In an effort to challenge and prove wrong the statement of Harrison Gwamnishu, a well known civilian volunteer assisting Nigeria security operatives with intelligence information that has led to the arrest and killing of suspected kidnappers in gun battle, that, he, Harrison Gwamnishu was never arrested or charged to court by the Nigeria Police Force over the ₦5.4 million he allegedly removed from the ₦20 million ranson he was contracted to handover to the kidnappers for the release and rescue of the married couple kidnapped in Aviele community in the Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State in late November 2025, a leading Nigeria social media influencer and Human Rights Activist, Martins Vincent Otse a.k.a VeryDarkMan on Tuesday night took to his social media pages and presented an apparent questionable court document, probably with malicious intent to manipulate and mislead unsuspecting members of the public inorder to malign the character of Harrison Gwamnishu, this, in the court document presented by VeryDarkMan, the alleged charge serial numbers were covered with a coloured ink, no date of court sitting was written on the court document, the document indicated that the alleged 3 count charges were drafted and signed on 18th December, 2025, a day before Harrison Gwamnishu was asked to go home from the police custody on December 19, 2025 while awaiting the advice of the Department of Public Prosecutor, DPP on the matter, and the apparent fraudulent court document did not show the officer or the person responsible for the court count charges, and VeryDarkMan apparently in a manipulative manner did not show the full signature and any name of the officer who authored the alleged court charges.

VeryDarkMan claimed in the video that the prosecutor wanted Harrison Gwamnishu jailed for six months but the judge he identified as Justice Etinosa Adekanmbi allegedly on her personal consideration; because of the Christman and New Year season and public intervention decided to grant Harrison Gwamnishu bail.

Harrison Gwamnishu says he was never arrested by the police or charged to court as speculated in the public spaces over the ₦5.4 million he allegedly removed out of the ₦20 million ransom he was given to hand over to kidnappers and as well apparently used the money as a bait to stage sting operation for the release and rescue of the husband and wife simply identified as Mr and Mrs Ibrahim kidnapped in Aviele community in the Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State, which generated public reactions after the kidnappers set free the wife and kept the husband in captivity on the ground that the money given to them was not complete, and some persons who have access to the apparent sensitive security information went public to create an impression as if Harrison Gwamnishu stole part of the ransom money, even when Harrison Gwamnishu explained to them that it is part of his operational procedures to remove some cash from the ransom money, his explanation apparently went on deaf ears, and people who maybe best described as mischief makers took advantage of the issue to call Harrison Gwamnishu names and re-open his alleged past deeds in a prejudiced manner to cast aspersions on him even when they knew that Harrison Gwamnishu has a long history with video evidences of assisting security operatives to rescue kidnapped victims and in some cases, the total money paid as ransom are recovered and returned to the victims’ families and the sting operation usually leads to the killing and arrest of the suspected kidnappers, this, according to Harrison Gwamnishu in a statement he issued through his verified Facebook account some hours ago, he was the one who personally submitted himself voluntarily to the Edo State Command of the Nigeria Police Force to enable the police investigate his action that he never had the intention of stealing the money and his action of removing some money from the ransom was part of his usual operational procedures, adding that, the police never charged him to court and while in self detention with the police, he became the cell president and he facilitated the release of four persons who were probably arrested and detained by the police unjustly for a crime the beneficiaries may know nothing about, and a video posted online by Harrison Gwamnishu on Monday night, showed he arrived home to the waiting hands of his elderly mother who was seen in the video singing, dancing with other family members, friends and well wishers and screaming loud with joy, while using one of her hands to caress the chest of her son, Harrison Gwamnishu during which she said a lot of prayers in her local dialect.

We had reported that the Nigeria Police Force under the leadership of IGP Kayode Egbetokun has kept mum since reports indicated that the US trained private intelligent officer, Harrison Gwamnishu who was invited to facilitate the rescue of a married couple, husband and wife simply identified as Mr and Mrs Ibrahim that was kidnapped since late November at their home in Aviele community, a village near Auchi Polytechnic in the Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State has been arrested and remanded to prison by a court sitting in Benin City, the Edo State capital over allegations that the private Intelligent Officer, Harrison Gwamnishu underpaid the ransom money given to him to give to the kidnappers to rescue the married couple in captivity, the reports of Harrison Gwamnishu’s arrest and subsequent remand to prison custody became wide spread after a popular Nigeria social media activist, Vincent Martins Otse in a video statement on Friday morning alleged that he has facilitated the arrest of the Private Intelligent Officer, Harrison Gwamnishu for allegedly removing ₦5.4 million fom the total amount given to him by the victims’ family to help pay as ransom to the kidnappers, this occurred, after the “Sting Operations” Gwamnishu had prepared the ransom money for, was probably aborted after a man, whose real names maybe Oshioreamhe Job Aseghemhe leaked, revealed and exposed the planned sensitive security information online, according to the suspect who leaked out the sensitive security operational plans of Gwamnishu, Harrison Gwamnishu never told the family he was going to remove some money from the ransom, that the kidnappers said the money was not complete hence only the wife was released, the man still held in captivity due to the incomplete ransom payment, the suspect, Oshioreamhe Job Aseghemhe in a video recorded statement stated that he was the one that helped facilitate the service of Harrison Gwamnishu when the family of the kidnapped victims requested for it, the action of the suspect may have prompted Harrison Gwamnishu to abort the “Sting Operations” obviously for the safety of his personal life and the lives of Nigeria soldiers and other security operatives he does use to execute and complete his Sting Operations against Kidnappers which often leads to the killing of the Kidnappers and recovering of the total ransom paid, for the purpose of clarity, “Sting Operations” is a deceptive practice and undercover tactics used by journalist or intelligent officer or security operative to get closer to a suspected criminal or criminals in order to be more familiar with the criminals and the environment they operate, and the deceptive practice may include the journalist or intelligent officer or security operative pretending to give ransom money to Kidnappers in a manner that can cause a delay and proper assessment of the environment before the security troops may launch offensive attack against the criminals, the action of Aseghemhe of leaking out sensitive security information may be of interest why Nigeria soldiers and other security operatives are being killed in large numbers whenever in previous and recent years the Nigeria security troops are on rescue missions including the recent mass killing of soldiers along with Brigadier General Uba Musa and civilian JTF members at Wajiroko village in Borno State by criminals.
