The Osun Police Command has warned commercial motorcyclists to be cautious of criminals posing as passengers to steal their motorcycles. Yemisi Opalola, the command’s spokesperson explains the warning was needed due to the increase of motorcycle cases and to ensure the safety of the state and citizens.

“The police command is using this medium to caution motorcyclists, especially the commercial ones (Okada), to be cautious of passenger(s) they carry or who employ their services.

The modus operandi of the criminals involves hailing commercial motorcyclists and luring them to isolated areas late at night where they are forcefully dispossessed of their motorbikes.

”The unsuspecting riders are often offered enticing fares that they cannot refuse.

“These attacks in some cases have left the motorcyclists severely injured or even killed.” she said.

“The command also advises them to report any suspicious passenger(s) and their activities to the nearest police station.” she added.

“How Can We Support the Killing of Our Own People?” – Wike Fires Back at Genocide Allegations

Published

on


Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, spoke on Donald Trump’s threat to Nigeria regarding taking care of the Christian genocide.

The minister appeared as a guest on a TV program and spoke on the current situation, stating that politics has been taken too far.

The minister questioned the claims made, saying “It is an indictment that a government I am serving, anybody will allege that that government is supporting genocide, killing of Christians and I am still in that government.

This is politics taken too far. The Inspector General of Police is a Christian, the Director General of the Department of State Services is a Christian, the Chief of Defence (Staff) is a Christian.

Tell me how any right-thinking person will think that we will sit in a government and support the killing of our own people?”
