According to the Anambra state commissioner of police, Garba Umar, Not less than 700 suspected cultists and 38 suspected armed robbers have been arrested in different parts of the state in the last three weeks.
He told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday, July 23 in Awka that the arrests were clear signal that Anambra was no longer a safe haven for criminals.
He said that the police recovered several types of arms and ammunition from the suspects. The commissioner said that some of the suspects had been arraigned, while the command was still investigating cases leveled against others.
He said that additional personnel had been deployed in Anambra by the Inspector-General (IG) to beef up the existing security in the state.
He added that the command had created 20 new units and deployed its personnel to various flash points across the state.
He also said that the command had set its dragnet in every location in the state; especially Awka, the capital, and that any person or group caught would be severely dealt with.
In His words:
“This number of arrests within three weeks to me was unprecedented and we will sustain the tempo until we flush out all the bad eggs in the state,’’
“I personally patrol some of these locations to ensure efficient operations. I am not an arm chair police commissioner.
“I move round myself to make sure that things are done the right way for security of lives and property of residents,” Umar said. Umar warned those who were in the habit of operating in offices and residential houses, especially around the Government House, Awka axis, to desist.
“I have read my riot acts to officers and men in Anambra state police command that under this administration of the present IG, there is zero tolerance to corruption.
“No police personnel can extort money from an individual or group and go free.
“We have the mechanism to checkmate the activities of our men; both the Inspector General and Commissioner of Police monitoring units are working hard. “We gave out our telephone numbers to the public to report any case of extortion and act of incivility and misconduct to us.
The commissioner also advised the people of the state to disregard threats by any group that the forthcoming November 18 governorship election in Anambra would not hold.
He said:
“We learnt that there are some disgruntled elements making some pronouncements against the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria that people should boycott the Nov.18 governorship election in the state.
“The group can say whatever they like, but the police and other security agents have a duty to secure the nation and as well ensure that the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is protected.
“Where offences are committed; we will enforce the laws handed over to us for enforcement. We are ever ready to do that in Anambra and that is the fact.
“We have all the resources at our disposal to ensure that those who are eligible to vote perform their civic responsibilities without any molestation.
“And nobody within or outside the state can stop the exercise,’’

*Control Your Tongue, Control Your Life*
For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body (James 3:2). The words you speak are a true measure of your spirituality. It makes no difference what others might think or say about you; what matters are the words that come out of your mouth every day, irrespective of who you may be talking to: God, men, yourself, circumstances, or nature. Be sure you always, speak gracious, faith-filled, and spirit-building words. Tame your tongue.
The Apostle James likened the tongue to the rudder of
a great ship that the captain uses to navigate the ship aright, irrespective of the fierce winds driving against it (James 3:4-5). This means that with your words, you can keep yourself in health, in faith, in success, and in the transcendent life. Don’t talk fear, lack or your inabilities. Talk the Word! Consciously put the Word on your lips.
Isn’t it wonderful that with your tongue, you can disallow sickness, disease, infirmity, and weakness from your body? Always speak health and strength to your body. Many are sick, weak, broke and suffering today because of their careless talking through the years. Get your tongue under control and have your life under control!
Use your tongue to come out of trouble, depression, sickness, pain, poverty, and frustration. Today, where you are, and what you are in life, are the result of your words. If the result isn’t such that you’re pleased with, you can consciously begin to chart a new course, and decide what the next five or ten years will be like for you. If the results are already wonderful, you can walk in greater glory and higher levels of success if you use your tongue right. Jesus said you shall have what you say. Therefore, use your tongue to beautify your life (Mark 11:23)

