Nigeria police force under the
0:02
leadership of IGP Car Yodken has kept
0:05
months since reports indicated that the
0:07
US trained private intelligent officer
0:10
Harrison Guamu who was invited to
0:12
facilitate the rescue of a married
0:14
couple husband and wife simply
0:17
identified as Mr. and Mrs. Ibrahim that
0:19
was kidnapped since late November at
0:21
their home in Aili community, a village
0:24
near Achi Polytenic in the Etsico west
0:27
local government area of Edeto state has
0:30
been arrested and remanded to prison by
0:32
a court sitting in Benin City, the Edeto
0:35
state capital over allegations that the
0:37
private intelligent officer Harrison
0:40
Guamu underpaid the ransom money given
0:42
to him to give to the kidnappers to
0:44
rescue the married couple in captivity.
0:46
The reports of Harrison Guamishu's
0:48
arrest and subsequent remand to prison
0:50
custody became widespread after a
0:52
popular Nigeria social media activist
0:55
Vincent Martin's oce in a video
0:57
statement on Friday morning alleged that
1:00
he has facilitated the arrest of the
1:02
private intelligent officer Harrison
1:04
Guamnishu for allegedly removing 5.4
1:07
million naira from the total amount
1:09
given to him by the victim's family to
1:12
help pay as ransom to the kidnappers.
1:14
This occurred after the sting operations
1:17
Guamnosu had prepared the ransom money
1:20
for was probably aborted after a man
1:22
whose real names may be Oshio Rema job
1:26
Ace G leaked revealed and exposed the
1:28
plan sensitive security information
1:30
online. According to the suspect who
1:32
leaked out the sensitive security
1:34
operational plans of Guamu, Harrison
1:37
Guamu never told the family he was going
1:40
to remove some money from the ransom
1:42
that the kidnappers said the money was
1:44
not complete, hence only the wife was
1:46
released. The man still held in
1:48
captivity due to the incomplete ransom
1:50
payment. The suspect Oshhio job Ace G in
1:54
a video recorded statement stated that
1:56
he was the one that helped facilitate
1:58
the service of Harrison Guamnau when the
2:00
family of the kidnapped victims
2:02
requested for it. The action of the
2:04
suspect may have prompted Harrison
2:06
Guamnau to abort the sting operations.
2:09
Obviously, for the safety of his
2:11
personal life and the lives of Nigeria
2:14
soldiers and other security operatives,
2:16
he does use to execute and complete his
2:18
sting operations against kidnappers,
2:21
which often leads to the killing of the
2:23
kidnappers and recovering of the total
2:25
ransom paid. For the purpose of clarity,
2:27
sting operations is a deceptive practice
2:30
and undercover tactics used by
2:32
journalist or intelligent officer or
2:34
security operative to get closer to a
2:37
suspected criminal or criminals in order
2:39
to be more familiar with the criminals
2:41
and the environment they operate. And
2:43
the deceptive practice may include the
2:45
journalist or intelligent officer or
2:47
security operative pretending to give
2:49
ransom money to kidnappers in a manner
2:52
that can cause a delay and proper
2:53
assessment of the environment before the
2:56
security troops may launch offensive
2:58
attack against the criminals. The action
3:00
of ACE of leaking out sensitive security
3:03
information may be of interest. Why
3:05
Nigeria soldiers and other security
3:07
operatives are being killed in large
3:09
numbers whenever in previous and recent
3:12
years the Nigeria security troops are on
3:14
rescue missions including the recent
3:16
mass killing of soldiers along with
3:18
brigadier General Uber Musa and civilian
3:21
JTF members at Wajerro village in Boro
3:24
state by criminals. We are convinced
3:26
that if Mr. Ace G and the family of the
3:29
kidnapped victim. Nigeria's prominent
3:31
music icon, Innocent Idia aka Twoface
3:34
Idibia, has cried out for help after
3:37
domestic violence he had with his new
3:39
wife Natasha during social media live
3:42
stream organized by Daddy Freeze on
3:44
Monday over allegations and video
3:47
evidence that surfaced online showing
3:49
Twoface Idibia being arrested with the
3:52
two of his hands handcuffed at the back
3:54
in London due to altercations he had
3:57
with his new wife Natasha. The act of
3:59
domestic violence between the African
4:01
queen music kuna and his new wife has
4:04
drawn the attention of the Edeto state
4:06
house of assembly and the house of
4:08
assembly on Tuesday summoned the wife.
4:10
Natasha who is also a member of
4:12
parliament in the Edo state house of
4:15
assembly to appear before its
4:16
disciplinary committee on ethics over
4:19
what the state assembly described as a
4:21
behavior capable of embarrassing the
4:23
house. It may be recalled that at the
4:25
beginning of the year, Twofaceibia
4:27
announced his breakup with Annie
4:29
McCauley in January 2025 and presented
4:33
Natasha as new wife to be soon Twoface
4:36
younger brother. Charles Idibia came
4:39
online and said his elder brother. Two
4:41
barber has moved from frying pan to
4:44
burning furnace expressing deep
4:46
displeasure over the choice of honorable
4:48
Natasha as a wife. Two-faced Idia in an
4:51
Instagram story a few hours ago made a
4:54
simple post with a write up. Help me. He
4:57
did not state what he wants people to
5:00
help him with or give a clearer picture
5:01
of whatever he needed help for. Many
5:04
people in the society included suggested
5:06
the needed help may not be unconnected
5:08
with marital issues he's probably having
5:11
with his new wife Natasha. But in a
5:14
video later today, he said this is
5:17
getting out of hand. It's a very
5:19
dangerous situation. I understand what
5:22
fans can do, but I am perfectly okay.
