1
00:00:00,120 –> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: President Donald Trump of the United States US has announced

2
00:00:04,200 –> 00:00:06,679
plans to meet one on one with the President of

3
00:00:06,759 –> 00:00:11,400
China she Jimping at Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation APEC meeting

4
00:00:11,439 –> 00:00:15,400
coming this November in South Korea, and according to President Trump,

5
00:00:15,640 –> 00:00:18,079
he had a phone call with President Sheet to also

6
00:00:18,239 –> 00:00:20,879
pay a state visit to China early next year to

7
00:00:20,920 –> 00:00:24,440
discuss and find a possible solution to end Russia Ukraine

8
00:00:24,519 –> 00:00:27,280
War and the U S issue with the Chinese owned

9
00:00:27,359 –> 00:00:31,280
social networking company TikTok that may face complete ban in

10
00:00:31,320 –> 00:00:35,240
the United States if agreement is not reached on December sixteen,

11
00:00:35,439 –> 00:00:39,520
twenty twenty five. That aside, the United States government is

12
00:00:39,600 –> 00:00:43,600
currently being considered as a pseudo practitioner of free trade

13
00:00:43,640 –> 00:00:47,840
and free speech and freedom of association. Some observers accused

14
00:00:47,960 –> 00:00:51,399
U S government of monopoly in the technology industry that

15
00:00:51,479 –> 00:00:55,119
it wants to remain superior in the social networking business. Hence,

16
00:00:55,159 –> 00:00:58,960
the U S Government is demanding to own and controlled TikTok,

17
00:00:59,240 –> 00:01:02,719
trying to use all manners of manipulative and deceptive ways

18
00:01:02,799 –> 00:01:05,640
to force by dance to sell TikTok to Oracle and

19
00:01:05,719 –> 00:01:09,719
silver Lake, among others. Because of China government alleged control

20
00:01:09,799 –> 00:01:13,439
of TikTok algorithm and also allegedly having access to the

21
00:01:13,519 –> 00:01:16,799
data of US uses, interesting as it may be in

22
00:01:16,879 –> 00:01:20,439
the aspect of trying to apparently abuse freedom of association.

23
00:01:21,000 –> 00:01:25,000
United States government under President Donald Trump has revoked and

24
00:01:25,120 –> 00:01:30,000
denied visa to Palestinian President Mamoodabs and eighty other Palestinian

25
00:01:30,040 –> 00:01:32,879
authorities in ader for them probably not being able to

26
00:01:32,959 –> 00:01:36,640
attend the United Nations General Assembly meeting to speak out

27
00:01:36,680 –> 00:01:41,079
their minds against israel war in Gaza and other Palestinian territory,

28
00:01:41,359 –> 00:01:44,439
but other world leaders on Friday, in a vote of

29
00:01:44,519 –> 00:01:48,120
one hundred and forty five against five, permitted the Palestinian

30
00:01:48,159 –> 00:01:52,480
President Mamoudabbs to address the World Assembly via video call

31
00:01:52,599 –> 00:01:56,000
next week. China is one of the biggest economies in

32
00:01:56,040 –> 00:01:59,120
the world. Has been on loggerhead with its major trade rival,

33
00:01:59,519 –> 00:02:03,000
the United States since twenty eighteen during the first tenure

34
00:02:03,040 –> 00:02:06,280
of President Donald Trump, and its loggerhead with US has

35
00:02:06,400 –> 00:02:10,360
probably made China to maintain a strategic pro Russian position

36
00:02:10,400 –> 00:02:14,439
on the war in Ukraine, publicly claiming neutrality while allegedly

37
00:02:14,479 –> 00:02:19,840
providing essential economic and diplomatic support to Moscow. Reports indicated

38
00:02:19,879 –> 00:02:23,280
that Chinese officials privately admit that a Russian defeat would

39
00:02:23,319 –> 00:02:27,639
not serve Beijing’s interests, which center on its geopolitical rivalry

40
00:02:27,639 –> 00:02:33,120
with the United States. Also China’s state controlled media Shinwan

