1
00:00:00,080 –> 00:00:03,399
Speaker 1: Peter Obi, the former a Nambro State governor and last

2
00:00:03,439 –> 00:00:07,080
presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the Nigeria twenty

3
00:00:07,160 –> 00:00:10,720
twenty three general elections, has insisted that the three brothers

4
00:00:10,759 –> 00:00:13,560
among the twelve persons that died as a result of

5
00:00:13,640 –> 00:00:16,879
fire that engulfed the twenty five story building of Great

6
00:00:17,039 –> 00:00:21,399
Nigeria Insurance House Plaza at Balagoon Market in Lagos Island

7
00:00:21,440 –> 00:00:24,519
on Christmas Eve, called for help for days with no

8
00:00:24,640 –> 00:00:28,719
emergency response from the government under the leadership of President

9
00:00:28,800 –> 00:00:33,439
Bola Ahmed Tenubu, saying the three siblings mister stephen On

10
00:00:33,560 –> 00:00:38,000
Yekoomer two aged forty, Mister Kasmir Nabukomer two aged thirty

11
00:00:38,079 –> 00:00:42,200
nine and mister Collins Kenechukuoma two aged thirty seven, for

12
00:00:42,359 –> 00:00:46,280
days sent distressing police for help while trapped in the building,

13
00:00:46,799 –> 00:00:50,320
yet there were no emergency services to rescue them. Several

14
00:00:50,399 –> 00:00:54,000
days passed in the rubble before their bodies were finally recovered,

15
00:00:54,359 –> 00:00:57,799
Several days of unanswered calls of a system that failed

16
00:00:57,840 –> 00:01:00,880
them at the moment they needed it most. Peter Obi

17
00:01:00,960 –> 00:01:04,359
made this statement after attending the burial ceremony of the

18
00:01:04,400 –> 00:01:09,040
three siblings held at Uzoqua community in Ihiala Local Government

19
00:01:09,120 –> 00:01:13,280
Area of Anambra State on Wednesday, after Lagos State Government,

20
00:01:13,359 –> 00:01:16,640
through the Office of the Commissioner for Information and Strategy,

21
00:01:16,959 –> 00:01:21,079
Glengor Omtoso, in a statement issued on January one, twenty

22
00:01:21,200 –> 00:01:24,319
twenty six, stated that as soon as the fire alarm

23
00:01:24,480 –> 00:01:27,560
was received on the day, the government deployed teams of

24
00:01:27,640 –> 00:01:31,200
first responders to the scene, including the Lagos State Fire

25
00:01:31,280 –> 00:01:36,400
and Rescue Service, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, Legos State

26
00:01:36,439 –> 00:01:41,319
Ambulance Services, security agencies and other emergency and safety units.

27
00:01:41,599 –> 00:01:45,079
But this statement from the Lagos State government appears not

28
00:01:45,159 –> 00:01:48,200
to be in line with an eyewitness account. A resident

29
00:01:48,239 –> 00:01:51,120
who spoke with News Central Television at the scene of

30
00:01:51,159 –> 00:01:54,159
the fire incident that a phone call was made across

31
00:01:54,159 –> 00:01:57,239
to a fire service in Lagos State, but the fire

32
00:01:57,319 –> 00:02:01,239
service demanded thirty million nairas service fee before the fire

33
00:02:01,400 –> 00:02:05,439
service would respond to the emergency issue this. The resident

34
00:02:05,519 –> 00:02:08,319
added that if the fire service had responded on time,

35
00:02:08,719 –> 00:02:11,639
the entire building would have been saved, probably with no

36
00:02:11,800 –> 00:02:14,639
life lost because the fire was only at a single

37
00:02:14,759 –> 00:02:19,319
floor when the fire service was called. According to Punch newspaper,

38
00:02:19,680 –> 00:02:23,360
the three siblings died after being trapped inside the burning

39
00:02:23,439 –> 00:02:26,919
high rise building in Lagos, an incident that shocked residents

40
00:02:26,919 –> 00:02:30,919
and reignited concerns over fire safety and emergency response in

41
00:02:30,960 –> 00:02:35,280
the country. According to family sources, the intensity of the

42
00:02:35,319 –> 00:02:39,560
inferno made rescue efforts impossible, and only ashes were recovered

43
00:02:39,560 –> 00:02:44,080
for burial. The burial brought grief and sorrow to Ihiala community,

44
00:02:44,479 –> 00:02:47,599
with residents praying that their souls find rest and that

45
00:02:47,639 –> 00:02:51,080
their family find strength to pass through this trying time.

46
00:02:51,879 –> 00:02:55,319
After the burial, emotions ran high as the young wives

47
00:02:55,319 –> 00:03:00,439
of the deceased, family members, friends, schoolmates, and sympathy vies

48
00:03:00,439 –> 00:03:04,719
gathered to bid a painful farewell. Some attendees, dressed in

49
00:03:04,759 –> 00:03:08,280
black and carrying posters of the three siblings, wept openly,

50
00:03:08,680 –> 00:03:11,360
struggling to come to terms with the tragedy that sent

51
00:03:11,439 –> 00:03:15,599
shot waves across the community. Punch Online had reported on

52
00:03:15,719 –> 00:03:18,800
January seventh that the fire started on the fourth floor

53
00:03:18,840 –> 00:03:22,000
and spread to the sixth before engulfing the remaining floors

54
00:03:22,000 –> 00:03:26,840
and adjoining structures. A detached section of the plaza, estimated

55
00:03:26,879 –> 00:03:30,919
at about seven floors high, collapsed during the inferno, trapping

56
00:03:30,960 –> 00:03:34,919
some traders and market assistants. One of the families worst

57
00:03:34,960 –> 00:03:39,879
affected was the Omertu family, which lost three brothers, Steve forty,

58
00:03:40,120 –> 00:03:45,120
Casmir thirty nine and Collins thirty seven. The siblings were

59
00:03:45,120 –> 00:03:47,599
trapped in the building and are believed to have died

60
00:03:47,639 –> 00:03:52,719
in the fire. A surviving twin, Camillus Homertu, reportedly escaped

61
00:03:52,719 –> 00:03:56,039
the blaze. Peter Obe, in a statement published through his

62
00:03:56,199 –> 00:04:01,360
verified social media accounts, said, yesterday I attended a deeply

63
00:04:01,400 –> 00:04:05,719
emotional and heart breaking burial of three siblings, Stephen On

64
00:04:05,840 –> 00:04:10,479
Yeko Omertu, Cosmi and Ibukomtu and Collins Kennechukreu omer Tu,

65
00:04:10,840 –> 00:04:13,719
the three young brothers whose lives were cruelly cut short

66
00:04:13,759 –> 00:04:17,800
in the Great Nigeria Insurance Building fire in Lagos, Nigeria.

67
00:04:18,560 –> 00:04:21,959
It is almost impossible to describe the depth of this tragedy.

68
00:04:22,399 –> 00:04:25,800
For days, these young men sent distressing police for help

69
00:04:25,879 –> 00:04:28,720
while trapped in the building, yet there were no emergency

70
00:04:28,879 –> 00:04:32,800
services to rescue them. Several days passed in the rubble

71
00:04:32,839 –> 00:04:37,319
before their bodies were finally recovered. Several days of unanswered

72
00:04:37,399 –> 00:04:40,079
calls of a system that failed them at the moment

73
00:04:40,120 –> 00:04:43,560
they needed it most. This is not just a personal

74
00:04:43,600 –> 00:04:47,160
loss for their family, It is a national loss. This

75
00:04:47,240 –> 00:04:50,759
tragedy should serve as a reminder that our emergency services

76
00:04:50,839 –> 00:04:54,800
must be improved and accessible to every citizen. We cannot

77
00:04:54,800 –> 00:04:59,079
continue like this. Every life matters, and no Nigerian should

78
00:04:59,079 –> 00:05:01,560
ever have to endure such neglect or be left to

79
00:05:01,560 –> 00:05:04,360
perish in such a gruesome way while help could have

80
00:05:04,399 –> 00:05:08,519
been provided. I pray that the souls of Steve, Casmir

81
00:05:08,759 –> 00:05:12,040
and Collins find eternal rest and that God grants their

82
00:05:12,079 –> 00:05:16,360
family the courage, strength and comfort to bear this unimaginable grief.

83
00:05:17,160 –> 00:05:19,800
May we never forget them, and may we be moved

84
00:05:19,800 –> 00:05:23,639
to ensure such a tragedy never happens again. The Lagos

85
00:05:23,680 –> 00:05:28,199
State government, according to Punch newspaper publication on January second,

86
00:05:28,319 –> 00:05:31,839
twenty twenty six, has warned against the spread of speculation

87
00:05:31,959 –> 00:05:35,519
that may heighten public anxiety over the fire incident that

88
00:05:35,560 –> 00:05:39,600
occurred at the twenty five story Great Nigeria Insurance House

89
00:05:39,680 –> 00:05:44,759
on Martin Street, Lagos Island on Christmas Eve. The Commissioner

90
00:05:44,800 –> 00:05:49,199
for Information and Strategy, benger Omtoso said in a statement

91
00:05:49,279 –> 00:05:53,439
on Thursday, January first, twenty twenty six, that the government

92
00:05:53,519 –> 00:05:57,600
had taken note of some speculations and assertions concerning the incident.

