1
00:00:00,120 –> 00:00:04,679
Speaker 1: Sulisu Mohammad aka Dogo Salah, at twenty one years old,

2
00:00:04,759 –> 00:00:08,599
bandits kingpin that has been terrorizing Nigerians along the Kaduna,

3
00:00:09,119 –> 00:00:11,919
the Koja and Enugu Highway, was earlier in the month

4
00:00:12,039 –> 00:00:15,320
traced and arrested by men of the Nigeria Police Force.

5
00:00:15,720 –> 00:00:19,679
But after he was captured by the Special Police Security Operatives,

6
00:00:20,079 –> 00:00:24,000
the Federal Capital Territory FCT police commands said some of

7
00:00:24,039 –> 00:00:27,440
his gang members laid ambush against the police operatives which

8
00:00:27,559 –> 00:00:31,960
led to exchange of gunfire and eventually the arrested bandits kingpin,

9
00:00:32,359 –> 00:00:36,000
Dogo Sala sustained gunshot injuries from the bullets fired by

10
00:00:36,039 –> 00:00:38,880
his gang members who came for his rescue during the

11
00:00:38,960 –> 00:00:41,840
gun battle with the police, and he was pronounced dead

12
00:00:41,920 –> 00:00:45,000
when he was rushed to the hospital for treatment. The

13
00:00:45,039 –> 00:00:48,000
age of the suspected bandits leader may be another pointer

14
00:00:48,119 –> 00:00:51,479
that most heinous crimes in Nigeria are committed by underage

15
00:00:51,560 –> 00:00:54,600
children who are often misled into the crime by adults.

16
00:00:55,399 –> 00:00:58,359
This may explain further that since the beginning of the year,

17
00:00:58,840 –> 00:01:01,880
when one of the state gun in the West Africa country,

18
00:01:02,280 –> 00:01:06,079
Governor Charles Chukuma Saludo of enamors State decided to take

19
00:01:06,159 –> 00:01:09,400
the war against criminality to the doorsteps of group of

20
00:01:09,480 –> 00:01:14,640
suspected criminally minded people known as Babelawo or spiritual native doctors,

21
00:01:15,159 –> 00:01:18,000
believed to be the ones during the underage children into

22
00:01:18,079 –> 00:01:21,400
crime with the magical practice of okite, which gives them

23
00:01:21,439 –> 00:01:24,200
the belief they can’t be caught and police bullets wouldn’t

24
00:01:24,200 –> 00:01:27,920
penetrate them. Cases of kidnapping and other crimes apparently have

25
00:01:28,040 –> 00:01:32,200
reduced in the southeast state. Our crime reporters observed and

26
00:01:32,280 –> 00:01:35,400
reported that the high rate of kidnapping and killings usually

27
00:01:35,439 –> 00:01:38,959
prevalent in Enamra State, especially along the Initia where a

28
00:01:39,040 –> 00:01:43,079
federal road, has come almost to a haul since January seventeenth,

29
00:01:43,159 –> 00:01:46,719
twenty twenty five, when Governor Sludo went harder on the

30
00:01:46,719 –> 00:01:50,519
suspected root causes of crimes in the state, the Babelawos

31
00:01:50,599 –> 00:01:55,200
or spiritual Native doctors. Our editorial team also observed that

32
00:01:55,239 –> 00:01:58,200
the Enamor’s State Police command now go to schools and

33
00:01:58,280 –> 00:02:02,439
other public places for enlighten and campaign awareness against crime,

34
00:02:02,519 –> 00:02:05,480
most especially calling on the residents to stop the every

35
00:02:05,519 –> 00:02:09,120
Monday sit at home order. But the Biafra secessionist armed

36
00:02:09,120 –> 00:02:11,960
groups have continued to issue threats of attack if the

37
00:02:12,000 –> 00:02:15,039
weekly sit at home is not obeyed until the detained

38
00:02:15,039 –> 00:02:21,240
Biafra agitation leader Marzi Namdi Kanu is released. Interestingly, major

39
00:02:21,360 –> 00:02:24,639
arrests made by a Nambra State police command recently over

40
00:02:24,680 –> 00:02:27,560
the kidnapping and subsequent killing of the State House of

41
00:02:27,599 –> 00:02:32,520
Assembly lawmaker Honorable Justice Azuka indicated that some heinous crimes

42
00:02:32,560 –> 00:02:35,520
in the state are committed by underage children, as most

43
00:02:35,560 –> 00:02:39,520
of the suspects were mainly nineteen years old, indicating they

44
00:02:39,560 –> 00:02:42,800
were already into high profile criminal acts when they were

45
00:02:42,840 –> 00:02:47,080
not up to the constitutional age of eighteen. Similarly, two

46
00:02:47,120 –> 00:02:50,080
of the arrested suspects behind the kidnapping and killing of

47
00:02:50,159 –> 00:02:53,919
Honorable Justice Azuka escaped from the police custody in a manner.

