Abba Kyari's gang forced me to accept being a kidnapper –Evans

Suspected kidnap kingpin, Chukwudimeme Onwuamadike, alias Evans, on Friday denied kidnapping a businessman, Sylvanus Ahamonu, and collecting a $420,000 ransom from his family.

Standing trial alongside ex-soldier Victor Aduba on a four-count charge of kidnapping and unlawful possession of firearms, Evans said he was tortured and forced by dismissed police officer, Abba Kyari, and “his boys” to admit to being a kidnapper.

Explaining why he was seen in a jovial mood in the confessional video played in the court when prosecution presented its case, Evans said he was forced to act in that manner by the police.

The Nigerian military has killed many fighters of the Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā'at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da'wah wa'l-Jihād with airstrikes from A-29 Super Tucano along the fringes of Lake Chad in Borno State.

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) component of Operation Hadin Kai launched a series of attacks on Wednesday and Thursday at ISWAP camps at Marte Local Government Area of the state.

The operation was conducted after Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, revealed the location of the terror kingpin.

The ground assessment from the spots of the air interdiction indicated that scores of the terrorists were killed in the process.

Lagos State Police Personnel's Spreading Bullet Across The Lekki toll Gate Now:Membis247Blog

Four protesters were detained by members of the Lagos State Police Command on Thursday at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos. The young people had gathered at the Lekki tollgate to commemorate the second national #EndSARS protest memorial. Youths from all around the nation protested in the streets in October 2020 to call for an end to extrajudicial killings by the defunct elite anti-robbery squad and police abuse (SARS). The tollgate was the epicentre of the protests. Youths who gathered day and night at the tollgate were dispersed from the location by gun-wielding soldiers on October 20, 2020, an action which led to the loss of lives. Meanwhile, the security operatives also assaulted journalists covering the event. One of the protesters who spoke to SaharaReporters said, “The police have arrested four people despite the fact that everything is being done peacefully here. They are using tear gas and hot water to disperse peaceful protesters. Journalists were also assaulted,” he said.