93
00:05:58,319 –> 00:06:01,839
Omitoso conveyed the government sympathy to those who lost their

94
00:06:01,839 –> 00:06:05,279
loved ones in the incident, saying we feel their pain

95
00:06:05,360 –> 00:06:09,560
and understand their anxiety. He reiterated that as soon as

96
00:06:09,600 –> 00:06:12,680
the fire alarm was received on the day, the government

97
00:06:12,720 –> 00:06:16,120
deployed teams of first responders to the scene, including the

98
00:06:16,199 –> 00:06:21,199
Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency,

99
00:06:21,560 –> 00:06:26,519
Legos State Ambulance Services, security agencies, and other emergency and

100
00:06:26,600 –> 00:06:30,959
safety units. Omatoso said the teams had also remained on

101
00:06:31,040 –> 00:06:36,360
site conducting systematic search, rescue and safety operations in line

102
00:06:36,399 –> 00:06:41,319
with internationally accepted emergency response protocols. They will remain there

103
00:06:41,360 –> 00:06:44,959
and continue to work until the completion of recovery operations,

104
00:06:45,360 –> 00:06:49,560
supported by thorough and forensic assessments, he said. Giving an

105
00:06:49,639 –> 00:06:53,480
update on the incident, Omatoso said, as of this morning,

106
00:06:53,839 –> 00:06:56,959
the total number of victims is eight males, including a

107
00:06:57,000 –> 00:07:00,240
fireman rescued with varying degrees of injury and tail taken

108
00:07:00,319 –> 00:07:04,240
to the hospital. Three males and two females who sustained

109
00:07:04,279 –> 00:07:07,839
minor injuries were administered first aid and thereafter released at

110
00:07:07,839 –> 00:07:12,199
the scene. One adult female was extricated dead from the rubble,

111
00:07:12,600 –> 00:07:16,279
Two adult males were extricated and three persons were burnt.

112
00:07:17,000 –> 00:07:20,680
The government appealed to the public, affected families and all

113
00:07:20,720 –> 00:07:25,839
stakeholders to exercise patients restraint and sensitivity and to refrain

114
00:07:25,879 –> 00:07:29,480
from spreading speculation that could heighten public anxiety or under

115
00:07:29,519 –> 00:07:33,360
mine ongoing operations. In addition to the numbers of death,

116
00:07:33,639 –> 00:07:38,759
the National Emergency Management Agency of Nigeria NIMA, on January eleventh,

117
00:07:38,800 –> 00:07:42,399
twenty twenty six, said it recovered four more bird bodies

118
00:07:42,399 –> 00:07:46,600
from the scene of the fire incident. Accordingly, NIMA said

119
00:07:46,920 –> 00:07:51,959
the National Emergency Management Agency NIMA has facilitated the deployment

120
00:07:52,040 –> 00:07:56,079
of heavy duty equipment by the China Civil Engineering Construction

121
00:07:56,240 –> 00:08:01,600
Corporation CCEECC to support ongoing recovery operations at the site

122
00:08:01,600 –> 00:08:06,319
of the Great Nigeria Insurance Building on Martin Street, Lagos Island,

123
00:08:06,600 –> 00:08:09,279
which was gutted by fire on the twenty fourth of

124
00:08:09,319 –> 00:08:14,480
December twenty twenty five. The multi agency rescue and recovery

125
00:08:14,519 –> 00:08:18,519
operation remains complex due to the precarious structural condition of

126
00:08:18,519 –> 00:08:23,600
the twenty three story building. However, significant progress has been

127
00:08:23,639 –> 00:08:26,879
recorded with the controlled removal of debris in the recovery

128
00:08:26,879 –> 00:08:30,680
of four bodies from beneath the rubble. NIMA is providing

129
00:08:30,759 –> 00:08:34,279
technical and operational support to ensure safety at the site

130
00:08:34,320 –> 00:08:39,519
while facilitating the deployment of CCEECC equipment for controlled excavation

131
00:08:39,679 –> 00:08:44,360
and debris clearance. The excavation and debris removal operations are

132
00:08:44,399 –> 00:08:47,440
being carried out under the close supervision of the Lagos

133
00:08:47,480 –> 00:08:53,360
State Emergency Management Agency LEISMA, the Lagos Waste Management Authority NORMA,

134
00:08:53,559 –> 00:08:58,120
and other relevant response stakeholders. Four burned bodies were recovered

135
00:08:58,159 –> 00:09:01,679
from the rubble, properly documented and handed over to the

136
00:09:01,720 –> 00:09:06,399
Lagos State Environmental Health Monitoring Unit CHEMU for onward transfer

137
00:09:06,440 –> 00:09:11,720
for forensic identification and dignified handling. The incident perimeter remains

138
00:09:11,759 –> 00:09:16,759
fully secured by the military Police and other supporting security agencies,

139
00:09:17,039 –> 00:09:20,679
with barricades in place to restrict unauthorized access and ensure

140
00:09:20,720 –> 00:09:24,919
the safety of emergency personnel and the public. Meanwhile, a

141
00:09:24,960 –> 00:09:29,960
strategic coordination meeting was held involving NIMA, Lagos Operations Office

142
00:09:29,960 –> 00:09:34,320
and key stakeholders, including the Honorable Commissioner for Special Duties

143
00:09:34,360 –> 00:09:40,480
and Intergovernmental Relations Lagos State, Mister benger oyerand the Special

144
00:09:40,519 –> 00:09:44,759
Advisor to the Governor on RCGIS and Urban Development Drive

145
00:09:45,600 –> 00:09:48,360
on A g DA Babatunde, and the Chairman of the

146
00:09:48,399 –> 00:09:54,279
Community Development Association CDA. The meeting focused on detailed planning

147
00:09:54,320 –> 00:09:58,559
of ongoing operations, including a phased approach to safe excavation,

148
00:09:59,080 –> 00:10:05,399
structural INTEGRIS assessment, controlled demolition and eventual sight rehabilitation. All

149
00:10:05,440 –> 00:10:08,799
activities at the site remain under the authority of LEISMA

150
00:10:08,840 –> 00:10:12,399
and the Lagos State Government, with NIMA providing technical and

151
00:10:12,480 –> 00:10:17,840
operational support. Meanwhile, a Catholic priest, father d James, in

152
00:10:17,879 –> 00:10:21,519
a tweet on x social media platform on January sixth,

153
00:10:21,559 –> 00:10:25,200
twenty twenty six, talked about the Omertu family and stated

154
00:10:25,279 –> 00:10:28,519
in quotes that there were seven orphans in one family,

155
00:10:28,960 –> 00:10:32,559
two girls and five boys. One of them is a priest,

156
00:10:32,919 –> 00:10:36,320
father William Omatu. Three of their brothers were trapped in

157
00:10:36,360 –> 00:10:39,799
the Great Nigeria House Market fire on Lagos Island and

158
00:10:39,879 –> 00:10:43,200
died there on Christmas Eve, the twenty fourth of December

159
00:10:43,240 –> 00:10:47,480
twenty twenty five. They did not die because it was inevitable.

160
00:10:47,879 –> 00:10:52,360
They died because in Nigeria life has become cheap. Because

161
00:10:52,440 –> 00:10:55,879
those meant to protect lives and property did not because

162
00:10:55,960 –> 00:11:00,879
no one came in time, because somehow nobody cared enough.

163
00:11:01,320 –> 00:11:04,200
How does a family bury three promising sons on the

164
00:11:04,240 –> 00:11:08,200
same day. How do you explain such pain? This is

165
00:11:08,279 –> 00:11:12,240
not just sad, It is devastating. It breaks the heart.

166
00:11:12,600 –> 00:11:15,519
What hurts even more is knowing that their brother, a

167
00:11:15,600 –> 00:11:19,279
priest and my friend here in Scotland. The remaining siblings

168
00:11:19,440 –> 00:11:22,080
will live the rest of their life and ministry carrying

169
00:11:22,120 –> 00:11:25,159
this memory, the knowledge of how their brothers died and

170
00:11:25,240 –> 00:11:29,399
how helpless everyone was. May Nigeria not happened to any

171
00:11:29,399 –> 00:11:33,039
of us. In Jesus’s name, I pray that the Lord

172
00:11:33,080 –> 00:11:36,440
grants this family the fortitude to carry a grief this heavy.

173
00:11:37,200 –> 00:11:42,039
May the souls of Stephen, Casmir and Collins rest in peace. Amen.

174
00:11:42,399 –> 00:11:46,639
On January ninth, twenty twenty six, Father A. James also

175
00:11:46,720 –> 00:11:49,440
treated and said, I just came off a call with

176
00:11:49,559 –> 00:11:52,639
Father William Ometu, the brother of the three siblings that

177
00:11:52,759 –> 00:11:55,840
lost their lives in the Legos market fire, and he

178
00:11:55,919 –> 00:11:58,600
told me they could not recover the bodies of his brothers.

179
00:11:59,399 –> 00:12:02,960
They were left only with ashes. In fact, he showed

180
00:12:02,960 –> 00:12:05,679
me the ashes he had just collected from the site.

181
00:12:06,320 –> 00:12:09,639
This is painful. And heartbreaking. He told me that about

182
00:12:09,679 –> 00:12:13,559
one hundred people died in that building. What a tragedy.

183
00:12:13,840 –> 00:12:16,320
I cannot imagine what it feels like for him and

184
00:12:16,360 –> 00:12:19,440
his remaining siblings at this time, but I pray that

185
00:12:19,480 –> 00:12:23,240
God will see him through. Amen, please keep them in

186
00:12:23,279 –> 00:12:25,799
your prayers as they travel for the burial.

187
00:12:26,039 –> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: Were living witness and my friend also they also sending

188
00:12:29,679 –> 00:12:32,360
business in this plaza, so very close to this place.

189
00:12:32,879 –> 00:12:35,639
But what I observed, Wendy, if I us started around

190
00:12:36,240 –> 00:12:40,799
to around for something, is that they call some private

191
00:12:41,039 –> 00:12:45,200
fire service in the first places the accorded and as

192
00:12:45,200 –> 00:12:48,320
their goden they did that did they demand? For that’s

193
00:12:48,320 –> 00:12:52,600
a Minian era and it starts just only one floor,

194
00:12:52,840 –> 00:12:56,039
and the only one floor is not he’s not even

195
00:12:56,120 –> 00:13:01,159
every week. That’s only particular like particular little little places.

196
00:13:01,159 –> 00:13:05,399
Indeed in the first building, first day floor, that’s it.

197
00:13:05,480 –> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 3: Then try to to stop the fire to get to

198
00:13:07,840 –> 00:13:11,759
this extent and there there’s a way even when they’re packed.

199
00:13:11,759 –> 00:13:15,480
Their packed are the the opposite of wedding did the

200
00:13:15,519 –> 00:13:20,320
only opposite of the bad the bat eb What is

201
00:13:20,480 –> 00:13:23,720
stopping them towards to to stop the fire then before

202
00:13:23,759 –> 00:13:24,480
it gets.

203
00:13:24,200 –> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 2: To this to this estate so that’s my blame that

204
00:13:27,919 –> 00:13:28,919
private vers I’m.

205
00:13:28,759 –> 00:13:30,279
Speaker 4: Supposed to be supposed to be to.

206
00:13:30,639 –> 00:13:33,399
Speaker 2: Be to be banned because that is the fact is

207
00:13:33,440 –> 00:13:35,240
not so messyiss.

208
00:13:36,000 –> 00:13:47,879
Speaker 3: So that’s that’s what I can say.

209
00:13:37,480 –> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 4: About the.

210
00:13:42,840 –> 00:13:46,519
Speaker 1: Inspector General of Police I G. P. Car Yode egg

211
00:13:46,559 –> 00:13:50,159
Betoken for days now has refused to speak or deliberately

212
00:13:50,279 –> 00:13:53,879
kept mum after a well known founder of a private organization,

213
00:13:54,519 –> 00:13:58,759
Harrison Gamers, you who have been assisting Nigeria’s security operatives

214
00:13:58,799 –> 00:14:02,360
with credible and reliable intelligence information that have led to

215
00:14:02,399 –> 00:14:05,519
the killing and arrest of several kidnappers. In a video

216
00:14:05,639 –> 00:14:09,879
statement on Saturday, revealed the complicit of the Nigeria Police

217
00:14:10,039 –> 00:14:13,240
Force in aiding and trying to cover up a reasonable

218
00:14:13,320 –> 00:14:16,480
suspect behind the kidnapping of a couple in the late

219
00:14:16,600 –> 00:14:20,360
days of November twenty twenty five at Avili community in

220
00:14:20,440 –> 00:14:24,279
the Etseco West Local Government area of Edo State. And

221
00:14:24,360 –> 00:14:27,200
the reasonable suspect happened to be the younger brother of

222
00:14:27,240 –> 00:14:31,039
the man who was kidnapped alongside his wife, which the

223
00:14:31,159 –> 00:14:34,360
kidnappers only set free the wife after a sting operational.

224
00:14:34,440 –> 00:14:38,279
Ransom money of twenty million nyers was given to the kidnappers,

225
00:14:38,320 –> 00:14:41,960
with the Reasonable Suspect fully aware of all arrangements of

226
00:14:42,000 –> 00:14:46,200
the top secret security plans of Harrison Guamnereshu, but decided

227
00:14:46,240 –> 00:14:49,919
to make the sensitive security information public even when his

228
00:14:50,039 –> 00:14:53,639
elder brother is still held captive by the kidnappers. The

229
00:14:53,679 –> 00:14:57,440
Reasonable Suspect, in a TikTok video life streaming, admitted that

230
00:14:57,480 –> 00:15:00,519
he was actually among the people arrested by Soul over

231
00:15:00,600 –> 00:15:04,519
an issue he the Reasonable Suspect refused to state. The

232
00:15:04,600 –> 00:15:08,120
Reasonable Suspect, among others, were handed over to the Nigeria

233
00:15:08,200 –> 00:15:12,600
Police Force for the continuation of investigation and possible prosecution,

234
00:15:13,120 –> 00:15:17,440
but according to Harrison Guamashue, immediately police noticed he was

235
00:15:17,480 –> 00:15:21,159
able to recognize the Reasonable Suspect as a family member

236
00:15:21,159 –> 00:15:23,919
who was aware of his security plans and he was

237
00:15:23,960 –> 00:15:26,279
also the one that helped deliver the money to the

238
00:15:26,360 –> 00:15:29,679
kidnappers in the bush. An order within the police authority

239
00:15:29,759 –> 00:15:33,440
came and the Reasonable Suspect was set free immediately, while

240
00:15:33,480 –> 00:15:37,440
others arrested alongside the Reasonable Suspect were remanded to prison.

241
00:15:37,799 –> 00:15:41,960
That aside, Harrison Guamashue, in an exclusive interview with TVC

242
00:15:42,279 –> 00:15:46,399
television station made available to the public by the broadcast

243
00:15:46,480 –> 00:15:50,679
media on Sunday night, indicated that the Nigeria Police Force

244
00:15:50,799 –> 00:15:54,440
had all the opportunities and chances to rescue the remaining

245
00:15:54,519 –> 00:15:58,679
kidnapped victims, but the police deliberately refused to go into

246
00:15:58,720 –> 00:16:01,080
the bush with the police. He’s saying that the kind

247
00:16:01,120 –> 00:16:04,960
of intelligence information he had provided is an archaic style

248
00:16:05,039 –> 00:16:09,720
of intelligence gathering. This, according to Harrison Guamashue, forced him

249
00:16:09,720 –> 00:16:12,840
to show the police video evidences of how his style

250
00:16:12,960 –> 00:16:18,080
of intelligence has aided successful offensive operation against kidnappers, but

251
00:16:18,559 –> 00:16:22,519
all his explanations went on dearias, even when for days

252
00:16:22,919 –> 00:16:25,600
the tracking devices he added to the special money he

253
00:16:25,679 –> 00:16:28,559
mixed with the original money given to the kidnappers as

254
00:16:28,679 –> 00:16:32,080
ransom was still showing the exact location of the kidnappers

255
00:16:32,080 –> 00:16:35,159
and other useful information that could have enabled the police

256
00:16:35,240 –> 00:16:39,639
mobilize and rescue the remaining kidnap victims. According to the

257
00:16:39,679 –> 00:16:44,440
reasonable suspect, Harrison Guamashue was actually contacted to help capture

258
00:16:44,480 –> 00:16:48,039
the kidnappers. This statement probably indicated that he ought not

259
00:16:48,120 –> 00:16:51,120
to be surprised that some original money was removed from

260
00:16:51,120 –> 00:16:54,399
the bag by Harrison Guamishue, except he can explain better

261
00:16:54,440 –> 00:16:58,240
how he expected Harrison Guamashue to capture the kidnappers without

262
00:16:58,279 –> 00:17:03,200
acting intelligently. Harrison Guamashau had said that the reasonable suspect

263
00:17:03,279 –> 00:17:05,359
came with the money with a lot of young people

264
00:17:05,400 –> 00:17:09,359
who were with him in the hotel. According to Harrison Guamashue,

265
00:17:09,640 –> 00:17:13,279
he visited the hotel the reasonable suspect was and observed

266
00:17:13,279 –> 00:17:15,960
the presence of a lot of young individuals before he

267
00:17:16,039 –> 00:17:18,559
asked him to bring the money to his hotel room,

268
00:17:19,319 –> 00:17:22,680
adding that after the reasonable suspect brought the money to

269
00:17:22,720 –> 00:17:27,039
his hotel room, he left, leaving him Harrison Guamashaue and

270
00:17:27,079 –> 00:17:29,359
the brother of the woman who was kidnapped with her

271
00:17:29,440 –> 00:17:34,240
husband in the hotel room. Harrison Guamlishue said the wife’s brother,

272
00:17:34,279 –> 00:17:36,759
who he said to be a medical doctor, was inside

273
00:17:36,799 –> 00:17:39,559
the room while he was scattering the money and replacing

274
00:17:39,640 –> 00:17:43,920
some with the tracking devices. The reasonable suspect failed to

275
00:17:43,960 –> 00:17:47,440
state why he left Harrison Guamashaue inside the hotel room

276
00:17:47,480 –> 00:17:51,119
while he was working on the money. The reasonable suspect

277
00:17:51,200 –> 00:17:54,000
failed to state the issue he felt was more important

278
00:17:54,039 –> 00:17:56,319
than the life of his elder brother and his wife

279
00:17:56,680 –> 00:17:59,680
that should make him leave Harrison Guamlashau and others alone

280
00:17:59,720 –> 00:18:03,920
in the hotel room. The reasonable suspect also admitted that

281
00:18:03,960 –> 00:18:08,440
the kidnappers never counted the money, that immediately he opened

282
00:18:08,480 –> 00:18:11,279
the bag in the presence of the kidnappers, saw the

283
00:18:11,319 –> 00:18:14,400
way and manner the nyra notes were scattered. He concluded

284
00:18:14,400 –> 00:18:17,559
that Harrison Gwamnashu had removed some money from the bag,

285
00:18:18,240 –> 00:18:21,759
adding that immediately he left the presence of the kidnappers,

286
00:18:22,160 –> 00:18:25,480
he started calling people to inform them that Harrison Gwamnershu

287
00:18:25,559 –> 00:18:29,400
had removed some money. And when the Divisional Police Officer

288
00:18:29,799 –> 00:18:33,920
GPO asked Harrison Gwamnashu if actually he removed some money

289
00:18:33,960 –> 00:18:37,720
from the bag, Harrison said yes, stating clearly that that

290
00:18:37,920 –> 00:18:41,559
is how he does his work. The reasonable suspect never

291
00:18:41,640 –> 00:18:45,279
stated why such an information became an issue on social media,

292
00:18:45,400 –> 00:18:49,000
even when his brother was instill with the kidnappers. The

293
00:18:49,079 –> 00:18:53,079
reasonable suspect said the kidnappers are now demanding the exact

294
00:18:53,160 –> 00:18:56,279
five point four million nyrous balance of the twenty million

295
00:18:56,400 –> 00:18:59,880
nyras and an additional sixty million niras ransom before they

296
00:19:00,079 –> 00:19:05,000
would release his elder brother. Harrison Guamashu, while speaking on Saturday,

297
00:19:05,440 –> 00:19:09,720
said the reasonable suspect was arrested alongside others with guns

298
00:19:09,759 –> 00:19:13,000
in Auchi by soldiers and they were subsequently handed over

299
00:19:13,039 –> 00:19:15,920
to the Police Area Command in Achi and the police

300
00:19:15,960 –> 00:19:19,640
command thereafter transferred the suspects to the State Police Command

301
00:19:19,680 –> 00:19:23,559
in Benin City, where the reasonable suspect was set free

302
00:19:23,599 –> 00:19:27,680
without proper explanation from the police authority. Many who have

303
00:19:27,839 –> 00:19:30,759
spoken about the arrest of the reasonable suspect by the

304
00:19:30,839 –> 00:19:35,160
soldiers indicated that the reasonable suspect and others arrested alongside

305
00:19:35,240 –> 00:19:38,160
him were captured by the soldiers in a secret cult

306
00:19:38,200 –> 00:19:42,640
related crime, and recent crackdowns in late twenty twenty five

307
00:19:42,720 –> 00:19:45,640
and early twenty twenty six in Edo State based on

308
00:19:45,759 –> 00:19:48,359
police reports, have led to the arrest of over one

309
00:19:48,440 –> 00:19:51,799
hundred and twelve suspects, many of whom confess to being

310
00:19:51,839 –> 00:19:56,440
both kidnappers and secret cult members. If true, the reasonable

311
00:19:56,480 –> 00:20:00,400
suspect was arrested by soldiers in secret cult related activis liberties,

312
00:20:00,799 –> 00:20:03,519
on what ground was he granted bail or set free

313
00:20:03,519 –> 00:20:06,920
by the police. Who is the police authority that gave

314
00:20:06,960 –> 00:20:09,680
the order for the reasonable suspect to be set free

315
00:20:09,720 –> 00:20:13,160
even when the police authority knows that secret cult related

316
00:20:13,200 –> 00:20:16,079
crime in the state is a capital offense that attracts

317
00:20:16,160 –> 00:20:20,000
more than twenty years jail term and life imprisonment. The

318
00:20:20,039 –> 00:20:23,920
information available to us indicated that the reasonable suspect may

319
00:20:23,960 –> 00:20:26,880
have run away from Nigeria and the current condition of

320
00:20:26,960 –> 00:20:30,000
things with the people still remaining with the kidnappers are

321
00:20:30,079 –> 00:20:34,000
yet to be ascertained. We had reported that Harrison Guamaschu,

322
00:20:34,359 –> 00:20:38,279
the founder of a registered private organization assisting the Nigeria

323
00:20:38,400 –> 00:20:42,599
security operatives with credible and reliable intelligence information that have

324
00:20:42,720 –> 00:20:45,319
led to the killing and arrest of several kidnappers in

325
00:20:45,359 –> 00:20:49,400
the West Africa country, especially in the South South geopolitical

326
00:20:49,519 –> 00:20:52,759
zone of Edo and Delta States, in a video statement

327
00:20:52,799 –> 00:20:57,039
issued via his verified social media account a few hours ago,

328
00:20:57,400 –> 00:20:59,559
has said that the family member and a brother of

329
00:20:59,559 –> 00:21:02,200
the kidnap couple who worked with him and his team

330
00:21:02,279 –> 00:21:06,480
to deliver the prepared sting operational twenty million nira’s ransom

331
00:21:06,559 –> 00:21:10,119
to the kidnappers has been arrested alongside his gang members

332
00:21:10,160 –> 00:21:14,960
with guns. But according to Harrison Guamashu, immediately the Nigeria

333
00:21:15,039 –> 00:21:18,400
Police Force noticed that he could vividly recognize the suspect

334
00:21:18,480 –> 00:21:21,759
as a brother to the kidnapped couple, the Nigeria Police

335
00:21:21,759 –> 00:21:25,759
Force quickly released the suspect and charged other members of

336
00:21:25,799 –> 00:21:29,319
his gang arrested in Aucheta court, even when the kidnapping

337
00:21:29,440 –> 00:21:33,119
involving the suspects brother and wife is generating more reactions

338
00:21:33,160 –> 00:21:35,839

460
00:27:40,160 –> 00:27:43,440

461
00:27:43,519 –> 00:27:46,279

464
00:27:51,279 –> 00:27:51,839
Speaker 4: He had this note.

465
00:27:51,920 –> 00:27:53,839
Speaker 5: If this all this is that happened, and it’s understanding,

466
00:27:53,960 –> 00:27:56,400
they will go to the Policican, go to DPP and

467
00:27:56,559 –> 00:27:58,720
withdraw the case because this case is still there because

468
00:27:58,759 –> 00:28:03,920
has not been dismissed. I see just release conditionally got

469
00:28:04,000 –> 00:28:04,920
involved in this case.

470
00:28:05,039 –> 00:28:06,799
Speaker 4: The case wasn’t more.

471
00:28:07,119 –> 00:28:09,519
Speaker 6: But to come to that exactly we saw that. We

472
00:28:09,599 –> 00:28:11,240
went ahead to say that the man is still in

473
00:28:11,319 –> 00:28:13,799
a very critical condition and the family is not selling

474
00:28:13,880 –> 00:28:18,480
the man’s property. Is that true, Harrison, would you.

475
00:28:18,480 –> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 4: Come from the critical I wouldn’t know if the man

476
00:28:22,319 –> 00:28:23,240
is in a critical.

477
00:28:22,960 –> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 6: Condition, I mean the property, the selling of the man’s property.

478
00:28:25,759 –> 00:28:27,359
That the family reached out that they need to not

479
00:28:27,440 –> 00:28:28,480
sell the property.

480
00:28:30,000 –> 00:28:30,519
Speaker 2: That’s true.

481
00:28:30,960 –> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 7: Someone a friend reached out to them, a friend of

482
00:28:33,480 –> 00:28:37,240
married out to them and said he can we sorry,

483
00:28:37,559 –> 00:28:39,640
the woman the most. The wife of the man reached

484
00:28:39,720 –> 00:28:42,519
out to a friend, somebody who close, who is close

485
00:28:42,640 –> 00:28:45,839
to me. I said, they kidnappers start they had the

486
00:28:45,880 –> 00:28:49,039
money for so so so, and you people are disposed.

487
00:28:49,559 –> 00:28:51,880
And the man was angry and said, because the man

488
00:28:51,880 –> 00:28:56,599
already advised them before. Now relief that he keeping the

489
00:28:56,680 –> 00:29:01,440
cell is not going to resolve this matter. The hard

490
00:29:01,480 –> 00:29:03,599
take an appeast you guys and getting this guy out

491
00:29:03,920 –> 00:29:06,240
because I did what I was then a station what

492
00:29:06,720 –> 00:29:09,279
what went to the bush? Was this showing all the

493
00:29:09,400 –> 00:29:12,279
exact location where the where this guy man? But the

494
00:29:12,359 –> 00:29:13,559
police refused to act on it.

495
00:29:13,799 –> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 6: So okay, the police didn’t want to act on it,

496
00:29:15,440 –> 00:29:16,720
but they knew where the location was.

497
00:29:16,880 –> 00:29:19,119
Speaker 4: They refused to Yes, what would be the.

498
00:29:21,440 –> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 7: I don’t know, but the police was was just glammoring

499
00:29:25,279 –> 00:29:29,359
on prosecuting me for you know, for god knows.

500
00:29:29,559 –> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 4: I don’t know.

501
00:29:30,279 –> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 7: I don’t know even till I’m here when I start

502
00:29:32,640 –> 00:29:35,279
where they were. So but I believe because of my

503
00:29:35,400 –> 00:29:38,000
years of advocacy and instruction.

504
00:29:37,920 –> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 4: Maybe all right.

505
00:29:40,000 –> 00:29:43,119

Speaker 7: I don’t play kid I don’t play as to kidnappers.

00:30:48,319 –> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 4: The family went in and gave the money to.

00:30:51,200 –> 00:30:51,799
Speaker 7: The kid nappers.

531
00:30:51,839 –> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 6: So the family met with the kidnappers.

and give them in their legs while they are there

535
00:31:04,680 –> 00:31:07,119

Speaker 4: You move the religious thing and give to you. But

537
00:31:11,119 –> 00:31:14,160

538
00:31:14,319 –> 00:31:17,440

539
00:31:18,119 –> 00:31:23,319
This is the point you want, Yeah, that’s not.

540
00:31:24,839 –> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 5: This.

541
00:31:27,359 –> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 4: This is the this is the point.

542
00:31:29,000 –> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 7: The money was not counted to know if it’s a

543
00:31:30,759 –> 00:31:33,400
both twenty million or listen to million. But what went

544
00:31:33,440 –> 00:31:36,720
through that forest was twenty millionaires, was twenty million. I

545
00:31:36,759 –> 00:31:39,279
went into that forest. Yeah, that was what went into

546
00:31:39,359 –> 00:31:39,799
that forest.

547
00:31:40,599 –> 00:31:42,119
Speaker 6: But you know right right about now.

548
00:31:42,519 –> 00:31:45,359
Speaker 7: But but but but there are there are things, there

549
00:31:45,400 –> 00:31:50,440
are things involved which I cannot stay now exactly I think. Yeah, so,

550
00:31:50,720 –> 00:31:53,119
but what went into that forest was twenty million, and

551
00:31:53,200 –> 00:31:56,200
I went to that forest. And again, please, that man

552
00:31:56,319 –> 00:31:58,279
was not kill laugh below and the wife and family

553
00:31:58,359 –> 00:32:01,599
working laugh too. A man and wife was kidnapped. The

554
00:32:01,720 –> 00:32:03,759
man also is corrected there with the man. The man

555
00:32:03,839 –> 00:32:07,640
family brought twenty million lere to the same kidnappers. The

556
00:32:07,720 –> 00:32:10,359
kidnappers took that money and they’re not also really that

557
00:32:10,480 –> 00:32:13,160
man to they’s gonna get mine that for us now, So.

558
00:32:13,279 –> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 6: Now it’s not just the man in the forest. Actually

559
00:32:14,920 –> 00:32:16,359
there’s another man in the forest as well.

560
00:32:17,000 –> 00:32:18,839
Speaker 7: No, there’s not a many for us. The man was

561
00:32:18,920 –> 00:32:22,279
kidnapped with his wife and then a little tie. The

562
00:32:22,359 –> 00:32:24,480
kidnapers noted that the child was prying. There is the

563
00:32:24,519 –> 00:32:25,640
wife and the type to grow.

564
00:32:26,079 –> 00:32:27,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, they heard a man.

565
00:32:27,519 –> 00:32:27,839
Speaker 3: That man.

566
00:32:27,880 –> 00:32:30,359
Speaker 7: The family also came to pay money twenty million lere.

567
00:32:30,559 –> 00:32:32,519
Speaker 4: They took the money. That same thing, that fam life.

568
00:32:32,880 –> 00:32:34,519
Speaker 6: But how do you say with this whole thing, I’m

569
00:32:34,640 –> 00:32:37,599
worried that you know, these families. You’re saying that these

570
00:32:37,640 –> 00:32:40,279
families go and they see these kidnappers one on one.

571
00:32:40,559 –> 00:32:42,400
You know, I’m worried that if they know where they are,

572
00:32:42,480 –> 00:32:44,480
they see them. You know, that’s very scary.

573
00:32:44,519 –> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 4: Anything will have happened to these families.

574
00:32:48,599 –> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 6: Why didn’t the police take charge at any point of

575
00:32:51,359 –> 00:32:51,759
all of this.

576
00:32:54,039 –> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 7: They have opportunity to have striked them. They have big opportunities.

577
00:32:57,480 –> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 6: So the police had the opportunity to strike them.

578
00:33:00,480 –> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 7: They had the opportunity. They said that my method was

579
00:33:03,720 –> 00:33:06,640
a bittered that was that was what they gave. I said, no,

580
00:33:07,000 –> 00:33:09,640
I gave them gidos and piccause of the recover bas

581
00:33:09,799 –> 00:33:14,720
was made. The g those pictures of of of this

582
00:33:14,880 –> 00:33:17,200
kidnapper that the ability alive by the military.

583
00:33:17,240 –> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 4: I don’t lose alive, I don’t really free.

584
00:33:19,079 –> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 7: I with my tee, we we show them the tracks

585
00:33:25,759 –> 00:33:28,880

586

for us. So from sometimes the security will tell you,

587
00:33:32,559 –> 00:33:34,720
I’m not part of your pressure because they will just

588
00:33:34,839 –> 00:33:37,440

589
00:33:37,559 –> 00:33:39,960

00:33:45,960 –> 00:33:46,799
Speaker 4: I’m there with them.

593
00:33:47,519 –> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 6: You came out and apologized.

594
00:33:49,880 –> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: Lady Harrison Guamos, the founder of a registered private organization

595
00:33:58,119 –> 00:34:02,599
assisting the Nigeria security operatives with credible and reliable intelligence

596
00:34:02,680 –> 00:34:05,039
information that have led to the killing and arrest of

597
00:34:05,119 –> 00:34:08,920
several kidnappers in the West Africa country, especially in the

598
00:34:09,039 –> 00:34:12,800
South South geopolitical zone of Edo and Delta States, in

599
00:34:12,880 –> 00:34:16,920
a video statement issued via his verified social media account

600
00:34:17,000 –> 00:34:19,960
a few hours ago, has said that the family member

601
00:34:20,039 –> 00:34:22,559
and a brother of the kidnapped couple who worked with

602
00:34:22,679 –> 00:34:25,840
him and his team to deliver the prepared sting operational

603
00:34:25,960 –> 00:34:29,679
twenty million niras ransom to the kidnappers, has been arrested

604
00:34:29,760 –> 00:34:34,880
alongside his gang members with guns, but according to Harrison Gwambershook,

605
00:34:35,079 –> 00:34:38,639
immediately the Nigeria Police Force noticed that he could vividly

606
00:34:38,760 –> 00:34:41,719
recognize the suspect as a brother to the kidnapped couple,

607
00:34:42,199 –> 00:34:45,639
the Nigeria Police Force quickly released the suspect and charged

608
00:34:45,719 –> 00:34:49,119
other members of his gang arrested in Aucheta Court, even

609
00:34:49,159 –> 00:34:52,159
when the kidnapping involving the suspects brother and wife is

610
00:34:52,280 –> 00:34:55,519
generating more reactions after the wife was set free by

611
00:34:55,559 –> 00:34:58,559
the kidnappers while the husband, who is the suspect’s brother,

612
00:34:58,760 –> 00:35:01,920
is still held in activity till date by the kidnappers

613
00:35:02,000 –> 00:35:04,920
since both were kidnapped in their home at Avili Village

