Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

POLICE DISMANTLE INTERSTATE CAR SNATCHING SYNDICATE; RECOVER 22 VEHICLES, ARREST 12 SUSPECTS


In a major intelligence-led operation, the Rivers State Police Command successfully dismantled a sophisticated car theft syndicate operating across multiple states in Nigeria. The operation led to the arrest of twelve male suspects and the recovery of twenty two (22) stolen vehicles.


The case began in September 2024 after a report by Mr. Enoch Daniel, who was dispossessed of his Toyota Hiace bus at Trailer Park, Onne. Swift investigations by the Command’s C4i Strikeforce/Octopus team led to the arrest of:


John Amadi 40 years from Ogu/Bolo LGA


Nna Goodluck 45 years from Khana LGA


Both ex-convicts confessed they were hired by one Godspower Okpa to snatch the vehicle using hammers and were paid ₦90,000 each.


Further investigations extended to Obibo, Kano, and Akwa Ibom, resulting in the arrest of key suspects including:


Yakubu Abdullah 'm' 35 years, apprehended in Obibo during a pickup,


Abdulkareem Saminu 'm' 35 years, caught with two stolen vehicles,


Adamu Musa, 'm' a dismissed Police Officer from Akwa Ibom, in possession of 11 vehicles


The syndicate is coordinated by Falco Ibrahim 'm' currently at large, whose network spans Rivers, Anambra, Taraba, Enugu, Borno, Kano, Delta, and Akwa Ibom States. Vehicles were smuggled via his agent, Shehu Shagari 'm' now in custody, and sold in Cameroon either whole or as parts.


Other arrested members include:


Onyekachi Igwe 'm' 53 years, ex-convict and Port Harcourt liaison, who confessed to earning over ₦5 million in eight months,


Ikechukwu Joseph 'm' 35 years and Michael Emerenwa 'm' 40 years, both auto-electricians who modified vehicles for export


Elijah Nwauwa Sunday 'm' 45 years, a self-styled pastor from Owerri, Imo State, who fronted as a spiritual leader while acting as the syndicate’s broker at Mgbuka-Obosi car scrap market, Onitsha


Samuel Ejigbo 'm' 39 years from Kogi State, an ex-convict and field operator in Port Harcourt,


Umar Jabbo 'm' 25 years from Taraba State, caught attempting to purchase a stolen Toyota Camry


These arrests underscore our resolve to make Rivers State hostile to criminal syndicates. We call on residents to remain vigilant and support the Police with credible information.


All suspects will be charged to count upon the conclusion of investigations, while efforts continue to arrest the ringleader and other fleeing accomplices.


The Rivers State Police Command remains committed to the safety and security of all residents. These operations reflect a broader strategy to dismantle criminal networks and ensure public confidence in law enforcement.
