If Buhari was a failure, Tinubuโ€™s govt is a disastrous catastrophe โ€“ Ex-minister |The Nigerian Newsletter

President Bola Tinubuโ€™s administration has been described as a disastrous catastrophe for the past two years.

This description of the present administration was given by a former Minister of Police Affairs, Adamu Waziri during an interview with Trust Television on Tuesday.

Waziri who described the Tinubu-led administration as a disaster compared to the much criticised government of the late former president Muhammadu Buhari.

He further stated that governance under Tinubuโ€™s administration is sliding the nation into a deeper crisis.

โ€œIf the Buhari government was a failure, the Tinubu government in the last two years is a disastrous catastrophe,โ€ he said.

He added that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Tinubu-led administration โ€œhas failed in all ramifications, and the country has regressed.โ€

Raising concerns over the growing insecurity across the states of the country, Waziri said corruption and economic hardship have spiked.

He added, โ€œThe economy is collapsing, ethnocentrism is at an all-time high, and insecurity continues to ravage many states.

โ€œI am surprised that people whose local governments are under the control of bandits can appear on national television to endorse this government,โ€ the former minister said.

He further called for an independent assessment of the present administrationโ€™s performance beyond optics and media appearances.

How Anambra Fish Seller Was Allegedly K! Lled The Nigerian Newsletter
Those boys came to his house.
They were already stationed and have been trailing him.

Immediately he entered, they entered too.
They ordered him out. He wrestled with one person who had a gun.

He held the gun and almost overpowered him, on the verge of his bravery attempt, the criminal's colleague then sho-t him in the leg
He kept groining in pain as he let go of the other guy.

The mum has also returned from the day's rally in the solidarity of Mr Governor.
When this was happening, she came out and asked those hoodlums what was happening and why they were harassing her son.
A brave mother who never knew it was ndi odinaka. They told her to come closer and know what was happening.

Partially paralyzed from G.unshot w.ounds, they dragged him inside the car and zoomed off. While driving off, they contacted the family.
They requested 3 million naira Ransom.
The mum transferred 2 Million, while the sister also transferred 1 million to them via a Nigerian Bank.

They were waiting for the call back on where to pick this young illustrious son who's the Number one fish farmer in the whole Anambra state.

They actually called back. This time around, they said she should go and pick her son's dea.d body in Amawbia..
Arriving there, they examined the body for extra gunshot wounds, they didn't see any except the one on his legs.
This means they allowed him to groin, cry and bleed to dea.th.

If there's nobody that'll get justice, Dear Charles Chukwuma Soludo, this boy's mum is serving you diligently.
He's also paying taxes to the state government as a business man

The DSS can trace these people from now till Sunday.

They just need to be instructed with small mobility. This is the state capital where we stay outside till 3 am because of the safety that comes with the capital cities

The Anambra State Police have arrested 24-year-old Somtochukwu Nwafor, girlfriend of a suspected ritualist, in connection with the gruesome murder of a pregnant nurse whose mutilated body was found in a soakaway pit in Ogbunike, Anambra State.

Police say the nurse was lured under the pretense of providing medical help, then killed by Chiemerie Obika Elobisi, who is now on the run. During interrogation, Nwafor confessed to cleaning up the crime scene and revealed that the victimโ€™s body parts were sold to native doctors.

Acting on her confession, police raided a local shrine and recovered human body parts, while launching a manhunt for the prime suspect and others involved. The State Commissioner of Police condemned the act and urged the public to provide helpful information.

Appeal Court Orders FRSC to Pay ABSU Lecturer โ‚ฆ10 Million Over Illegal Seizure of Driverโ€™s Licence

The Court of Appeal sitting in Owerri has awarded โ‚ฆ10 million in damages to Emmanuel Shebbs Ugochukwu, a lecturer at Abia State University (ABSU), against the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) for the unlawful seizure of his driverโ€™s licence.

A three-man panel of the appellate court, presided over by Hon. Justice Amina Audi Wambai, ruled in favour of Dr. Ugochukwu, affirming that the actions of FRSC officers along Bende Road, Umuahia, were illegal, abusive, and violated his fundamental rights.

According to court documents and statements made by the lecturer, the incident occurred when FRSC personnel stopped him for a routine check. After verifying that all his documents and safety items including a spare tyre and fire extinguisher were in order, one of the officers allegedly solicited a bribe.

โ€œI told them I was heading to the market and needed to withdraw cash from the ATM. I had no cash on me, so literally, I had no โ€˜somethingโ€™ to give,โ€ Dr. Ugochukwu recounted.

The situation quickly escalated. The officers conducted a second round of inspection and allegedly concocted new traffic offences, such as โ€œworn-out tyreโ€ or โ€œno spare tyre.โ€ His driverโ€™s licence was seized, and a โ‚ฆ3,000 fine was demanded.

Rather than pay or use his high-level connections to resolve the matter ,including reaching out to former students in government or law enforcement โ€” Dr. Ugochukwu chose to seek justice through the courts.

โ€œI remembered the many Nigerian youths who neither had connections nor ID cards , those who couldnโ€™t afford to โ€˜pay their way outโ€™ of an abusive law enforcement system,โ€ he said.

Initially, the High Court had awarded โ‚ฆ30 million in damages against the FRSC. However, the appellate court, while upholding the illegality of the FRSCโ€™s actions, reduced the amount to โ‚ฆ10 million in its unanimous judgment.
