Speaker 1: One of the most talked about Islamic creatures in Nigeria
2
00:00:03,319 –> 00:00:07,400
who have had photographs with people suspected to be terrorists
3
00:00:07,480 –> 00:00:11,160
terrorizing villages and communities in the northern part of Nigeria.
4
00:00:11,279 –> 00:00:14,839
When he visited the suspected terrorists in their camps inside
5
00:00:14,880 –> 00:00:17,480
forests on the ground of having peace talk with the
6
00:00:17,600 –> 00:00:19,160
armed groups, Shake.
7
00:00:19,079 –> 00:00:20,519
Speaker 2: Armoured Abu bak Armor moved.
8
00:00:20,640 –> 00:00:24,359
Speaker 1: Gumi has described as a terrorist act the United States
9
00:00:24,800 –> 00:00:28,320
U S military action ordered by President Donald Trump that
10
00:00:28,399 –> 00:00:31,640
attacked and killed yet to be ascertained total numbers of
11
00:00:31,679 –> 00:00:36,679
ISIS affiliated Laccuoa terrorists in Socoto State on Christmas Day.
12
00:00:37,119 –> 00:00:39,920
This the Islamic cleric called on the people in the
13
00:00:40,000 –> 00:00:43,840
villages affected by the U S missiles strikes on Thursday
14
00:00:43,920 –> 00:00:48,000
night to post on social media platforms evidences of damages
15
00:00:48,159 –> 00:00:51,840
caused by the U S military action. According to Gumi,
16
00:00:52,000 –> 00:00:54,320
it is in line with the teachers of Islam for
17
00:00:54,439 –> 00:00:57,600
terrorists to be killed, but the killing must be done
18
00:00:57,640 –> 00:01:00,640
by people with the clean and holy hands and not
19
00:01:00,759 –> 00:01:03,880
by another terrorist whose hands sustained with the blood of
20
00:01:03,960 –> 00:01:07,879
hundreds of thousands of innocent children, women and men. Just
21
00:01:08,000 –> 00:01:11,280
recently stressing that the U S involvement in the fight
22
00:01:11,359 –> 00:01:15,079
against terrorism in Nigeria will make the country becomes an
23
00:01:15,200 –> 00:01:18,400
enemy of its neighbors, a theater of war because the
24
00:01:18,439 –> 00:01:21,879
involvement will attract the real anti u S forces into
25
00:01:21,879 –> 00:01:24,599
the West Africa country. And in a manner that looked
26
00:01:24,640 –> 00:01:28,280
like mockery, shake Gumi said, dropping a few bombs here
27
00:01:28,319 –> 00:01:31,280
and there cannot tackle the menace of terror. They need
28
00:01:31,359 –> 00:01:35,079
serious military on the ground, which, if we are serious,
29
00:01:35,480 –> 00:01:38,120
we have enough men to do that. In contrary to
30
00:01:38,159 –> 00:01:41,959
Gumi’s assertions, the Nigeria government, through the Office of the
31
00:01:42,000 –> 00:01:45,519
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuger, said it was President
32
00:01:45,560 –> 00:01:49,079
Bola Ahmed to Enubu on Thursday that gave the US
33
00:01:49,280 –> 00:01:52,319
the approval to carry out the strikes against the terrorists.
34
00:01:52,640 –> 00:01:56,079
But the government’s statement apparently did not go down well
35
00:01:56,120 –> 00:01:59,719
with Omiyele Saware, a human rights activist and the founder
36
00:01:59,760 –> 00:02:03,400
of the Sahara Reporter’s News media, who insisted that it
37
00:02:03,480 –> 00:02:06,040
is evident that the strikes were carried out without the
38
00:02:06,159 –> 00:02:10,360
genuine authority or informed consent of the weaklings masquerading as
39
00:02:10,439 –> 00:02:14,199
government under asswar ju Bolah Ahmed Tenubu, and in a
40
00:02:14,199 –> 00:02:18,280
swift reaction, to Omiele Sware. One of the recently nominated
41
00:02:18,319 –> 00:02:22,840
and confirmed ambassador designates, Reno Omakri, said, I am afraid
42
00:02:22,879 –> 00:02:26,039
I will have to disagree with mister Omile Soare and
43
00:02:26,120 –> 00:02:29,680
others like him who were misinforming the Nigerian public that
44
00:02:29,719 –> 00:02:33,960
the recent actions against terrorists are proof that Nigeria lacks sovereignty.
45
00:02:34,400 –> 00:02:36,840
Such views are indicative of a lack of awareness of
46
00:02:36,919 –> 00:02:40,520
international relations. It is also wrong for mister Sware to
47
00:02:40,560 –> 00:02:44,479
call our government and military week Shaikh Armored Abu back
48
00:02:44,599 –> 00:02:47,879
arm A mood Gumi, in a statement titled the Symbolism
49
00:02:47,919 –> 00:02:51,080
of the U S Stripe, he shared on his verified
50
00:02:51,159 –> 00:02:53,879
Facebook account when he reshared the news link of a
51
00:02:53,919 –> 00:02:58,800
post published by CNN on Friday, said annihilating terrorists is
52
00:02:58,840 –> 00:03:03,240
an Islamic obligation. The prophet Peace be upon him wished
53
00:03:03,280 –> 00:03:07,039
he annihilated them. He said, should I live till they appear,
54
00:03:07,400 –> 00:03:09,159
I would kill them as the killing of the nation
55
00:03:09,319 –> 00:03:13,759
of Ad al Bukhari and Muslim. This said, it should
56
00:03:13,759 –> 00:03:17,240
only be carried out by clean holy hands, not by
57
00:03:17,240 –> 00:03:19,879
another terrorist whose hands are stained with the blood of
58
00:03:19,960 –> 00:03:24,400
hundreds of thousands of innocent children, women and men. Just recently,
59
00:03:25,159 –> 00:03:29,080
This is the mistake Nigeria has made. Terrorists don’t fight
60
00:03:29,199 –> 00:03:32,639
terrorists in truth. They may only kill innocent people and
61
00:03:32,680 –> 00:03:37,240
have ulterior motives behind the drama of fighting terror. As
62
00:03:37,280 –> 00:03:40,199
a principle, no nation should allow its land to be
63
00:03:40,240 –> 00:03:43,639
a theater of war, and no nation should allow its
64
00:03:43,680 –> 00:03:48,560
neighbors to be their enemies. If Nigeria wants military assistance, China,
65
00:03:48,919 –> 00:03:53,120
Turkey and Pakistan can do the job effectively. The U
66
00:03:53,240 –> 00:03:56,520
S involvement in Nigeria will attract the real anti U
67
00:03:56,680 –> 00:04:01,000
S forces, making our land the theater of war. The
68
00:04:01,199 –> 00:04:06,479
user’s involvement in Nigeria, citing coming to protect Christians, will
69
00:04:06,560 –> 00:04:11,280
ultimately polarize our nation and infringe on our sovereignty. Nigeria
70
00:04:11,360 –> 00:04:15,680
should halt all military cooperation with the USA immediately because
71
00:04:15,680 –> 00:04:18,920
of its imperial tendencies worldwide, and seek the help of
72
00:04:19,000 –> 00:04:23,560
those neutral countries mentioned. Nigerians are too educated to be
73
00:04:23,600 –> 00:04:26,480
played with. This is going to be a twenty twenty
74
00:04:26,519 –> 00:04:31,000
seven campaign discourse. Meanwhile, dropping a few bonds here and
75
00:04:31,079 –> 00:04:34,319
there cannot tackle the menace of terror. They need serious
76
00:04:34,360 –> 00:04:37,879
military on the ground, which, if we are serious, we
77
00:04:37,959 –> 00:04:41,000
have enough men to do that. We call on all
78
00:04:41,120 –> 00:04:45,600
villages affected to upload videos and pictures of any casualties involved.
79
00:04:46,360 –> 00:04:49,600
The attacks are symbolic of a harbor geneo crusade war
80
00:04:49,680 –> 00:04:54,360
against Islam. Attack on Socoto where ninety percent a Muslim
81
00:04:54,439 –> 00:04:57,480
with no imminent danger of terror while the real threat
82
00:04:57,519 –> 00:05:00,120
is in Maidaguri and on a Christmas Eve with the
83
00:05:00,160 –> 00:05:04,480
claim of protecting against Christian genocide says a lot. We
84
00:05:04,560 –> 00:05:07,800
believe the terror is manufactured and sustained by the same
85
00:05:07,879 –> 00:05:11,199
people claiming to fight it. A word is enough for
86
00:05:11,240 –> 00:05:16,000
the wise. According to Channel’s Television, the Nigeria government said
87
00:05:16,040 –> 00:05:18,759
President Bola Tanubu gave the go head for the U
88
00:05:18,839 –> 00:05:23,439
S strikes against terrorists in the country’s northwestern region. Foreign
89
00:05:23,480 –> 00:05:28,240
Affairs Minister Yusuf Tugger said this on Friday, hours after
90
00:05:28,279 –> 00:05:31,279
the U S. Department of War and President Donald Trump
91
00:05:31,279 –> 00:05:35,560
announced the North American nation had conducted strikes against the terrorists.
92
00:05:36,360 –> 00:05:39,480
Now that the US is cooperating, we would do it
93
00:05:39,560 –> 00:05:43,399
jointly and we would insure, just as the President emphasized
94
00:05:43,480 –> 00:05:46,319
yesterday before he gave the go ahead, that it must
95
00:05:46,360 –> 00:05:48,920
be made clear that it is a joint operation and
96
00:05:49,000 –> 00:05:51,759
it is not targeting any religion nor simply in the
97
00:05:51,839 –> 00:05:54,800
name of one religion or the other, the minister said
98
00:05:54,839 –> 00:05:59,120
on channel’s television Sunrise Daily. We are a multi religious
99
00:05:59,120 –> 00:06:02,040
country and we are working with partners like the US
100
00:06:02,120 –> 00:06:06,279
to fight terrorism and safeguard the lives and properties of Nigerians.
