Former Chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team (PRTT), Abdulrasheed Maina, is currently “living like a king” in a well-furnished, air-conditioned space at the Kuje correctional facility. 

According to a report by FIJ, a prison source said Maina, who was sentenced to prison for money laundering, has never been to a prison cell. 


On Monday, a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja held that Maina stole over N2 billion belonging to pensioners. 

It said most of the victims "have died without reaping the fruits of their labour”.

Inspector General Of Police, Rejects Mass Resignation By Police Officers
~0.9 mins read
There is a mass resignation by police officers, in the aftermath of the death of a few police officers, especially at a time when the end SARS protest, became violent, with the coming in, of thugs and hoodlums. These hoodlums killed band burnt a few policemen, which puts the lives of other living police officers and men, in danger.

Most of these police officers are tired of the job, because of the threat to their lives. It is not enough for the Inspector General, to reject the mass resignation. It is to find out why are they seeking for a resignation.

The high command must examine why the resignation of police officers.

The police force is underfunded, with a poor salary structure, which explains why a whole lot of them, are not motivated to do their job properly.

The way the police system treat police officers is unfair. Some may be transferred with no place for accommodation, and also poor salaries.

The police hierarchy is too corrupt, the Inspector General of Police and Commissioners of police in the thirty six states of the federation, are corrupt and doesn't allow the money to get down to the lower ranks in the police force.

There is need to build the confidence of the police officers.

CNN Reveals The Origin Of The Bullets The Army Used Against Protesters At The Lekki Toll Gate
~1.5 mins read
October 20, 2020, is a day a lot of Nigerians will never forget in a hurry. It was a gruesome day which reflected the low regard for the sanctity of life in the country.


Nigeria was figuratively, symbolically and literally soaked in the blood of unarmed innocent youth who fought for their rights to move freely in the country without being harassed by the Nigerian Police Force.

After the shootings that occurred in the Lekki toll gate on that fateful date, there have been denials and shift-blaming on who gave the order for military men to go to the Lekki toll gate.

Fortunately, amidst the denials and counter-denials, several people were working undercover to uncover the real truth about what happened on the fateful day.

A CNN investigative report released earlier on November 18, 2020, is one of the fruits of the investigative search on what happened that day.

CNN released videos of relatives of the protesters shot on that day and other details about the shootings.

However, the most shocking of them all was that they were able to show the origin of the bullet that was used by the Nigerian army on that day.

Thanks to the live video done by Dj Switch, they were able to analyse some of the necessary elements needed to carry out an investigation.



Dj Switch has reportedly moved to Canada due to the threats she received for broadcasting the incident live.

An excerpt from the investigations and report by CNN reads, “CNN has examined bullet castings found at the scene and confirmed with current and former Nigeria military sources that the bullet castings match those used by the army.”


They also confirmed that the bullet was manufactured in Serbia in 2005.

Their investigation revealed that Nigeria bought weaponry from Serbia for a long time.

They were also able to uncover that Nigeria bought weaponry almost every year between 2005 and 2016 from Serbia.

The investigation has challenged the narrative released by the Nigerian army and State officials that the army did not shoot at the peaceful protesters.