48
00:02:54,319 –> 00:02:57,639
The Enamras State Police Command believed that the police operatives

49
00:02:57,719 –> 00:03:01,240
under whose custody the two suspects escape have case to answer.

50
00:03:01,960 –> 00:03:04,919
The police command through the person of the command public

51
00:03:05,000 –> 00:03:10,360
relations officer Toschukuakenga, in a TV interview on February twenty eighth,

52
00:03:10,520 –> 00:03:14,479
twenty twenty five, said that the entire police personnel who

53
00:03:14,520 –> 00:03:17,520
went on the operation were arrested and detained because there

54
00:03:17,560 –> 00:03:20,080
were more professional ways they could have carried out the

55
00:03:20,120 –> 00:03:24,439
operation without going with the escaped suspects. According to the

56
00:03:24,439 –> 00:03:29,840
Punch newspaper, a twenty one year old notorious banded leader, Solisumahammad,

57
00:03:30,159 –> 00:03:33,240

displaying superior tactical expertise and resilience. The bandits were ultimately

79
00:05:03,000 –> 00:05:05,959

public to report suspicious activities via police emergency lines.

111
00:07:33,240 –> 00:07:36,839
Speaker 2: Zuka himself of blessed memory is also involved.

112
00:07:37,079 –> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 3: So you allowed criminals to drive? Why police a articn doctors.

113
00:07:42,680 –> 00:07:47,319
Speaker 4: Those policemen shouldn’t have gone with those suspects to the scene.

114
00:07:47,399 –> 00:07:51,199
There are so many other strategies to arrest that mister aculism.

115
00:07:51,600 –> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: So you should have been prevented.

116
00:07:53,160 –> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 4: In the issue of preventing it, you understand that destiny

117
00:07:57,199 –> 00:08:01,319
can be changed. You’re admitting to police you can be

118
00:08:01,439 –> 00:08:05,160
police more than us. All the officers involving in that operation.

119
00:08:05,360 –> 00:08:09,480
It’s currently in costed while we have activated other teams

120
00:08:09,800 –> 00:08:12,399
to make sure that the suspect that is on their

121
00:08:12,399 –> 00:08:15,759
own well rearrest them un unrested. This command is more

122
00:08:15,800 –> 00:08:19,959
pained than what you are feeling. Now we have nothing

123
00:08:20,000 –> 00:08:22,800
to hide. It’s still us that came out and led

124
00:08:22,839 –> 00:08:25,839
the members of the public. It is still us that

125
00:08:26,000 –> 00:08:28,759
is still giving members of the public to know that

126
00:08:29,000 –> 00:08:32,279
we are pained in this process and part of what

127
00:08:32,440 –> 00:08:36,320
we are doing. It will also give us edge to

128
00:08:36,399 –> 00:08:38,639
make people to trust us again, just as we have

129
00:08:38,720 –> 00:08:48,480
been preaching. And how is it possible that on armed

130
00:08:48,679 –> 00:08:53,639
two young boys there are no professional athletes, They are

131
00:08:53,639 –> 00:08:57,440
not personal runners. There are not people that have gone

132
00:08:57,480 –> 00:08:58,720
to Olympics.

133
00:08:58,279 –> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 3: And came back. How do you do you want the

134
00:09:00,720 –> 00:09:04,559
public to believe and accept that people that are on

135
00:09:04,679 –> 00:09:08,320
their food are run police officers that are trained doll

136
00:09:08,840 –> 00:09:12,200
that should be running better than them. And then given

137
00:09:12,320 –> 00:09:15,399
that they are with gons to that you can shoot

138
00:09:15,720 –> 00:09:19,360
and the person just to to the person stops running,

139
00:09:19,559 –> 00:09:21,720
then talk more of that you can even shoot the person.

140
00:09:21,960 –> 00:09:24,600
How do you want the public to actually understand that

141
00:09:24,600 –> 00:09:27,679
they outran police officers that are with gon that can

142
00:09:27,720 –> 00:09:28,440
shoot them down.

143
00:09:28,759 –> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 2: When something want to happen, it will happen.

