Police Heightens Alert Levels in Response to an Upcoming Cultism Day Celebration.
The Ekiti State Police Command has issued a ban on unlawful gatherings following reports of a planned celebration by a specific cult group.
According to a statement by Commissioner of Police Akinwale Adeniran, the command emphasized a zero-tolerance policy towards criminal activities within the state.
“It has come to the notice of the Command that a group of criminally-minded individuals, particularly cultists who are members of a particular confraternity, have concluded plans to celebrate cultism on July 7, a day popularly known as 7/7. Information at our disposal indicates that on that day, new members will be inducted, covenants will be renewed, and supremacy battles will occur, usually characterized by violence and bloodshed.
The Command however warns members of secret cults and other criminal organisations in the state to end such illegal and unhealthy celebrations or any actions that could cause unnecessary apprehension or affect the peaceful atmosphere currently being enjoyed in the state.
“The CP has directed all the Area Commanders, Heads of Intelligence and Tactical Units, and the DPOs to be on alert, deploy adequate operatives across their jurisdictions, especially in all identified black spots, and ensure the arrest and prosecution of anyone who undermines this directive as the peace and security of the state can never be traded for any frivolous personal gain.
“Furthermore, the command bans any form of gathering or celebration in all hotels, bars, event or recreation centres, and similar venues across the state on the 7th of July, 2024, except those authorized by the state government or the police authority.”
Parents and guardians are urged to caution their children to obey the law and avoid actions that could lead to disorderly gatherings or assemblies before, during, and after the specified date. The Command, working closely with other security agencies, is prepared to take firm action against any misconduct.
Nigerian politician Peter Obi speaks on the increase in the cost of living in Nigeria and shared how more Nigerians are now hungry and the hunger crisis is increasing in the country.
He stated, “Despite three years of Tinubu’s food emergency, Nigeria’s hunger ranking index declined to among the worst nations globally.”
“Yet the outcome of this has been the opposite. Nigeria’s hunger index has worsened significantly. Nigeria’s hunger index ranking was 103rd out of 123 countries surveyed in 2022/2023, and this figure has since worsened to 115th out of 123 countries surveyed in 2025/2026.”
The U.S. government has released a warning to social media influencers who will be coming to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The government placed a rule on creating content to make money while using a tourist visa and stated that it could lead to deportation back to their country.
It can be noted that the World Cup will be hosted in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
“People who enter the United States under a visitor program and receive income from a U.S. source would be violating the conditions of their admission status.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
