NIGERIA POLICE WANT TO KIDNAP Moyo Okediji PROF MOYO OKEDJI IN FESTAC LAGOS STATE HE WAS SAFE BY IGBO'S IN THAT AREA. Prof Moyo Okediji wrote Without the intervention of a crowd of young Igbo young men who saved me from the hands of the Nigeria Police attached to the FESTAC Mile Two station, I would be a dead man today. I arrived Lagos today. I came in through Ghana, and decided to enter Nigeria by road so I could see the lagoon landscape, riding a Jeep that I hired to drive me down. Everything went well in Ghana, Togo, Benin Republic, until I stepped into Nigeria. Na dia trouble start oooooo! The first immigration checkpoint that we encountered was at the Seme border, on the Nigeria side. One of immigration officers took a look at me, and said, “Come down, oga.” To cut a long story short, they robbed me of $500. There were many of them, and they invited them to their shed. They took my hand luggage, with all the money that I brought from the US. Their excuse was that they wanted to search it to see if it contained contrabands. They asked for my Nigeria passport. I told them it had expired and I was in Nigeria to renew it. They said it was an offense for me to enter the country with an expired passport. I apologized. But they wanted none of that. They said I had to “settle” them. They had my wallet containing the money I brought to spend in Nigeria. They saw two twenty-dollar notes and said I needed to give them these notes, otherwise they would seize all the money in the wallet, and take me to their office to make a statement. I had heard stories of visitors to the country ending up dead when the police invited them to their offices to clear some issues. So I eagerly gave them the forty dollars. They gave me back my things. But when I counted my money later, $500 was missing. Then the Jeep driver drove me to the FESTAC Mile Two motor park, where another driver I hired to take me to Ile Ife was waiting. My two suitcases were on the floor at the Mile Two FESTAC, in public, right under the large gate to FESTAC. I was narrating my ordeal in the hands of the immigrations to my driver, when three gun totting police officer appeared. They wanted to see the content of my bags. As they searched the bags, they came upon the money I brought from the US. I introduced myself to them as a professor at the University of Texas, Austin. They asked for identifications. I gave them my driving license, the university issued ID card, my US passport and my Nigeria passport. They took them from me. By that time, about ten police officers had descended upon me. Also listening were some Igbo guys hanging out at the motor park. Before you could say “Ki lo de?” the police officers searched me thoroughly. Then they started searching my bag. They found that my suitcases contained my personal effects. They were interested in a pair of shorts which they said looked like camouflage shorts. They pulled out the shorts. Then there was a sculpture that I made, which they said was juju, They decided to seize my suitcases, hand luggage, ID cards and all of my money. They said I had to follow them to the police station. At this point, a sizable crowd of some fifty people had gathered. One of them, with an obvious Igbo accent, said, “You can see he is a professor from abroad. He has given you several ID cards, including his passports. Wetin you dey find again?” It was like a signal to the others, who began shouting, “You wan kill am? You people are thieves o! Highway robbers! It can never happen! Una don see money, una eyes don open…!” Two of them jumped into the police vehicle and dragged out my bags from the vehicle. They accosted the one who held the wallet containing my ID card and my money, shouting, “You better give him back his wallet and money now, odawise wahala will burst.” Another said, “We will not let you take him to the police station to kill him like you always do international visitors.” In a matter of moments, about a hundred Igbo boys emerged from thin air and surrounded us. The police officers saw they were clearly outnumbered by these Igbo motor park boys. Though some of the police officers carried rifles, they saw that the situation was clearly beyond what they imagined. The police officer who held my wallet, passports and ID cards quickly handed them back to me. The Igbo boys carried my suitcases on their heads. The boys, seemingly closed in on the police officers, ready to attack them for my protection. The police officers jumped inside their vehicles, and drove off to save face, their tails curled behind their brokos. I recalled the traumatic moment I left the country in 1992, and swore “If you see me in this god-forsaken scountry again, cut off my neck.” Obviously, the country has fallen much lower since then, and is now a danger zone in which men in uniform of all descriptions—immigrations, customs, police, vehicle inspection officers and others wearing uniforms difficult to define—they have all taken over the country and made it difficult for citizens to enjoy, or even just subsist in their own country. Which kain’ nsogbu be dis o? It is a geographical zone best avoided if you can. But for the intervention of these Igbo boys, I could be locked up in a cell at the Mile Two FESTAC police office now—or dead and my body disposed of. Someone needs to do something, somehow, if they want to save the citizens of Nigeria from law enforcement officers paid to protect the lives of the people, but jeopardizing the very existence of the citizens they took an oath to assist. God bless these Igbo boys who rescued me from the hands of the obnoxious police officers at the Mile Two FESTAC today. I’m sure not all police officers are bad. But those police Mile Tow FESTAC officers who attacked me for daring to return to Nigeria on a visit were evil, and worse than maggots. @profMoyookediji @PoliceNG @jidesanwoolu @OfficialDSSNG @dabiodunMFR @rrslagos767 @followlasg

Sir, you can’t suddenly be a preacher of democracy after telling your followers to grab it, snatch it, fight it, and runaway with it. You can’t rigged or bribed your way to presidency…it doesn’t work that way. Democracy works when there’s equality, freedom of expression, and justice for citizens to choose the leader they want. You can’t forced yourself on Nigerians. @VP as a proud Africa-American, that’s not what we stand for. We can’t be practicing democracy in United States while allowing satanic and heartless Africa politicians to destroyed what America fought and stood for. #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary #NigeriansvsTheJudiciary #INECIsACrimeScene #TinubuMUSTbeDisqualified

@YorubaNationCH Oruko mi ni Israel Omobolaji Temitayo Odunayo Adefemi Adesanya Omo Oba ni mi!

Part of the reasons we need to leave the zoo country is the lies from the INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE A FULAN1 MAN TERRORIST ARE THE ONE'S AND THE APC, PDP, LABOUR PARTY THAT WANT'S TO DISTURB THE ELECTION Yoruba Nation Movement is a peaceful Movement @PoliceNG @HQNigerianArmy

A Nation is where the people speak the same language. Practice the same culture. Share the same history. Promote the same heritage. Nigeria isn't such a country. Nigeria is a country of many Nations forced to live together as one even though they can never be one.

Funny how people think Tinubu Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso etc can keep any of the promises there're making !!! More interesting question is who will be the Odale this time ?

@SaharaReporters All 90% Yoruba people should stand fame against the 10% Slaves in support the Northern leaders and take control back our land to be free.

On the Islamic side they say its God's will to be poor, to die needlessly. While the Christians pray to God for what they should be doing, oh Africa, emancipate yourselves from mental slavery.

If you stay or work in Ojota, thread carefully these morning.
