Men of the Nigerian Police Force, their counterparts in the Nigeria Army, Navy, Air Force and other security agencies, said yesterday they foiled an attempt to blow up another pipeline in Rivers State.

This came on a day organized labour in the state threatened to go on strike should the Federal Government fail to reverse the emergency rule imposed on the state within a reasonable space of time.

This is even as a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja was yesterday asked to sack the Sole of Rivers State, Vice iral Ibokette Ibas (retd).

Meanwhile, the Sole yesterday appointed Prof. Ibibia Worika, a legal expert as the new Secretary to the State Government, SSG.

The Police, which spoke on behalf of other security agencies, including the Army, Navy, Air Force, among others, also vowed to protect all critical infrastructure of government and ensure total security of lives and property of people of the state amid emergency rule.

Briefing the media yesterday, the Commissioner of Police in Rivers State, Olugbenga Adepoju, noted that their t operations had been instrumental to the sustenance of peace in the state.

He said: “I extend our profound commendation to the t patrol operations conducted by the Police, the armed forces, and other sister agencies which have diligently executed their mandate to the objective of the state of emergency in Rivers State.

‘’Our collective effort has been instrumental in sustaining the peace and calm currently enjoyed in our dear state.

“It is imperative to emphasize that this phase of security activities is a necessary measure to prevent any potential breakdown of law and order. The decision to deploy a proactive policing strategy was informed by an emerging atmosphere that could have been exploited by troublemakers to plunge the state into insecurity and chaos.

‘’I assure the good people of Rivers State that this is a temporary phase, and in due time, we will all witness a more peaceful and secured state.

Furthermore, I must stress the critical importance of securing critical national assets and infrastructure within Rivers State. These assets are vital, not only to the people of Rivers State but also to the entire nation.

Pure propaganda and a cover-up for tyranny.

The police and military are suddenly hyper-efficient when it comes to protecting a stolen mandate, but where was this energy when bandits were slaughtering citizens and terrorists were bombing trains?

Nobody is fooled—this is not about security. It’s about forcefully legitimizing an illegal takeover. The “peace” they claim to be sustaining is the silence of a people suffocated under military boots.

If the Nigerian security forces had this level of commitment to justice, Nigeria wouldn’t be drowning in crime, corruption, and lawlessness. This is a sham, and Nigerians must reject this creeping dictatorship before it becomes the new normal.

1. Plateau State – Ethnic Massacres & Banditry (No State of emergency declared)
• Multiple mass killings in Bokkos, Mangu, and Barkin Ladi by armed militias.
• Over 200 people slaughtered on Christmas Eve 2023, entire villages wiped out.
• Government response? Weak condemnation, no real action.

2. Zamfara State – Banditry & Terrorism (No State of emergency declared)
• Bandits run the state like warlords, imposing levies on communities.
• Frequent kidnappings of students, travelers, and villagers.
• Federal Government pretends not to notice.

3. Benue State – Fulani Herdsmen Killings (No State of emergency declared)
• Continuous herdsmen attacks on farming communities.
• Entire villages burned down, hundreds dead, thousands displaced.
• Tinubu’s istration? Silent.

4. Kaduna State – Kidnapping & Religious Violence (No State of emergency declared)

• Government offers “dialogue” while terrorists remain untouched.

5. Niger State – Terrorists Seizing Communities (No State of emergency declared)
• Boko Haram and bandits occupying villages like a conquered territory.
• Several LGAs now under insurgent control.

6. Lagos State – Economic Hardship & Brutal Suppression (No State of emergency declared)

This is why that SOE must hold.

And if you check well, you will find out Ipob is behind this.

They use chaotic national issues to launch their own attacks

Fabura really miscalculated

Were the perpetrators caught or chased away? I smell lies.

That second sentence 🤔🤔. Somehow you could be right

Story

Only God knows the party behind this?

Can this be Fubara loyalist?


Or propaganda?

How I wish the criminals were apprehended.

Without doubt they will be from the tribe known for dirty job so long as it involves money

The mannerless tribe from the SadEast

True River son and daughter will never do it

When a thief is an charge of your money the only way he can steal from you is to accuse you of stealing it before he steals it to put the blame on you

Arrest them and probe to know who send them, if it's Fubara he should say buy buy to governorship forever.

You mean lgbo tribe?

Who re the fake bomb planted during the last nationwide protest in Ikeja, Lagos .

Nigeria security forces are bunch of jokers

Arrangee matter.

Govt Plant bombs.

Arrange our hungry and incompetent police and military and call news conference.

Announce you have foiled a bombing.

May una dey deceive una sef.

A lot was said in this article. But that "the police vowed to protect" off me.
Nobody living in that state should believe the police can protect them. They only show up after the crime has been committed and the culprits have escaped.

Propaganda government

H

Tinubu: where are the bombs? .

...but on a serious note, no arrests we're made?

No offense, but before the SOE, were all these security and intelligence agencies forbidden from doing their jobs? Or must everything be about politics?

All are conspiracy to sustain state of emergency in the state.

Govt of propagandas

Can we see or know the perpetrators ?

Very good. This SiR will last as long as pipelines are targeted

Police ke? Police na people. There go there go dey collect 200 200 naira. Bunch of idiots

Believe this and you'll believe anything

Thank God the terrorist called Fubara was suspended.


Fubara would have destroyed Rivers state had he not been removed

ask the bastard for me

Anyone caught trying to bomb pipeline, steal transformer electric cables or destroy any public property is supposed to be caught and killed at least.
Kill them and don't just put them in jail. Those act indirectly kill lots of people eventually.
Imagine those Malo bastarɗs that stole railway track screws or bridge Safety railings... It's evil and evil should never be spared.

you are really sick and a big fool. Your little brain didn't tell you its a propaganda.

They would ve paraded the culprit if they actually caught him. Is it not the best time to interrogate who sent him? MUGU

Why use bid? Them vote put?