President Muhammmadu Buhari who has been on medical vacation to the United Kingdom since May 6, yesterday, July 23, hosted some All Progressive Congress Governors and leaders at the Abuja House in London and a photo proof of the visit hit the media from the Presidency photographers.
As reactions have continued to trail the picture as to why the President has not spoken to Nigerians via video since he left over sixty but will rather welcome the APC leaders in London despite controversies about his health, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina gave the reason as owning to the President’s style.
In a phone conversation with Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, Adesina said this about Nigeria’s ailing President saying Nigerians ought to be conversant with that about Buhari.
“It is a matter of personal style, there is no style that you can call ‘the’ style. The style of our president is what you have seen on display and by now two years after he came, I am sure that we should understand him”, Adesina said.
“We should know the kind of person he is, we should know how he prefers to do things and that is how the President is.
“That just tells you that that is the way our President is, we elected him willingly and we have seen that this is the way he is”, he ended.
Here is the video of the conversation with Channels Tv:
Estranged Couple, Ubi Franklin and Lilian Esoro, who had parted ways after their marriage crahsed, hosted some top Celebrities at their son, Jayden’s birthday/dedication celebration yesterday in Lagos.

A Guy took to Popular Nigerian Forum, Nairaland to share an experience on how he dealt with a slay queen who felt she was smart!
Read The experience below;
Wow!
I was in a bus on my way home when I spotted a really nice figure 8 lady strolling in the dark. I was close to my bus stop so I alighted quickly to meet the girl. Surprisingly, she was very polite and I enjoyed the little chat we had together. It was really dark that night, so I couldn’t see her face clearly. I got her number and we fixed a date to meet by the pool side of an hotel in the neighborhood.
D-day came and I called her. Her phone was switched off. Towards 6pm, she flashed then I called her again. She apologized then asked if we could still meet that late to which I obliged. That was when she chipped in that her friend will accompany her.
What?
No shaking
I told her there was no problem about that. With the new development, I decided to tell my friend to accompany me too.
I got to the hotel with my friend and still had to wait for 45minutes before they showed up. Next was a call on my phone telling me that they are outside. On getting there, what I saw was made me weak. Her face was scary but the curves tho…
Her friend was like an old woman or a vulture. They were still doing shakara that they can’t enter. Perhaps, they wanted me to beg them. I just turned and went inside. No one told them to follow me in.
To shorten that episode, I bought drinks and meat worth 3200. Immediately they finished their drinks, they got up and left. Maybe they thought we were going to tell then to follow us home.
Wow, smart!
The following Sunday, she agreed to come to my house. Sounded nice till she disappointed by ensuring her line was not reachable. She did that for 2 more Sundays then I had enough. What angered me is the fact that when it’s 30minutes to the time she’s suppose to come, she calls to remind me. Now when it’s time, her phone becomes switched off. At first, I thought it was just coincidence till I noticed that she has been avoiding to give me her friends number cos my friend had been disturbing me for it. When asked how he would deal with the vulture, he said he would use pillow to cover her face or make her face the wall.
Well, I decided it would be best I pay her in her own coin. And all though the amount I spent was small, plus the fact that part of it went into I and my friend’s belly, I still felt it would be best to teach her a nice lesson. If she’s not taught a lesson, she might repeat the same trick on another humble fellow.
I called her on a weekday to tell her I was having my birthday the following day and that the celebration will be at Ikeja shoprite. I also told her I will be buying her some provisions at shoprite after the celebrations and that she should come with 2 friends of hers. I could almost feel the way she was smiling, giggling and praising me by calling me baby.. sweetheart.
D-day came and I called her that I’m already there with 2 friends of mine. She first doubted cos she couldn’t hear any sound of bubbly activities. But when I handed the phone to my friend who knew about the plan, she believed thinking we were really at shoprite.
Few minutes later, she called to tell me they were at the car park in shoprite Ikeja. I told her to give me a minute that I will come meet them.
Since then, she has left my phone with over 30 missed calls.
The idea is to make her vomit the amount she thought she ate from me, no matter how little it was. She was smart at first by bringing her friend to come “chop him money”. Now, that amount she chopped has been spent on transporting to shoprite with the hope of eating and going home with big yellow nylon bags. Oh, I forgot to add the embarrassment she and her friends will feel when they did not See Me.
I know some people might want to call me out saying “is it because of the small money you spent?”
Well, nothing you say will stop the joy I derived from teaching a slay queen a lesson.
See Me see missed calls:

Alhaji Lateef Ajikanle, a member of the All Progressives Congress, APC was reportedly said to have got electrocuted in his home at Bolaji Omupo Street, Somolu last Saturday, July 22.
As confirmed, the renowned Lagos APC member was struck while he was making attempts to pick dirt around his compound in spite of the Saturday flood.
His younger sister, Monsuru Ajikanle, told correspondents on Sunday that the 50-year-old was preparing to participate in the last Saturday’s local government election before the tragic event.
She said:
“He went to the mosque that day. The rain started early in the morning and everywhere was flooded. He was coming back from the mosque around 7am when he saw that the fence owned by the poultry farmer on the next street had collapsed on the pumping machine in our compound.
“Also, the flood water could not flow out and there were waste paper and other dirty materials everywhere. He started picking the rubbish from the water. He was doing that when his hand touched the live wire exposed after the fence fell on the pumping machine and he was electrocuted.”
A neighbour, who attempted to rescue him was also reportedly electrocuted, but escaped death.
“One of our neighbours, Femi, ran into the flood to help him, but the electric current in the water forced him back. We called the Ikeja Electric to disconnect the power”, Monsuru noted
It was gathered that the flood was worsened by the rubble of a collapsed fence owned by a poultry farmer on an adjoining street, Lisabi Street.
Officials of the Ikeja Electric, Onipanu Business District, were said to have been alerted at the spur of the incident.
Just after news emerged that Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi and the chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) John Oyegun, on Sunday held an emergency meeting with Buhari, Media mogul, Dele Momodu has blasted Nigerians for being angry that President Muhammadu Buhari is still alive.
Writing on his Twitter page late on Sunday, the Ovation publisher also admitted that he had a video call with the former Rivers Governor, otimi Amaechi, to confirm the visit and also ask about Buhari’s well being.
He wrote:
“The Biblical Thomas could easily have been a Nigerian as we doubt everything; just had a video call with ROTIMI AMAECHI in London.
“ROTIMI AMAECHI has confirmed to me in a video call minutes ago that he and other APC Chieftains indeed met with President Buhari this noon.
“The video call became necessary when I got strident calls from those doubting the authenticity of the media release from FEMI ADESINA.”
Reacting to a user who asked him what Amaechi told him, He tweeted:
“The President is in great spirit. Nothing different from what the Acting President told Nigerians after a similar visit.
“I didn’t start this job today… My source is solid and impeccable; Amaechi won’t confirm if untrue, he will keep mute!”

Amiloaded correspondent who visited Barakat, Usman and Fatimoh
who were at the residence of the late AbdulHakeem on Saturday July 22, had a touching têtê â têtê with the young girls and their brother.
Speaking with the children of the slain father, they urged the state government to temper justice with mercy on their mother, Mrs Omotayo Salawudeen, saying life has not been easy for them since the death of their father.
The children, Barakat Salawudeen (18), Usman Salawudeen (15) and Fatimoh (12) appealed to the State government to pardon their mother whom they described as the only person that can aid them to make their dreams come to pass.
When our crew got to 11 Adeniran street, Halleluyah Estate, Osogbo, the Osun State capital, only the three children of the late Salawudeen were seeing living in the house without any other family members.
When asked why did they prefer to stay in the house where their father was killed, the children affirmed that they are comfortable in their father’s house rather than staying with other relatives.
Since the Osun State commissioner of police, Fimihan Adeoye paraded the 39 year old woman, members of the public especially those living in the Halleluyah Estate, Osogbo neighbourhood of the deceased have been condemning the act which they say has for the umpteenth time, defamed womanhood.
With three kids, Barakat 17, Usman 15 and Fatimoh 12, the dream of having an accountant, soldier and an actress promised by their late father if not properly monitored or with divine intervention could be gradually doomed.