144
00:09:31,919 –> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 4: My style of policing is preventive policing accepts it is

145
00:09:36,440 –> 00:09:37,440
destined to happen.

146
00:09:37,559 –> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 2: But first of all, I most prevent it.

147
00:09:40,759 –> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 4: I’m not here are I said, let’s not be passionate

148
00:09:44,440 –> 00:09:51,879
about this because embrasded, umbrasdedn embrasded. Please command is more

149
00:09:51,919 –> 00:09:56,240
pain than what you are feeling. Now, remember the family,

150
00:09:56,399 –> 00:10:00,120
the community, the consistency he represents, we also need to

151
00:10:00,200 –> 00:10:03,000
explain to them. So why I say that my style

152
00:10:03,039 –> 00:10:07,480
of policing is preventive policing accept is destined to happen

153
00:10:07,679 –> 00:10:11,120
in that context, is saying that those policemen shouldn’t have

154
00:10:11,679 –> 00:10:13,080
gone with those.

155
00:10:12,840 –> 00:10:15,279
Speaker 2: Suspects to the scene. There are so many.

156
00:10:15,159 –> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 4: Other strategies to arrest that mister aqualism, So you should

157
00:10:19,159 –> 00:10:22,240
have been prevented. So in the issue of preventing it,

158
00:10:22,559 –> 00:10:26,720
you understand that destiny can be changed. So now, in

159
00:10:26,759 –> 00:10:30,120
the context of you saying that the policemen they are trained,

160
00:10:30,240 –> 00:10:36,279
the suspects are not Olympic they are not athletes that

161
00:10:36,399 –> 00:10:40,240
should have run. Remember, these are criminals, and as much

162
00:10:40,320 –> 00:10:43,879
as we are not making excuses for them running away,

163
00:10:44,080 –> 00:10:47,519
but we are also blaming our officers for that own

164
00:10:47,559 –> 00:10:51,080
professional ad So the contest of year trying to explain

165
00:10:51,399 –> 00:10:54,159
on how it happened and how it not happened, we

166
00:10:54,279 –> 00:10:57,519
have done that. But please trust us again, we are

167
00:10:57,759 –> 00:11:00,200
doing everything possible to make sure.

168
00:11:00,159 –> 00:11:02,039
Speaker 2: That these aspects are back.

169
00:11:02,360 –> 00:11:06,519
Speaker 3: For How long are we working with any type? Are

170
00:11:06,559 –> 00:11:09,960
you saying give us seven days? Are saying give us

171
00:11:10,000 –> 00:11:12,120
two weeks? Or is it in definite?

172
00:11:12,279 –> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 2: It’s not in definite.

173
00:11:13,679 –> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 4: Since that incident happened, the command has been coming up

174
00:11:17,120 –> 00:11:19,600
with updates on what we are doing.

175
00:11:19,720 –> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: It has happened on February eighth, right, yes, and today’s

176
00:11:23,639 –> 00:11:24,879
or February that is twenty days.

177
00:11:24,960 –> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: Twenty days. Yes, I was still.

178
00:11:26,440 –> 00:11:29,639
Speaker 3: Saying that we should trust you again it is two weeks.

179
00:11:30,080 –> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: Yes.

180
00:11:30,600 –> 00:11:33,519
Speaker 4: Why I’m saying this is because it happened on it.

181
00:11:33,919 –> 00:11:37,000
Part of what the command is investigating is also to

182
00:11:37,120 –> 00:11:41,399
know why the policemen that are involving the operations did

183
00:11:41,440 –> 00:11:46,240
not let the management team know about this incident for

184
00:11:46,440 –> 00:11:49,759
ten days. So we are still grilling that part to

185
00:11:49,840 –> 00:11:52,080
know whether there is conspiracy or not. Do you think

186
00:11:52,120 –> 00:11:55,919
there is investigations there? So there are so many things

187
00:11:55,960 –> 00:11:58,600
that we are looking at. That is the part of

188
00:11:58,720 –> 00:12:01,360
we’re calling on members of the public to trust us.

189
00:12:01,600 –> 00:12:04,799
Remember it is still an ambrasceded police command that came

190
00:12:04,799 –> 00:12:07,080
out and let the members of the public know that

191
00:12:07,559 –> 00:12:10,919
still the suspects that we haven’t in our costudy in

192
00:12:10,960 –> 00:12:14,240
the course of going for an operation to arrest another

193
00:12:14,519 –> 00:12:15,559
to escape.

194
00:12:15,440 –> 00:12:17,759
Speaker 3: After more than a week or people do not come.

