Murdered a civilian in his residence and the monsters showed Zero remorse to his sister rather they forced her to be quiet after making her witness such horror. Samad was in his house when your men killed him
GIVE SAMAD justice. This statement you out is false and you know it! Where are the armed robbers you were chasing? Did they vanish? Or did you FAIL Again?
The troops came under gun fire where the bullet casings? Una sleep am?
GIVE SAMAD JUSTICE! Arrest the Monster that did this!

A forced entry through the fence, a clean shot at the room door, but Nigeria army said they were chasing armed robbers in Abdulsamad room.
His house has a fence with barbwire. Are you saying the stray bullet pierced the fence, then pierced the door, still not slowing down, then it shattered his skull in his room? Nigerian Army said the boys were chasing armed robbers in the night, they came under intense fire and Samad was caught in the crossfire. The so called armed robbers are nowhere to be found.
God see us all.

Dear Nigerian Army @HQNigerianArmy , are you aware that some of your men blown off the brain of a Kogi born Nigerian Youth corp member Named Samad at Dei-Dei, Dakwa (Shagari Quaters, behind New Lagos Hotel) Abuja? They called it a mistake. Step one: you load the magazine. Step two: you mount it. Step three: you cock it. Step four: you pull the trigger. The soldier carried out each step deliberately, with both eyes open so what exactly is a mistake about it? Samad was in his room, he was not there by mistake. Find these men and get justice for him. You have a reputation to protect. @sowore @SaharaReporters @fisayosoyombo @NatashaAkpoti @officialnyscng @nysc360 @PremiumTimesng @Wizarab10 @HQNigerianArmy

On Saturday, in the early hours of the morning, my cousin brother who was also my seatmate in senior secondary school was murdered in his own home by five officers of the Nigerian Army. I was one of the first people to respond to the scene, and everything I am about to state is true.
The officers arrived at his residence under the guise of a patrol, claiming they suspected a thief was in the compound. One of them scaled the fence over a barbed wire to open the gate for the rest. Once inside, they forcefully attempted to gain access to his room. In doing so, they discharged two shots, one of which was a headshot that pierced through the door and killed him instantly.
The evidence at the scene was undeniable three bullet holes(two on the door and the killing shot that went through his head to the wall) and blood splattered across the wall. He was 24 years old, a graduate of Civil Engineering, and full of promise. Three of his siblings were present in the house that night, sleeping upstairs, and they are live witnesses to what happened.
After committing this act, the officers called the police themselves, reporting that they had killed someone they had “mistakenly” suspected to be a thief. What followed made matters worse. They tampered with the scene by summoning vigilantes who cleaned up the pool of blood. All pictorial evidence is currently in the possession of the police, who have refused to release the statements of the officers involved, only confirming that the soldiers reported the killing as a mistake.
It is a painful and devastating reality that the very people entrusted with our protection are now killing us in the comfort of our own homes. We demand that the @hqnigerianarmy identify and hold these five officers accountable, and that justice be delivered without delay.

The young man in this picture is DĘAD! Until his untimely death, he was a serving NYSC corps member. In his own room at Shagari Quarters, Deidei, Abuja, officers from the @HQNigerianArmy shōt and blew up his hęad claiming it was a “mistake.” Late Samad was not a criminal. He was simply serving his fatherland, only to be murdered by those paid to protect him. We demand that the military hierarchy immediately investigate this incident, punish the officers involved, and ensure his family gets justice! May this not happen to any of us. #JusticeForSamad #NYSC

