 AAC SEEK FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ON SOWORE IN EKITI The African Action Congress, AAC, has called for further investigation into the reported attack on Omoyele Sowore and other party members in Ekiti State, despite the arrest of eleven suspects. In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Rex Elanu, the AAC says new video footage has emerged which it believes could help identify more persons involved in the incident. The party has expressed concern over the handling of CCTV recordings from the restaurant where the incident occurred, and alleges that some stolen phones were traced to the governor's lodge in Ekiti State. It is seeking an independent investigation into these claims, the handling of recovered items and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The AAC has also called for the arrest and prosecution of any other persons found to have been involved, and demanded an investigation into the conduct of any security officers who may have acted unprofessionally.

Governor Babagana  Zulum of Borno State has said the state government closed down Jilli market five years ago, for serving as a notorious hub allegedly used by insurgents and their logistics suppliers.


He said this while reacting to the bombing which claimed over 50 lives at the market, on Saturday.


In a statement issued Sunday by his Special Adviser on Media, Dauda Iliya, the governor warned residents against aiding, harbouring, or providing logistical support to Boko Haram insurgents.


“I have been properly briefed on the airstrike carried out by the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai on Jilli market, a border town between Borno and Yobe states. Let me state categorically that the Borno State Government closed Jilli and Gazabure markets five years ago.”


“I am in close consultation with the Government of Yobe State and the military hierarchy on the matter,” he said.


Governor Zulum explained that Borno maintains close coordination with the military and other security agencies before resettling any community or reopening markets, particularly in areas affected by insurgency.