101
00:06:06,319 –> 00:06:09,600
The minister said. Some have viewed the strikes as a
102
00:06:09,680 –> 00:06:13,680
violation of the country’s territorial integrity, but Tuger says the
103
00:06:13,680 –> 00:06:16,959
federal government would not take any actions that would violate
104
00:06:17,000 –> 00:06:21,560
the country’s sovereignty. Omy Ale Saware reacted and said I
105
00:06:21,680 –> 00:06:24,920
have read reports that the United States government launched at
106
00:06:25,000 –> 00:06:28,839
tax on Nigerian soil on Christmas Day, as announced by
107
00:06:28,879 –> 00:06:32,360
Donald Trump and the U S Secretary of War Peter Haseth,
108
00:06:32,639 –> 00:06:38,160
purportedly targeting terrorist groups within Nigeria. Although the Nigerian government
109
00:06:38,199 –> 00:06:41,319
now claims it was aware and describes the operation as
110
00:06:41,360 –> 00:06:45,439
a joint effort with vague international partners, it is evident
111
00:06:45,480 –> 00:06:48,399
that the strikes were carried out without the genuine authority
112
00:06:48,519 –> 00:06:52,199
or informed consent of the weaklings masquerading as government under
113
00:06:52,240 –> 00:06:58,120
Assawajubola Ahmed Tenubu. My position remains unchanged, judging by the
114
00:06:58,199 –> 00:07:01,040
nature of the confirmed strike on a village in Sokoto.
115
00:07:01,519 –> 00:07:04,360
It is clear that the US President, under whose authority
116
00:07:04,399 –> 00:07:08,720
this operation occurred, neither understands nor genuinely cares about Nigeria
117
00:07:08,839 –> 00:07:13,759
or Nigerians. It is deeply troubling that Nigeria, Africa’s most
118
00:07:13,800 –> 00:07:17,680
populous nation, lacks the capable and sovereign leadership required to
119
00:07:17,759 –> 00:07:21,519
protect its people and its territory. As a result, the
120
00:07:21,600 –> 00:07:24,800
country has been reduced to a bystander while its sovereignty
121
00:07:24,879 –> 00:07:28,199
is violated under the direction of U S President Donald J.
122
00:07:28,399 –> 00:07:28,759
Speaker 2: Trump.
123
00:07:29,480 –> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: I reiterate only true, tested and informed leadership can protect
124
00:07:34,319 –> 00:07:39,240
Nigerian’s not imperilled jaurnedice neo conservatives operating from Washington.
125
00:07:39,319 –> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: D C.
126
00:07:40,560 –> 00:07:45,519
Speaker 1: Reno Omicri, in a statement titled addressing Omiyele Saare’s statements
127
00:07:45,519 –> 00:07:49,319
on Nigeria’s sovereignty, said, I am afraid I will have
128
00:07:49,399 –> 00:07:52,920
to disagree with mister Omiele Sware and others like him
129
00:07:53,199 –> 00:07:56,639
who are misinforming the Nigerian public that the recent actions
130
00:07:56,680 –> 00:08:01,800
against terrorists are proof that Nigeria lacks sovereignty. Such views
131
00:08:01,800 –> 00:08:05,160
are indicative of a lack of awareness of international relations.
132
00:08:05,959 –> 00:08:09,800
Please fact check me. Larger and older nations than Nigeria,
133
00:08:10,240 –> 00:08:12,600
which I would not want to mention out of respect
134
00:08:12,639 –> 00:08:15,480
for these countries and the governments have asked for and
135
00:08:15,560 –> 00:08:20,920
received direct international and foreign military assistance intervention, specifically from
136
00:08:20,959 –> 00:08:25,000
the United States and other countries when dealing with terrorists
137
00:08:25,040 –> 00:08:29,079
operating within their borders, especially when those belligerents are mobile
138
00:08:29,160 –> 00:08:32,879
and have embedded themselves so close to innocent civilian populations
139
00:08:32,919 –> 00:08:35,960
that it would be difficult to use conventional means against
140
00:08:35,960 –> 00:08:40,039
them without harming law abiding citizens. While I would not
141
00:08:40,120 –> 00:08:44,200
want to identify these nations, journalists and interested members of
142
00:08:44,279 –> 00:08:47,200
the public can use Google or other AI tools to
143
00:08:47,320 –> 00:08:50,960
help reveal them. It is also wrong for mister Saware
144
00:08:51,159 –> 00:08:54,840
to call our government and military week for his education.
145
00:08:55,360 –> 00:08:58,200
Mister Sware may want to know that Nigeria has a
146
00:08:58,240 –> 00:09:02,159
better military record than most mens and has decisively brought
147
00:09:02,159 –> 00:09:05,879
peace and stabilized several countries, beginning from the Congo in
148
00:09:05,960 –> 00:09:10,120
nineteen sixty to Tanzania in nineteen sixty four, to Lebanon
149
00:09:10,159 –> 00:09:13,200
in nineteen seventy eight, and then via Ikamogue in the
150
00:09:13,240 –> 00:09:18,759
Mano River Region, Liberia, Sierra Leone, et cetera between nineteen
151
00:09:18,879 –> 00:09:22,519
ninety one and two thousand and six. Our military has
152
00:09:22,559 –> 00:09:27,000
also helped restore democratically elected governments in places like Sautome
153
00:09:27,240 –> 00:09:31,679
and Princeivia and others. When Nigeria’s armed forces intervened in
154
00:09:31,759 –> 00:09:34,639
those nations, they did not tamper with or in any
155
00:09:34,639 –> 00:09:37,840
way weakened the sovereignty of those countries or the governments.
156
00:09:38,679 –> 00:09:42,120
In fact, we were invited either by the countries themselves,
157
00:09:42,440 –> 00:09:47,399
the United Nations or regional bodies. The Nigerian Armed Forces
158
00:09:47,480 –> 00:09:50,840
have a sterling military record as a dependable fighting unit.
159
00:09:51,639 –> 00:09:56,240
In fact, due to their superior training, Nigerian military personnel
160
00:09:56,320 –> 00:10:00,600
have served as chiefs of army staff in other nations. However,
161
00:10:01,039 –> 00:10:03,799
when you are fighting cowardly terrorists that weave in and
162
00:10:03,840 –> 00:10:07,039
out of civilian populations, you need the help of those
163
00:10:07,080 –> 00:10:11,840
with precision targeting capabilities. What mister Sware and others like
164
00:10:11,919 –> 00:10:14,120
him may not be aware of is that no single
165
00:10:14,200 –> 00:10:17,919
nation has ever defeated terror on its own. It takes
166
00:10:17,919 –> 00:10:22,399
international effort. Mister sir War has himself admitted receiving funding
167
00:10:22,480 –> 00:10:26,799
from multiple U S funding agencies. Based on his admission,
168
00:10:27,080 –> 00:10:29,639
should that mean he is a foreign puppet unfit to
169
00:10:29,679 –> 00:10:34,159
aspire to leadership in Nigeria? Of course not if Omielee
170
00:10:34,279 –> 00:10:36,759
sa Ware and others like him have anger over what
171
00:10:36,919 –> 00:10:40,039
has happened, Please let it be directed at the terrorists
172
00:10:40,039 –> 00:10:43,399
and their sponsors who have killed many Nigerians of all
173
00:10:43,440 –> 00:10:47,759
faiths and ethnicities and disrupted communities while preventing honest and
174
00:10:47,840 –> 00:10:52,799
hard working Nigerians from going about their lawful activities. Projecting
175
00:10:52,840 –> 00:10:55,519
anger at anything that will bring relief and succor to
176
00:10:55,559 –> 00:10:59,679
those Nigerians most affected by terror is not patriotic, no
177
00:10:59,720 –> 00:11:02,799
matter how much some try to cloak it in such terms.
178
00:11:03,559 –> 00:11:06,519
The priority is to protect the lives and properties of
179
00:11:06,639 –> 00:11:10,399
Nigerians by any legal and moral means necessary and possible.
180
00:11:11,120 –> 00:11:15,320
If indeed people have any influence at all, that sway
181
00:11:15,360 –> 00:11:17,840
should not be used to cause dissension and turn some
182
00:11:18,000 –> 00:11:22,120
Nigerians against their leaders. Rather, it should be used to
183
00:11:22,120 –> 00:11:25,720
get those terrorists to turn a new leaf, drop their weapons,
184
00:11:25,919 –> 00:11:30,159
embrace peace, and show fidelity to the Nigerian flag and constitution.
185
00:11:31,080 –> 00:11:32,360
May God bless.
186
00:11:32,080 –> 00:11:37,039
Speaker 2: Nigeria Quindi Uni.
187
00:11:39,080 –> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: While many Nigerians were asleep after the twenty twenty five
188
00:11:42,440 –> 00:11:47,200
Christmas celebration, the United States U S warship moved close
189
00:11:47,240 –> 00:11:51,039
and took position in the territorial Africa Waters then launched
190
00:11:51,080 –> 00:11:53,759
missiles at the dead of the night on Thursday into
191
00:11:53,879 –> 00:11:57,759
areas predominantly dominated by the Lacquero were terrorists in the
192
00:11:57,840 –> 00:12:02,000
nigeria north western state of Suans Sokkato, with President Donald
193
00:12:02,039 –> 00:12:05,480
Trump saying many of the terrorists were killed, but the
194
00:12:05,519 –> 00:12:09,080
Islamic State of Arakan Syria ISIS in the West Africa
195
00:12:09,120 –> 00:12:11,639
Province is yet to issue a statement over the air
196
00:12:11,639 –> 00:12:15,240
strikes on the Lacquarawa camps in Sokoto. The armed group
197
00:12:15,279 –> 00:12:19,200
that is affiliated with the Islamic State Sahil Province operating
198
00:12:19,240 –> 00:12:23,279
in Mali, Nijay and the Nigeria Kebi and Sokoto States,
199
00:12:23,320 –> 00:12:27,720
whose activities are mostly observed in five local government areas
200
00:12:27,720 –> 00:12:32,919
of Tangasa, Gudu, Alala, Binji and Salame in Sokato State.
