It’s unfortunate. The first point of resistance against the armed robbers should have been the police which is controlled by the Nigerian Federal Government. The police failed us again. Amotekun is a very good initiative. Kudos to the initiators. Amotekun in Ekiti and South West have carried out many successful operations in the past at great risks. They have arrested criminals and even terrorists hideouts they have raided and made arrests. I can’t imagine the South West without Amotekun. Amotekun response to Ikere robbery must have been informed by police failure to promptly addtess distress calls. May God bless the…

If you keep promising something, then people expect that you may actually care about it, and even carry out the promise. With the ongoing chaos in both lawful and illegal immigration in the UK, we are left asking the question: does anyone really care at the Home Office or in the Conservative government? So chaotic is the situation that the Government has split the role of immigration minister into two ministers, one for legal and another for illegal immigration. Let’s examine the lawful situation first. In four separate general elections the Tory party promised to bring down legal immigration numbers. Yet post…
European police have foiled a major Hamas plot to attack Jewish sites across the continent, with seven suspected members of the terror group arrested in raids in Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands. The Hamas operatives were told to bring a cache of weapons, buried at an undisclosed location in Europe, to Berlin to attack Jewish institutions, German prosecutors said. Three men arrested in Berlin, and another in the Netherlands, were preparing a weapons cache that would be “kept in a state of readiness in view of potential terrorist attacks”, they said. Danish authorities confirmed the arrest of three people on…

The court ruled on Thursday, December 14, 2023, that it lacked jurisdiction to grant his request.

Jamal Ezebuike’s arrest was arrested after a carefully orchestrated deception. He managed to engage in romantic relationships with four female police officers simultaneously, and these relationships remained concealed until one of the officers discovered the truth.

However, the specific charges against him and the potential legal ramifications are not fully disclosed in the available search results, leaving some details unclear. Prior to his arrest, Jamal Ezebuike was a Nigerian student studying women’s security at a university in New Jersey, USA.…
ROSSLARE HARBOUR, Ireland (Reuters) – On a poster placed near three hotels filled with asylum seekers and Ukrainian refugees, the residents of the small Irish town of Rosslare Harbour have a blunt message for the government: “Enough is Enough”. Their peaceful, carefully calibrated campaign against using a fourth hotel to house hundreds more asylum seekers could not be more different from that of the anti-immigrant activists who helped incite a riot in Dublin in late November. But both underline an uncomfortable truth for the Irish establishment: immigration is now firmly on the political agenda and for the first time is…