41
00:02:33,199 –> 00:02:38,199
News Agency, People’s Daily, China Central Television, which include China

42
00:02:38,280 –> 00:02:43,639
Global Television, China National Radio CNR, and China Radio International CREE,

43
00:02:44,039 –> 00:02:47,479
some of them always using the prominent social networking platform

44
00:02:47,560 –> 00:02:51,360
in China, the Waibo social media are frequently and apparently

45
00:02:51,439 –> 00:02:55,599
always amplifying Russian talking points, such as blaming and accusing

46
00:02:55,639 –> 00:02:59,840
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization NATO of expansionist agenda and

47
00:03:00,080 –> 00:03:04,039
the US for allegedly creating the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

48
00:03:04,680 –> 00:03:09,159
On TikTok. As of September twenty twenty five, TikTok continues

49
00:03:09,240 –> 00:03:12,319
to operate in the US, while its owner by Dance,

50
00:03:12,599 –> 00:03:15,680
negotiates a deal with American buyers to avoid a van

51
00:03:16,560 –> 00:03:19,599
the social networking app, which has since become one of

52
00:03:19,639 –> 00:03:22,800
the most used social media platforms in the world due

53
00:03:22,840 –> 00:03:26,919
to its favorable algorithm that challenged older existing social media

54
00:03:27,000 –> 00:03:30,639
platforms for low distribution of users contents. It may be

55
00:03:30,719 –> 00:03:33,360
true that there are certain things people do to others,

56
00:03:33,759 –> 00:03:36,759
they may not take the same from anyone. This assertion

57
00:03:36,840 –> 00:03:39,879
appeared to have come into play in the current administration

58
00:03:40,000 –> 00:03:43,759
of Nigeria President Bola Ahmed Talubu, who in the era

59
00:03:43,879 –> 00:03:48,560
of President Goodluck of Ballet Jonathan apparently used spin logic

60
00:03:48,680 –> 00:03:52,560
to always make false statements incite the public against the

61
00:03:52,560 –> 00:03:56,759
government destroy the reputation and personality of the then President

62
00:03:56,840 –> 00:04:00,080
good Luck of Belet Jonathan. As you may know, k

63
00:04:00,199 –> 00:04:04,319
logic in communication is a public relations campaign strategy that

64
00:04:04,439 –> 00:04:09,080
uses deliberate, biased, or misleading interpretations of events and information

65
00:04:09,240 –> 00:04:12,840
to influence public perception. In one of the viral videos

66
00:04:12,879 –> 00:04:15,759
between twenty twelve and twenty fourteen in the history of

67
00:04:15,840 –> 00:04:20,040
politics in Nigeria, President Bolahamed Tanubu, who was then a

68
00:04:20,120 –> 00:04:24,319
chieftain of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria ACN and

69
00:04:24,399 –> 00:04:29,040
later All Progressives Congress APC, allegedly told a gathering of

70
00:04:29,120 –> 00:04:32,000
thousands of people that the then President good Luck of

71
00:04:32,079 –> 00:04:36,519
Belet Jonathan said Nigeria citizens should face death or starve

72
00:04:36,600 –> 00:04:40,319
to death directly or indirectly, saying that the then President

73
00:04:40,399 –> 00:04:43,079
Jonathan did not care about the well being of his

74
00:04:43,199 –> 00:04:46,959
people till date. Tanubu has not shown any evidence to

75
00:04:47,040 –> 00:04:50,319
back up his claim that the people are hungry. President

76
00:04:50,399 –> 00:04:53,680
Jonathan said they should face death, and in some occasions,

77
00:04:54,000 –> 00:04:57,720
Tanubu called on the police not to attack protests. Specifically,

78
00:04:58,000 –> 00:05:01,959
on November twenty nine, twenty three, Tanubu tweeted by a

79
00:05:02,000 –> 00:05:06,160
tweeta now ex social media platform, that police do not

80
00:05:06,199 –> 00:05:10,240
attack protesters. Your children are involved, your lives are involved,

81
00:05:10,519 –> 00:05:14,920
Your children’s future lie here, and urged millions of Nigerians

