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...

 Setting the Records Straight on  Citizen Asar Michael Sesugh's  Death


The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,  EFCC,  considered it imperative to clear the air on some recent incidents at its Makurdi Zonal Directorate,  Benue State.  


Operatives of the Directorate arrested 26 suspected cyber fraudsters on April 28,  2026.  They were profiled and kept in custody for further investigations after obtaining a Remand Order at a Magistrate Court. 


Shortly after their arrest,  specifically on May 4,  2026,  three of the suspects sought permission to use the lavatory at the Directorate's  Holding Facility and were permitted.   They cashed in on the opportunity,  broke the toilet's roof and escaped from detention.  Several efforts were made to re- arrest them to no avail.


However,  fresh intelligence came on Thursday,  May 21,  2026 that one of the escaped suspects,   Asar Michael Sesugh,  was hiding somewhere in the  Kansho axis      of  Makurdi.   Operatives made for the location. Upon sighting the team, Sesugh and his suspected cult members opened fire on them. 


Operatives of the Commission returned fire in self-defence.   All the suspected cult members,  including  Sesugh,  fled owing to the exchange of fire between them and EFCC's operatives.   However,  Sesugh was later sighted lying in the pool of his blood by the roadside.  He was promptly taken to the Police Cottage Hospital at the Police Headquarters in Makurdi where he was pronounced dead.


The Commission reported the matter at the Benue State Police Headquarters,  Makurdi and the Police has begun investigation to ascertain the circumstances surrounding his death and making efforts to arrest other fleeing members of the suspected cult.  Preliminary reports of the findings of the Police have also been released to the public. 


The Commission wishes to state clearly that the dead suspect did not die in custody and was not on bail at any time.   While the EFCC expresses its condolences to the family of the deceased suspect, it will not condone any further attack of its Operatives or breach of its internal security by suspects. The Commission assures that it will continue to act in the best interests of the nation.
