TERRORIST AMBUSH POLICE VEHICLE ALONG SOKOTO-ZAMFARA ROAD KILLING OFFICERS

Suspected bandits have att@cked a vehicle conveying Nigerian police officers travelling from Sokoto State to Zamfara State for a special duty assignment, k+lling several personnel.

According to reports, the att@ck occurred on Monday as the officers made their way to Zamfara for the assignment. The exact number of officers k+lled in the incident, as well as whether any personnel survived, had yet to be established as of the time of filing this report.

Videos obtained from the scene by witnesses showed the lifeless bodies of some of the officers inside a bus, with their hands and legs appearing to have been tied with ropes. Other images showed personal belongings believed to belong to the officers scattered on the ground, while people gathered around the scene following the att@ck.

A vehicle reportedly used to transport the personnel was also seen with visible bloodstains, suggesting the extent of the vi%lence.

The incident has further heightened concerns over the persistent insecurity in Nigeria’s North-West, where armed groups commonly referred to as bandits continue to launch d+adly att@cks on communities, amb¥sh travellers, k+ll residents and abd¥ct victims for ransom.

President Bola Tinubu has defended his administration’s decision to secure additional loans, insisting that the focus should be on what the borrowed funds are used to achieve rather than the amount borrowed.  He listed major infrastructure projects, including the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway, Trans-Sahara Superhighway, electricity grid upgrades and the modernisation of key ports in Lagos, as investments expected to boost Nigeria’s productive capacity.  Tinubu said the Lagos-Calabar highway could reduce logistics costs along its corridor by 15–20 per cent, contribute up to two per cent to GDP and create about 100,000 direct jobs, with more than 150,000 indirect jobs.  “We are not simply building highways.

The emir spoke when Abdulaziz Abubakar Yari, Director-General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, visited his palace. “ In my days, politics was about community. Now politics is about one man, his son, his wife, and his bank account. You call it ‘renewed hope’, but people in Katsina are in renewed hunger,” he said. He also accused politicians of abandoning traditional rulers and ordinary citizens after elections, only to return when seeking votes. “Every four years you come to my palace with a cap in hand, asking for prayers, asking for support.

Image
Content creator Adeife Adeoye has criticised the growing obsession with soft life, arguing that many women focus on glamorous outcomes without considering the sacrifices and hard work behind them.  Speaking on the trend, Adeoye said, “There is nothing like soft life. I feel like the notion of soft life is a lie that has been constantly sold to us, especially women.”  She explained that people often admire the lifestyle they see online without asking how it was achieved. She referenced a viral TikTok video where a woman spoke about wanting to live a “Sophia lifestyle,” noting that commenters were more interested in the lifestyle than its source.  According to her, every desirable lifestyle comes with a price, which may include years of hard work, discipline, time and sacrifice.  Adeoye also challenged the belief that a wealthy man will simply appear and provide a woman with the life she desires, describing it as an unrealistic “Cinderella story.”  “A ...