82
00:05:14,920 –> 00:05:18,399
to protest peacefully against the Jonathan led government and in

83
00:05:18,480 –> 00:05:23,040
one of the protests, Occupy Niger, allegedly sponsored by Bola

84
00:05:23,160 –> 00:05:26,759
Ahmed Tanubu. According to Reno Omakri, who was then a

85
00:05:26,879 –> 00:05:31,199
media spokesperson to Jonathan, the then President Jonathan’s photo was

86
00:05:31,240 –> 00:05:33,360
placed on a coffin as a dead man and the

87
00:05:33,399 –> 00:05:37,839
coffin was labeled IP, meaning rest in peace. Also in

88
00:05:37,879 –> 00:05:42,519
February twenty eleven, as reported by Nigeria media, Tanubu described

89
00:05:42,519 –> 00:05:46,439
the then President good Luck Jonathan as a drunkard sinking fisherman,

90
00:05:46,879 –> 00:05:49,720
a word that appears to falsely describe the then President

91
00:05:49,839 –> 00:05:52,759
Jonathan as a man that always take too much of

92
00:05:52,800 –> 00:05:56,040
alcohol to the extent of losing control of his behavior

93
00:05:56,360 –> 00:05:59,519
but under the same Tanubu who is now the President

94
00:05:59,560 –> 00:06:04,120
of Nigeria. The State Security Service SSS, also known as

95
00:06:04,160 –> 00:06:07,639
the Department of State Service DSS, has filed a court

96
00:06:07,720 –> 00:06:11,879
case against Facebook and ex social media companies over a

97
00:06:11,879 –> 00:06:16,240
post published separately on August twenty fifth and twenty six,

98
00:06:16,360 –> 00:06:20,319
twenty twenty five by a well known human rights activist

99
00:06:20,360 –> 00:06:24,480
and anti government critic, Omiele Saware and his online media

100
00:06:24,879 –> 00:06:28,120
saha A Reporters and in the five count charges, the

101
00:06:28,199 –> 00:06:32,759
DSS accused Omielea Sawara of making defamatory or false statements

102
00:06:32,800 –> 00:06:36,720
against the person of President Bola Ahmed Tanubu for describing

103
00:06:36,720 –> 00:06:40,199
the President as a criminal after the president allegedly said

104
00:06:40,240 –> 00:06:43,800
there is no more corruption in Nigeria. In the legal battle,

105
00:06:44,040 –> 00:06:47,759
Homiele Saware has also gone to court to stop Facebook

106
00:06:48,279 –> 00:06:51,199
x social media from deleting his posts and sued the

107
00:06:51,279 –> 00:06:56,240
DSS for unconstitutional media censorship the DSS in the sub

108
00:06:56,319 –> 00:07:01,759
market fhc abj CR as people of Nepal in South

109
00:07:01,839 –> 00:07:05,000
Asia country took to the streets in an unprecedented manner

110
00:07:05,040 –> 00:07:07,959
to protest an end to corruption and bad leadership in

111
00:07:08,000 –> 00:07:10,639
the country during the week after a short lived ban

112
00:07:10,800 –> 00:07:15,160
on social media by the Nepalese government. Nigeria’s secret police,

113
00:07:15,240 –> 00:07:19,600
known as Department of State Security Services VSS, appeared to

114
00:07:19,639 –> 00:07:23,639
have doubled efforts, apparently to avert the unpleasant Nepal situation

115
00:07:23,839 –> 00:07:27,800
in the West Africa country, a situation where some politicians

116
00:07:27,920 –> 00:07:31,399
in the South Asia country tasted the bitter side of

117
00:07:31,480 –> 00:07:35,720
their citizens like never before. This, the DSS has appeared

118
00:07:35,720 –> 00:07:38,399
to be on the neck of ex social media management

119
00:07:38,519 –> 00:07:41,240
to ensure the deletion of a post tweeted by the

120
00:07:41,279 –> 00:07:44,879
founder of Sahara Reporters news Media and a well known

