Yobe Police Arrest 18 for Violent Protests and Vandalism
The Yobe Police Command has arrested 18 individuals linked to the violent protests and vandalism that erupted on Thursday in Nguru, Potiskum, and Gashua. Police Spokesman DSP Dungus Abdulkarim reported that these suspects, who disguised their actions as peaceful protests, were involved in burning public buildings and looting food and empowerment equipment. The arrested individuals will face charges once the investigation concludes.
Commissioner of Police Garba Ahmed had previously warned against the destruction of government property. Abdulkarim emphasized that while peaceful assembly is a right, it must not infringe on others’ rights. The police are enforcing a dusk-to-dawn curfew to maintain order and are committed to combating any criminal activities. He urged local communities to assist the police in preventing further violence and maintaining law and order.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