201
00:12:33,399 –> 00:12:37,080
This some residents at Jabo Village in the Tambul local
202
00:12:37,120 –> 00:12:41,559
government area of Sokato State posted videos online to indicate
203
00:12:41,639 –> 00:12:44,799
that some components used in making the missiles fell on
204
00:12:44,879 –> 00:12:47,879
a farmland in the Jabo village. The videos showed a
205
00:12:47,919 –> 00:12:51,440
lot of the villages, mostly younger ones, holding phones with
206
00:12:51,600 –> 00:12:54,840
touch light on recording the scene of the burning parts
207
00:12:54,879 –> 00:12:57,600
of one of the missiles in the farmland, while some
208
00:12:57,679 –> 00:13:00,279
took a closer camera angle shot of some of the
209
00:13:00,360 –> 00:13:05,360
components that have manufacturing inscriptions, dates and brand labels. The
210
00:13:05,559 –> 00:13:08,879
U s Africa Command, in a statement a few hours ago,
211
00:13:09,080 –> 00:13:12,120
said that the direction of the President of the United
212
00:13:12,200 –> 00:13:15,200
States and the Secretary of War, and in co ordination
213
00:13:15,360 –> 00:13:19,960
with Nigerian authorities, U s Africa Command conducted strikes against
214
00:13:19,960 –> 00:13:24,360
ISIS terrorists in Nigeria on December twenty fifth, twenty twenty five,
215
00:13:24,840 –> 00:13:29,480
in Soccato State. President Donald Trump, while announcing the military
216
00:13:29,519 –> 00:13:33,919
action through his Truth social media platform on Thursday night, said,
217
00:13:34,399 –> 00:13:37,639
to night, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the
218
00:13:37,799 –> 00:13:41,519
United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS
219
00:13:41,600 –> 00:13:45,480
terrorist scum in Northwest Nigeria who have been targeting and
220
00:13:45,600 –> 00:13:50,080
viciously killing primarily innocent Christians at levels not seen for
221
00:13:50,159 –> 00:13:54,799
many years and even centuries. I have previously warned these
222
00:13:54,919 –> 00:13:58,240
terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians,
223
00:13:58,600 –> 00:14:01,360
there would be hell to pay, and tonight there was.
224
00:14:02,200 –> 00:14:06,440
The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only
225
00:14:06,480 –> 00:14:10,559
the United States is capable of doing. Under my leadership,
226
00:14:10,799 –> 00:14:14,240
our country will not allow radical Islamic terrorism to prosper
227
00:14:14,960 –> 00:14:18,279
May God bless our military and Merry Christmas to all,
228
00:14:18,559 –> 00:14:21,399
including the dead terrorists, of which there will be many
229
00:14:21,440 –> 00:14:25,840
more if their slaughter of Christians continues. Peter Hegsath, the
230
00:14:26,000 –> 00:14:29,440
U S Secretary of War, reiterated the U S president
231
00:14:29,519 –> 00:14:33,559
announcement in a tweet, saying the President was clear last month,
232
00:14:33,879 –> 00:14:38,080
the killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria and elsewhere must end.
233
00:14:38,840 –> 00:14:42,360
The Department of War is always ready, so isis found
234
00:14:42,399 –> 00:14:47,240
out tonight on Christmas more to come. Grateful for Nigerian
235
00:14:47,279 –> 00:14:52,320
government support and co operation. Merry Christmas. On November twenty fifth,
236
00:14:52,360 –> 00:14:57,039
twenty twenty five, Peter Hegsath had said, yes, sir, the
237
00:14:57,120 –> 00:15:02,200
killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria and anywhere must end immediately.
238
00:15:02,919 –> 00:15:06,480
The Department of War is preparing for action. Either the
239
00:15:06,559 –> 00:15:10,639
Nigerian government protects Christians or we will kill the Islamic
240
00:15:10,720 –> 00:15:15,600
terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. Bulama Bukati, a
241
00:15:15,679 –> 00:15:19,480
lawyer and social commentator, treated in reaction that I’m pleased
242
00:15:19,480 –> 00:15:22,080
to see that President Trump appears to have listened to
243
00:15:22,159 –> 00:15:25,480
our concerns back in November and worked with the Nigerian
244
00:15:25,519 –> 00:15:30,200
government rather than acting unilaterally. The US. Their strikes reportedly
245
00:15:30,240 –> 00:15:33,960
took place in Socoto State, suggesting they targeted the lacquer
246
00:15:34,000 –> 00:15:38,279
of a group which has become increasingly lethal. Strikes against
247
00:15:38,279 –> 00:15:41,080
the group are a welcome development as they can help
248
00:15:41,120 –> 00:15:46,320
degrade its leadership and logistical capacity. This is especially positive
249
00:15:46,399 –> 00:15:49,279
given that the operation was carried out with the consent
250
00:15:49,399 –> 00:15:53,480
and cooperation of the Nigerian government. We had reported in
251
00:15:53,559 –> 00:15:56,960
early November twenty twenty five that President Donald Trump of
252
00:15:57,000 –> 00:16:00,039
the United States of America has placed us so WE
253
00:16:00,159 –> 00:16:03,919
jison read alert for possible war in Nigeria. According to
254
00:16:04,000 –> 00:16:07,399
President Trump, the U S Department of War should prepare
255
00:16:07,559 –> 00:16:11,159
U S troops for possible military action in Nigeria. If
256
00:16:11,200 –> 00:16:14,919
the Nigerian government continued to allow the killing of Christians,
257
00:16:15,360 –> 00:16:18,120
the U S troops may very well go into that
258
00:16:18,159 –> 00:16:21,840
now disgraced country guns a blazing to completely wipe out
259
00:16:21,840 –> 00:16:25,679
the Islamic terrorists who were committing these horrible atrocities. This
260
00:16:26,399 –> 00:16:30,200
President Trump issued on Saturday evening, in line with Greenwich
261
00:16:30,279 –> 00:16:34,720
Meridian time, after President Bolla Hmed Tanubu personally signed a
262
00:16:34,799 –> 00:16:39,159
statement rejecting trump earlier claim on Friday that Christians are
263
00:16:39,159 –> 00:16:43,519
being targeted and killed in Nigeria. Although President Bola armed
264
00:16:43,600 –> 00:16:46,720
to Nubu disagreed with Trump, who had described the high
265
00:16:46,799 –> 00:16:50,559
level of insecurity in Nigeria as a religious war by
266
00:16:50,759 –> 00:16:55,679
Islamic terrorists against Christians, but some Nigerians quickly took to
267
00:16:55,720 –> 00:16:59,399
the comment section of President Buller Armed Tanubu post on
268
00:16:59,679 –> 00:17:03,120
x social media platform and pasted a screenshot of a
269
00:17:03,120 –> 00:17:08,119
tweet published by President Bola Hmed Tanubu on January twenty ninth,
270
00:17:08,279 –> 00:17:13,480
twenty fourteen, wherein President Bola Hmed Tanubu apparently had long
271
00:17:13,559 –> 00:17:17,839
accepted and agreed that the insecurity in Nigeria is possibly
272
00:17:17,880 –> 00:17:22,720
a religious war against Christians in the West Africa country verbatim.
273
00:17:22,759 –> 00:17:26,880
In the tweet, Tanubu said, the slaughtering of Christian worshipers
274
00:17:27,000 –> 00:17:30,400
is strongly condemnable. It calls to question the competence of
275
00:17:30,480 –> 00:17:35,000
Jonathan then President of Nigeria to protect Nigerians. This old
276
00:17:35,039 –> 00:17:39,240
statement by President Bola Hmed Tanubu indicated that President Donald
277
00:17:39,240 –> 00:17:42,079
Trump of the United States of America may not be
278
00:17:42,119 –> 00:17:45,640
the first person to describe the insecurity in Nigeria as
279
00:17:45,680 –> 00:17:49,720
a religious war against Christian communities in the West Africa country.
280
00:17:54,000 –> 00:17:59,559
Quindi in an effort to challenge and prove wrong the
281
00:17:59,599 –> 00:18:04,039
statement of Harrison Guamershue, a well known civilian volunteer assisting
282
00:18:04,160 –> 00:18:08,119
Nigeria security operatives with intelligence information that has led to
283
00:18:08,119 –> 00:18:11,400
the arrest and killing of suspected kidnappers in gun battle
284
00:18:11,799 –> 00:18:15,920
that he Harrison Gwamershue was never arrested or charged to
285
00:18:16,000 –> 00:18:19,640
court by the Nigeria Police Force over the five point
286
00:18:19,880 –> 00:18:23,720
four million nyers he allegedly removed from the twenty million
287
00:18:23,839 –> 00:18:27,960
nyrus ransom he was contracted to handover to the kidnappers
288
00:18:28,039 –> 00:18:31,240
for the release and rescue of the married couple kidnapped
289
00:18:31,279 –> 00:18:35,359
in Avilli community in the Etxico West Local Government area
290
00:18:35,440 –> 00:18:39,240
of Edo State. In late November twenty twenty five, a
291
00:18:39,319 –> 00:18:44,599
leading Nigeria social media influencer and human rights activist, Martin’s
292
00:18:44,640 –> 00:18:48,359
Vincent tots aka Veridartmann, on Tuesday night, took to his
293
00:18:48,480 –> 00:18:52,720
social media pages and presented an apparent questionable court document,
294
00:18:53,160 –> 00:18:57,359
probably with malicious intent to manipulate and mislead unsuspecting members
295
00:18:57,400 –> 00:19:01,119
of the public inadat to malign the character of Harrison Guamnaschute.
296
00:19:01,279 –> 00:19:04,720
This in the court document presented by Veri Duckman the
297
00:19:04,799 –> 00:19:07,799
alleged charge serial numbers were covered with the colored ink.
298
00:19:08,279 –> 00:19:11,119
No date of court sitting was written on the court document.