121
00:07:44,959 –> 00:07:49,600
anti government critic, Armiele Saware, that allegedly described the Nigeria

122
00:07:49,639 –> 00:07:53,800
President Bula Armed Tanubu as a criminal a statements Aware

123
00:07:53,920 –> 00:07:57,199
made in reaction to the words of President Bulla Hmed

124
00:07:57,279 –> 00:08:01,079
Tanubu over corruption in Nigeria y while the president was

125
00:08:01,120 –> 00:08:04,720
on official visit in Brazil. The DSS said Saware mis

126
00:08:04,720 –> 00:08:08,279
represented the President’s statement and as such, the supporters of

127
00:08:08,319 –> 00:08:11,800
the president are not happy over it. Hence, the security

128
00:08:11,920 –> 00:08:16,560
service demanded a retracted publication from Omilee Saware, but in

129
00:08:16,600 –> 00:08:20,360
a swift reaction, Omiele declined and accused the DSS of

130
00:08:20,439 –> 00:08:24,079
always acting illegally. In a letter written during the week

131
00:08:24,120 –> 00:08:26,879
and address to the Director General of the Department of

132
00:08:26,959 –> 00:08:31,519
State Services, Omilee said, I acknowledged receipt of your letter

133
00:08:31,839 –> 00:08:34,399
which you stealthily dumped with a security guard at the

134
00:08:34,399 –> 00:08:38,399
office of my attorneys in Abuja. Addressed to Abu Baka Marshal,

135
00:08:39,080 –> 00:08:42,320
I find your horrendous attempt at holding an unwarranted brief

136
00:08:42,360 –> 00:08:46,600
for the President not only insidious, but fundamentally defective, flawed

137
00:08:46,600 –> 00:08:51,559
in principle and absolutely unlawful. The State Security Service was

138
00:08:51,600 –> 00:08:56,240
not created as a security institution. The SSS, now self

139
00:08:56,279 –> 00:09:00,519
styled as the DSS, began as the e D Department

140
00:09:00,799 –> 00:09:04,399
Special Branch, an office established in nineteen forty eight and

141
00:09:04,440 –> 00:09:08,559
initially located in the office of the Inspector General of Police.

142
00:09:08,639 –> 00:09:13,240
It was later renamed the National Security Organization NSO, but

143
00:09:13,399 –> 00:09:17,480
on June fifth, nineteen eighty six, the Federal Military government

144
00:09:17,519 –> 00:09:21,559
issued Decree number nineteen dissolving the NSO and unbundling it

145
00:09:21,639 –> 00:09:26,120
into three entities, the SSS for domestic intelligence, the NIA

146
00:09:26,279 –> 00:09:30,240
for external intelligence and counterintelligence, and the DEER for military

147
00:09:30,279 –> 00:09:34,919
related intelligence. While the NEAR and DIA largely kept faith

148
00:09:35,000 –> 00:09:39,200
with their mandates. The SSS under successive Director generals has

149
00:09:39,279 –> 00:09:44,240
consistently acted bullishly, illegally and unlawfully, serving as a ready

150
00:09:44,279 –> 00:09:47,960
tool of oppression for dictatorial regimes bent on breaking rules

151
00:09:47,960 –> 00:09:52,159
and repressing the rights of the Nigerian people. Thus, it

152
00:09:52,240 –> 00:09:55,200
is no surprise that you have once again resumed repressive

153
00:09:55,200 –> 00:09:59,600
hostility against me. In nineteen ninety three, while I was

154
00:09:59,639 –> 00:10:04,159
student union president at the University of Lagos, policemen abducted

155
00:10:04,200 –> 00:10:08,080
me from the university gate during a peaceful pro democracy protest.

