Authorities in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have begun an official investigation into a sexual assault complaint filed by a woman identified as Ebunoluwa Mitchell Fatoyinbo. The case reportedly involves an individual named Oscar Ilochi, a resident of Apo Legislative Quarters, Abuja. The incident, which gained traction on social media, allegedly took place in the basement of a local gym, where the victim was said to have been working out alone. The case drew increased public attention due to a viral post suggesting that Fatoyinbo may be related to Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. However, the police have firmly stated that there is no known connection between the victim and the presidential family. Official Police Statement According to Josephine Adeh, spokesperson of the FCT Police Command, the authorities are now actively investigating the matter. The police have also started reviewing CCTV footage from the gym as part of the evidence-gathering process. “The FCT Police Command is aware of a viral report on social media concerning a case of sexual assault involving Miss Ebunoluwa Mitchell Fatoyinbo,” the statement reads. “We wish to clarify that the suspect in question is one Mr. Oscar Ilochi, and a formal complaint was indeed filed.” Adeh further advised the public, including media outlets and social media users, to verify all claims before sharing or reporting them, in order to avoid spreading misinformation. Citizens are encouraged to rely solely on official police communication channels for updates. This development comes amid growing concerns over gender-based violence and the need for justice and accountability in Nigeria’s capital city. The police have promised to conduct a transparent and thorough investigation.

A group of armed bandits, numbering at least 20, launched an attack on the Chikakore community in Kubwa, Abuja, on Sunday night. The assailants abducted five residents, including a family of three and a guest who was visiting. The attack took place around 11 pm when the bandits stormed the Health Centre extension area of Chikakore. Among those taken were Adesiyan Akinropo, his wife, their son, and their visiting guest. Additionally, a neighboring resident was kidnapped, bringing the total number of victims to five. During the attack, a woman was severely injured, sustaining a head wound after being struck with a gun butt. She was rushed to a hospital due to significant bleeding. Police officers from the Byzahin division arrived at the scene, but by the time they reached the location, the bandits had already fled with the victims. Residents of the community expressed their frustration over the delayed police response, noting that law enforcement arrived approximately 90 minutes after the incident had occurred. One resident voiced their concerns, stating, “The bandits have resumed attacks in Chikakore. We need a police division here in our community. We have land and a fully-built five-bedroom apartment ready to accommodate the police, but there has been no deployment yet.” This attack has sparked further anxiety over the security situation in Chikakore, which had already faced violence earlier in January. At that time, fleeing bandits from Katsina State detonated explosives near an Islamic school in Kuchibuyi, Bwari Area Council, claiming two lives. Efforts to reach Josephine Adeh, the spokesperson for the FCT Police Command, for comments were unsuccessful, as calls went unanswered.

Stampede at Abuja Church Claims Lives During Relief Effort A tragic stampede at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in the Maitama District of Abuja on Saturday morning resulted in the death of 10 people, including four children, and left several others injured. The incident unfolded during the distribution of palliatives to vulnerable members of the community amidst Nigeria’s worsening cost-of-living crisis. According to the Federal Capital Territory Emergency Management Department (FEMD), the stampede occurred at approximately 6:30 a.m. as thousands gathered to receive essential food and clothing items. Details of the Incident The National Director of Social Communications at the Catholic Secretariat of Nigeria, Mike Umoh, confirmed the tragic event but noted that specifics were still being gathered. “Yes, it’s true, but the details are sketchy,” Mr. Umoh stated. Witnesses revealed that chaos erupted when the crowd surged forward, with many scrambling to access the relief items instead of waiting in line. Over 3,000 individuals, including children, reportedly attended the distribution, most of them from nearby settlements such as Mpape and Gishiri Village. Police and Emergency Response Josephine Adeh, spokesperson for the FCT Police Command, confirmed the deaths of 10 individuals, noting that eight others sustained injuries. She added that four of the injured had already been treated and discharged, while the remaining victims continue to receive medical attention. “This tragic event claimed the lives of 10 people, including four children, and injured eight others. To prevent similar occurrences, all organisations planning public events in the FCT must notify the police in advance for adequate security measures,” Ms. Adeh emphasized. The police also warned that organisers of events who fail to comply with this directive will be held accountable for any loss of life or injuries. FEMD’s Statement and Recommendations The FEMD spokesperson, Nkechi Isa, confirmed the incident and reiterated the death toll. She noted that nine of the 10 injured individuals had been discharged from the hospital. Ms. Isa conveyed the condolences of FEMD’s Director General, Abdulrahman Mohammed, to the families of the victims and the Holy Trinity Catholic Church. She further advised organisations to involve security agencies and consider using strategies like coupons and grouping beneficiaries to avoid overcrowding in future relief efforts. In an appeal to the public, Mr. Mohammed encouraged residents to use the 112 emergency toll-free number in case of any disasters. Eyewitness Account One survivor, who requested anonymity, recounted the chaotic scene at the church. “We came to collect rice and clothes, but people started pushing and shoving instead of queuing. That’s when the tragedy struck.” The aftermath of the stampede left the car park littered with victims’ belongings, including shoes and clothing. Conclusion This heartbreaking incident underscores the need for better crowd management and coordination during relief efforts. Authorities urge organisations to take proactive measures to ensure public safety in large gatherings, preventing avoidable tragedies like this in the future.