299
00:19:11,480 –> 00:19:14,839
The document indicated that the alleged three count charges were
300
00:19:14,880 –> 00:19:18,599
drafted and signed on the eighteenth of December twenty twenty five,
301
00:19:18,960 –> 00:19:22,079
a day before Harrison Guamashue was asked to go home
302
00:19:22,160 –> 00:19:26,240
from the police custody on December nineteenth, twenty twenty five,
303
00:19:26,480 –> 00:19:30,039
while awaiting the advice of the Department of Public Prosecutor
304
00:19:30,359 –> 00:19:34,039
DPP on the matter, and the apparent fraudulent court document
305
00:19:34,160 –> 00:19:37,319
did not show the officer or the person responsible for
306
00:19:37,400 –> 00:19:41,680
the court count charges, and Veredarkman, apparently in a manipulative manner,
307
00:19:41,720 –> 00:19:44,319
did not show the full signature and any name of
308
00:19:44,359 –> 00:19:49,200
the officer who authored the alleged court charges. Veredartmann claimed
309
00:19:49,200 –> 00:19:52,880
in the video that the prosecutor wanted Harrison Guamnaschute jailed
310
00:19:52,920 –> 00:19:55,960
for six months, but the judge he identified as Justice
311
00:19:56,000 –> 00:20:00,599
Ettinosa Adcombie, allegedly on her personal consideration because of the
312
00:20:00,680 –> 00:20:04,039
Chrisman and New Year’s season and public intervention, decided to
313
00:20:04,079 –> 00:20:08,680
grant Harrison Guamashue bail. Harrison Guamashue says he was never
314
00:20:08,799 –> 00:20:11,799
arrested by the police or charged to court, as speculated
315
00:20:11,839 –> 00:20:14,920
in the public spaces over the five point four million
316
00:20:15,000 –> 00:20:18,119
niras he allegedly removed out of the twenty million nyiras
317
00:20:18,240 –> 00:20:21,000
ransom he was given to hand over to kidnappers and
318
00:20:21,079 –> 00:20:23,519
as well apparently used the money as a bait to
319
00:20:23,640 –> 00:20:26,680
stage sting operation for the release and rescue of the
320
00:20:26,799 –> 00:20:30,559
husband and wife simply identified as mister and missus Ibraheen
321
00:20:30,640 –> 00:20:34,440
kidnapped in Avilli community in the Exico West Local government
322
00:20:34,559 –> 00:20:38,559
area of Edo State, which generated public reactions after the
323
00:20:38,640 –> 00:20:41,720
kidnappers set free the wife and kept the husband in
324
00:20:41,799 –> 00:20:44,359
captivity on the ground that the money given to them
325
00:20:44,440 –> 00:20:47,599
was not complete, and some persons who have access to
326
00:20:47,640 –> 00:20:51,680
the apparent sensitive security information went public to create an
327
00:20:51,720 –> 00:20:55,759
impression as if Harrison Gwamnoshue stole part of the ransom money,
328
00:20:56,119 –> 00:20:59,000
even when Harrison Guamashue explained to them that it is
329
00:20:59,119 –> 00:21:02,319
part of his opera rational procedures to remove some cash
330
00:21:02,359 –> 00:21:06,039
from the ransom money. His explanation apparently went on deaf
331
00:21:06,039 –> 00:21:09,240
ears and people who may be best described as mischief
332
00:21:09,279 –> 00:21:13,119
makers took advantage of the issue to call Harrison Guamnoshue
333
00:21:13,200 –> 00:21:16,720
names and reopen his alleged past deeds in a prejudiced
334
00:21:16,759 –> 00:21:19,920
manner to cast dispersions on him, even when they knew that.
335
00:21:20,000 –> 00:21:23,759
Harrison Guamnashu has a long history with video evidences of
336
00:21:23,839 –> 00:21:27,759
assisting security operatives to rescue kidnapped victims and in some
337
00:21:27,960 –> 00:21:31,119
cases the total money paid as ransom were recovered and
338
00:21:31,160 –> 00:21:34,680
returned to the victim’s families and the sting operation usually
339
00:21:34,799 –> 00:21:37,680
leads to the killing and arrest of the suspected kidnappers.
340
00:21:38,039 –> 00:21:41,759
This according to Harrison Guamoshu in a statement he issued
341
00:21:41,799 –> 00:21:45,240
through his verified Facebook accounts some hours ago, he was
342
00:21:45,279 –> 00:21:48,599
the one who personally submitted himself voluntarily to the Edo
343
00:21:48,680 –> 00:21:52,680
State Command of the Nigeria Police Force to enable the
344
00:21:52,680 –> 00:21:55,720
police investigate his action, that he never had the intention
345
00:21:55,880 –> 00:21:58,559
of stealing the money and his action of removing some
346
00:21:58,720 –> 00:22:02,559
money from the ransom which part of his usual operational procedures,
347
00:22:03,039 –> 00:22:05,880
adding that the police never charged him to court. A
348
00:22:06,000 –> 00:22:09,079
while in self detention with the police, he became the
349
00:22:09,119 –> 00:22:12,599
cele president and he facilitated the release of four persons
350
00:22:12,640 –> 00:22:16,119
who were probably arrested and detained by the police unjustly
351
00:22:16,240 –> 00:22:19,400
for a crime the beneficiaries may know nothing about and
352
00:22:19,480 –> 00:22:23,200
a video posted online by Harrison Guamoshu on Monday night
353
00:22:23,680 –> 00:22:26,119
showed he arrived home to the waiting hands of his
354
00:22:26,240 –> 00:22:29,759
elderly mother, who was seen in the video singing, dancing
355
00:22:29,799 –> 00:22:33,200
with other family members, friends and well wishes and screaming
356
00:22:33,240 –> 00:22:36,240
loud with joy while using one of her hands to
357
00:22:36,319 –> 00:22:40,079
caress the chest of her son, Harrison Guamashue, during which
358
00:22:40,119 –> 00:22:42,799
she said a lot of prayers in her local dialect.
359
00:22:43,559 –> 00:22:46,480
We had reported that the Nigeria Police Force under the
360
00:22:46,559 –> 00:22:50,119
leadership of ig P car Yode egg Beetoken, has kept
361
00:22:50,200 –> 00:22:54,759
months since reports indicated that the US trained Private Intelligent Officer,
362
00:22:55,240 –> 00:22:58,759
Harrison Guamashu, who was invited to facilitate the rescue of
363
00:22:58,799 –> 00:23:02,720
a married couple husband and wife simply identified as mister
364
00:23:02,839 –> 00:23:06,440
and missus Ibrahem, that was kidnapped since late November at
365
00:23:06,440 –> 00:23:10,400
their home in Avil Community, a village near Auchi Polytechnic
366
00:23:10,519 –> 00:23:14,119
in the Etseco West Local government area of Edo State,
367
00:23:14,240 –> 00:23:17,359
has been arrested and remanded to prison by a court
368
00:23:17,480 –> 00:23:21,559
sitting in Benin City, the Edo State capital, over allegations
369
00:23:21,559 –> 00:23:25,920
that the Private Intelligent Officer Harrison Gwamlishue underpaid the ransom
370
00:23:26,000 –> 00:23:28,319
money given to him to give to the kidnappers to
371
00:23:28,400 –> 00:23:32,079
rescue the married couple in captivity. The reports of Harrison
372
00:23:32,119 –> 00:23:36,559
Gwamlershoe’s arrest and subsequent remand a prison custody became widespread
373
00:23:36,599 –> 00:23:41,160
after a popular Nigeria social media activist, Vincent Martin Zotts,
374
00:23:41,200 –> 00:23:44,240
in a video statement on Friday morning, alleged that he
375
00:23:44,319 –> 00:23:48,559
has facilitated the arrest of the Private Intelligent officer Harrison
376
00:23:48,599 –> 00:23:52,759
Gwamlishue for allegedly removing five point four million IRUs from
377
00:23:52,839 –> 00:23:55,759
the total amount given to him by the victim’s family
378
00:23:55,839 –> 00:23:59,200
to help pay as ransom to the kidnappers. This occurred
379
00:23:59,519 –> 00:24:03,759
after the sting operations Guamneshue had prepared the ransom money
380
00:24:03,839 –> 00:24:07,799
for was probably aborted after a man whose real names
381
00:24:07,880 –> 00:24:12,039
may be oshurimhe job the segame, leaked, revealed and exposed
382
00:24:12,039 –> 00:24:16,319
the plans sensitive security information online. According to the suspect
383
00:24:16,319 –> 00:24:20,200
who leaked out the sensitive security operational plans of Guamlashue,
384
00:24:20,559 –> 00:24:23,759
Harrison Guamashue never told the family he was going to
385
00:24:23,799 –> 00:24:27,039
remove some money from the ransom that the kidnappers said.
386
00:24:27,039 –> 00:24:30,200
The money was not complete, hence only the wife was released.
387
00:24:30,519 –> 00:24:33,599
The man still held in captivity due to the incomplete
388
00:24:33,640 –> 00:24:37,640
ransom payment. The suspect, oshurimmey job a Segame, in a
389
00:24:37,720 –> 00:24:40,759
video recorded statement, stated that he was the one that
390
00:24:40,920 –> 00:24:44,680
helped facilitate the service of Harrison Guamlishu when the family
391
00:24:44,720 –> 00:24:48,039
of the kidnapped victims requested for it. The action of
392
00:24:48,079 –> 00:24:51,799
the suspect may have prompted Harrison Guamnaschue to abort them
393
00:24:51,880 –> 00:24:55,759
sting operations, obviously for the safety of his personal life
394
00:24:55,880 –> 00:24:59,839
and the lives of Nigeria soldiers and other security operatives
395
00:25:00,000 –> 00:25:03,480
he does use to execute and complete his sting operations
396
00:25:03,519 –> 00:25:06,519
against kidnappers, which often leads to the killing of the
397
00:25:06,599 –> 00:25:09,920
kidnappers and recovering of the total ransom paid for the
398
00:25:09,920 –> 00:25:14,039
purpose of clarity. Sting operations is a deceptive practice and
399
00:25:14,200 –> 00:25:18,799
undercover tactics used by journalists or intelligent officer or security
400
00:25:18,880 –> 00:25:22,519
operative to get closer to a suspected criminal or criminals
401
00:25:22,599 –> 00:25:25,160
in order to be more familiar with the criminals and
402
00:25:25,240 –> 00:25:29,000
the environment they operate. And the deceptive practice may include
403
00:25:29,000 –> 00:25:33,000
the journalist or intelligent officer or security operative pretending to
404
00:25:33,039 –> 00:25:35,880
give ransom money to kidnappers in a manner that can
405
00:25:35,920 –> 00:25:39,319
cause a delay and proper assessment of the environment before
406
00:25:39,359 –> 00:25:43,880
them security troops may launch offensive attack against the criminals.