156
00:10:08,840 –> 00:10:11,799
I was taken to your Legos office after being driven

157
00:10:11,879 –> 00:10:15,080
around with my head tucked under a seat from our

158
00:10:15,200 –> 00:10:18,799
lower way in Akoi. I was detained unlawfully for weeks

159
00:10:18,799 –> 00:10:22,639
at the notorious inter center near Akoi Cemetery. It took

160
00:10:22,759 –> 00:10:25,639
several days of lecture boycotts to force your hand to

161
00:10:25,679 –> 00:10:30,519
release me without charges. Again. In January and Juni, Deputy

162
00:10:30,600 –> 00:10:35,679
Commissioner of Police DCP aluminiwa Adejobi has officially announced the

163
00:10:35,720 –> 00:10:40,360
appointment of Chief Superintendent of Police CSP. Benjamin Hundan as

164
00:10:40,399 –> 00:10:44,039
the new public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force

165
00:10:44,399 –> 00:10:48,799
after him, the former police Force spokesperson was promoted reassigned

166
00:10:48,799 –> 00:10:51,840
and redeployed to Delta State as the Deputy Commissioner of

167
00:10:51,879 –> 00:10:55,399
Police in charge of Operations, a sensitive position that has

168
00:10:55,480 –> 00:10:59,440
generated massive reactions from members of the public, especially those

169
00:10:59,480 –> 00:11:03,240
who widely believed that dcp olumi were used his officer’s

170
00:11:03,320 –> 00:11:07,279
force spokesperson to suppress freedom of speech by arresting and

171
00:11:07,320 –> 00:11:11,360

266
00:17:33,119 –> 00:17:36,000
has said that the West Africa country has no fear

267
00:17:36,079 –> 00:17:39,839
over whatever the President of the United States Donald Trump

268
00:17:39,920 –> 00:17:43,759
is doing, although the Nigeria President did not give details

269
00:17:43,839 –> 00:17:46,359
what the U s President is doing that the nation

270
00:17:46,599 –> 00:17:50,240
has no fear of. But President Tanubu, at a meeting

271
00:17:50,279 –> 00:17:54,400
with political leaders at the State House in Abuja on Tuesday,

272
00:17:54,519 –> 00:17:57,480
said that the country has met its revenue target for

273
00:17:57,559 –> 00:18:02,079
twenty twenty five from non oil rec sources, saying if

274
00:18:02,160 –> 00:18:05,799
Nigeria as at August has already met revenue target from

275
00:18:05,920 –> 00:18:09,200
non oil products. The country has no fear of whatever

276
00:18:09,240 –> 00:18:13,000
the President of the United States US is doing, adding

277
00:18:13,039 –> 00:18:17,079

the nyra currency is now performing well in the foreign

279
00:18:20,400 –> 00:18:23,720
exchange market, with a claim he met dollar exchange rate

280
00:18:23,759 –> 00:18:27,039
at one thousand, nine hundred nyrus per one dollar on

281
00:18:27,200 –> 00:18:30,480
May twenty ninth, twenty twenty three, when he took over

282
00:18:30,559 –> 00:18:34,240
as the president of the West Africa country, praising himself

283
00:18:34,279 –> 00:18:37,000
that he has worked hard to reduce the foreign exchange

284
00:18:37,079 –> 00:18:40,519
rate from one thousand, nine hundred nyrs to one thousand,

285
00:18:40,720 –> 00:18:44,079
four hundred and fifty nyrus per one dollar. Per claim,

286
00:18:44,400 –> 00:18:47,200
we fact check to be very incorrect. We observed the

287
00:18:47,240 –> 00:18:51,160
President boler Tanubu on May twenty ninth, twenty twenty three,

288
00:18:51,279 –> 00:18:54,720

289
00:18:54,799 –> 00:18:57,880

directing the Central Bank of Nigeria to ensure a unified

292
00:19:05,519 –> 00:19:09,039
exchange rate, a policy statement that made the exchange rate

293
00:19:09,079 –> 00:19:12,000
to increase from four hundred and sixty one nyras to

294
00:19:12,039 –> 00:19:15,039
eight hundred and fifty three nyras per one dollar at

295
00:19:15,079 –> 00:19:18,680
the end of twenty twenty three, after the President boler

296
00:19:18,759 –> 00:19:22,920
Armed Tanubu officially peg and increased the foreign exchange rate

