EndSARS: We’re fighting for a better Nigeria, including you – Tacha tells police.

Reality Tv star, Tacha has urged Nigeria Police to stop brutalizing citizens.

Tacha made this known in a video via Instagram account on Friday.

She urged the police to stop the maltreatment meted out on Nigerians, adding that the masses were suffering together.

“ASUU doesn’t go on strike and exempt children who have police officers as their parents. Whatever it is they fight for, is for the sake of all Nigerian students

“The same applies to the things in the market. A policeman cannot get things cheaper in the market because he is an officer. We are all suffering from the high cost of things in the market.

“So, I don’t see why the Nigeria Police Force think that the youths of this country is their enemy.

“During the EndSARS movement last year, one of the demands we made was for the betterment of the police force. We are fighting for a better Nigeria which includes the police force and this constant brutality on youths is not called for,” she said.

2023: Atiku, Tambuwal have indicated interest in running for presidency – Gov Makinde.

Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has claimed that former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar and Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, have indicated interest in contesting in the 2023 presidential election.

There have been speculations in the past weeks over the candidates for the next general elections, especially with the issues raised around zoning.

Makinde, speaking during an interview on Channels Television on Thursday, boasted that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has “eminently qualified” personalities that can lead Nigeria.

He also said the only way PDP can be stopped, is if the party is divided internally.

“Once PDP governors are able to move in one direction, align on most of the issues and the challenges we are faced with, I think there is hope for this country.

“Our party has eminently qualified personalities that can lead this country successfully.

“Some have indicated interest like former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, like governor Tambuwal, like governor Bala Mohammed.

“The bottom line is when we get to that bridge, we will definitely cross it. What is important at this stage, which I will solicit the support of PDP members and the generality of Nigerians, is please support us to have a successful national convention.

“There is no way you can become anything — president, vice-president, even governor — if we don’t have a party. What we want to do first is ensure that we get things right within our party,” Makinde said.

When Makinde was asked if he thinks PDP will take over power from the APC in 2023, he replied: “Well, it is a question that I know Nigerians will answer and they will answer decisively.”

Olejeme, who was a former Chairman of the Board of the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF), is standing trial in an alleged N3 billion fraud charge brought against her by the Federal Government.

She was on Thursday October 21 arraigned before the judge during which she denied committing the alleged offences and was ordered to be remanded in EFCC custody pending her bail application.

Ruling on her bail application on Friday, the judge adopted the administrative bail conditions earlier set by the anti-graft agency to admit the defendant to the court bail.

The bail granted her by EFCC through two sureties who are Deputy Directors was ordered by the judge to be continued.

However, Justice Maryam Hassan Aliyu ordered that her traveling passport must be deposited with the Registrar.

The judge subsequently fixed November 8 for trial of the offences brought against her.

Olejeme was on Thursday October 21 arraigned on a nine-count charge in which she was accused of abusing her office, receiving bribes, awarding contracts without due process among others

Her lawyer, Chief Paul Erokoro (SAN), had applied for bail, which the prosecuting lawyer, Steve Odiase, did not oppose but insisted that she must be granted conditional bail, requiring that she presents a surety.

Police allegedly arrest APC’s social media handler in Zamfara.

Operatives of the Zamfara State Police Command’s Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU) have allegedly arrested one Mugira Yusuf, suspected to be a handler of social media handles of the All Progressives Congress (APC), at Anguwar Dallatu in Gusau, the state capital.

A source told DAILY POST that Mugira was at the shop of one of his friends, Sufiyanu Sani Gusau popularly known as Sufi, when somebody who came out of the Zamfara State Government House started making some suspicious phone calls.

The source explained that when Sufi noticed the suspicious way in which the Government House official was making calls, he observed that there was a problem and the owner of the shop allegedly advised Mugira to take his leave.

“Though Mugira insisted knowing why he had to leave, but his friend insisted he should leave, yet he refused to leave but after a heated argument, Mugira took a bike and left the shop,” he said.

According to him, later, Mugira returned, asking his friend to tell him the reason he was insisting that he leave the business center.