407
00:25:44,359 –> 00:25:47,440
The action of a segeme of leaking out sensitive security
408
00:25:47,519 –> 00:25:50,640
information may be of interest. Why Nigeria’s soldiers and other
409
00:25:50,680 –> 00:25:54,240
security operatives are being killed in large numbers whenever in
410
00:25:54,319 –> 00:25:57,759
previous and recent years, the Nigeria security troops are on
411
00:25:57,880 –> 00:26:01,279
rescue missions, including the recent mass s killing of soldiers
412
00:26:01,279 –> 00:26:05,400
along with Brigadier General Huber Musa and civilian JTF members
413
00:26:05,400 –> 00:26:09,119
of with Jeraco Village in Borno State by criminals.
414
00:26:21,799 –> 00:26:29,079
Speaker 3: Alright, so that’s demonique eful, very dark man, that’s wicked.
415
00:26:28,680 –> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 2: Very dark way.
416
00:26:29,799 –> 00:26:34,599
Speaker 3: It’s about to do his demonique, evil, wicked, envyous, jealous
417
00:26:34,640 –> 00:26:36,119
things that he usually does.
418
00:26:36,720 –> 00:26:40,759
Speaker 2: But guess what, it always comes with truth and you
419
00:26:40,880 –> 00:26:43,480
all know you can’t take that away from you no
420
00:26:43,640 –> 00:26:47,200

00:26:51,079 –> 00:26:53,920
accuse pushnality, but you can never keep his videos. So
423
00:26:54,000 –> 00:26:56,160
sit down with him on wa. So are you seeing

490
00:30:56,839 –> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 2: And of course a lot of people trying to plead
491
00:30:59,519 –> 00:30:59,920
and all that.
492
00:31:00,000 –> 00:31:04,559
Speaker 3: Because the judge just said, yeah, now let’s go back again,
493
00:31:04,839 –> 00:31:08,279
right he said, for clarity, I was neither invited nor
494
00:31:08,400 –> 00:31:09,559
arrested by the police.
495
00:31:09,559 –> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 2: That means she works in So why don’t you workers?
496
00:31:13,880 –> 00:31:17,680
Why don’t you worker? Now? I don’t like that much
497
00:31:17,759 –> 00:31:21,880
control you see. But anything you say, I’m just gonna
498
00:31:21,880 –> 00:31:24,400
prom s some anything. And of course you’re a very
499
00:31:24,480 –> 00:31:26,839
dark man. As proof, I don’t need to tell you.
500
00:31:26,839 –> 00:31:27,519
You see.
501
00:31:28,319 –> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 6: And Chilians have what I call a problem. It’s not
502
00:31:33,200 –> 00:31:36,720
as if they don’t know. Whatever thing I say, trust
503
00:31:36,759 –> 00:31:39,559
me the whole country. Anybody that watches it, you know
504
00:31:39,720 –> 00:31:40,359
I’m not mine.
505
00:31:40,440 –> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 3: Of course, some people out of hate, I don’t attack
506
00:31:43,480 –> 00:31:46,680
their favorite person before they are scared that tomorrow might
507
00:31:46,720 –> 00:31:47,400
be they at all.
508
00:31:47,799 –> 00:31:49,559
Speaker 2: You know that we just got that. It’s like a
509
00:31:50,079 –> 00:31:50,880
it’s like a group.
510
00:31:51,400 –> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 5: You understand. They have a group of haters somewhere they
511
00:31:54,720 –> 00:31:56,960
camp against very dark man. But the problem is this,
512
00:31:58,000 –> 00:32:01,400
you can’t do anything. Understand, you can’t do anything.
513
00:32:01,480 –> 00:32:05,599
Speaker 3: And once very that man talks about you take it anywhere.
514
00:32:06,359 –> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 2: There’s what I do.
515
00:32:07,559 –> 00:32:10,079
Speaker 3: I call it to the truth hold, and put the
516
00:32:10,160 –> 00:32:11,799
truth hold on your personality.
517
00:32:12,319 –> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 2: You might not go to prison. You might not go
518
00:32:14,240 –> 00:32:18,039
to jail. But there’s that’s doubts idea. If I put
519
00:32:18,039 –> 00:32:18,720
the problem.
520
00:32:20,160 –> 00:32:24,279
Speaker 3: Before anybody takes your story anymore, it’s going to take ages.
521
00:32:24,599 –> 00:32:26,279
Speaker 2: We have going on and started. I will not go
522
00:32:26,720 –> 00:32:29,759
bit by bit into the whole thing like I said
523
00:32:29,759 –> 00:32:31,440
I would just want you to come and tell the
524
00:32:31,480 –> 00:32:34,160
problem for it. Nobody can believe you over very that man.
525
00:32:34,160 –> 00:32:36,880
It’s not one. Possibly they are all lying to themselves.
526
00:32:37,880 –> 00:32:40,200
Do you understand? And again this is the law. Let
527
00:32:40,200 –> 00:32:43,680
me tell you out law, it’s my law. It’s my law.
528
00:32:44,039 –> 00:32:45,799
When very that man, when you have.
529
00:32:45,839 –> 00:32:48,599
Speaker 5: A problem, very dark man, ry this what happens, or
530
00:32:48,599 –> 00:32:51,400
when there’s a problem when people have the problem of video.
531
00:32:52,000 –> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 3: That period we get a lot of engagement. After four months,
532
00:32:55,920 –> 00:32:58,480
the people know VIDM and it’s not lying. They know.
533
00:32:58,559 –> 00:33:01,000
They just want to just bush it. But of course
534
00:33:01,079 –> 00:33:04,039
Videam doesn’t give upop, so they’ve got to support you.
535
00:33:05,640 –> 00:33:07,880
Then later they know the truths. They are gonna go back.
536
00:33:09,039 –> 00:33:11,240
They did it with China Ros. What is it today?
537
00:33:11,519 –> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 2: We start your love a few days ago? Everybody you
538
00:33:14,880 –> 00:33:18,839
love it. You can’t get no good and give me
539
00:33:18,960 –> 00:33:23,720
no more. That’s just something like yours, right, do you understand?
540
00:33:23,799 –> 00:33:26,200
So when you do that, it’s coming through sometimes and
541
00:33:26,240 –> 00:33:28,000
these at things, I look at them and my smile.
542
00:33:28,400 –> 00:33:30,480
Four months they know vid and don’t lie.
543
00:33:30,640 –> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 7: The more they know VIDM don’t lie. Do you understand
544
00:33:35,200 –> 00:33:39,279
they know Vida don’t lie. Like I said, my work
545
00:33:39,400 –> 00:33:41,599
sometimes is not to take you to jail. No, not
546
00:33:41,759 –> 00:33:45,039
because I want them to arrest. No simple. I just
547
00:33:45,079 –> 00:33:47,000
put a hole there. It’s a whole.
548
00:33:47,759 –> 00:33:55,759
Speaker 2: It’s called the truth. Hold in the character. Do you understand?
549
00:33:56,039 –> 00:33:58,720
And the painful parties all of.
550
00:33:58,599 –> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 3: You cannot do anything them.
551
00:34:01,559 –> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 2: No body can do.
552
00:34:02,599 –> 00:34:04,759
Speaker 3: Anything about it. This is very dark man we are
553
00:34:04,799 –> 00:34:09,960
talking about. Do you understand now? Your connection cannot do much.
554
00:34:10,639 –> 00:34:13,719
You bring up money, We bring up money too. You
555
00:34:13,800 –> 00:34:16,039
can’t tell no police to go pick very dark man
556
00:34:16,159 –> 00:34:18,760
up anymore that you have some connection. It’s not gonna
557
00:34:18,800 –> 00:34:21,400
work unless if you have the government. Of course the
558
00:34:21,440 –> 00:34:22,280
gods can do that.
559
00:34:22,360 –> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 2: They have the government, but no single identity. He gave
560
00:34:25,880 –> 00:34:28,280
me this full country can do ship anymore.
561
00:34:29,360 –> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 3: You can waste two hundred villion and I’ll put it down.
562
00:34:35,320 –> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 2: You go higher. We put money down. Now. I guess
563
00:34:40,360 –> 00:34:44,719
what what people don’t know? What’s the case is in
564
00:34:44,760 –> 00:34:47,800
the public. I can talk about it. It’s my right
565
00:34:47,960 –> 00:34:59,360
to talk about it. I like my new assent. It’s
566
00:34:59,360 –> 00:34:59,599
a love.
567
00:34:59,639 –> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 3: Don’t play, you play, don leanna. You will learn the
568
00:35:01,719 –> 00:35:03,719
hard way, and in this case you will learn. Like
569
00:35:03,760 –> 00:35:06,000
I said, I’ll make everybody look stupid. That is what
570
00:35:06,079 –> 00:35:08,519
I do best. It’s a love don’t play you? Oh no,
571
00:35:08,679 –> 00:35:11,239
I don’t need love on nobody. I don’t use love
572
00:35:11,239 –> 00:35:11,920
for the laddie.
