AAU BOLSTERS CAMPUS SECURITY AFTER FATAL INCIDENT INVOLVING NON STUDENT
Ekpoma – Ambrose Alli University (AAU) has taken decisive action to tighten campus security following the tragic killing of a non-student on university grounds. At a press briefing held on Thursday at the administrative building, Acting Vice-Chancellor Prof. Sunday Olowo Samuel emphasized that the victim was an intruder, not a student, dispelling earlier speculation.
According to Prof. Samuel, the unidentified man was forcibly brought into the campus in a vehicle, attacked near one of the hostels, and subsequently killed in a nearby bushland.
In response, the institution has barred unauthorized individual students and visitors alike from driving onto campus without proper identification and engagement with armed security personnel to fortify access control.
The decision follows reports that unscrupulous individuals, including internet fraudsters commonly known as “Yahoo Boys,” had been using the university as a hideout. Management views the heightened security as essential to preserving peace, especially with suspects already apprehended and transferred to the State CID in Benin City.
Prof. Samuel also highlighted the broader context: under his stewardship, AAU has seen notable reforms, including improvements in academic processing, reinstatement of displaced staff, and new scholarship and digital initiatives. These strides, he says, reflect renewed institutional harmony a stability recognized with the “Niger Delta Award for the Most Peaceful Educational Institution in Nigeria,” while he received the “Niger Delta Peace Ambassador Award” for his leadership.
The administration has affirmed that peace had been restored. With the security enhancements now in place, students, staff, and visitors can expect a safer, more orderly campus environment.

SOUTHERN PDP LEADERS REJECT "ILLEGAL" ZONING MEETING, WARN OF DIVISION WITHIN PARTY

The crisis rocking the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has deepened, as key Southern stakeholders have rejected a purported zoning consultative summit held in Lagos on August 21, 2025.

Prominent party leaders including state chairmen from Imo, Abia, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, and Rivers States, as well as national officers, senators, and former governors condemned the meeting as illegal, exclusionary, and unrepresentative of the collective interests of the South.

They expressed outrage over the deliberate sidelining of key figures such as National Assembly leaders, National Working Committee members, and notable Southern party chieftains.

The group asserted that the gathering lacked legitimacy, as it failed to follow due party processes and had not been sanctioned by the broader Southern PDP leadership.

In a strongly worded statement, the Southern PDP leaders declared any communiqués or resolutions from the so-called summit null and void, insisting that any decisions on zoning and power rotation must stem from transparent, inclusive consultations involving all stakeholders.

They accused the meeting’s conveners of pursuing narrow interests under the guise of party unity and warned that endorsing outcomes from such a secretive forum would only deepen internal rifts.

Reaffirming their commitment to party cohesion and fairness, they called on the PDP's National Working Committee (NWC) and National Executive Committee (NEC) to disregard the meeting’s outcome or face firm resistance grounded in the party's constitution and democratic values.

EDO CULT CLASH TURNS DEADLY: ONE KILLED, SHRINES SEALED AS GOVERNMENT DECLARES CRACKDOWN
A deadly clash between rival cult groups, the Eiye and Maphite confraternities, in Evboyare Community, Uhunmwode LGA of Edo State, has left one person, identified as Festus, dead. According to a statement from the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Monday Okpebholo, Fred Itua, and the coordinator of the state’s Special Security Squad, Idemudia Noah, the confrontation was sparked by a community dispute that spiraled into bloodshed. The residence of Felix Aigbedion, an alleged Maphite leader believed to have orchestrated the violence, has been sealed and he is now declared wanted. When operatives arrived, the community was deserted, with signs of widespread destruction to property. Two locally-made fi****ms were recovered from a poultry house being used as a cult armory.
In a related operation, security agents uncovered a secluded shrine behind an unoccupied house in Egbaen, Egor LGA, owned by one Marvellous Adetarami. The discovery included a white casket and ritual items used for cult initiation.

The property was sealed immediately by order of the state government, signaling a zero-tolerance stance on both physical and spiritual enablers of cultism.

Noah warned cultists to denounce their affiliations or vacate Edo, stressing that the government is fully committed to restoring peace, protecting communities, and prosecuting offenders. Evidence of extortion and forced financial transfers during initiations has further intensified the investigation, with police already pursuing arrests and legal action.

ANTI-CULTISM WAR: EDO STATE GOVERNMENT SEALS SHRINES, DECLARES CULT LEADERS WANTED

The Edo State Government has intensified its sweeping campaign against cultism, criminal gangs, and ritual practices. It has sealed multiple properties linked to suspected cult leaders following the discovery of a shrine in Egbaen community and a violent confrontation in Evboyare that claimed a life.

The coordinated operation, codenamed “Operation Flush Out Cultists and Kidnappers”, was led by the Squad’s coordinator, Idemudia Noah, in collaboration with allied security agencies.

Acting on intelligence reports, operatives stormed a residence in Egbaen, Egor Local Government Area, in the early hours of Wednesday, August 20, 2025. Though the building was unoccupied, a search uncovered a secluded shrine at the rear of the premises.

Inside, officers found a white casket and fe**sh items believed to have been used for initiation rituals and other clandestine activities.

In swift response, the Edo State Government ordered the immediate sealing of the property, an emphatic signal of its resolve to dismantle the physical and spiritual infrastructure sustaining cultism across the State.

Simultaneously, security forces moved to Evboyare community in Uhunmwode Local Government Area, which had been the scene of a bloody clash between rival confraternities, the Eiye and Maphite, leaving one person, identified as Festus, dead.

The residence of the alleged Maphite leader, Felix Aigbedion, was sealed after intelligence linked him to the crisis.

Aigbedion, now declared wanted, is believed to have masterminded the assault during a community dispute that spiraled into cult violence.

By the time operatives arrived, Evboyare lay in desolation. Homes, vehicles, and personal property bore the marks of destruction, while spent cartridges littered the ground; grim evidence of the crossfire that terrorized residents and forced families to flee.

Two locally made fi****ms were recovered from a poultry house, which investigators identified as a makeshift armory for cultists.

Speaking after the operation, Idemudia Noah reaffirmed the Government’s uncompromising posture.

“The administration of Governor Monday Okpebholo is unwavering in its determination to purge Edo State of cult-related violence and criminal syndicates. We have sealed the property of Mr. Felix Aigbedion, who has been implicated in the fatal clash at Evboyare, as well as the Egbaen residence of Mr. Marvellous Adetarami, where a shrine was uncovered. These measures are not symbolic. They are a clear statement that clandestine activities will no longer find sanctuary in Edo State," he noted.

Investigations, Noah disclosed, also unearthed disturbing evidence of extortion during initiation processes, including the forced transfer of money from victims to cultists. He stressed that the Police had been fully briefed and are pursuing prosecutions.

In his warning to criminal elements, Noah declared: “Cultists have only two options: renounce or leave Edo State. The full weight of the law will descend on anyone who persists. This government is committed to securing Edo for its people and ensuring peace, stability, and a safe environment for commerce and community life."