195
00:12:19,399 –> 00:12:22,519
Speaker 4: It twok days then as much as it took days,

196
00:12:22,639 –> 00:12:24,879
but we still said it then on the part of

197
00:12:25,120 –> 00:12:27,639
it took days. The operators that are involved in that

198
00:12:27,759 –> 00:12:30,360
operation are currently in con study. Part of what we

199
00:12:30,440 –> 00:12:33,879
are doing is to know why they conceal that information.

200
00:12:34,000 –> 00:12:36,879
Speaker 3: I’m asking you, how do we know that these police

201
00:12:36,919 –> 00:12:40,039
officers are in cost study and they are being drailed

202
00:12:40,080 –> 00:12:43,879
and grailed just like you’re saying you because you can’t

203
00:12:43,080 –> 00:12:47,120
command and say anything, say anything, how do we know

204
00:12:47,200 –> 00:12:48,080
that they are in custed.

205
00:12:48,360 –> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 4: You’re saying this on the space of distrust, but I

206
00:12:51,759 –> 00:12:56,039
am telling you to trust us again and for policemen

207
00:12:56,480 –> 00:12:59,519
to go on the process of the level of what

208
00:12:59,559 –> 00:13:04,159
you’re saying in now being dictated made public is a process.

209
00:13:04,399 –> 00:13:07,000
When we get to that extent, we do that process.

210
00:13:07,200 –> 00:13:09,399
But for now, I just don’t want to say all

211
00:13:09,440 –> 00:13:13,480
our strategy, but we ask questions. We interviewed them one

212
00:13:13,519 –> 00:13:17,639
after the order to get fats and discripeancis of what

213
00:13:17,720 –> 00:13:20,679
they said previously and what they’re currently saying now. So

214
00:13:21,279 –> 00:13:24,480
these are things that we are doing. And remember the

215
00:13:24,559 –> 00:13:28,159
senior officers among them have been queried and part of

216
00:13:28,240 –> 00:13:29,000
the query.

217
00:13:28,960 –> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 2: Is to respond.

218
00:13:29,840 –> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: Then on our own we have taken their statements because

219
00:13:32,960 –> 00:13:36,840
we are treating them as suspects. Now trust is a

220
00:13:36,919 –> 00:13:41,960
double dsode yes, and is a process yes, d yes.

221
00:13:42,000 –> 00:13:45,600
It’s end for us. For us to get to this stage.

222
00:13:45,720 –> 00:13:48,840
Part of what you have to know and our followers

223
00:13:48,879 –> 00:13:51,360
to know this is that we have nothing to hide.

224
00:13:51,480 –> 00:13:54,279
It’s still us that came out and led the members

225
00:13:54,279 –> 00:13:56,600
of the public room. It is still us that is

226
00:13:56,639 –> 00:13:59,639
still giving members of the public and our followers to

227
00:13:59,799 –> 00:14:03,120
know that we are pained in this process and part

228
00:14:03,159 –> 00:14:06,360
of what we are doing and we know it will

229
00:14:06,399 –> 00:14:10,240
also give us edge to make people to trust us again,

230
00:14:10,440 –> 00:14:14,039
just as we have been preaching is to realize the suspects.

231
00:14:14,360 –> 00:14:19,360
And I’m telling you that we are doing everything legally

232
00:14:19,399 –> 00:14:22,440
possible to make sure that these suspects are in custody.

233
00:14:22,600 –> 00:14:25,679
Speaker 3: One of the main reasons why we invited you here

234
00:14:25,720 –> 00:14:29,879
today is to talk about the trending matter of Honorable

235
00:14:30,080 –> 00:14:34,960
Justice Azoka, the member representing on it and not one

236
00:14:35,159 –> 00:14:41,120
constituency that was cruciomly modered after being kidnapped and detained

237
00:14:41,159 –> 00:14:44,279
for some days and everything. There are so many things

238
00:14:44,279 –> 00:14:47,440
to the story. So now I’m asking you, as the

239
00:14:47,480 –> 00:14:50,960

what happened to Honorable Justice as Hoka.

241
00:14:54,120 –> 00:14:58,159
Speaker 4: Please go ahead, Honorable Justice Asuka. I pray that God

242
00:14:58,200 –> 00:15:01,440
will grant him peace. Also, you know that an ambrassda

243
00:15:01,519 –> 00:15:05,080
Please Command is doing everything possible to make sure that

244
00:15:05,559 –> 00:15:09,679

00:15:09,840 –> 00:15:12,840