297
00:19:23,000 –> 00:19:26,279
from four hundred and sixty one nyras to seven hundred

298
00:19:26,279 –> 00:19:29,599
and fifty nyers per one dollar in his twenty twenty

299
00:19:29,640 –> 00:19:32,920

300
00:19:33,039 –> 00:19:36,079
costs of living in the country to increase more than

301
00:19:36,160 –> 00:19:39,440

the foreign exchange rate from seven hundred and fifty nyras

304
00:19:47,200 –> 00:19:50,880
to one thousand, five hundred nyras per one dollar. This

305
00:19:50,920 –> 00:19:54,079
policy action of the president has since made cost of

306
00:19:54,119 –> 00:19:58,759
foodstuffs and other basic necessities in Nigeria to increase outrageously

307
00:19:58,839 –> 00:20:02,160
more than seven hundred percent with no reduction till date.

308
00:20:02,759 –> 00:20:05,440

00:22:07,440 –> 00:22:10,680
according to Baridotman, soon after the death of the accident

341
00:22:10,799 –> 00:22:14,720
victim was announced on Sunday, bloggers started publishing the news

342
00:22:14,759 –> 00:22:19,720
stories massively continuing. Veridartmund accused Fina of being a greedy person,

343
00:22:20,160 –> 00:22:23,319
saying Fina wrote a demand list of one billion naira

344
00:22:23,440 –> 00:22:27,279
to Dangotte even when she has not visited her sister

345
00:22:27,440 –> 00:22:30,400
in the hospital to know the true picture of her condition.

346
00:22:30,839 –> 00:22:34,000
In a swift reaction, a well known sex educator who

347
00:22:34,079 –> 00:22:38,519
uses raw words to pass across her teachings iziogbeog Bede

348
00:22:38,680 –> 00:22:41,920
a k a Echia Queen condemned the act of Veridartmund,

349
00:22:42,000 –> 00:22:44,599
saying it was the alleged greed of Fena that killed

350
00:22:44,640 –> 00:22:48,359
her sister, with echiaquin accusing Veridartmun of being a liar

351
00:22:48,400 –> 00:22:51,519
who is trying to cause more pains to the bereaved Fena,

352
00:22:51,599 –> 00:22:54,640
even when he knows her sister just died less than

353
00:22:54,680 –> 00:22:58,279
forty eight hours ago. Earlier before to day, when the

354
00:22:58,359 –> 00:23:02,359
accident victim ruth if Ottibor was still alive, Veri Darkman

355
00:23:02,440 –> 00:23:06,079
published a video narrating how Fena allegedly betrayed him when

356
00:23:06,160 –> 00:23:10,079
Dangotte Group invited her for possible settlement. After Veri Dartmann

357
00:23:10,119 –> 00:23:12,920
and many others in the society took to their social

358
00:23:12,960 –> 00:23:17,000
media page to campaign and protest over the Dangotte truck accident,

359
00:23:17,079 –> 00:23:20,480
reportedly leading to immediate amputation of the two legs of

360
00:23:20,519 –> 00:23:25,759
the female victim, Ruth Ottibor, Veridartmund said when Fina got

361
00:23:25,759 –> 00:23:29,119
the attention of Dangotte Group, Fina sent a message to

362
00:23:29,200 –> 00:23:32,400
him that the Dangotte group requested that they don’t want him.

363
00:23:32,640 –> 00:23:37,000
Veridartman in the discussion an action Veridartman considered to be

364
00:23:37,079 –> 00:23:39,960
that Fina was the one that betrayed him, apparently because

365
00:23:39,960 –> 00:23:42,960
of money. It is yet to be ascertained if truly

366
00:23:43,000 –> 00:23:47,480
the Dangotte Group rejected Veridartmann in the discussion, but if

367
00:23:47,480 –> 00:23:50,079
the claim is confirmed to be true, we believe the

368
00:23:50,119 –> 00:23:54,319
Dangotte Group may have rejected Veridartman because verd Artmann apparently

369
00:23:54,359 –> 00:23:58,119
insulted the person and the personality of Aliko Dangotte, the

