Former Catholic Knight arrested over alleged ritual cleansing exercise in Nnewi Vigilantes in Nnewi have arrested Sir James Louis Okoye, a former Catholic Knight of St John International, who reportedly renounced Christianity during the official opening of Our Lady of Assumpta Catholic Church, Nnewi in January this year over non-recognition of late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah. Okoye was arrested after he was seen on Saturday wearing a red dress with fresh palm fronds between his lips, with a bell in hand, performing what he believed was the ritual cleansing of Nnewi land on the streets of the town. Okoye gained popularity in January, during the official consecration of the Nnewi Catholic Cathedral, where he decried the non-recognition Late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who he believed built the cathedral to almost completion before his death. He was captured on video removing his shoes and knighthood hat as he stepped out of the cathedral, shouting, “Ifeanyi Ubah ndo.” While stepping out of the gate,...

 NPF MOURNS THE PASSING OF DCP KHAN SALIHU


The Nigeria Police Force announces with deep regret the passing of Deputy Commissioner of Police Khan Salihu, who until his demise served as the officer in charge of Finance and Administration, Lagos State Police Command. He passed away on Monday, 15th June, 2026, after a brief illness.


The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, psc(+), NPM, on behalf of the officers and men of the Nigeria Police Force, described the loss as deeply painful. He recalled DCP Khan Salihu as a dedicated, disciplined, and professionally accomplished officer whose administrative acumen, loyalty, and commitment to duty distinguished him throughout his career and significantly enhanced the efficiency of the Lagos State Police Command.


IGP Disu extended heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of the deceased, and to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Tijani Olaiwola Fatai, psc, mnips, and the officers and men of the Command. He prayed that Almighty God grant the family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss and the departed officer eternal rest.


The Nigeria Police Force wishes to state categorically that DCP Khan Salihu was never kidnapped at any time before his demise. Before his passing, he briefly complained of feeling unwell and was immediately rushed to the hospital for urgent medical attention, where he was sadly confirmed dead on arrival. Reports circulating in certain media outlets alleging that he was kidnapped by suspected criminals before his death are entirely false, misleading, and a complete fabrication with no basis in fact. 


The Force finds such reckless and unverified publication deeply disturbing, particularly at a time when his family, colleagues, and the entire Force are in mourning. The Nigeria Police Force demands the immediate withdrawal of the false report and urges the media organisation concerned to issue a public correction and apology in the interest of truth and professional responsibility. Members of the public are advised to disregard such reports entirely and rely only on information released through official channels.


May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.


DCP Anthony Okon Placid, psc(+), mnipr, mni