FORMAL REBUTTAL STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE FAMILY OF ABDULSAMAD JAMIU (DECEASED)
In Response to the HQ Nigerian Army Official Account of Events of 25th April 2026
Incident Location: Dei-Dei Shagari Quarters, Abuja, Federal Capital Territory
Victim: Abdulsamad Jamiu, Male, 24 Years of Age
Date of Statement: 26th April 2026
PRELIMINARY NOTE
This statement is issued on behalf of the immediate family of the late Abdulsamad Jamiu, who was killed in the early hours of Saturday, 25th April 2026, at his residence in Dei-Dei Shagari Quarters, Abuja. It is issued in direct and formal response to the account of events published by the Nigerian Military, which the family, supported by physical evidence, witness testimony, and the military’s own partial admissions, categorically rejects as false, misleading, and an affront to the memory of an innocent young man.
The family is not issuing this statement in anger alone. They are issuing it in the interest of truth, accountability, and the rule of law — values which the Nigerian Military, as an institution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, is constitutionally obligated to uphold.
SECTION I: ESTABLISHED FACTS
The following facts are not in dispute and form the foundation of this rebuttal:
1. At approximately 2:00 a.m. on Saturday, 25th April 2026, personnel of the Nigerian Military entered the residential premises of the Jamiu family at Dei-Dei Shagari Quarters, Abuja.
2. At the time of the incident, Abdulsamad Jamiu, aged 24 years, was present inside his room within the family residence. His sister was also present in the house. Their parents were absent, having travelled to Okene to attend a burial ceremony.
3. Nigerian Military personnel discharged a firearm at close range through the door of Abdulsamad’s room. The shot struck Abdulsamad Jamiu in the head, killing him instantly.
4. The trajectory of the bullet — confirmed by physical examination of the bullet hole, which runs from the room door to the wall of the room — conclusively establishes that the shot was fired from outside the room, through the closed door, into the room where Abdulsamad Jamiu was situated.
5. On hearing the gunshot, Abdulsamad’s sister rushed downstairs, whereupon she was instructed by the soldiers present to go outside and “calm down.”
6. Neighbours who heard the gunshot contacted the community vigilante group. Upon their arrival, vigilante members were instructed by the military personnel to mop up the blood and flush it — a directive which, in itself, raises grave questions about the military’s intent to preserve an evidence-intact crime scene.
7. The body of Abdulsamad Jamiu was subsequently conveyed to Kubwa General Hospital by the police, who had arrived at the scene. The family was compelled to endure hours of statements and administrative paperwork before being granted access to retrieve their son’s remains for burial.
8. The military personnel present at the scene, when confronted by the family regarding the killing of their son, acknowledged that the shooting of Abdulsamad Jamiu was a mistake and that they had killed an innocent person. This acknowledgement was made in the presence of the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) and was recorded in a written statement.
SECTION II: THE MILITARY’S ACCOUNT AND ITS SPECIFIC CONTRADICTIONS
The Nigerian Military has publicly claimed that its personnel were engaged in active pursuit of armed robbers and that the fatal shooting of Abdulsamad Jamiu occurred in the course of an exchange of gunfire. The family rejects this account in its entirety and presents the following point-by-point rebuttal, each supported by verifiable evidence or the absence of evidence where the military bears the burden of proof:
Ground 1: The Physical Evidence Disproves an “Exchange of Gunfire”
The military’s claim of an exchange of gunfire is irreconcilable with the physical evidence present at the scene.

UPDATE ON THE MURDER OF ABDULSAMAD JAMIU
This morning, 27 April 2026, representatives from HQ Nigerian Army, led by Brigadier S. O. Buhari, visited the family to offer condolences and to inspect the scene of the incident.
During the visit, they stated that they were unaware the house was fenced and that the room where the shooting occurred was located downstairs. This contradicts their earlier claim suggesting the death resulted from a “stray bullet.”
The delegation expressed condolences and assured the family that the officers involved would be investigated and held accountable.
The family has formally demanded the retraction of the initial statement and a public apology for what they consider an insult to the memory of their son.
Although there was a promise to delete the statement, the family made it clear that trust has already been undermined, especially given that some military personnel had visited the scene the yesterday before issuing the statement in question.
We reiterate our demand that those responsible for the killing of Abdulsalam Jamiu be brought to justice. This was not an accident. He was in his home; military men entered the premises, approached his room, and shot him through the door. Twice. This was not a mistake.

All of you GenZ’s and unlearned millennials that clown Nigeria asking mockingly “why are we even called Giant of Africa, self?” this is why!
In the 60s-90s, Nigeria was literally Africa’s sugar daddy, $20m here, $10m there, and so on and so forth to other African countries! we didn’t only talk about Pan-Africanism we put our money where our mouth was.
Also, at independence, many African countries didn’t have as many educated professionals as Nigeria. In a lot of African countries that gained independence after us from 1963 onwards, the first chief justice, auditor general, surgeon general, vice chancellors of universities were all Nigerians! The first black chief justice of Botswana was Akinola Aguda, the first black chief justice of Gambia was Emmanuel Ayoola, when the portuguese left Mozambique in the 70s Nigerian health care officers (doctors and nurses) were sent to shore up their healthcare system from collapse bcos they just didn’t have enough qualified doctors. after all said and done we sent over 10,000 professionals across africa and the carribeans to help them incubate their newly independent nations
should we even talk about the ECOMOG troops in the 90s that 70% majorly funded (spent over $3b+) and equipped by Nigeria with Nigerian soldiers forming 75% of the peacekeeping force? ECOMOG led by us was highly responsible for ending the Liberian and Sierra Leonean civil wars.
I won’t even go into details of what Nigeria contributed to the South African anti-apartheid efforts!
Nigeria gave and gave and forgot to pay attention to its own development and today we’ve become the pariah amongst nations!