The source noted that while the argument between Mugira and the shop owner was still on, a Hilux van full of police operatives stopped in front of the shop and took Mugira to an unknown destination.

Some residents of Anguwar Dallatu, who witnessed the incident, said the man who masterminded the arrest of Mugira left instantly and drove to the state Government House.

DAILY POST gathered that Mugira Yusuf is a strong political supporter of the APC faction being led by former Governor Abdul Aziz Yari and has been a constant critic of the current government of Bello Mohammed Matawalle since 2019.

The command’s Spokesman, SP Shehu Mohammed, could not be reached for comment on the matter.

The group condemned the killing in a release signed by its President-General, Goodluck Ibem and Publicity Secretary, Okey Nworu.

It described the killings as gruesome, villainous, barbaric, senseless and condemnable and called for all hands to be on deck to stem the tide of insecurity in the Southeast geo-political zone.

It also called on youths of Njaba LGA to swing into action and gather intelligence that would lead to the arrest of the assailants.

It further urged governors in south-eastern states to give communities money from their security votes to youths and traditional rulers in various communities and urban areas to work on security challenges.

“It is so worrisome and shameful that our once peaceful land is now turning into a war zone where one cannot predict what will happen next.

“Now is the time to be our brothers’ keeper’ for communities in the zone to work in synergy on matters of security; all communities must rise and defend their territories against invaders and criminal elements,’’ it said.

The group prayed to God to console families and friends of the deceased as well as the entire state

IPOB: Group insists on fair hearing for Nnamdi Kanu.

As the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) resumes on October 21, the Greater Igbo Forum has called for a fair hearing in court.

The group demanded that he be produced in court and be given an opportunity to air his own views as is expected of a democratic setup.

Founder of Greater Igbo Forum, Obinna Chikelu Kingsman, who made the call also charged the government of the day to decisively deal with the raging problems of insecurity and also the economy in the interest of Nigerians.

He said the forum stands for all Nigerians as it is not an ethnic group, but for all Nigerians that have an affiliate with the Igbo race either by the mother, by the father, or by marriage or by adoption.

“Having said that, the pertinent issue concerning the Nigerian nation today is about the Nnamdi Kanu’s detention, I can say the first part of it is the equity and justice he deserves to be given a fair hearing in the competent court. As there’s a program tomorrow there’s no question of bringing him or not, he should be allowed to appear in court and then have the opportunity to air his own view and the state too will air their own view that is the right of every individual that is detained by the state, and that is the beauty of democracy and the Rule of Law.

“So my suggestion is to give Nnamdi Kanu a fair hearing, produce him first of all at the court tomorrow and hear him and at the same time look squarely on the way to go about the insecurity issues which a lot of things have come to play, unemployment is there, hunger is there and at the same time the feeling of not belonging that is beside, the Igbo’s are seeing it now.”

Kingsman also said the distribution of the national leadership structure is supposed to represent the Federal Character System.

This, he said, gives everybody a fair level ground where everybody can showcase their talent and strength. “I mean this is a simple thing that calls for justice and implementation and I know there are competent hands everywhere,” he said.

He said though there are competent people everywhere, the country has remained at a level where a section is neglected in terms of being given the opportunity to lead to avoid friction.

“The factors that divide us must be taken into cognisance when we’re looking for peace, that is in terms of ethnicity and religion, and at the same time the people especially the South Easterners, my brothers I plead to them, let us give peace a chance. You don’t get anything through violence, violence destroys but that is why the Greater Igbo Forum stands for dialogue. I believe when all heads are cool, we sit down together and we talk out issues and nobody will play arrogant when the truth is being said,” he said.

Hon. Levi Ezeorah, National President of Greater Igbo Forum also reechoed the call that Kanu be provided in the court and given a fair hearing, which he said would douse tension.

“No matter how you see him, he has followers, he has sympathizers and the issue is, what is this young man clamouring for? We’ve spoken of marginalization, without marginalization there could have been nothing like his struggle, there are people, no matter how you take it there are people that see him as a freedom fighter. What we need to ask is, is there marginalization? If there is, is there any against the Igbo people? If there is, like my forum believes in dialogue is it not necessary to approach the whole thing with dialogue? What is this young man clamouring for? Bring the stakeholders from that region to discuss that, I think that is what will now bring down the tempo and reduce the crisis.