370
00:23:58,160 –> 00:24:01,119
founder of the Dangotte Group, while he was protesting over

371
00:24:01,160 –> 00:24:05,200
the accident in the nine minute video. On Tuesday, Veri

372
00:24:05,279 –> 00:24:08,319
Dagmann withdrew his earlier statement and a threat he had

373
00:24:08,319 –> 00:24:12,240
issued that if anything happened to Fena’s sister, he would

374
00:24:12,279 –> 00:24:15,759
travel to Auchi and insure Dangotte operations were shut down

375
00:24:15,799 –> 00:24:18,880
in Auchi. He said on Tuesday that he would no

376
00:24:18,960 –> 00:24:22,640
longer travel to Auchi because of Fena’s sister, adding that

377
00:24:23,000 –> 00:24:25,920
if Dangotte track hit another person, he would do what

378
00:24:26,000 –> 00:24:29,200
he had earlier said. He said he decided not to

379
00:24:29,240 –> 00:24:32,400
travel to out Solomon Ejigia to all arasy may be

380
00:24:32,519 –> 00:24:35,759
the true definition of the populace, saying that police is

381
00:24:35,799 –> 00:24:39,000
your friend if only you are a good character police officer.

382
00:24:39,279 –> 00:24:43,680
The former Inspector General of Police, Solomon Ejigia tour Rasay

383
00:24:43,799 –> 00:24:47,480
apparently validated the aforesaid statement to be true when his

384
00:24:47,640 –> 00:24:52,039
death was announced on Sunday, August thirty first, twenty twenty five.

385
00:24:52,480 –> 00:24:56,720
The death sparked uncommon good words of condolences from many Nigerians.

386
00:24:57,119 –> 00:25:01,519
Unlike before, millions of Nigerians make negat comments against dead

387
00:25:01,599 –> 00:25:05,240
top government officials, but in the case of Rasay, millions

388
00:25:05,279 –> 00:25:08,880
of Nigerians took to their social media pages and comments

389
00:25:08,920 –> 00:25:12,680
sections to say good things about the IGP that police

390
00:25:12,759 –> 00:25:17,440
the Nigeria States between April twenty fifteen and June twenty sixteen.

391
00:25:17,880 –> 00:25:21,640
Even human rights activists that always talk negative about the

392
00:25:21,759 –> 00:25:26,000
Nigeria Police Force like Barrister Adi Andju Deji was among

393
00:25:26,079 –> 00:25:28,799
the earliest mourners on Sunday to be at the residence

394
00:25:28,839 –> 00:25:31,759
of the late High GP to pay a condolence visit

395
00:25:31,799 –> 00:25:35,440
with a tribute saying, may the soul of former IGP

396
00:25:35,680 –> 00:25:39,680
Solomon Arasay rest in peace. In my about twenty years

397
00:25:39,680 –> 00:25:42,480
of knowing him, He helped us get freedom for many

398
00:25:42,519 –> 00:25:46,680
student union leaders and comrades who were unlawfully detained as

399
00:25:46,720 –> 00:25:50,759
IGP and after his retirement, we remained close and continued

400
00:25:50,799 –> 00:25:54,279
to seek his help whenever citizens rights were abused. We

401
00:25:54,400 –> 00:25:58,200
also observed that many serving and retired police officers like

402
00:25:58,319 –> 00:26:02,759
DCP Aluminimwa added Jobi, had took to their personal social

403
00:26:02,839 –> 00:26:06,519
media accounts to tell the world how good Solomon Eega

404
00:26:06,640 –> 00:26:11,000

408
00:26:23,920 –> 00:26:27,880
Police Force offices are online and reading comments. Hopefully we

409
00:26:27,920 –> 00:26:30,359
would get something like this to be written for them

410
00:26:30,400 –> 00:26:34,680

00:30:52,640 –> 00:30:56,559
the accident occurred barely six days after Ruth celebrated of

of Higher Learning. The certificate may now be awarded to

479
00:31:09,319 –> 00:31:13,000
her posthumously. The sudden loss has left the Ottagor family
