYSC-DG was said to be in the company of the Imo State Commissioner of Police, the Director DSS and Brigade Commander, 34 Artillery Brigade, Obinze, Imo State, but none of them said anything.  It was only the Imo state governor, Hope Uzodimma that was humane enough to react to the rescue. Could it be because the kidnap happened in his territory?  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement personally signed by him, Uzodimma praised the security agencies for a job well done while also acknowledging the collaboration between the Oyo and Imo State governments in securing the release of the victims. Interestingly, Governor Seyi Makinde, the governor of the state of origin of the abductees said nothing. For a politician seeking to contest the forthcoming presidential election, Makinde’s silence is uncommon. Well, if the publicity was not good enough perhaps, we should, as usual blame the media. This is because in Nigeria, those in government do not trust our media professionals and although the constitution mandates the media to make government accountable to the people, our powerful leaders usually harass journalists who criticize government.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>By Adeola Badru\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yoruba nation agitator and founder of Iru Ekun Security Network, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has called for a stronger national alliance between community-based security outfits and conventional security agencies to combat kidnapping, banditry and other violent crimes threatening communities across Nigeria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Igboho said closer cooperation among security stakeholders was essential to protecting lives and property, sharing intelligence and strengthening efforts to tackle criminal activities, particularly in the South-West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He made the call while commending the Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, and other heads of security agencies for their support for Iru Ekun, which he said had contributed to the network’s reported efforts to address abduction, banditry and farmer-herder clashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The call was contained in a statement issued by his media office on Saturday following a strategic meeting between the Commissioner of Police in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Ahmed Muhammed Sanusi, and the FCT coordinator of Iru Ekun, Segun Olufadeju, popularly known as Aluwaye, and members of his team in Abuja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the statement, the engagement was aimed at strengthening cooperation between the police and the security network in tackling criminality and promoting public safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“The meeting with FCT CP, Ahmed Muhammed Sanusi, is part of our commitment to work with the Police and also show gratitude for their major support, which had been responsible for the success we have recorded in reducing rampant cases of abduction, banditry and farmers-herders clashes,” Igboho was quoted as saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added: “We are always ready to partner relevant stakeholders in the security sector in further driving peace, protecting communities against hoodlums and other criminals posing threat to our people, most especially law-abiding Nigerians in the South-West.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Igboho also acknowledged the support of the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd); the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; the Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu; the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi; and other heads of security agencies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“The Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd), National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, IGP Tunji Disu, the Director-General of the DSS, Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi, and other heads of security agencies have all been supportive and instrumental to our operational achievements.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“We will continue to leverage on this healthy collaboration for the overall interest of Nigeria,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the meeting, Sanusi urged Iru Ekun to sustain effective working relationships with the police, the Nigerian Armed Forces, the DSS and other paramilitary agencies, describing inter-agency cooperation as critical to community policing and the effectiveness of local security initiatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The FCT police commissioner also stressed that the network should notify relevant security agencies, particularly divisional police authorities within its areas of operation, before undertaking security activities requiring operational action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said such coordination was necessary to improve crime prevention and detection and ensure that community-based security initiatives worked in collaboration with established security institutions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Responding, Olufadeju pledged that the network would consistently inform and engage the police in the FCT about its activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>By Kingsley Omonobi\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Intelligence Response Team (IRT) of the Nigeria Police Force has foiled an alleged plot to kidnap a prophetess and assistant Pastor in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, and arrested four suspects with a locally fabricated firearm and a vehicle allegedly acquired for the operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parading the suspects as part of recent operations targeting kidnapping, armed robbery and other violent crimes in the nation’s Federal Capital Territory, Commander of IRT, DCP Adamu Muazu noted that the alleged plot was particularly disturbing because some of the suspects were members of the same church with the intended victim, identified as Prophetess Elizabeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Muazu said the Prophetess Elizabeth had reportedly given testimony in church about her personal achievements and business success, after which some members of the congregation allegedly began planning her abduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He disclosed that one of the suspects, David Obaje, was said to have worked as Elizabeth’s driver for about three months and had been a member of the church for approximately four years, giving him knowledge of her movements and routines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DCP Muazu added that another suspect, David Dennis, reportedly belonged to the church for about six years and worked as a bodyguard to the senior pastor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commander said Police investigators alleged that the suspects used a WhatsApp group to coordinate the planned kidnapping and had also arranged for another person to be brought from Kogi State to participate in the operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that the suspects planned to attack Elizabeth after an evening church service on October 1 by using a vehicle to block or deliberately hit her car, creating the appearance of a road accident and forcing her to stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“She would then allegedly be overpowered and taken to a predetermined location where she was expected to be held”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IRT boss further explained that the investigation led to the recovery of the vehicle allegedly acquired for the operation, as well as a firearm reportedly procured for the planned abduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Revealing that the suspects claimed the weapon was purchased from a vigilante group for N120,000, the IRT Commander described the recovered weapon as a locally fabricated AK-47.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said Investigators also recovered a security uniform allegedly obtained as part of preparations for the operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commander, however, disclosed that the planned abduction was disrupted after the IRT received intelligence about the alleged conspiracy and arrested the suspects before the operation could be carried out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DCP Muazu warned members of the public against disclosing sensitive personal information, particularly details about their finances, businesses, properties, movements and personal achievements in public gatherings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He urged churches to strengthen security around their premises, especially during evening services, through adequate lighting, controlled access and proper monitoring of people and vehicles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DCP Muazu assured Nigerians that the IRT would continue to deploy intelligence-led operations to disrupt criminal networks and prevent planned attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca
