1
00:00:00,080 –> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: I am really shocked by the way some unpatriotic Nigerians

2
00:00:03,560 –> 00:00:07,440
have gone on social media misrepresenting Isho Speed’s visit to

3
00:00:07,519 –> 00:00:10,359
Nigeria and using it to project a negative image of

4
00:00:10,439 –> 00:00:13,679
their very own country while attempting to spoil what was

5
00:00:13,679 –> 00:00:17,679
a good narrative of a very successful visit. First of all,

6
00:00:18,079 –> 00:00:21,480
Isho Speed never said or implied that Nigeria is Smelli.

7
00:00:22,199 –> 00:00:25,800
The young man perhaps achieved his most successful stream during

8
00:00:25,839 –> 00:00:29,679
his African tour in Nigeria, reaching a milestone of fifty

9
00:00:29,719 –> 00:00:34,159
million YouTube subscribers whilst in our dearly beloved country. He

10
00:00:34,280 –> 00:00:37,560
is the first black streamer to achieve that milestone, and

11
00:00:37,640 –> 00:00:42,079
it occurred in Nigeria, boosted by Nigerian subscribers appreciative of

12
00:00:42,079 –> 00:00:46,640
his visit. What these few unpatriotic Nigerians who have a

13
00:00:46,679 –> 00:00:50,320
grudge against their own country fed by a separatist agenda,

14
00:00:50,719 –> 00:00:53,399
have done is take a screenshot of a particular stream

15
00:00:53,479 –> 00:00:57,119
where mister Darren Jason Watkins Junior made of face for

16
00:00:57,159 –> 00:00:59,719
a few seconds, which he often does all over the

17
00:00:59,759 –> 00:01:04,560
world world. Upon citing something interesting and peculiar using that

18
00:01:04,640 –> 00:01:08,239
snap shot, they painted a false narrative claiming that Legos

19
00:01:08,280 –> 00:01:12,159
is Smellian, but Darren Jason Watkins Junior aka is Show

20
00:01:12,200 –> 00:01:15,359
Speed did not enjoy his time there and found nothing

21
00:01:15,439 –> 00:01:19,920
interesting or cultural to do. Sadly, their claims have gone

22
00:01:19,920 –> 00:01:23,719
wildly viral. In fact, as evidenced by his streams and

23
00:01:23,799 –> 00:01:27,840
media coverage, Isho Speed had perhaps the most eventful moments

24
00:01:27,840 –> 00:01:31,120
of his speed As Africa tour in Nigeria, which is

25
00:01:31,120 –> 00:01:33,879
why he chose to spend his twenty first birthday in

26
00:01:33,920 –> 00:01:37,519
our country. He drew his biggest crowds here and was

27
00:01:37,519 –> 00:01:40,959
so impressed by that that he testified about it. He

28
00:01:41,040 –> 00:01:45,959
had gastronomical and cultural experiences, including visiting Freedom Park and

29
00:01:46,040 –> 00:01:51,480
eating the world famous Nigerian Joloff rice, which he raved about. Thereafter,

30
00:01:51,920 –> 00:01:55,079
he had a belated Debty December moment by interacting with

31
00:01:55,200 –> 00:01:58,760
street dances in a carnival like manner and had intermittent

32
00:01:58,840 –> 00:02:02,879
encounters and conversation with street performers, including a man whose

33
00:02:02,879 –> 00:02:06,439
physical strength he celebrated after attempting and failing to match

34
00:02:06,480 –> 00:02:11,360
his iron bending skills. Isho Speed also enjoyed Nigerian cature

35
00:02:11,439 –> 00:02:14,599
when he got to wear the special Nigerian hat known

36
00:02:14,639 –> 00:02:17,759
as a Feeler, made in Nigeria, from entirely from maid

37
00:02:17,879 –> 00:02:22,479
in Nigeria fabric, something that I have been promoting worldwide.

38
00:02:22,919 –> 00:02:26,599
His decision to blend in culturally with Nigerians through fashion

39
00:02:26,680 –> 00:02:29,520
made him so excited that he asked street vendors and

40
00:02:29,520 –> 00:02:34,560
onlookers whether he looked Nigerian. And on his twenty first birthday,

41
00:02:34,879 –> 00:02:38,919
Isho Speed was surrounded by school children in their school uniforms,

42
00:02:38,960 –> 00:02:42,439
singing the famous Happy Birthday song to him, almost bringing

43
00:02:42,520 –> 00:02:46,680
him to tears. At Freedom Park, Isho Speed interacted with

44
00:02:46,800 –> 00:02:50,639
various Legos street performers who taught the quick learner several

45
00:02:50,719 –> 00:02:54,240
dance steps particularly suited to the Nigerian music genre of

46
00:02:54,280 –> 00:02:58,360
afrobeats that has taken the world by storm. Isho Speed

47
00:02:58,400 –> 00:03:01,439
then visited the Nike Art gasp in LeKi, where the

48
00:03:01,479 –> 00:03:05,479
management fated him and gifted him a traditional Lukumi yoruber outfit,

49
00:03:05,800 –> 00:03:09,960
which left him in awe. Mister Watkins next met Afrobead’s

50
00:03:09,960 –> 00:03:13,599
singers alat Adibile, who surprised him with a birthday cake,

51
00:03:13,960 –> 00:03:16,800
prompting Isho Speed to shockingly reveal that that was the

52
00:03:16,840 –> 00:03:20,919
first birthday cake he had ever received. Hard to believe

53
00:03:21,280 –> 00:03:24,000
his time in Nigeria has become one of the most

54
00:03:24,000 –> 00:03:27,280
discussed pop culture moments of the year so far, and

55
00:03:27,360 –> 00:03:30,039
he was surpleased with Nigeria that one of the first things.

56
00:03:30,039 –> 00:03:33,840
Abu bakh Malami a former Minister of Justice and Attorney

57
00:03:33,879 –> 00:03:36,759
General of the Federation who was in office from November

58
00:03:36,800 –> 00:03:40,120
twenty fifteen till May twenty twenty three, when the then

59
00:03:40,280 –> 00:03:44,360
President Mohammadu Buhari completed his eight years tenure in office,

60
00:03:44,680 –> 00:03:50,360
under which courts of competent jurisdiction granted several detained Nigerian’s bail,

61
00:03:50,479 –> 00:03:53,840
but the Buhari government refused to release them and even

62
00:03:53,919 –> 00:03:56,840
re arrested some of them after they had perfected their

63
00:03:56,879 –> 00:04:01,199
bail conditions. The then Minister of Justice, Bubakhar Malami, who

64
00:04:01,280 –> 00:04:05,319
was saddled with the responsibility of protecting citizens’ rights, came

65
00:04:05,360 –> 00:04:09,199
out openly and apparently justified the violations of court orders

66
00:04:09,240 –> 00:04:12,960
by the then Buhari led government, and during the administration

67
00:04:13,120 –> 00:04:18,519
of President Mohammadu Buhari, Abubakar Malami frequently defended the actions

68
00:04:18,560 –> 00:04:21,639
of the government’s refusal to obey court’s orders of bail

69
00:04:21,759 –> 00:04:26,319
granted to high profile individuals by asserting that national security

70
00:04:26,439 –> 00:04:30,399
and public interest superseded individual rights. Some of the high

71
00:04:30,480 –> 00:04:35,439
profile individuals included Colonel Sambo Duasuki, the former National Security

72
00:04:35,480 –> 00:04:38,920
Adviser in the era of President good Luck A. Beleet Jonathan,

73
00:04:38,959 –> 00:04:42,240
who was held for four years from December twenty fifteen

74
00:04:42,360 –> 00:04:46,240
to December twenty nineteen. Despite being granted bail by at

75
00:04:46,360 –> 00:04:49,879
least four different Nigerian high courts and the echo As Court,

76
00:04:50,199 –> 00:04:53,120
he was repeatedly re arrested by the Department of State

77
00:04:53,199 –> 00:04:58,680
Services the SS immediately after fulfilling bail conditions. Shik Ibrahim

78
00:04:58,720 –> 00:05:02,240
el Zakaki and his war wife Zina detained from December

79
00:05:02,279 –> 00:05:06,399
twenty fifteen until they were released in July twenty twenty one.

80
00:05:06,519 –> 00:05:10,600
Were refused bail after federal court declared the attention illegal

81
00:05:10,759 –> 00:05:15,040
in twenty sixteen and ordered their release by January twenty seventeen,

82
00:05:15,399 –> 00:05:19,199
but the government under which Abubakar Malami was a Justice Minister,

83
00:05:19,360 –> 00:05:22,759
did not comply until they were eventually acquitted of all

84
00:05:22,839 –> 00:05:26,399
charges by a Kaduna State High Court in twenty twenty one.

85
00:05:26,839 –> 00:05:30,759
Also Omiele Saware, an activist and a journalist who is

86
00:05:30,839 –> 00:05:34,639
the founder of Sahara Reporters News Media, remained in DSS

87
00:05:34,680 –> 00:05:38,639
custody for several months in twenty nineteen, despite fulfilling bail

88
00:05:38,759 –> 00:05:42,920
conditions set by Justice Hijaeyomurajuku, he was re arrested within

89
00:05:42,959 –> 00:05:46,319
the court room just twenty four hours after a temporary release.

90
00:05:47,079 –> 00:05:51,079
Nandi Ikanu, the convicted and jailed Indigenous People of Biafra

91
00:05:51,399 –> 00:05:55,439
IPOB leader, was refused bail during his initial trial in

92
00:05:55,519 –> 00:05:59,959
twenty fifteen. President Buhari then publicly stated during a media

93
00:06:00,199 –> 00:06:03,079
chat that Karanu, among others, would not be allowed to

94
00:06:03,120 –> 00:06:06,600
go on bail due to the nature of their alleged crimes,

95
00:06:06,959 –> 00:06:11,399
despite court rulings. In addition, was Navy Captain Dadar La Binjo,

96
00:06:11,480 –> 00:06:15,000
who was detained by the Nigeria military from September twenty

97
00:06:15,079 –> 00:06:18,920
eighteen until at least late twenty nineteen, despite a Federal

98
00:06:19,000 –> 00:06:22,040
High Court order for his release. And during these periods

99
00:06:22,319 –> 00:06:27,720
Abubakar Malami provided several justifications for these detentions. Most notably

100
00:06:27,800 –> 00:06:32,000
during his twenty nineteen ministerial screening, Malami stated that the

101
00:06:32,000 –> 00:06:35,040
Office of the AGF is meant to protect the public

102
00:06:35,079 –> 00:06:39,240
interest and where the individual interest conflicts with the public interest,

103
00:06:39,639 –> 00:06:44,199
the interest of one hundred eighty million Nigerians must naturally prevail.

104
00:06:44,360 –> 00:06:47,920
He cited the Supreme Court case of Asari Dokubo versus

105
00:06:48,079 –> 00:06:52,879
Federal Republic of Nigeria, arguing it established that national security

106
00:06:52,920 –> 00:06:57,240
could supersede personal liberty in specific contexts and when Dusuki

107
00:06:57,279 –> 00:07:00,680
and s’war were finally released in December twenty nine, Nigeria

108
00:07:00,800 –> 00:07:04,160
military authority has confirmed the death of five soldiers and

109
00:07:04,240 –> 00:07:07,519
one police officer in an ambush launched by terrorists on

110
00:07:07,639 –> 00:07:11,759
Monday at Giddenwagny area of Zamfara State. The incident may

111
00:07:11,800 –> 00:07:14,680
be a reminder of incessant cases of high rates of

112
00:07:14,800 –> 00:07:18,879
Nigeria losing its soldiers and other security operatives in ambush,

113
00:07:19,360 –> 00:07:22,399
especially as observed as a worsening situation in the year

114
00:07:22,439 –> 00:07:25,720
twenty twenty five, with the ambush of army barracks and

115
00:07:25,800 –> 00:07:28,560
killing of the men of the Armed Forces of Nigeria

116
00:07:29,000 –> 00:07:32,240
AFN by terrorists in large number began as early as

117
00:07:32,319 –> 00:07:36,040
January twenty twenty five. It may be recalled that in

118
00:07:36,120 –> 00:07:39,920
January twenty twenty five, terrorists launched an attack on the

119
00:07:39,959 –> 00:07:44,240
one hundred forty nine battalion in Malam Forturi, Borno State,

120
00:07:44,600 –> 00:07:48,079
leading to the killing of over twenty military personnel, including

121
00:07:48,079 –> 00:07:52,399
a battalion commander and senior offices within the first quarter.

122
00:07:52,839 –> 00:07:55,600
A careful review of news reports showed that more than

123
00:07:55,639 –> 00:07:59,160
one hundred Nigeria soldiers were reportedly killed in the first

124
00:07:59,240 –> 00:08:03,879
quarter of twenty five by terrorists, mostly in ambush. In

125
00:08:03,959 –> 00:08:08,199
June twenty twenty five, terrorists attacks on three army bases

126
00:08:08,240 –> 00:08:11,480
in central and northwestern Nigeria resulted in the killing of

127
00:08:11,519 –> 00:08:15,959
at least seventeen soldiers, and in September twenty twenty five,

128
00:08:16,360 –> 00:08:19,720
a major ambush on the Barga Meidaguri Road was reported

129
00:08:20,079 –> 00:08:22,879
where at least forty soldiers were killed and sixty five

130
00:08:23,000 –> 00:08:27,319
went missing, while in October twenty twenty five, at least

131
00:08:27,319 –> 00:08:30,199
four soldiers were killed in a Boco Haram ambush in

132
00:08:30,279 –> 00:08:34,279
Borno State, while another encounter in Campche resulted in one

133
00:08:34,320 –> 00:08:38,240
soldier killed. And by November twenty twenty five, the Nigerian

134
00:08:38,360 –> 00:08:41,440
Army confirmed the death of Brigadier General Musa Uber and

135
00:08:41,480 –> 00:08:46,039
two other soldiers following an ambush by is WAP terrorists

136
00:08:46,080 –> 00:08:49,759
near Wajeroco town in Borno State, which some local media

137
00:08:49,879 –> 00:08:53,639
reported that several soldiers were killed during the ambush. Even

138
00:08:53,720 –> 00:08:56,440
some of the local media stated that those who escaped

139
00:08:56,440 –> 00:08:59,600
the ambush, like the Brigadier General, were traced and killed

140
00:08:59,639 –> 00:09:02,799
by the terrorists, apparently after hours of no rescue or

141
00:09:02,919 –> 00:09:08,039
prompt reinforcement by the Nigeria military authority. According to Captain

142
00:09:08,120 –> 00:09:12,799
David Adawasi, the Media Information Officer of Operation Fansan Yama,

143
00:09:13,240 –> 00:09:15,960
the five soldiers and the police officer were killed while

144
00:09:16,000 –> 00:09:19,519
the troops were returning from a successful operation and responding

145
00:09:19,559 –> 00:09:22,480
to a distress call of terrorists attack in a community

146
00:09:22,600 –> 00:09:27,600
in Zamfara State. In his words, Captain David ad Orsi said,

147
00:09:28,039 –> 00:09:33,840
troops of Operation Fansan Yama opf Y joined Tasks Forced Northwest,

148
00:09:34,320 –> 00:09:39,600
have demonstrated exceptional bravery, professionalism and resilience following a terrorist

149
00:09:39,600 –> 00:09:43,240
ambush along the Bingi keken Wadge Gussar Road in Zamfara

150
00:09:43,360 –> 00:09:47,200
State on the nineteenth of January twenty twenty six. The

151
00:09:47,279 –> 00:09:51,600
ambush followed a series of successful offensive operations conducted from

152
00:09:51,679 –> 00:09:55,720
seventeen to the nineteenth of January twenty twenty six, when

153
00:09:55,759 –> 00:09:59,279
troops of Sector two opf Y, in conjunction with the

154
00:09:59,320 –> 00:10:03,200
opf W Bimobile Strike Team and DEA Tactical Support Team,

155
00:10:03,559 –> 00:10:08,399
carried out co ordinated raids, ambushes and fighting patrols across Burna,

156
00:10:08,480 –> 00:10:13,279
Megaji and Anchor areas of Zamfara State. During these operations,

157
00:10:13,639 –> 00:10:19,559
three suspects Ico Quaquatawa, ibrahem Dan Mussulu and Macau Lambergoma

158
00:10:19,960 –> 00:10:23,440
were arrested, while four terrorists were neutralized and others fled

159
00:10:23,440 –> 00:10:28,279
into the forest. Items recovered including one PKT machine gun

160
00:10:28,639 –> 00:10:32,440
five a K forty. Supeter Obi, the former Nambra State

00:10:32,519 –> 00:10:35,879
Governor and last presidential candidate of the Labour Party in

162
00:10:35,919 –> 00:10:39,799
the Nigeria twenty twenty three general elections, has insisted that

163

the three brothers among the twelve persons that died as

164
00:10:42,879 –> 00:10:46,039
a result of fire that engulfed the twenty five story

165

building of Great Nigeria Insurance House Plaza at Balagoon Market

166

00:11:05,879 –> 00:11:10,519
Kasmir Nabukomer two aged thirty nine and mister Collins Kenechukuoma

171
00:11:10,519 –> 00:11:14,639
two aged thirty seven, for days sent distressing police for

172
00:11:14,720 –> 00:11:17,360
help while trapped in the building, yet there were no

173
00:11:17,440 –> 00:11:21,200
emergency services to rescue them. Several days passed in the

174
00:11:21,279 –> 00:11:25,200
rubble before their bodies were finally recovered. Several days of

175
00:11:25,279 –> 00:11:28,200
unanswered calls of a system that failed and at the

176
00:11:28,240 –> 00:11:31,879
moment they needed it most. Peter Obi made this statement

177
00:11:32,000 –> 00:11:35,600
after attending the burial ceremony of the three siblings held

178
00:11:35,639 –> 00:11:40,240
at Buzoqua community in Ihiala Local Government area of Anambra’s

179
00:11:40,279 –> 00:11:44,320
State on Wednesday. After Legos State Government, through the Office

180
00:11:44,360 –> 00:11:48,279
of the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Glengoromatoso, in a

181
00:11:48,320 –> 00:11:52,559
statement issued on January first, twenty twenty six, stated that

182
00:11:52,639 –> 00:11:55,600
as soon as the fire alarm was received on the day,

183
00:11:56,039 –> 00:11:59,240
the government deployed teams of first responders to the scene,

184
00:11:59,519 –> 00:12:03,480
including the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Lagos State

185
00:12:03,519 –> 00:12:09,320
Emergency Management Agency, Legos State Ambulance Services, security Agencies and

186
00:12:09,399 –> 00:12:13,200
other emergency and safety units. But this statement from the

187
00:12:13,240 –> 00:12:16,080
Lagos State government appears not to be in line with

188
00:12:16,120 –> 00:12:19,799
an eyewitness account. A resident who spoke with New Central

189
00:12:19,879 –> 00:12:22,559
Television at the scene of the fire incident that a

190
00:12:22,559 –> 00:12:25,480
phone call was made across to a fire service in

191
00:12:25,559 –> 00:12:29,480
Lagos State, but the fire service demanded thirty million niers

192
00:12:29,559 –> 00:12:32,799
service fee before the fire service would respond to the

193
00:12:32,840 –> 00:12:36,559
emergency issue this. The resident added that if the fire

194
00:12:36,639 –> 00:12:40,159
service had responded on time, the entire building would have

195
00:12:40,200 –> 00:12:43,360
been saved, probably with no life lost, because the fire

196
00:12:43,559 –> 00:12:46,320
was only at a single floor when the fire service

197
00:12:46,480 –> 00:12:51,279
was called. According to Punch newspaper, the three siblings died

198
00:12:51,320 –> 00:12:55,320
after being trapped inside the burning high rise building in Lagos,

199
00:12:55,360 –> 00:12:58,919
an incident that shocked residents and reignited concerns over fire

200
00:12:59,039 –> 00:13:02,919
safety and emergency see response in the country. According to

201
00:13:02,960 –> 00:13:07,159
family sources, the intensity of the inferno made rescue efforts

202
00:13:07,159 –> 00:13:11,399
impossible and only ashes were recovered for burial. The burial

203
00:13:11,440 –> 00:13:15,519
brought grief and sorrow to Ihiala community, with residents praying

204
00:13:15,519 –> 00:13:18,679
that their souls find rest and that their family find

205
00:13:18,759 –> 00:13:22,799
strength to pass through this trying time. After the burial,

206
00:13:23,159 –> 00:13:26,039
emotions ran high as the young wives of the deceased,

207
00:13:26,399 –> 00:13:31,159
family members, friends, schoolmates, and sympathizers gathered to bid a

208
00:13:31,200 –> 00:13:36,200
painful farewell. Some attendees, dressed in black and carrying posters

209
00:13:36,200 –> 00:13:39,720
of the three siblings, wept openly, struggling to come to

210
00:13:39,840 –> 00:13:43,080
terms with the tragedy that sent shot waves across the community.

211
00:13:43,840 –> 00:13:47,279
Punch Online had reported on January seventh that the fire

212
00:13:47,399 –> 00:13:49,960
started on the fourth floor and spread to the sixth

213
00:13:50,000 –> 00:13:54,720
before engulfing the remaining floors and adjoining structures. A detached

214
00:13:54,759 –> 00:13:58,399
section of the plaza, estimated at about seven floors high,

215
00:13:58,720 –> 00:14:03,039
collapsed during the inferno. Inspector General of Police IGP, car

216
00:14:03,200 –> 00:14:06,840
Yode Eggbetoken, for days now has refused to speak or

217
00:14:06,879 –> 00:14:10,000
deliberately kept mum after a well known founder of a

218
00:14:10,039 –> 00:14:15,399
private organization, Harrison Gwamershu, who have been assisting Nigeria’s security

219
00:14:15,440 –> 00:14:19,559
operatives with credible and reliable intelligence information that have led

220
00:14:19,600 –> 00:14:22,440
to the killing and arrest of several kidnappers. In a

221
00:14:22,519 –> 00:14:26,639
video statement on Saturday, revealed the complicit of the Nigeria

222
00:14:26,759 –> 00:14:29,919
Police Force in aiding and trying to cover up a

223
00:14:29,960 –> 00:14:33,480
reasonable suspect behind the kidnapping of a couple in the

224
00:14:33,559 –> 00:14:37,480
late days of November twenty twenty five at Avili community

225
00:14:37,639 –> 00:14:41,120
in the Etseco West Local Government area of Edo State,

226
00:14:41,519 –> 00:14:44,320
and the reasonable suspect happened to be the younger brother

227
00:14:44,440 –> 00:14:47,879
of the man who was kidnapped alongside his wife, which

228
00:14:48,320 –> 00:14:50,919
the kidnappers only set free the wife after a sting

229
00:14:51,000 –> 00:14:54,720
operational ransom money of twenty million nyers was given to

230
00:14:54,799 –> 00:14:58,399
the kidnappers, with the Reasonable Suspect fully aware of all

231
00:14:58,559 –> 00:15:02,960
arrangements of the Toxiqus security plans of Harrison Guamashue, but

232
00:15:03,039 –> 00:15:07,120
decided to make the sensitive security information public even when

233
00:15:07,159 –> 00:15:10,480
his elder brother is still held captive by the kidnappers.

234
00:15:10,879 –> 00:15:14,679
The Reasonable Suspect, in a TikTok video live streaming, admitted

235
00:15:14,679 –> 00:15:17,639
that he was actually among the people arrested by soldiers

236
00:15:17,639 –> 00:15:21,360
over an issue he the Reasonable Suspect refused to state.

237
00:15:21,799 –> 00:15:24,799
The Reasonable Suspect, among others, were handed over to the

238
00:15:24,879 –> 00:15:29,960
Nigeria Police Force for the continuation of investigation and possible prosecution,

239
00:15:30,480 –> 00:15:34,759
but according to Harrison Guamashue, immediately police noticed he was

240
00:15:34,799 –> 00:15:38,480
able to recognize the Reasonable Suspect as a family member

241
00:15:38,519 –> 00:15:41,240
who was aware of his security plans and he was

242
00:15:41,279 –> 00:15:43,600
also the one that helped deliver the money to the

243
00:15:43,679 –> 00:15:47,000
kidnappers in the bush. An order within the police authority

244
00:15:47,080 –> 00:15:50,720
came and the Reasonable Suspect was set free immediately, while

245
00:15:50,840 –> 00:15:54,759
others arrested alongside the Reasonable Suspect were remanded to prison.

246
00:15:55,120 –> 00:15:59,279
That aside. Harrison Guamashue, in an exclusive interview with TVC

247
00:15:59,559 –> 00:16:03,039
televis Jon station made available to the public by the

248
00:16:03,039 –> 00:16:07,600
broadcast media on Sunday night, indicated that the Nigeria Police

249
00:16:07,679 –> 00:16:11,279
Force had all the opportunities and chances to rescue the

250
00:16:11,320 –> 00:16:15,720
remaining kidnapped victims, but the police deliberately refused to go

251
00:16:15,759 –> 00:16:18,399
into the bush, with the police saying that the kind

252
00:16:18,440 –> 00:16:22,279
of intelligence information he had provided is an archaic style

253
00:16:22,360 –> 00:16:27,039
of intelligence gathering. This, according to Harrison Guamashue, forced him

254
00:16:27,039 –> 00:16:30,159
to show the police video evidences of how his style

255
00:16:30,279 –> 00:16:35,399
of intelligence has aided successful offensive operation against kidnappers, but

256
00:16:35,879 –> 00:16:40,200
all his explanations went on darias even when for days

257
00:16:40,240 –> 00:16:42,919
the tracking devices he added to the special money he

258
00:16:43,000 –> 00:16:45,879
mixed with the original money given to the kidnappers as

259
00:16:46,000 –> 00:16:49,399
ransom was still showing the exact location of the kidnappers

260
00:16:49,440 –> 00:16:52,480
and other useful information that could have enabled the police

261
00:16:52,559 –> 00:16:56,960
mobilize and rescue the remaining kidnap victims. According to the

262
00:16:57,000 –> 00:17:01,799
reasonable suspect, Harrison Guamashue was acting stually contacted to help capture

263
00:17:01,799 –> 00:17:05,359
the kidnappers. This statement probably indicated that he ought not

264
00:17:05,440 –> 00:17:08,440
to be surprised that some original money was removed from

265
00:17:08,440 –> 00:17:11,720
the bag by Harrison Guamishu except he can explain better

266
00:17:11,759 –> 00:17:15,559
how he expected Harrison Guamashue to capture the kidnappers without

267
00:17:15,599 –> 00:17:20,519
acting intelligently. Harrison Guamashu had said that the reasonable suspect

268
00:17:20,640 –> 00:17:22,680
came with the money with a lot of young people

269
00:17:22,720 –> 00:17:26,680
who were with him in the hotel. According to Harrison Guamashue,

270
00:17:26,960 –> 00:17:31,279
he visited the hotel. The reasonable suspect was Harrison Guamashue,

271
00:17:31,559 –> 00:17:35,480
the founder of a registered private organization assisting the Nigeria

272
00:17:35,559 –> 00:17:39,640
security operatives with credible and reliable intelligence information that have

273
00:17:39,759 –> 00:17:42,440
led to the killing and arrest of several kidnappers in

274
00:17:42,480 –> 00:17:46,559
the West Africa country, especially in the South South geopolitical

275
00:17:46,640 –> 00:17:49,960
zone of Edo and Delta States. In a video statement

276
00:17:50,039 –> 00:17:54,240
issued via his verified social media account a few hours ago,

277
00:17:54,640 –> 00:17:56,839
has said that the family member and the brother of

278
00:17:56,880 –> 00:17:59,519
the kidnapped couple who worked with him and his team

279
00:17:59,599 –> 00:18:03,359
to deliver though the prepared sting operational twenty million nira’s

280
00:18:03,480 –> 00:18:07,200
ransom to the kidnappers has been arrested alongside his gang

281
00:18:07,240 –> 00:18:11,839
members with guns. But according to Harrison Gwamershoe, immediately the

282
00:18:11,920 –> 00:18:15,599
Nigeria Police Force noticed that he could vividly recognize the

283
00:18:15,680 –> 00:18:19,000
suspect as a brother to the kidnapped couple. The Nigeria

284
00:18:19,039 –> 00:18:22,480
Police Force quickly released the suspect and charged other members

285
00:18:22,480 –> 00:18:25,440
of his gang arrested in Auchi to court, even when

286
00:18:25,480 –> 00:18:28,960
the kidnapping involving the suspects brother and wife is generating

287
00:18:29,000 –> 00:18:31,759
more reactions after the wife was set free by the

288
00:18:31,839 –> 00:18:34,920
kidnappers while the husband, who is the suspect’s brother, is

289
00:18:34,960 –> 00:18:38,400
still held in captivity till date by the kidnappers since

290
00:18:38,440 –> 00:18:41,160
both were kidnapped in their home at Avili Village in

291
00:18:41,200 –> 00:18:44,359
the Exico West Local Government area of Edo State in

292
00:18:44,480 –> 00:18:49,559
late days of November twenty twenty five. According to Harrison Guamershoe,

293
00:18:49,839 –> 00:18:53,000
before the ransom money was delivered to the kidnappers inside

294
00:18:53,039 –> 00:18:55,599
the bush, the kidnappers made a phone call to the

295
00:18:55,720 –> 00:18:58,640
arrested and quickly set free suspect to give him the

296
00:18:58,720 –> 00:19:01,880
exact location to draw the money. He was surprised to

297
00:19:01,880 –> 00:19:04,960
hear one of the kidnap victims, the husband still with

298
00:19:05,039 –> 00:19:08,000
the kidnappers, begging his brother, who is currently seen as

299
00:19:08,039 –> 00:19:10,839
the suspect behind the kidnapping, to forgive him if he

300
00:19:10,920 –> 00:19:14,400
has done anything wrong to him. The pleading shocked him,

301
00:19:14,400 –> 00:19:16,920
but Harrison said he decided to act as if he

302
00:19:17,000 –> 00:19:21,480
never heard anything. Harrison Guamneshu added that the suspect he

303
00:19:21,640 –> 00:19:23,960
was the family member that raised the alarm that the

304
00:19:24,079 –> 00:19:27,440
ransom money was of complete, that that was the reason

305
00:19:27,440 –> 00:19:30,359
the kidnappers only released the wife and refused to set

306
00:19:30,400 –> 00:19:34,759
free the husband. Stating clearly that every one who participated

307
00:19:34,759 –> 00:19:37,200
in taking the money to the kidnappers affirmed that the

308
00:19:37,279 –> 00:19:41,279
kidnappers never counted the money. That even if the kidnappers

309
00:19:41,319 –> 00:19:44,440
had counted the money, he prepared the money, specially by

310
00:19:44,480 –> 00:19:47,720
only scattering the tracking devices on the dummy NIRA notes

311
00:19:47,720 –> 00:19:50,359
that looked like original NYRA notes in a manner that

312
00:19:50,480 –> 00:19:54,279
made the whole money complete. The family member who delivered

313
00:19:54,319 –> 00:19:56,920
the ransom to the kidnappers and some of his gangs

314
00:19:56,920 –> 00:20:00,960
were arrested with guns in Auchi by soldiers. The soldiers

315
00:20:00,960 –> 00:20:05,480
handed them over to Auchieria Command. Auchi AIA Command transferred

316
00:20:05,480 –> 00:20:08,519
and to Anti Cultism Unit s C I. D. Benin

317
00:20:08,599 –> 00:20:11,160
and along the side, an order came that the boys

318
00:20:11,240 –> 00:20:14,559
should be released. Other people with him were charged to

319
00:20:14,599 –> 00:20:18,480
court and sent to prison. Same boy was with Usinauci

320
00:20:18,559 –> 00:20:21,839
and knows our plans. I told the police my story,

321
00:20:22,240 –> 00:20:26,559
my statement is with the police. They did nothing. Continuing,

322
00:20:26,960 –> 00:20:31,680
Harrison Guamlishue stated verbatim, thus, good afternoon. My name is