Your response is quite appreciated, Mr Commissioner.
However, your “strengthening logistics via PSP” claim doesn’t hold. LAWMA terminated 22–27 PSP operators in 2025 alone for failing basic waste collection, while residents still report irregular services despite paying.
Recall that the 2016 Cleaner Lagos Initiative (PSP overhaul) collapsed at scale due to chronic under-capacity, payment breakdowns, and performative enforcement.
The system was never built for 13k–20k tonnes/day, let alone sanitation-day surges that overwhelm trucks. The number of LAWMA intervention trucks cannot guarantee immediate evacuation which then turns this exercise into a net environmental negative because swept waste clogs channels faster than it can be cleared.
Eko a gbe wa o!

@GRVlagos let me respectfully disagree. Shutting down a city of over 20 million people is not what we are doing. We are asking residents to dedicate one hundred and twenty minutes, once every thirty days, to clean their immediate surroundings. That is not a shutdown. That is called taking responsibility. I agree completely that waste management logistics, from collection to disposal to recycling, are critical. That is why we have spent the past year strengthening those very systems. We have banned single use plastics, we are converting Olusosun landfill to energy, we are deploying biogas facilities in our markets, we are partnering with Lafarge to turn waste into valuable resources, and we are empowering young innovators with technology to improve sanitation access. These are not cosmetic actions. They are structural changes to how Lagos manages waste. But here is what I also know. No system of waste management, no matter how sophisticated, will succeed if citizens refuse to take basic responsibility for their environment. You cannot complain about flooding while dumping refuse in drains. You cannot demand a cleaner city while sweeping waste into the road. You cannot blame government for a dirty environment when you are unwilling to clean the front of your own house. The monthly sanitation exercise is not a substitute for systemic reform. It is a complement to it. It is about rebuilding a culture of environmental stewardship that has been lost over time. Technology and infrastructure alone cannot save a city whose people have abandoned personal responsibility. We welcome objective criticism that offers solutions. But dismissing a civic exercise as unimaginative, while offering no alternative path to citizen participation, does not move us forward. #LagosSanitationExercise

On the early hours of Saturday 26 of April 2026 by 2am, my best friend A young graduate who just finished school last year and currently serving his country and was meant to pass out just next month was KILLED BY THE NIGERIAN ARMY. @HQNigerianArmy @PoliceNG_CRU @sowore
@PeterObi @officialnyscng @vdmempire @BenHundeyin
While at home with his siblings (his parents were away), 3 armed military men forced their way into their house around 2am claiming they were chasing a thief.
They encountered him and he locked his door like anyone would do to protect themselves and his siblings because he was the eldest and he has a duty to protect his siblings. they shot through the door multiple times, A bullet hit his head and another hit his stomach. They killed him in his own home.
It didn’t end there.
They prevented his sister from going to him. They tried to stop her from calling for help and when help finally came, his body was taken away. The soldiers called the local vigilante to come and clean the scene. The scene was cleaned and the house was locked down. No clear answers were given. This happened in Dakwa Abuja, it’s not longer rumors that we aren’t safe, not even in our homes.
This was someone’s son. Someone’s brother. Someone’s friend.
He was kind. He was good. He had a future.
This cannot be swept under the rug.
We are demanding accountability. We are demanding answers. We are demanding justice.
Please repost. Please speak up. Don’t let this be ignored.
Please help me tag the necessary authorities under this post

I bought sand from Chinese men and signed a receipt written in Chinese.
I was running a construction project and needed sharp sand urgently.
Went to the dredging site. Sand being pumped straight from the river in large quantities.
I asked who owned the operation.
Chinese men bought the land. The river included.
Our river. Our sand. Their business.
I asked for the price. We agreed. Then they handed me a receipt.
Written entirely in Chinese.
I said I cannot sign what I cannot read.
They said drop the sand and collect your refund.
I needed that sand badly.
I signed.
They released the sand.
I sat in my car thinking about this country.

The truth is that the government of APC has sold Nigeria to the Lebanese,Chinese,Phillipines, Indian etc. The control the vast majority of our resources and the most painful part is that most are doing it illegally.
This is what you get with the unpatriotic elements running the affairs of this country because this can never happen in their own country but Nigeria is free for all once you can pay off the government, bribe the traditional rulers and everyone sent to represent us the people. There's no escaping this misfortune with APC. Know this and know peace ✌