614
00:35:05,000 –> 00:35:08,079
in the Exico West Local Government area of Edo State

615
00:35:08,199 –> 00:35:12,199
in late days of November twenty twenty five. According to

616
00:35:12,320 –> 00:35:15,719
Harrison Guamashue, before the ransom money was delivered to the

617
00:35:15,840 –> 00:35:19,280
kidnappers inside the bush, the kidnappers made a phone call

618
00:35:19,360 –> 00:35:22,159
to the arrested and quickly set free suspect to give

619
00:35:22,280 –> 00:35:25,079
him the exact location to drop the money. He was

620
00:35:25,159 –> 00:35:28,320
surprised to hear one of the kidnapped victims, the husband,

621
00:35:28,440 –> 00:35:31,320
still with the kidnappers, begging his brother, who is currently

622
00:35:31,440 –> 00:35:34,440
seen as the suspect behind the kidnapping, to forgive him

623
00:35:34,480 –> 00:35:37,639
if he has done anything wrong to him. The pleading

624
00:35:37,719 –> 00:35:40,519
shocked him, but Harrison said he decided to act as

625
00:35:40,559 –> 00:35:44,360
if he never heard anything. Harrison Guamashu added that the

626
00:35:44,440 –> 00:35:47,559
suspect he was the family member that raised the alarm

627
00:35:47,679 –> 00:35:50,960
that the ransom money wasn’t complete, that that was the

628
00:35:51,039 –> 00:35:53,920
reason the kidnappers only released the wife and refused to

629
00:35:54,000 –> 00:35:58,599
set free the husband, Stating clearly that everyone who participated

630
00:35:58,679 –> 00:36:00,960
in taking the money to the kids dnappers affirmed that

631
00:36:01,039 –> 00:36:04,440
the kidnappers never counted the money, that even if the

632
00:36:04,519 –> 00:36:08,079
kidnappers had counted the money, he prepared the money specially

633
00:36:08,159 –> 00:36:11,159
by only scattering the tracking devices on the dummy NIRA

634
00:36:11,320 –> 00:36:14,119
notes that looked like original NYRA notes in a manner

635
00:36:14,199 –> 00:36:17,679
that made the whole money complete. The family member who

636
00:36:17,760 –> 00:36:20,280
delivered the ransom to the kidnappers and some of his

637
00:36:20,440 –> 00:36:24,199
gangs were arrested with guns in Auchi by soldiers. The

638
00:36:24,360 –> 00:36:28,639
soldiers handed them over to Auchieria Command Auchi AIA command

639
00:36:28,760 –> 00:36:31,719
transferred and to Anti Cultism Unit s c I D

640
00:36:32,000 –> 00:36:34,760
Benine and along the side an order came that the

641
00:36:34,800 –> 00:36:38,320
boys should be released. Other people with him were charged

642
00:36:38,360 –> 00:36:41,559
to court and sent to prison. Same boy was with

643
00:36:41,719 –> 00:36:44,599
us in Auchi and knows our plans. I told the

644
00:36:44,639 –> 00:36:48,679
police my story, my statement is with the police. They

645
00:36:48,800 –> 00:36:54,519
did nothing. Continuing, Harrison Guamoshue stated verbatim, Thus, good afternoon.

646
00:36:54,960 –> 00:36:58,760
My name is Harrison Guamashue. While I was in custody

647
00:36:58,840 –> 00:37:03,039
in State sid Benin at the CP’s office. CP was

648
00:37:03,079 –> 00:37:05,719
in that meeting. The Chief of Staff to the Governor

649
00:37:05,840 –> 00:37:08,840
was in that meeting. The CSO to the governor, chief

650
00:37:08,920 –> 00:37:11,760
Security Officer to the Governor was in that meeting. The

651
00:37:11,800 –> 00:37:14,880
Commissioner for Security and Public Safety was in that meeting.

652
00:37:15,239 –> 00:37:18,239
The head of investigative team was in that meeting. The

653
00:37:18,320 –> 00:37:20,960
family members were in that meeting. The wife of the

654
00:37:21,039 –> 00:37:23,800
man kidnapped was in that meeting, his brother was in

655
00:37:23,920 –> 00:37:27,280
that meeting, and other parties were there. My lawyer was

656
00:37:27,320 –> 00:37:29,360
in that meeting, and then a friend of mine who

657
00:37:29,440 –> 00:37:32,679
lives in Benin was also in that meeting. And the

658
00:37:32,760 –> 00:37:36,079
family pleaded. They said that nobody should ever post about

659
00:37:36,119 –> 00:37:40,199
this matter on social media until the matter is resolved.

660
00:37:40,679 –> 00:37:44,159
I accepted. When I left the police custody, I did

661
00:37:44,239 –> 00:37:47,440
not say anything about it. They have been the ones

662
00:37:47,559 –> 00:37:51,480
now going around telling people things that never existed and

663
00:37:51,639 –> 00:37:54,760
they are now posting on social media. People are now

664
00:37:54,920 –> 00:37:59,559
changing posting narratives and the rest of it now. Number one,

665
00:38:00,079 –> 00:38:02,960
this guy you see on the screen, this guy, this

666
00:38:03,159 –> 00:38:05,360
is the family member that went to drop the money

667
00:38:05,400 –> 00:38:09,119
to the kidnappers. He was aware of the arrangement. The

668
00:38:09,320 –> 00:38:12,840
arrangement was that. Now look at when I was in

669
00:38:12,920 –> 00:38:16,320
a saba. They said, the kidnappers demanded for fifty million

670
00:38:16,440 –> 00:38:19,760
for both of them, the husband and wife, and they

671
00:38:19,800 –> 00:38:23,800
were able to raise twenty million nirah. Now the kidnappers

672
00:38:23,880 –> 00:38:26,360
now told them that with twenty million naira they will

673
00:38:26,440 –> 00:38:29,599
release only the woman. That was what they told me

674
00:38:29,800 –> 00:38:32,760
while I was in a saba. Later they said the

675
00:38:32,880 –> 00:38:36,159
kidnappers accepted to collect twenty million nirah for the both

676
00:38:36,199 –> 00:38:40,000
of them. They pleaded that the wife is pregnant, although

677
00:38:40,079 –> 00:38:42,920
the kidnappers were telling them that that money would be

678
00:38:43,000 –> 00:38:46,840
for only the wife. Later they said the kidnappers accepted

679
00:38:46,920 –> 00:38:50,360
to collect twenty million nirah. Why I was invited was

680
00:38:50,440 –> 00:38:53,960
not to go and give the kidnappers money. No, it

681
00:38:54,159 –> 00:38:56,239
was for me to fix something in the bag of

682
00:38:56,360 –> 00:38:59,440
money they are taking to the kidnappers. This is not

683
00:38:59,639 –> 00:39:01,400
what I am. I am supposed to say on the

684
00:39:01,480 –> 00:39:05,880
social media space, but now it is time for me

685
00:39:06,039 –> 00:39:09,079
to say the way it is so that anywhere it

686
00:39:09,199 –> 00:39:12,360
is going people will know the true fact of the story,

687
00:39:13,159 –> 00:39:16,360
so that they will stop believing one sided story. And

688
00:39:16,519 –> 00:39:19,639
when I got into Auchi, this same guy you see here,

689
00:39:20,079 –> 00:39:23,119
they brought the money to my hotel. I first of

690
00:39:23,199 –> 00:39:26,960
all went to their hotel. They were crowded. Young boys

691
00:39:27,039 –> 00:39:30,199
were there. They now came to my hotel. While in

692
00:39:30,320 –> 00:39:34,239
my hotel room they left somebody, a doctor who is

693
00:39:34,320 –> 00:39:37,039
a brother to the woman. He was sitting there in

694
00:39:37,159 –> 00:39:40,840
my room. I did my job perfectly. The bag was

695
00:39:40,880 –> 00:39:43,119
sealed up for them to take it to the kidnappers

696
00:39:43,199 –> 00:39:46,920
in the forest. Now, before they moved to the forest,

697
00:39:47,280 –> 00:39:51,119
the kidnappers called and he answered the phone, which was

698
00:39:51,199 –> 00:39:53,800
the last pick up for them to give direction where

699
00:39:53,800 –> 00:39:56,920
they’re coming. The man in the bush, the man with

700
00:39:57,039 –> 00:39:59,800
the still held in the bush, was begging this guy.

701
00:40:00,679 –> 00:40:04,000
The doctor was there. The doctor, the brother to the woman,

702
00:40:04,440 –> 00:40:07,679
was sitting down there. My driver was there, and other

703
00:40:07,760 –> 00:40:10,559
people were sitting down there. The man in the bush

704
00:40:10,679 –> 00:40:15,840
was begging the brother. This one begging this guy. He said, please,

705
00:40:16,199 –> 00:40:19,760
if I have wronged you before, forgive me. If I

706
00:40:19,880 –> 00:40:23,360
have done something to you before, forgive me. And he

707
00:40:23,480 –> 00:40:27,079
began to beg him. A beg. Now me and my

708
00:40:27,239 –> 00:40:31,440
wife are here. You know my wife A beg if

709
00:40:31,519 –> 00:40:34,840
I have done you wrong before, I begged, forgive me.

710
00:40:35,800 –> 00:40:39,519
I begged, I begged. He was begging this guy. Then

711
00:40:39,960 –> 00:40:43,199
the phone hanged up. I asked him. I asked him,

712
00:40:43,559 –> 00:40:47,039
why was your brother begging you? He said, I get

713
00:40:47,119 –> 00:40:52,480
previous transaction. I said, hey, it’s okay, no problem. I

714
00:40:52,880 –> 00:40:55,599
just do as if. It didn’t even go in my head.

715
00:40:56,440 –> 00:41:00,400
Nothing happened. I just left it. So they carried the

716
00:41:00,480 –> 00:41:03,119
money to the bush, and when they got to the bush,

717
00:41:03,559 –> 00:41:06,360
they said, the kidnappers did not count the money to

718
00:41:06,440 –> 00:41:09,239
know whether it is above twenty million narra or below

719
00:41:09,360 –> 00:41:13,320
twenty million nira. If they have counted that money, that

720
00:41:13,480 –> 00:41:16,199
money will be twenty million nira because what we did,

721
00:41:16,679 –> 00:41:18,559
what we did was what we are supposed to do.

722
00:41:19,519 –> 00:41:22,280
They only saw that the money was counted, but they

723
00:41:22,360 –> 00:41:25,400
did not count the money. It was this same guy,

724
00:41:25,880 –> 00:41:29,280
thank god, he was there with my driver who confirmed everything.

725
00:41:30,079 –> 00:41:32,440
It was this same guy that came out and raised

726
00:41:32,480 –> 00:41:34,559
alarm that it was what I did that made them

727
00:41:34,599 –> 00:41:40,360
to hold the guy. Now, listen, kidnappers, these kidnappers, we’ve

728
00:41:40,440 –> 00:41:44,840
monitored them for months, both in Delta and in Edo States. Now,

729
00:41:45,239 –> 00:41:49,159
they don’t count money one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand,

730
00:41:49,519 –> 00:41:53,679
They count in bundles. So what we did was they

731
00:41:53,679 –> 00:41:57,280
wouldn’t have even noticed anything at all. They wouldn’t have

732
00:41:57,519 –> 00:42:01,320
noticed anything at all. We did our job perfectly well,

733
00:42:01,400 –> 00:42:04,880
and they took the money there the money was not counted.

734
00:42:05,400 –> 00:42:08,679
Now listen, now, it was not only this man they

735
00:42:08,760 –> 00:42:12,519
went to release and the wife. Another family they kidnapped.

736
00:42:12,880 –> 00:42:17,239
This family, they kidnapped, this one they kidnapped. They kidnapped

737
00:42:17,280 –> 00:42:20,960
this man, the wife and the husband. But along the

738
00:42:21,039 –> 00:42:23,760
line they released the woman and the child because the

739
00:42:23,880 –> 00:42:27,920
child was crying. The same family, this other family went

740
00:42:28,000 –> 00:42:31,760
also to pay ransom again to kidnappers too, and when

741
00:42:31,800 –> 00:42:35,079
they got there, the same kidnappers. When they got there,

742
00:42:35,519 –> 00:42:38,920
the kidnappers collected twenty million Nira and they didn’t release

743
00:42:39,000 –> 00:42:42,679
the man. So both this one and this one were

744
00:42:42,719 –> 00:42:45,199
taken back to the bush and the woman was released.

745
00:42:46,000 –> 00:42:49,880
That was what transpired. So while I was in custody

746
00:42:49,920 –> 00:42:54,360
in Benin. I saw young people they raided. They arrested

747
00:42:54,440 –> 00:42:58,679
young guys, brought them to the cell. What happened, They said,

748
00:42:58,719 –> 00:43:02,119
this boy here, this same person that paid ransom, They

749
00:43:02,199 –> 00:43:06,719
arrested him. He was arrested in Auchi, arrested them with guns,

750
00:43:07,159 –> 00:43:11,400
not only him, many of them. And suddenly they released

751
00:43:11,440 –> 00:43:14,800
this guy, this same guy that went to pay this ransom,

752
00:43:15,280 –> 00:43:17,599
that the order came from the police that they should

753
00:43:17,639 –> 00:43:20,960
let him go. They released him and I was in

754
00:43:21,079 –> 00:43:24,199
the cell with them. In fact, when they brought him

755
00:43:24,239 –> 00:43:27,239
to my cell, they quickly changed these people from my

756
00:43:27,440 –> 00:43:31,559
cell to another cell immediately because maybe they knew that

757
00:43:31,679 –> 00:43:35,800
those guys they have they know me. They changed them

758
00:43:35,840 –> 00:43:39,599
from my cell to another cell. I was surprised. Now,

759
00:43:40,079 –> 00:43:42,760
if you watch this video, you see what this boy

760
00:43:42,920 –> 00:43:47,239
is saying. Here he said, look at him celebrating when

761
00:43:47,280 –> 00:43:52,199
he was released. You like your freedom? Freedom is priceless. Yes,

762
00:43:52,639 –> 00:43:56,079
if you like me, I give you no. But if

763
00:43:56,119 –> 00:43:59,159
you like me, I give you at times for who

764
00:43:59,559 –> 00:44:02,920
at times I kill you. They did not charge this

765
00:44:03,119 –> 00:44:05,960
boy and other ones to court. This was the same

766
00:44:06,079 –> 00:44:08,880
guy who took the money to go and give the kidnappers.

767
00:44:09,760 –> 00:44:12,159
The same guy the brother in the bush was begging.

768
00:44:12,599 –> 00:44:16,320
That money was twenty million mira. Twenty million Mira was

769
00:44:16,400 –> 00:44:21,199
in that bag, twenty million mirah, twenty million mirah. If

770
00:44:21,280 –> 00:44:24,760
the kidnappers counted that money at that first stage, it

771
00:44:24,840 –> 00:44:28,920
would count twenty million mirah. But the social media issues

772
00:44:29,360 –> 00:44:32,400
they now increase. Now they announced that the family should

773
00:44:32,400 –> 00:44:36,559
bring in some amount of money. So my brothers, I

774
00:44:36,719 –> 00:44:39,920
did my best. I did my best. I didn’t do

775
00:44:40,039 –> 00:44:43,719
anything wrong in that matter. I did everything possible. But

776
00:44:43,880 –> 00:44:46,920
there are things I would still say, how the money,

777
00:44:47,280 –> 00:44:50,880
everything that happened, I would say it because if I

778
00:44:51,039 –> 00:44:54,480
say it, I think that ends my work too. I

779
00:44:54,599 –> 00:44:57,800
won’t be doing anything for anybody again. But I have

780
00:44:58,000 –> 00:45:00,960
to clear my name. I have to clear my name.

781
00:45:01,559 –> 00:45:04,320
So those of you who destroy my name on the

782
00:45:04,400 –> 00:45:09,079
social media space, there is no problem this narrative they’re

783
00:45:09,159 –> 00:45:12,519
selling to you, go ahead with it. Go ahead with it.

784
00:45:12,920 –> 00:45:17,039
Tounday ed Nutt. I was bashing him. Yes, I messaged him,

785
00:45:17,400 –> 00:45:21,599
I said, why do you stop posting that? VDM said

786
00:45:21,679 –> 00:45:25,199
he has something against me, and you stopped posting. He

787
00:45:25,320 –> 00:45:28,239
could not bring it up. Why do you stop posting?

788
00:45:28,760 –> 00:45:32,880
Post what? Just post it? Ask him questions, where is

789
00:45:32,960 –> 00:45:36,079
the evidence you say you have for Nigerians. You were

790
00:45:36,119 –> 00:45:39,960
giving us twenty four hours to confess. Where is the evidence?

791
00:45:40,440 –> 00:45:40,599
Speaker 4: Good?

792
00:45:40,639 –> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 7: After my name zarasm Ramchu while I was in constably,

793
00:45:44,840 –> 00:45:48,159
Stieg had me at the sipi’s offices.

794
00:45:48,159 –> 00:45:51,280
Speaker 4: All right, CIPY wasn’t admitting you chie for STAF.

795
00:45:51,079 –> 00:45:54,039
Speaker 7: To be governors in that meetings or to be government

796
00:45:54,119 –> 00:45:57,880
chief secret yourser the governors that the Commissa for Security

797
00:45:58,039 –> 00:46:02,639
and Public Ifty wasn’t admitting the head of investigative team

798
00:46:03,079 –> 00:46:05,440
that CSB or sage wasn’t that meeting?

799
00:46:05,760 –> 00:46:09,079
Speaker 4: The family members were in that meeting. The wife of

800
00:46:09,199 –> 00:46:10,760
the man kidnapped, wasn’t that meeting?

