Nigerian Arrested For Tweeting Pictures Of SSS Jail Break Attempt
Amnesty International Friday urged the Nigerian security forces to
disclose the whereabouts of a man who was arrested after tweeting
pictures of an attempted jail break at the headquarters of the
intelligence agency.
“Nigerian security forces should immediately disclose the whereabouts and legal status of Yusuf Siyaka Onimisi,” said the rights group’s Netsanet Belay in a statement.
“If he is in detention, the Nigerian authorities must either charge him with a recognisable criminal offence or release him immediately,” Amnesty said.
The attempted jail break at the headquarters of the Directorate of State Services on March 30 sparked a gun battle that killed 21 detainees, the intelligence agency said.
Onimisi, who works for a national electricity firm, has been arrested and held incommunicado for 11 days, his family said on Thursday.
The head of the National Human Rights Commission, Chidi Odinkalu, told AFP that his office was investigating the alleged disappearance of the 32-year-old man.
“He has been arrested for 11 days without any information being given to the family … . The family has been kept in darkness. If you are holding him or if there is to be a sentence of death, then tell the family,” Amnesty quoted Sanusi Onimisi, the man’s brother, as saying.
National security concerns have been cited in the past as justification for arresting people who publish sensitive material.

Female teachers catch male colleague urinating in their tea(Photos)
Four female nursery teachers who were suspicious about their strange-smelling tea trained a hidden camera on their thermos flasks - and discovered a cigarette-smoking colleague was urinating in them.
Chinese police arrested 54-year-old Gao Chao and took him to hospital where he was tested for infectious diseases.But they say the teacher committed no crime because he has a clean bill of health so his actions caused no harm.
According to Mailonline,.....
The man reportedly felt his female colleagues did not respect him enough, and was bitter at being passed over for the job of kindergarten boss.
But teacher Li Kao, 26, one of the four, said she was furious that police had simply given the man nothing more than a stern lecture and a warning not to do it again...She said..
'I first noticed there was a strange smell from my tea a few weeks ago after I returned to the class after taking the children out to play in the playground.The cups are not transparent, so it was hard to see if the liquid looked strange but there was certainly a strange smell which also came from the thermos flasks that the tea was stored in.The women complained to kindergarten boss Qiu Li Shih, 37, who advised them to put a camera in the room.So they activated the camera on a mobile phone and put it in a basket filled with children's toys.
'I changed the flask and bought a new one but once I brought it to the kindergarten again I had the same problem with the strange smell.Eventually I discovered that my three colleagues had the same problem, and we thought perhaps somebody was putting something in the water.'
The video showed the man, who appeared to be smoking a cigarette, picking up one of the women's brand new pink flasks and holding it close over his genitals while he contaminated her morning drink.
All four women refused to return to work if their colleague was not sacked.However, the stand-off was resolved when he agreed to pay around £200 to each of the women, apologised, and promised not to do it again.

A 23-year-old pregnant woman, Jennifer Ogbonna, raised the emotion
of people recently at Zone 2, Police Headquarters, Abeokuta, Ogun
State, when she narrated how her sister tricked her into slavery and
sold her off with her 7-month old pregnancy. She was then transported

Suspect opens up
38-year-old Muyiba said,
The wife, Muyiba, was saddled with the task of nurturing the pregnant women till they deliver of their babies for onward sale.The husband, having bought their preys (pregnant women), would charm them on the spot and take them to their operational base in Abeokuta where they would nurture the victims and their pregnancies until they give birth, which they allegedly usually sell to couples that need children or for ritual purposes.
It was also gathered that when these victims were bought, the couple would force them to swear to an oath not to escape. They would charm them so that they would not escape from them and people living around and security agencies would not have any clues of what they were doing in their den.
She told Vanguard
“I was brought to Abeokuta by the woman’s husband. I don’t know that they had already paid money on my head. I only got to know in Abeokuta when I overheard the woman and her husband talking about child trafficking and I felt bad. I decided not to eat any of their food. There is one lady
in that building, they call her Adeola, she would bring food for me and I would not touch it to the extent that the woman’s husband pleaded with me to eat and still I refused and said I am going back to Aba where she brought me from.
“When I said I was going to Aba, the man was angry and said before he would allow me to go back, I must pay back the N100,000 he paid my sister for myself and my pregnancy and the expenses he incurred so far on me. After that, his wife took me to one shrine and asked me to swear to an oath not to go back to Aba or tell anybody what happened, that if I try to go back or tell anybody, she will make me mad; she would make me deaf and dumb.
“But, I discussed my plan to escape with another victim who I met there, she is Oluchi and she said that if I try it I will become mad, but, I insisted and I escaped. I ran away to the next street. When I ran to the street, I met some people and I narrated my experience to them. They advised me to report to the Police, that was how police got to know everything,

38-year-old Muyiba said,
“ I came to Abeokuta in January this year from Offa, Kwara State. I used to sell baby clothes before my shop got burnt during the crisis between Offa and Erin-Ile. I know how to prepare herbs for diabetic patients. I am a trado-medical doctor, I registered in Kwara State but not in Ogun State. I have treated three patients in Abeokuta since I have been here.”It was further gathered that the husband, identified as Ismail Yusuf, is in charge of scouting for pregnant women as he reportedly went as far as Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi and other states in the Eastern part of the country.
When asked what she was doing with the pregnant women she camped in her house, Muyiba claimed that “ it was their husbands that brought them to my place, to keep them in my place. I knew them through one Joy.“ It all happened when I saw police on Wednesday night banging that we should open the door. They came to arrest all of us. I thought my husband has run away because I was asleep when the police came. My husband is Ismail Yusuf, our children are in Kwara State. The police also arrested Muyiba’s younger sister —Seun and when she was asked her role in the incident, she passed the ball to her elder sister.