573
00:35:19,280 –> 00:35:22,519
Speaker 1: Harrison Guamashu says he was never arrested by the police
574
00:35:22,639 –> 00:35:25,719
or charged to court. Has speculated in the public spaces
575
00:35:25,800 –> 00:35:29,159
over the five point four million IRUs he allegedly removed
576
00:35:29,159 –> 00:35:31,920
out of the twenty million IRUs ransom he was given
577
00:35:31,960 –> 00:35:35,119
to handover to kidnappers and as well apparently used the
578
00:35:35,159 –> 00:35:37,960
money as a baked a stage sting operation for the
579
00:35:38,000 –> 00:35:41,440
release and rescue of the husband and wife simply identified
580
00:35:41,480 –> 00:35:45,079
as mister and Missus Ibraheim kidnapped in Avili community in
581
00:35:45,119 –> 00:35:49,000
the Exico West Local government area of Edo State, which
582
00:35:49,119 –> 00:35:52,960
generated public reactions after the kidnappers set free the wife
583
00:35:52,960 –> 00:35:55,679
and kept the husband in captivity on the ground that
584
00:35:55,719 –> 00:35:58,480
the money given to them was not complete, and some
585
00:35:58,559 –> 00:36:02,480
persons who have access to the apparent sensitive security information
586
00:36:02,679 –> 00:36:06,239
went public to create an impression as if Harrison Guamlashu
587
00:36:06,400 –> 00:36:10,280
stole part of the ransom money, even when Harrison Gwamnashu
588
00:36:10,360 –> 00:36:13,000
explained to them that it is part of his operational
589
00:36:13,039 –> 00:36:16,519
procedures to remove some cash from the ransom money. His
590
00:36:16,639 –> 00:36:20,199
explanation apparently went on deaf ears and people who may
591
00:36:20,199 –> 00:36:23,239
be best described as mischief makers took advantage of the
592
00:36:23,320 –> 00:36:27,159
issue to call Harrison Guamashu names and reopen his alleged
593
00:36:27,239 –> 00:36:31,079
past deeds in a prejudiced manner to cast dispersions on him,
594
00:36:31,119 –> 00:36:34,159
even when they knew that Harrison Gwamnoshu has a long
595
00:36:34,280 –> 00:36:38,760
history with video evidences of assisting security operatives to rescue
596
00:36:38,840 –> 00:36:42,320
kidnapped victims and in some cases the total money paid
597
00:36:42,360 –> 00:36:45,400
as ransom are recovered and returned to the victim’s families
598
00:36:45,440 –> 00:36:48,320
and the sting operation usually leads to the killing and
599
00:36:48,440 –> 00:36:53,039
arrest of the suspected kidnappers. This according to Harrison Guamoshue
600
00:36:53,079 –> 00:36:56,719
in a statement he issued through his verified Facebook accounts
601
00:36:56,760 –> 00:36:59,880
some hours ago, he was the one who personally submitted
602
00:37:00,159 –> 00:37:04,199
himself voluntarily to the Edo State Command of the Nigeria Police,
603
00:37:04,239 –> 00:37:07,360
forced to enable the police investigate his action, that he
604
00:37:07,440 –> 00:37:10,039
never had the intention of stealing the money and his
605
00:37:10,159 –> 00:37:13,159
action of removing some money from the ransom was part
606
00:37:13,239 –> 00:37:17,199
of his usual operational procedures, adding that the police never
607
00:37:17,320 –> 00:37:20,039
charged him to court and while in self detention with
608
00:37:20,079 –> 00:37:23,440
the police, he became the cell President, and he facilitated
609
00:37:23,480 –> 00:37:26,599
the release of four persons who were probably arrested and
610
00:37:26,679 –> 00:37:30,079
detained by the police unjustly for a crime the beneficiaries
611
00:37:30,119 –> 00:37:33,320
may know nothing about. And a video posted online by
612
00:37:33,440 –> 00:37:37,199
Harrison Gwamlashu on Monday night showed he arrived home to
613
00:37:37,239 –> 00:37:39,920
the waiting hands of his elderly mother, who was seen
614
00:37:40,039 –> 00:37:43,920
in the video singing, dancing with other family members, friends
615
00:37:43,920 –> 00:37:47,280
and well wishes and screaming loud with joy while using
616
00:37:47,320 –> 00:37:49,880
one of her hands to caress the chest of her son,
617
00:37:50,400 –> 00:37:53,559
Harrison Guamneshu, during which she said a lot of prayers
618
00:37:53,559 –> 00:37:58,360
in her local dialect. In his words, Harrison Gwamlishu said,
619
00:37:58,719 –> 00:38:02,719
I did not return alone during my time in custody.
620
00:38:03,119 –> 00:38:06,599
I became the cell Precido O b J and later
621
00:38:06,719 –> 00:38:10,320
handed over that responsibility to a young man, Honor Abba,
622
00:38:10,639 –> 00:38:14,639
who had also been unjustly arrested and detained. While there,
623
00:38:14,920 –> 00:38:18,239
I quietly supported the release of four individuals who were
624
00:38:18,280 –> 00:38:21,599
being held without cause, and to day, Honor Abber from
625
00:38:21,599 –> 00:38:26,280
Benaway State has also regained his freedom. My sincere appreciation
626
00:38:26,480 –> 00:38:29,719
goes to my HEADO Human Rights team led by John
627
00:38:29,760 –> 00:38:33,559
Odeon Cadiri for their invaluable support in making this possible.
628
00:38:34,239 –> 00:38:37,239
Dear family, I am pleased to inform you all that
629
00:38:37,320 –> 00:38:41,239
I have been released from custody. Words cannot express how
630
00:38:41,280 –> 00:38:44,920
grateful I am for your support, especially considering that many
631
00:38:44,960 –> 00:38:47,159
of you had not yet heard my own side of
632
00:38:47,199 –> 00:38:51,480
what truly happened. For clarity, I was neither invited nor
633
00:38:51,559 –> 00:38:55,480
arrested by the police. As a law abiding citizen. I
634
00:38:55,559 –> 00:39:00,559
voluntarily presented myself for investigation regarding the incident, but the
635
00:39:00,639 –> 00:39:03,800
moment I have not been charged as the matter is
636
00:39:03,840 –> 00:39:07,800
still under review by the Directorate of Public Prosecution. I
637
00:39:07,880 –> 00:39:11,519
sincerely appreciate every one of you. I will take time
638
00:39:11,599 –> 00:39:15,239
to personally thank you all for standing by me. My
639
00:39:15,360 –> 00:39:20,840
special appreciation goes to my lawyers, Barrister Elai Walla Afflabee, Sam,
640
00:39:21,360 –> 00:39:25,480
Barrister de lay Benellion, Barrister favor A Jewibor and Barrister
641
00:39:25,519 –> 00:39:29,639
Awles Ideal for their professionalism and dedication in securing my release.
642
00:39:30,480 –> 00:39:34,719
Despite my many years of advocating against police brutality, one
643
00:39:34,800 –> 00:39:39,000
might have assumed the police would be hostile towards me. Instead,
644
00:39:39,360 –> 00:39:42,320
I am grateful to the Edo State Commissioner of Police
645
00:39:42,360 –> 00:39:46,199
for his wisdom and professionalism. I must also commend the
646
00:39:46,239 –> 00:39:49,559
hard working investigation team led by C. S. P os
647
00:39:49,760 –> 00:39:52,760
J for their care and fatherly guidance during my time
648
00:39:52,800 –> 00:39:56,599
in detention. Thank you all once again for being part
649
00:39:56,639 –> 00:40:02,159
of my journey, said Harrison Guamoschu, founder Safe City Volunteer Foundation.
650
00:40:03,039 –> 00:40:05,920
We have reported that the Nigeria Police Force under the
651
00:40:06,000 –> 00:40:09,960
leadership of IGP car Yode eg Beetoken has kept months
652
00:40:10,000 –> 00:40:14,199
since reports indicated that the US trained Private Intelligent Officer
653
00:40:14,719 –> 00:40:18,199
Harrison Gwamnashu, who was invited to facilitate the rescue of
654
00:40:18,239 –> 00:40:22,199
a married couple husband and wife simply identified as mister
655
00:40:22,320 –> 00:40:25,880
and missus Ibraheim, that was kidnapped since laid November at
656
00:40:25,920 –> 00:40:29,880
their home in Avilei Community, a village near Aichi Polytechnic
657
00:40:30,000 –> 00:40:33,639
in the Etseico West Local government area of Edo State,
658
00:40:33,760 –> 00:40:36,920
has been arrested and remanded to prison by a court
659
00:40:37,000 –> 00:40:41,079
sitting in Benin City, the Edo State capital, over allegations
660
00:40:41,119 –> 00:40:45,480
that the private Intelligent Officer Harrison Guamashue underpaid the ransom
661
00:40:45,559 –> 00:40:47,880
money given to him to give to the kidnappers to
662
00:40:47,920 –> 00:40:51,639
rescue the married couple in captivity. The reports of Harrison
663
00:40:51,679 –> 00:40:56,119
Gwamnershoe’s arrest and subsequent remand to prison custody became widespread
664
00:40:56,159 –> 00:41:00,760
after a popular Nigeria social media activist, Vincent Martin Zots,
665
00:41:00,800 –> 00:41:03,840
in a video statement on Friday morning, alleged that he
666
00:41:03,880 –> 00:41:08,159
has facilitated the arrest of the Private Intelligent Officer Harrison
667
00:41:08,199 –> 00:41:12,360
Gwamnashu for allegedly removing five point four million narers from
668
00:41:12,440 –> 00:41:15,440
the total amount given to him by the victim’s family
669
00:41:15,519 –> 00:41:18,880
to help pay as ransom to the kidnappers. This occurred
670
00:41:19,199 –> 00:41:23,400
after the sting operations Guamneshu had prepared the ransom money
671
00:41:23,440 –> 00:41:27,559
for was probably aborted after a man whose real names
672
00:41:27,679 –> 00:41:31,800
may be oshiurimhy job Be Segheme leaked, revealed and exposed
673
00:41:31,800 –> 00:41:36,079
the planned sensitive security information online. According to the suspect
674
00:41:36,079 –> 00:41:39,960
who leaked out the sensitive security operational plans of Guamnaeshue,
675
00:41:40,280 –> 00:41:43,440
Harrison Gwamnashu never told the family he was going to
676
00:41:43,480 –> 00:41:46,639
remove some money from the ransom that the kidnappers said
677
00:41:46,679 –> 00:41:49,800
the money was not complete, hence only the wife was released.
678
00:41:50,119 –> 00:41:53,239
The man still held in captivity due to the incomplete
679
00:41:53,320 –> 00:41:57,280
ransom payment. The suspect, oshiurimhy job A Segheme, in a
680
00:41:57,400 –> 00:42:00,920
video recorded statement, stated that he was one that helped
681
00:42:00,960 –> 00:42:04,440
facilitate the service of Harrison Guamashue when the family of
682
00:42:04,480 –> 00:42:07,800
the kidnapped victims requested for it. The action of the
683
00:42:07,880 –> 00:42:12,559
suspect may have prompted Harrison Guamaschue to abort the sting operations,
684
00:42:12,840 –> 00:42:15,800
obviously for the safety of his personal life and the
685
00:42:15,880 –> 00:42:19,960
lives of Nigeria’s soldiers and other security operatives he does
686
00:42:20,119 –> 00:42:24,199
use to execute and complete his sting operations against kidnappers,
687
00:42:24,239 –> 00:42:26,880
which often leads to the killing of the kidnappers and
688
00:42:26,960 –> 00:42:30,519
recovering of the total ransom paid for the purpose of clarity.