801
00:46:11,519 –> 00:46:14,079
Speaker 7: If his brother was in that meeting and other practices

802
00:46:14,119 –> 00:46:17,639
were there my lawyer brister before, wasn’t that meeting?

803
00:46:17,880 –> 00:46:19,760
Speaker 4: And then your friend, a friend of.

804
00:46:19,840 –> 00:46:23,599
Speaker 7: Mine who is who is who lives in beneath, was

805
00:46:23,679 –> 00:46:26,719
also in that meeting and the family pleaded. They said

806
00:46:27,559 –> 00:46:32,840
that nobody should ever post about this matter on social media.

807
00:46:34,000 –> 00:46:38,599
The matter is, solf I said. When I left the

808
00:46:38,639 –> 00:46:41,280
police calls study, I don’t see any ping about it.

809
00:46:43,519 –> 00:46:46,960
They have been the one now going around telling people

810
00:46:47,920 –> 00:46:51,679
things that never existed. And then I posting to social

811
00:46:51,760 –> 00:46:55,039
media people are now changing to stay narrative and the

812
00:46:55,119 –> 00:46:59,119
rest of them now number one, this guy will see

813
00:46:59,119 –> 00:47:01,480
you on the screen. This is this is determinly member.

814
00:47:01,559 –> 00:47:03,920
I went to drop the money to the kidnappers. He

815
00:47:04,119 –> 00:47:05,480
was aware of the arrangement.

816
00:47:06,480 –> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 4: The arrangement was that. Now look at when I was

817
00:47:09,119 –> 00:47:10,480
nice aber, they said.

818
00:47:10,360 –> 00:47:13,199
Speaker 7: The kidnappers demanded for fifteen million from booth of them

819
00:47:13,280 –> 00:47:19,280
the husband and wife, and they were they were able

820
00:47:19,320 –> 00:47:22,079
to waste twenty millionaire and the kidnappers and I told

821
00:47:22,119 –> 00:47:25,840
them that with twenty three millionaire they were released only

822
00:47:25,960 –> 00:47:26,360
the woman.

823
00:47:26,440 –> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 4: That was what they told me while I was nasurber.

824
00:47:30,679 –> 00:47:35,559
Speaker 7: Later they said that kidnappers accepted to collect her twenty

825
00:47:35,599 –> 00:47:37,440
millionaire for the booth of them. That they pleaded that

826
00:47:37,480 –> 00:47:39,760
the wife is pregnant or the knappers were telling her

827
00:47:39,800 –> 00:47:41,800
that that that money would be for only the wives.

828
00:47:43,119 –> 00:47:45,400
Later they said the kidapers had septy to collect twenty

829
00:47:45,440 –> 00:47:48,400
millionaire while I was invited. Was not to go and

830
00:47:48,519 –> 00:47:51,480
get the kidnappers, mon No, it was for me to

831
00:47:52,280 –> 00:47:54,960
fixing something in the bag of money that came to

832
00:47:55,000 –> 00:47:56,960
the kidnappers. This is not what I’m supposed to shaw

833
00:47:56,960 –> 00:47:59,840
in the so media space. But then this time for

834
00:48:00,199 –> 00:48:04,119
to make kids say the way Christs, so that anywhere

835
00:48:04,280 –> 00:48:06,199
is going people who know the truth out of the story,

836
00:48:06,599 –> 00:48:08,239
so that they will stopped believing.

837
00:48:08,320 –> 00:48:10,440

Speaker 7: When they got to the push, they said, the kidnappers

870
00:49:41,079 –> 00:49:44,119
did not count the money to know that it is

871
00:49:44,159 –> 00:49:48,239
about twenty million ere or below twenty million ere. If

872
00:49:48,280 –> 00:49:50,880
you have countered that money, that money will be twenty

873
00:49:50,920 –> 00:49:54,719
millionaire because what we did, what we did was what

874
00:49:55,360 –> 00:49:56,199
we were supposed to do.

875
00:49:56,760 –> 00:49:58,239
Speaker 4: Now they don’t.

876
00:49:58,639 –> 00:50:00,960
Speaker 7: They only saw that the money was but they did

877
00:50:01,000 –> 00:50:04,320
not carry money. It was the same guy, Thank good,

878
00:50:04,360 –> 00:50:07,639
he was there with my driver who confirmed everything. It

879
00:50:07,840 –> 00:50:09,519
was the same guy that came out and raised a

880
00:50:09,599 –> 00:50:12,719
lamp that it was what I did that made them

881
00:50:12,760 –> 00:50:20,199
to help the guy. Now, listen, kidnappers, this kidnappers with

882
00:50:20,880 –> 00:50:23,559

884
00:50:28,920 –> 00:50:30,440
to they count him bundos.

885
00:50:31,239 –> 00:50:35,639
Speaker 4: So what we did was they wouldn’t have even noticed

886
00:50:36,239 –> 00:50:37,039
anything at all.

887
00:50:38,400 –> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 7: They didn’t have noticed editing that we did our job

888
00:50:40,559 –> 00:50:44,480
perfectly well, and they took the money there was not counted.

889
00:50:45,000 –> 00:50:47,599
Now listen, now it was not only this mon they

890
00:50:47,639 –> 00:50:50,440

892
00:50:53,559 –> 00:50:58,079

894
00:51:00,440 –> 00:51:03,239

895
00:51:03,239 –> 00:51:05,599
a family went also to pay us again to kidnappers

896
00:51:05,639 –> 00:51:08,079

897
00:51:08,119 –> 00:51:11,119
they got there, the kilappers and they don’t release the man.

898
00:51:11,840 –> 00:51:14,800
So brought this start. This one and this one were

899
00:51:14,840 –> 00:51:19,199
taken back to the bush and the woman was That

900
00:51:19,360 –> 00:51:22,920
was what inspired So while I was in custody in

901
00:51:23,119 –> 00:51:28,360
the name, I saw young people. They readied the arrested

902
00:51:28,519 –> 00:51:31,719
young guys, thread them to the self. They said for here.

903
00:51:31,800 –> 00:51:35,679
The same person that paid rans that arrested him, was

904
00:51:35,800 –> 00:51:39,920
arrested in arrested them with gone, not only him, many

905
00:51:39,960 –> 00:51:44,760
of them. And suddenly they released this guy, the same

906
00:51:44,800 –> 00:51:48,159
guy that went to pay this ransom that the other

907
00:51:48,320 –> 00:51:50,320
came from the police that they should let him go.

908
00:51:50,760 –> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 4: They released him, and I was the saved with them.

909
00:51:53,920 –> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 7: In fact, when they brought them to myself, they quickly

910
00:51:59,000 –> 00:51:59,440
changed this.

911
00:51:59,800 –> 00:52:04,519
Speaker 4: This people from myself that self immediately because.

912
00:52:04,440 –> 00:52:06,800
Speaker 7: They knew that those guys they have you know me,

913
00:52:07,280 –> 00:52:10,079
they turned them for myself to hound their self. I

914
00:52:10,199 –> 00:52:13,519
was surprised. Now if what just you don’t see what

915
00:52:13,599 –> 00:52:15,840
this boy is saying. Yet he said, look at him

916
00:52:15,840 –> 00:52:16,559
celebrity when.

917
00:52:16,400 –> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 4: Your freedom like nobody.

918
00:52:25,119 –> 00:52:27,639
Speaker 5: Not? So thank you.

919
00:52:31,000 –> 00:52:32,119
Speaker 4: They did not charge this boy.

920
00:52:32,320 –> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 7: And what that wants to cost this for the same

921
00:52:35,519 –> 00:52:38,079
guy who took the money to brand the kidnappers, the

922
00:52:38,159 –> 00:52:43,679
same guy they brought the bush was baking that morning,

923
00:52:43,840 –> 00:52:48,199
was twenty million there, twenty millionaire. I was I supposed

924
00:52:48,800 –> 00:52:53,639
in that park twenty millionaire, twenty millionaire. If the ki

925
00:52:53,679 –> 00:52:57,159
knappers counted that money at that first stage, you can’t

926
00:52:57,159 –> 00:53:03,639
twenty millionaire or the social media issues, then I increase

927
00:53:03,719 –> 00:53:05,440
Now the answer the family ship, thinking.

928
00:53:05,559 –> 00:53:09,400
Speaker 4: To Samantha, so my brothers, I did my best. I

929
00:53:09,519 –> 00:53:14,079
did my best. I didn’t do anything wrong in that matter.

930
00:53:14,440 –> 00:53:17,920
I did everything. What there are things I was to say?

931
00:53:19,480 –> 00:53:22,639
How are the money? Everything that happens? I will say it.

932
00:53:23,960 –> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 7: Because I say it, I think that ends my work too.

933
00:53:27,000 –> 00:53:29,440
I won’t be doing anything for anybody again. But I

934
00:53:29,519 –> 00:53:32,159