5:25
This is putting Natasha at risk. Please,
5:27
I need everybody to calm down and
5:31
We're going to resolve all these issues.
5:34
People day get issues for House Nobi
5:36
today. Please, friends, family,
5:39
everybody ceasefire, please. I am
5:41
perfectly fine. I didn't post that post.
5:44
The Nigerian music icon Two-Face Idibia
5:48
addressed growing concerns after a
5:49
troubling post circulated online
5:51
suggesting he was in distress and
5:53
calling for help. The Edo State House of
5:56
Assembly on Tuesday summoned the wife
5:58
and the lawmaker representing Iiggore
6:00
constituency Natasha E. Robosa to
6:03
explain what members describe as
6:05
behavior capable of embarrassing the
6:07
house after videos of the legislator who
6:10
is married to music star innocent two
6:12
barber Idia kept spreading online.
6:16
According to the speaker blessing
6:18
Abbeeku the lawmaker must appear before
6:21
the house committee on ethics and
6:22
privileges within one week to respond to
6:24
the allegation of misconduct linked to
6:27
her recent actions. Abbeaku said
6:30
honorable Natasha E. Robosa has been
6:33
summoned to appear before the ethics and
6:34
privilege committee of the assembly due
6:36
to her recent conduct which has been
6:38
trending online. This conduct drags the
6:42
name of the house into the mud and it is
6:44
the responsibility of the members of the
6:46
assembly to conduct themselves well.
6:48
This house has cable minds educated
6:51
people who had been dragged in the mud
6:53
for too long by our colleague honorable
6:55
Natasha. She has been trending on social
6:58
media and television. Presidency under
7:01
the command and control of president
7:03
Bola Ahmed Tonubu has said that if the
7:05
ex-president of Nigeria Elusigan Oasis
7:08
wished to help in addressing apparent
7:10
worsening security situations in the
7:12
West Africa country, Obisanjo must first
7:15
acknowledge the past failures that
7:17
allowed terrorists to gain a foothold
7:20
and then support ongoing efforts, not
7:22
undermine them. The presidency through
7:24
the office of the special adviser to the
7:26
president on media and communications.
7:28
Sunday Dar stated this few days ago in
7:31
reactions to the statement of Oasis that
7:34
Nigerians have rights to call on
7:36
international communities intervention
7:38
if the government can no longer protect
7:40
them. Stating that the terrorists also
7:43
kill people of other religions should
7:45
not be an excuse. This Aubberanjo said
7:48
while he was speaking at a Christmas
7:50
carol event in Joss plateau state after
7:53
President Donald Trump of the United
7:55
States US had raised alarm of what the
7:57
US president described as Christians
8:00
genocide in Nigeria and threatened to
8:02
send US troops to Nigeria if the killing
8:05
of Christians continued by the suspected
8:07
Islamic terrorists. A presidential
8:09
statement that has seen spike in the
8:11
activities of kidnapping and killings in
8:14
Nigeria and thus creating more attention
8:16
to the apparent unsafe nature of the
8:19
country which included the abduction of
8:21
25 school girls from government girls
8:24
comprehensive secondary school MAGA Kebi
8:27
the kidnapping of 38 worshippers in Eku
8:30
quara and the mass abduction of over 300
8:33
students and teachers still in captivity
8:35
at a Catholic school in Niger state with
8:38
Daily wave of coordinated attacks across
8:41
the northern and southern parts of the
8:42
country wherein the bandits often
8:44
suspected to be fani herdsmen have
8:47
abducted moniks worshippers a bride
8:50
married couples students and travelers
8:52
taking at least 600 people as captives
8:55
within 14 days and the rising unsafe
8:58
nature of things could have made the
9:00
Nigeria's defense minister Al-Haji
9:02
Muhammad Bedaru Abu Bakar to attend a
9:05
resignation letter on Monday while the
9:07
immediate past chief of defense staff.
9:09
General Christopher Musa has since been
9:11
appointed as the new defense minister
9:13
and the Senate has scheduled today,
9:15
Wednesday, for his screening in line
9:17
with the law and constitutional
9:19
procedures of the Africa country.
9:21
According to Aubanjo, no matter what
9:24
religion you belong to, no matter where
9:26
you come from, no matter what
9:28
profession, we Nigerians are being
9:30
killed and our governments seem to be
9:33
incapable of protecting us. We are part
9:36
of the world community. If our
9:38
government cannot do it, we have right
9:40
to call on the international community
9:42
to do for us what our government cannot
9:44
do for us. And for anybody to say
9:47
because those who are being killed
9:48
belong to this region, belong to this
9:50
religion, belong to this tribe and then
9:53
others too are being killed cannot be an
9:55
acceptable excuse. Before I left
9:58
government, I know we had capacity to
10:00
pick up anybody in Nigeria who commits
10:02
crime anywhere. The capacity that we
10:05
didn't have then is after we have
10:07
identified and located such a criminal.
10:09
We have no capacity to be able to pick
10:12
him up without moving on land or by air.
10:15
Now we have capacity with drones. You
10:18
can take him up. Why are we not doing
10:20
that? Why are we apologizing? Why are we
10:23
negotiating? In a statement on Sunday,
10:26
Dar warned that Oasis comments risk
10:28
distorting the security. to welcome
10:31
bringing you the news in a more digital