689
00:42:30,800 –> 00:42:35,239
Sting operations is a deceptive practice and undercover tactics used
690
00:42:35,280 –> 00:42:39,519
by journalists or intelligent officer or security operative to get
691
00:42:39,559 –> 00:42:42,960
closer to a suspected criminal or criminals in order to
692
00:42:43,000 –> 00:42:46,480
be more familiar with the criminals and the environment they operate.
693
00:42:46,880 –> 00:42:50,239
And the deceptive practice may include the journalist or intelligent
694
00:42:50,320 –> 00:42:54,119
officer or security operative pretending to give ransom money to
695
00:42:54,199 –> 00:42:56,679
kidnappers in a manner that can cause a delay and
696
00:42:56,800 –> 00:42:59,920
proper assessment of the environment before the security e tr
697
00:43:00,000 –> 00:43:03,960
troops may launch offensive attack against the criminals. The action
698
00:43:04,039 –> 00:43:07,519
of a segame of leaking out sensitive security information may
699
00:43:07,519 –> 00:43:12,400
be of interest. Why Nigeria soldiers and other security operatives
700
00:43:12,400 –> 00:43:15,519
are being killed in large numbers whenever In previous and
701
00:43:15,599 –> 00:43:19,639
recent years, the Nigeria security troops are on rescue missions,
702
00:43:19,679 –> 00:43:23,079
including the recent mass killing of soldiers along with Brigadier
703
00:43:23,159 –> 00:43:27,079
General Uber Musa and civilian JTF members at were Jericho
704
00:43:27,239 –> 00:43:29,400
Village in Borno State by criminals.
705
00:43:30,000 –> 00:43:33,760
Speaker 8: What’s in your name? My name is the hona aba?
706
00:43:33,960 –> 00:43:40,480

what he did with.
739
00:45:19,239 –> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 2: Qui.
740
00:45:22,679 –> 00:45:26,199
Speaker 1: Barely one month after terrorists invaded the Christian school on
741
00:45:26,320 –> 00:45:29,760
November twenty first, twenty twenty five and kidnapped over two
742
00:45:29,920 –> 00:45:33,119
hundred and thirty school children at the Saint Mary Catholic
743
00:45:33,320 –> 00:45:37,559
Church School in Papri Town in Niger State, the Nigeria government,
744
00:45:37,719 –> 00:45:41,400
under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tenubu has announced
745
00:45:41,440 –> 00:45:44,639
the complete release of all the abducted church school children
746
00:45:44,719 –> 00:45:49,440
by the terrorists. According to the presidential Spokesperson, BeO on Auga,
747
00:45:49,760 –> 00:45:53,320
the terrorists released the kids based on intelligent driven operations,
748
00:45:53,679 –> 00:45:56,920
but some Nigerians who took to the comments sections of
749
00:45:57,000 –> 00:46:01,639
the presidential spokesperson on social media said the government should
750
00:46:01,679 –> 00:46:04,000
come out clean and tell the public the truth that
751
00:46:04,119 –> 00:46:06,960
it paid money as ransom to the terrorists to secure
752
00:46:07,039 –> 00:46:10,639
the freedom of the kids, stressing that terrorists don’t release
753
00:46:10,760 –> 00:46:15,920
kidnapped victims for free. Bao on Anuga, the presidential spokesperson,
754
00:46:16,000 –> 00:46:18,840
had said in a statement he issued and made available
755
00:46:18,920 –> 00:46:22,639
yesterday that the remaining one hundred and thirty school children
756
00:46:22,719 –> 00:46:26,559
abducted by terrorists at Saint Mary’s Catholic School in Papri,
757
00:46:27,039 –> 00:46:30,920
Niger State on November twenty first, have now been released.
758
00:46:31,719 –> 00:46:34,320
They are expected to arrive in Minna on Monday and
759
00:46:34,480 –> 00:46:38,599
rejoin their parents for the Christmas celebration. One hundred were
760
00:46:38,639 –> 00:46:42,079
released earlier by the terrorists, taking the total of freed
761
00:46:42,199 –> 00:46:45,559
students to two hundred and thirty. The freedom of the
762
00:46:45,639 –> 00:46:50,760
school children followed a military intelligence driven operation. Some social
763
00:46:50,840 –> 00:46:54,199
media uses who are apparently Nigerians, took to the comments
764
00:46:54,280 –> 00:46:58,239
sections of the presidential spokesperson post both on Facebook and
765
00:46:58,400 –> 00:47:02,679
ex social media platform and expressed themselves over the new developments,
766
00:47:03,119 –> 00:47:07,519
some of which are presented verbatim below. Relwan Ibrahem said,
767
00:47:08,000 –> 00:47:12,760
released not rescued kidnappers. Don’t release captives for free. In all,
768
00:47:12,920 –> 00:47:16,840
thank God for their lives. Femiade Boye said, so what
769
00:47:17,039 –> 00:47:20,599
happened to their abductors? Were they engaged in the way
770
00:47:20,639 –> 00:47:25,199
they understand or they were released after monetary negotiation. We
771
00:47:25,400 –> 00:47:28,320
thank God for the release of these children. At the
772
00:47:28,400 –> 00:47:33,039
same time, what happened to the abductors? Akim badet Agenbiade
773
00:47:33,199 –> 00:47:38,360
said military intelligence driven operation as how enna how many
774
00:47:38,480 –> 00:47:42,559
bandits did their rest? Banquis Alash said a wheeler dealer
775
00:47:42,639 –> 00:47:45,880
government of no direction will never say the truth. Only
776
00:47:46,000 –> 00:47:48,719
God knows how much ransom was paid from the hard
777
00:47:48,800 –> 00:47:53,119
earned resources or borrowed funds of this country. No amount
778
00:47:53,199 –> 00:47:57,639
of propaganda or damage control. Nigerian’s becomes wiser every day
779
00:47:57,760 –> 00:47:59,639
with all your antics and they are ready for you
780
00:47:59,719 –> 00:48:04,440
come tw twenty seven. Roscoe Orko said, Sir, with all
781
00:48:04,559 –> 00:48:08,079
due respect, do the terrorists release them unconditionally or your
782
00:48:08,119 –> 00:48:13,519
government paid ransom? Joe k Megamixer stated, the presidency celebrates
783
00:48:13,559 –> 00:48:18,519
her military intelligence driven operation for the papary release, yet
784
00:48:18,599 –> 00:48:21,599
says nothing about the fate of the abductors. In a
785
00:48:21,679 –> 00:48:25,719
functioning security system, the return of victims is only half
786
00:48:25,800 –> 00:48:29,880
the job. Without arrests or neutralized threats, this is not
787
00:48:30,000 –> 00:48:32,559
a rescue. It is a handover that comes at a
788
00:48:32,639 –> 00:48:36,320
cost that wasn’t mentioned. The official account of the papery
789
00:48:36,400 –> 00:48:40,280
release reads like a travel itinery, not a security report.
790
00:48:41,119 –> 00:48:44,440
If this was indeed an intelligence led operation, where are
791
00:48:44,480 –> 00:48:48,599
the suspects. Silence on the abductor’s fate suggests a non
792
00:48:48,719 –> 00:48:53,800
combative arrangement that leaves the kidnap industry intact. Mass kidnappings
793
00:48:53,840 –> 00:48:56,440
in Niger State have become a cycle of trauma and
794
00:48:56,559 –> 00:49:01,400
pr managed returns. By failing to mention any neutralized threats
795
00:49:01,519 –> 00:49:05,760
or arrests in the Papri operation, the presidency inadvertibly credits
796
00:49:05,800 –> 00:49:09,320
the kindness of terrorists for the freedom of our children.
797
00:49:10,039 –> 00:49:14,519
Elieu Mohammad stated, kudos to President Bola armed to Enubu
798
00:49:14,800 –> 00:49:19,920
pbat for his serious commitment to tackling security challenges. Lately,
799
00:49:20,199 –> 00:49:22,639
the government has been putting in real work to end
800
00:49:22,760 –> 00:49:27,199
kidnapping and banditry once and for all. Samuel Osiner stated
801
00:49:27,639 –> 00:49:33,480
such military intelligence transactions completed alert received a government that
802
00:49:33,599 –> 00:49:38,199
negotiates with terrorists. On Newsom stated, I’m glad the remaining
803
00:49:38,280 –> 00:49:41,360
school children have been released and will soon be reunited
804
00:49:41,440 –> 00:49:46,639
with their families. But mister Mayo, how many terrorists were
805
00:49:46,719 –> 00:49:50,079
arrested or killed during the operation to free these children
806
00:49:50,960 –> 00:49:53,440
or was it the usual method of paying ransom to
807
00:49:53,519 –> 00:49:59,000
these terrorists while pretending otherwise? Then Samuel stated, what happened
808
00:49:59,000 –> 00:50:02,840
to the kidnappers? Frankly, We’re far more interested in seeing
809
00:50:03,000 –> 00:50:05,599
how you deal ruthlessly with the terrorists than in the
810
00:50:05,719 –> 00:50:09,480
victims themselves, because we all know you’ll insist no ransom
811
00:50:09,639 –> 00:50:12,920
was paid even as they were released, perhaps in exchange
812
00:50:13,000 –> 00:50:17,599
for Exmas hand shakes. You can’t easily steal fifty cows
813
00:50:17,639 –> 00:50:20,559
and march them into the forests, let alone abduct hundreds
814
00:50:20,599 –> 00:50:24,480
of human beings. How do you plan to face Nigerians
815
00:50:24,599 –> 00:50:28,000
next year and campaign for a p C reelection when
816
00:50:28,039 –> 00:50:31,039
that would only mean more kidnappings and deeper in security.
817
00:50:31,880 –> 00:50:35,920
This is a truly clueless administration. What Nigerians want is
818
00:50:36,000 –> 00:50:39,440
to see the forests litted with the bodies of neutralized kidnappers,
819
00:50:39,960 –> 00:50:43,280
proof of overwhelming firepower. But Instead, you allow them to
820
00:50:43,320 –> 00:50:47,239
regroup and strike again, kidnapping even more victims every day.
