POLICE ARREST WOMAN WITH 124 ROUNDS Of AMMUNITION HIDDEN INSIDE PALM OIL

Operatives of the Nasarawa State Police Command attached to the Keffi Division have intercepted and arrested a woman, Hauwa Sani, alongside a two-year-old child, with dangerous weapons.

Keffi town is 33 kilometres and about a 40-minute drive from the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.

The Nasarawa Police Public Relations Officer, Ramhan Nansel, said in a statement on Saturday that 124 rounds of anti-aircraft ammunition concealed in a gallon of palm oil were recovered from the suspect.

He said the operation was carried out on Friday when the operatives intercepted the suspect, a resident of Doro village, Katsina State.

According to the PPRO, a preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect received the supply of ammunition at Rafin Sanyi village in Doma Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

He said the suspected criminal “concealed the items in a gallon of palm oil en route to Katsina State before nemesis caught up with her.”

The police spokesman noted that the Nasarawa State Commissioner of Police, Umar Shehu Nadada, has ordered the transfer of the suspect and exhibit to the Force Intelligence Department, Force Headquarters, Abuja, for further investigation.

    WHAT DELE FAROUNBI WROTE ABOUT AFE BABALOLA This is not a biography for I have painstakingly provided glimpses of my early life in an earlier sequel to my first book. My purpose here is to tell you the story of my sojourn within the Nigerian legal system and to show you how our justice system- the Nigerian justice system is in itself criminal, lending credence to how the criminality of the juthciary is completely reflective of the Nigetian state in its full ramifications and with full evidence of how this rot having become systemic is insidious and reaches to the very top of the juthcial system. I will tell you the story of the complete and total loss of the capacity, to deliver justice against the backdrop of a case that was decided by the Supreme Court and which records are in the public domain. I speak specifically of the case of Major Muritala Gbadamosi 8c Ors v. H.R.H Oba Tijani Akinloye & Ors otherwise known as the Gbadamosi-Eletu case. It is my conternion regarding this case: 1 That Aare Afe Babalola corrupted the Supreme Court to procure a fraudulent judgment in the service of his clients. The story I intend to tell is wrapped around the above facts and have been carefully espoused to highlight only the facts of the matter. Afterall, of what use is a lawyer without his facts?

Speaking on the sidelines of the visit to reporters in Paris, Governor Mbah, who was on the Nigerian delegation, emphasised the importance of such high-level engagements in driving growth and development at both national and state levels. “This visit demonstrates the strong relationship between Nigeria and France. It’s not just about diplomacy; it’s also about creating opportunities for states like ours to explore trade, investment, and development partnerships,” he said. Governor Mbah highlighted ongoing collaborations with France’s development finance institution, Agence Française de Développement (AFD), which he said, was already partnering with the state to expand Enugu’s urban water scheme. He noted that the visit provided a platform to consolidate existing deals and explore additional areas of cooperation such as agriculture. “For us in Enugu, this is beyond an exploratory mission. It is an opportunity to strengthen and build on partnerships that can directly impact our people through enhanced infrastructure and economic growth,” he stated. He described the state visit to France as “remarkable and consequential,” emphasising its significance as the first such visit in 24 years. Mbah highlighted the warm reception extended by French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, as well as the fruitful discussions that underscored the strong bilateral ties between Nigeria and France. “This visit demonstrates the strong bilateral relationship between France and Nigeria. State visits like this further strengthen and build on such relationships, offering opportunities for both nations to explore new trade and investment prospects,” Mbah stated.
