They Tortured Relations, and Domestic Staff

The footage also captured how the soldiers and policemen ransacked the compound, firing gunshots at two of the CCTV cameras, while the other hidden ones captured their atrocities.

A Closed Circuit Television Camera footage has captured the moments when heavily armed soldiers and policemen invaded the residence of an Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, shooting dead his Personal Assistant, identified as Samuel Uzo Okoro, also known as Biggy.

We obtained the footage from Njenje media, which revealed how the soldiers and policemen invaded the house on Sunday, June 6, dragged Ejiofor’s relations and staff members on the ground, after beating up and thereafter escaped with his red Toyota vehicle which was later abandoned and burnt with Biggy’s corpse in it.

The footage also captured how the soldiers and policemen ransacked the compound, firing gunshots at two of the CCTV cameras, while the other hidden ones captured their atrocities.

We had on June 8 reported that the soldiers and policemen in a joint operation raided the IPOB top lawyer’s residence at Oraifite in the Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State.

The media had learnt that the burnt car, a 2013 Toyota Camry, including Okoro’s burnt corpse were discovered a day later at Okacha Junction, Nneni in the Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State.

We had learnt that the red Toyota car containing the corpse was burnt by the NHSS Tactical Team – the joint name for the army, police, and Department of State Services operatives which attacked the house.

The NHSS Tactical Team answers directly to Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba.

A civil organisation, the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law in an update sent to SaharaReporters had said the burning took place “about 30 minutes after the invading killer security operatives left the family house of Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor at Oraifite in the Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State and headed to the Anambra State Police Command headquarters at Awka.”

Intersociety said, “We had earlier informed the world that four innocent citizens involving the lawyer’s elder brother, Joel Ejiofor, driver, Elder Felix Emeka Okonkwo who is 55 years of age; the lawyer’s gardener/flower cutter and compound sweeper, Lawrence Ugochukwu Okafor, 20 years old and gateman, Ikenna Chibuike, 35 years old; were abducted and taken away after the Gestapo invasion and attack.

“The duo of the gardener and the gateman had lived in the lawyer’s family house at Oraifite for years while his driver and personal assistant lived with him in his Abuja residence. The fifth citizen, Samuel Uzo Okoro, 43-year-old lawyer’s Personal Assistant for many years, was shot and killed on the premises of the lawyer’s family house, and Joel Ejiofor, his elder brother was abducted.”

We had also reported how Ejiofor in a statement he signed, confirmed the attack, saying the security agencies should “immediately investigate their personnel that invaded my peaceful home, killed, stole and destroyed my valuables.”

The army and the police have kept mum on the incident ever since.

Ejiofor had said, “Can we take it that some elements who are hugely benefiting from the hostilities in our region are after my life; apparently, they are enjoying the present genocide going on in the South-East which my intervention was designed to curtail?

“Interestingly the Anambra State Police Commissioner confirmed to me that he was never aware of the operation. How did these killers in army and police uniform drive all the way from Abuja to Anambra to unleash mayhem without notifying the CP of the state?

“I, therefore, demand for the immediate and unconditional release of my domestic staff abducted from my home during this unprovoked attack.

“Furthermore, I call on the Inspector General of Police, Chief of Army Staff, Director General of State Security Services, and the Director-General of Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps to immediately investigate their personnel that invaded my peaceful home, killed, stole and destroyed my valuables. The perpetrators of this evil shall be publicly named and prosecuted without further delay.”

Burbank Marriage Unravels After Woman Allegedly Used Tracking Devices to Monitor Husband

Burbank, Calif. — What began as a seemingly happy two-year marriage ended in confrontation and police involvement after a Burbank woman allegedly used multiple electronic tracking devices to monitor her husband’s movements, authorities and sources familiar with the situation said.

According to information obtained by this outlet, the marriage between Amos and Yolanda deteriorated after Yolanda allegedly placed Apple AirTags, Tile trackers, and a GPS tracking device on Amos’ vehicle and personal belongings without his knowledge. The devices reportedly allowed her to monitor his location in real time and reconstruct his daily movements across the city.

Friends of the couple said the marriage appeared stable during its early years, with the pair often seen together at community events and social gatherings. However, tensions reportedly escalated when Yolanda began confronting Amos about his whereabouts, referencing locations and timelines he had not shared with her.

The situation reached a breaking point when Yolanda allegedly tracked Amos to an apartment complex in Burbank, where she believed he had gone without informing her. Sources say she arrived at the location shortly after he did, leading to a heated confrontation in the parking area of the building. Neighbors, alarmed by raised voices, contacted local authorities.

Burbank police responded to the scene and separated the parties. While no arrests were immediately announced, the incident marked the effective end of the couple’s marriage, according to individuals close to Amos.

Legal experts note that the unauthorized use of tracking devices may raise serious privacy and stalking concerns under California law, depending on intent and consent. Law enforcement officials have not publicly disclosed whether an investigation remains ongoing.

The case underscores growing concerns about the misuse of consumer tracking technology, originally designed to help locate lost items, but increasingly implicated in domestic disputes and surveillance-related allegations.

As of publication, neither Amos nor Yolanda had publicly commented on the incident.

Kaduna, Nigeria – November 6, 2025 — In a major milestone for Nigeria’s housing sector, the Governor of Kaduna State has commissioned a 100-unit mass housing estate developed by Family Homes and executed by Karmod Nigeria, marking the first-ever large-scale prefabricated housing project in the country.

Completed in under six months, the innovative project demonstrates the power of modern prefabricated construction to deliver high-quality, affordable homes at record speed — a sharp contrast to traditional building methods that often take years.

Each of the 100 units in the estate is designed for a lifespan exceeding 50 years with routine maintenance. The development features tarred access roads, efficient drainage systems, clean water supply, and steady electricity, ensuring a modern and comfortable living environment for residents.

According to Family Homes, the project represents a new era in Nigeria’s mass housing delivery, proving that cutting-edge technology can accelerate the provision of sustainable and cost-effective homes for Nigerians.

“With prefabricated technology, we can drastically reduce construction time while maintaining top-quality standards,” said a spokesperson for Family Homes. “This project is a clear demonstration of what’s possible when innovation meets commitment to solving Nigeria’s housing deficit.”

Reinforcing this commitment, Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State emphasized the alignment between the initiative and the state’s broader vision for affordable housing.

“The Family Homes Funds Social Housing Project aligns with our administration’s commitment to the provision of affordable houses for Kaduna State citizens. Access to safe, affordable and secure housing is the foundation of human dignity. We have been partnering with local and international investors to frontally address our housing deficit,” he said.

Also speaking at the event, Mr. Ademola Adebise, Chairman of Family Homes Funds Limited, noted that the project embodies inclusivity and social progress.

“The Social Housing Project also reflects our shared vision of inclusive growth, where affordable housing becomes a foundation for economic participation and improved quality of life.”

Karmod Nigeria, the technical partner behind the project, utilized its extensive expertise in prefabricated technology to localize the process, employing local artisans and materials to enhance community participation and job creation.

Industry experts have described the Kaduna project as a blueprint for future housing initiatives nationwide, capable of addressing the country’s housing shortfall more efficiently and sustainably.

With this pioneering development, Kaduna State takes a leading role in introducing modern housing technologies that promise to reshape Nigeria’s urban landscape.