“The continual detention of Nnamdi Kanu in the cell does not solve any problem, it does not, and the Federal Government will do the people good by providing Nnamdi Kanu in the court. A lot of people are receiving the heat and even the IPOB people have been infiltrated by people who are even using that to create a crisis and the moment Nnamdi Kanu is tried properly I think we will reduce the tension.

On his part, award-winning journalist, Mr Ben Okezie, said as far as Nnamdi Kanu is concerned, the government should embrace transparency in dealing with the IPOB question.

“The government should be open, they shouldn’t in anyway twist the arm of justice against him, they should allow justice to prevail and then, I also believe that the judge that is handling the case will be fair and will not in any way allow any government to dictate what they should do. But every eye is open, the world is watching, he’s a freedom fighter and a freedom fighter should not be subjected to the type of injustice that we’re perceiving that the government is trying to inflict on him.

“But nonetheless, I believe that the Federal Government of Nigeria will be fair in everything they’re doing with Nnamdi Kanu whether they’re going to bring him on that day depends on the information that the security agencies must have gotten, if they find out that the atmosphere or environment will not be very very clear for him, then I think they’ll not produce him. But if they find out that everywhere will be secured then I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t bring him to the court for ruling But this what one expects that they should be fair in everything they’re doing with Nnamdi Kalu, there shouldn’t be like using a sledgehammer to kill an ant,” he said.

#EndSARS: Panels’ recommendations should be incorporated into police training – ex-AIG.

A retired assistant inspector-general of police, Wilson Inalegwu, says the recommendations of the #EndSARS panels should be incorporated into police training.

Following the nationwide protests for the disbandment of the special anti-robbery squad (SARS), the national executive council (NEC) headed by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo in October 2020 asked states, including the federal capital territory (FCT) to establish judicial panels to investigate cases of police brutality and compensate victims.

Speaking on the conduct of the police at the #EndSARS memorial, Inalegwu said the recommendations of judicial panels should be incorporated into the training scheme of the police so as to give them a sense of direction.

He advised NEC to set up an inter-ministerial committee that will critically implement the recommendations into the training process of the Nigerian Police Force.

“Looking at the EndSARS report, and having the minister of police affairs, the minister of justice, the chairman of police service commission and IGP, critically, they can set up an inter-ministerial committee to look at the report,” he said.

“When you look at those factors, you will incorporate them in the training and you see to the implementation, using the AIGs of the zones.”

TOP THREE PLATFORMS TO TRADE YOUR CRYPTOCURRENCY IN GHANA

Local banks in Ghana have several problems like slow operations, lack of security, and small

profits. Ghanaians want to profit even from saving their money, but local banks provide little to

no profits, hence the need for an alternative way of saving and investing. The best alternative, as

we have come to know, is cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrency, also called "crypto", is an electronic currency that the government of any

country does not control. It is decentralized and doesn't require any intermediaries for its

operations. Cryptocurrency works by using a technology known as blockchain to connect several

computers and people worldwide by managing, regulating, and recording all transactions.

You can use cryptocurrency to buy goods services online and in real life through exchange

platforms on the internet. Owning crypto is like owning virtual cash as you cannot see it, and it

only exists online.

With cryptocurrency, all the barriers associated with physical cash and your local banks are

averted. For example, crypto uses powerful encryption technology to ensure that all transactions

are secured.

There are more than 10,000 different cryptocurrencies globally, with over 1000 being used in

Ghana today. The prices of these cryptocurrency increases and decreases over time due to the

supply of the coin, cost of producing the coin through the mining process, number of competing

cryptocurrencies, and the regulations governing its sales. Even with its unstable value,

cryptocurrency is still the best option for long term investment. For example, let's take bitcoin

and ethereum, which cost a dollar or less when first introduced into the market. Now, bitcoin and

ethereum cost over 50,000USD and 3000USD, respectively, which is over 100% profit.