821
00:50:48,119 –> 00:50:52,440
Chicahohajee added that mister on Anuga, don’t you think it
822
00:50:52,599 –> 00:50:54,880
is just too much to ask children who have been
823
00:50:54,960 –> 00:50:57,320
in a terrorist den for close to two months to
824
00:50:57,400 –> 00:51:01,079
be smiling for the camera. While we are relieved, these children,
825
00:51:01,159 –> 00:51:05,000
who are from being normal kids have undergone severe trauma,
826
00:51:05,440 –> 00:51:08,079
asking them to smile for the camera is adding salt
827
00:51:08,119 –> 00:51:12,000
to injury. They did not go on vacation. It wasn’t
828
00:51:12,079 –> 00:51:16,000
Disney World. I think you people can do better. Terrorists
829
00:51:16,000 –> 00:51:19,760
are in competition with government for control of resources. That
830
00:51:20,000 –> 00:51:23,719
tells you a lot. Hallata Smith added that check out
831
00:51:23,760 –> 00:51:27,239
the words used how will release follow after a military
832
00:51:27,320 –> 00:51:31,000
intelligence operation and no abductors were either arrested or sent
833
00:51:31,079 –> 00:51:34,119
to their maker. Looks like we are getting good at
834
00:51:34,159 –> 00:51:39,519
hostile negotiations. Honorable Nuhusada added that we welcome the safe
835
00:51:39,639 –> 00:51:42,559
release of the remaining one hundred and thirty school children
836
00:51:42,639 –> 00:51:46,800
in Paparri. While we rejoice with their families, this tragic
837
00:51:46,880 –> 00:51:50,679
abduction underscores the urgent need for effective security reforms to
838
00:51:50,840 –> 00:51:53,159
ensure our children can learn without fear.
839
00:51:56,119 –> 00:51:59,519
Speaker 2: Lady Quindi Uge.
840
00:52:00,199 –> 00:52:03,199
Speaker 1: The increasing rates of mass shooting leading to mass murder
841
00:52:03,320 –> 00:52:06,760
in South Africa recorded another new figure on Sunday early
842
00:52:06,880 –> 00:52:09,800
morning in the Beckistal town near the southwestern part of
843
00:52:09,960 –> 00:52:13,679
Johannesburg in the Gauteng province, when about twelve masked unknown
844
00:52:13,760 –> 00:52:18,360
gunmen invaded a public drinking accommodation and relaxation spot known
845
00:52:18,400 –> 00:52:21,559
as Tavern, shooting into the parban shop people as they
846
00:52:21,679 –> 00:52:24,360
cite them on the street while fleeing, leading to the
847
00:52:24,480 –> 00:52:28,039
killing of nine persons as confirmed by the local authority,
848
00:52:28,480 –> 00:52:32,320
with additional ten persons sustaining injuries. This occurred less than
849
00:52:32,360 –> 00:52:36,320
three weeks when gunman stormed an illegal drinking establishment also
850
00:52:36,480 –> 00:52:40,119
known as Chabine at a hostel in Sausville, west of Pretoria,
851

wherein twelve people were killed, including a three year old child,

the Democratic Alliance BC, had stated in its report earlier
858

00:53:19,760 –> 00:53:23,559
In twenty twenty five first quarter and six thousand, nine

and four per day, and as at the time of
872
00:54:04,360 –> 00:54:07,639
filing in this report on Monday morning, the South Africa
873
00:54:07,719 –> 00:54:11,679
President Cyril Ramafosa is yet to issue statement or announced
874
00:54:11,719 –> 00:54:15,320
policy action over the Sunday recent mass murder in the country,
875
00:54:15,599 –> 00:54:18,559
just as residents who spoke with local media blamed the
876
00:54:18,679 –> 00:54:22,599
attack on a llegal miners known by the group name Zamazamas,
877
00:54:22,639 –> 00:54:25,199
and the residents believed the police are in cahoots with
878
00:54:25,320 –> 00:54:30,519
the different gangsters terrorizing communities in South Africa. Local residents
879
00:54:30,519 –> 00:54:33,360
who spoke with local news media said that the mass
880
00:54:33,440 –> 00:54:36,960
murder in Beckistal occurred around one an early morning night
881
00:54:37,079 –> 00:54:40,679
on Sunday, December twenty first, with about twelve gunman in
882
00:54:40,719 –> 00:54:43,559
a wide van and silver saddan opened fire at the
883
00:54:43,599 –> 00:54:48,960
Quinnoxalo tavern in Bekistal, southwest of Johannesburg. A resident who
884
00:54:49,039 –> 00:54:54,079
spoke with Newsroom Africa television said, it is bad, my sister.
885
00:54:54,920 –> 00:54:58,039
The thing is, this has become a norm in this township.
886
00:54:58,840 –> 00:55:01,960
Young kids. When the kids as young as two three
887
00:55:02,079 –> 00:55:06,320
years old, when a gunshot sounds, they don’t flinch. They
888
00:55:06,360 –> 00:55:10,039
would ask you which direction does it come from? They’re
889
00:55:10,199 –> 00:55:14,119
used to gunshots little kids. Now you can imagine how
890
00:55:14,239 –> 00:55:17,880
much about old people. What happened yesterday is a reflection
891
00:55:18,119 –> 00:55:21,400
of I don’t know how to put it. Maybe let
892
00:55:21,480 –> 00:55:26,159
me put it straight, a reflection of neglect by the police. Criminals.
893
00:55:26,519 –> 00:55:29,880
They do as they please. Here. These guns they sound
894
00:55:29,920 –> 00:55:32,800
each and every evening. Let me put it that way.
895
00:55:33,320 –> 00:55:36,000
As soon as it’s dusk, we know that gunshots are
896
00:55:36,039 –> 00:55:39,239
about to sound, and they will sound severely to a
897
00:55:39,320 –> 00:55:43,000
point whereby us ourselves would wonder someone is shot or
898
00:55:43,079 –> 00:55:46,559
maybe someone has died. It is rare that you find
899
00:55:46,679 –> 00:55:50,960
people die like this, But gunshots they sound. The following morning,
900
00:55:51,440 –> 00:55:54,599
there’s no report of someone dead. So I don’t know
901
00:55:54,800 –> 00:55:58,639
if this today it’s music, it’s something that they enjoy,
902
00:55:59,000 –> 00:56:03,559
but it’s terrorizing our communities. Who is terrorizing your community?
903
00:56:04,039 –> 00:56:07,199
People that are terrorizing our communities mainly is the Zama,
904
00:56:07,719 –> 00:56:11,559
Zarmas and Suitor Nationals. To be precise, Why am I
905
00:56:11,679 –> 00:56:14,679
saying that when you talk to some of them, they
906
00:56:14,719 –> 00:56:17,679
will tell you that this is a rivalry thing. It’s
907
00:56:17,719 –> 00:56:20,800
a gang rivalry thing. There are two gangs that are
908
00:56:20,840 –> 00:56:22,960
in the main that are playing a four role here
909
00:56:23,079 –> 00:56:25,199
and they are making sure that they send a clear
910
00:56:25,280 –> 00:56:29,440
message to each other. You understand, because here there’s a
911
00:56:29,559 –> 00:56:32,960
gang of these people that reside here or that stays
912
00:56:33,039 –> 00:56:35,039
with us here, and their arrival is on the other
913
00:56:35,159 –> 00:56:38,920
side of town. So as they come here, they’re sending
914
00:56:38,960 –> 00:56:41,559
a message to these ones, but at the expense of
915
00:56:41,639 –> 00:56:44,840
our own community. So I would like to plead with
916
00:56:45,000 –> 00:56:48,480
General to please take action with this, and he must
917
00:56:48,519 –> 00:56:51,320
be decisive with it such that he starts from within
918
00:56:51,440 –> 00:56:54,440
his own house. They’re at the police, the police station
919
00:56:54,599 –> 00:56:59,079
of Pakistan. If necessary, let it be that they reshuffle everyone,
920
00:56:59,159 –> 00:57:01,199
if they can transfer for all of them and bring
921
00:57:01,360 –> 00:57:04,079
new members here, because we are having a problem with
922
00:57:04,159 –> 00:57:08,559
them being in cahoots with criminals. You understand, the community
923
00:57:08,639 –> 00:57:11,599
will tell you the police are collecting brown envelopes from
924
00:57:11,639 –> 00:57:15,079
these people and nothing is happening. So the crime here
925
00:57:15,280 –> 00:57:19,440
is dismal. It’s bad. And the leadership, let me be specific,
926
00:57:19,880 –> 00:57:22,760
the counselors and the war committees here must come to play.
927
00:57:23,559 –> 00:57:27,639
But I think also they themselves they are politicizing these issues.
928
00:57:28,519 –> 00:57:30,960
They are not. They are not. They are not up
929
00:57:31,079 –> 00:57:34,679
to up to scratch with this team. Among the twenty
930
00:57:34,760 –> 00:57:39,039
people shot with nine confirmed dead, police says its investigation
931
00:57:39,239 –> 00:57:43,199
is ongoing. From the point of view of the terrorist attack, Gouting,
932
00:57:43,280 –> 00:57:47,719
Deputy Provincial Police Commissioner Major General Fred Kakhana said the
933
00:57:47,800 –> 00:57:53,000
attackers searched people after shooting them, taking their valuables, including phones.
934
00:57:53,840 –> 00:57:57,039
He said three people were killed inside the bar, while
935
00:57:57,079 –> 00:57:59,360
others were shot as they tried to flee, with the
936
00:57:59,400 –> 00:58:03,280
gunman cantinuing to fire as they left the scene. Gauting
937
00:58:03,360 –> 00:58:08,239
Deputy Provincial Police Commissioner Major General Fred Kakhana also told
938
00:58:08,400 –> 00:58:12,079
Newsroom Africa that the perpetrators armed with pistols in one
939
00:58:12,159 –> 00:58:16,719
AK forty seven were unprovoked. The poor patrons were just
940
00:58:16,920 –> 00:58:21,119
enjoying themselves when people came and shot, he said. The
941
00:58:21,199 –> 00:58:24,519
police commissioner said among those killed was a driver working
942
00:58:24,599 –> 00:58:28,800
for an online ride hailing service. When about twelve unidentified
943
00:58:28,920 –> 00:58:32,440
suspects arrived at the scene in two vehicles, opened fire
944
00:58:32,519 –> 00:58:36,239
on patrons inside the tavern and fled. At least ten
945
00:58:36,320 –> 00:58:38,320
wounded people were taken to hospital.
946
