Re: Armed Police men Arrest Plateau LP Governorship Candidate

Contrary to the report being circulated by  Some online news media alleging that the arrest of Amb. Yohanna Margif, by operatives of the Plateau State Command is politically motivated, the Command wishes to inform members of the public that such report is malicious, misleading and unfounded.



Amb. Margif was criminally reported against by his business associate, one E.C.Gajare who alleged that Amb. Margit issued him a dud bank cheque over a business deal they had in recent time, hence the Police invited the Amb. Margif to answer the allegation levied against him to wish confirmed to be true.

The Plateau State Police Command wishes to set the record straight that the Nigeria Police is a non partisan organization that rigorously pursues criminal matters with vigor irrespective of who is involved.

Members of the public are hereby, urged to disregard such noxious report aimed at  tarnishing the image of the Plateau State Police Command. 

The Commissioner of Police, CP Bartholomew N Onyeka psc (+) want the general public to know that nothing can distract the Command from discharging it's constitutional duties and responsibilities. 

The CP further adviced all media houses to always verify information before making any publication,While he admonished members of the public to go about their lawful businesses and promptly report any suspicious movements within their community.

By Justin Jattim  A non-profit organization dedicated to the empowerment, education, and economic upliftment of vulnerable women and youth impacted by banditry, kidnapping, and insurgency in Nigeria, the Scarlet Cord Initiative, has extended its work to Gumel in Kachia, southern Kaduna. There, it held a two-day holistic empowerment programme for about 100 traumatized women. The programme included skills training, mentorship, trauma psycho-support, and advocacy. The event, which took place in a vibrant hall in Gora, began with a simple ball of yarn passed from hand to hand, weaving a visible web of connection among the 100 selected widows. These women shared the experience of losing their husbands to violent attacks. This was not a craft lesson, but the opening act of a profound tra...
