The office of the Inspector-General of Police has been inundated with enquires on claims by Chief Olu Falae and his family that a ransom was paid to his abductors following the kidnapping incident involving him on 21st September, 2015 and eventual release on 24th September, 2015. As a law enforcement agency guided by rule of law and professional ethics we do not under any circumstance encourage the payment of ransom to kidnappers or other criminals as it is tantamount to rewarding crime and motivating other criminals to follow that path.

One of the survivors from the recent stampede in Saudi Arabia, an indigene of Osun State, resident in Warri, Delta State revealed that paramedics ignored African pilgrims and concentrated on rescuing white and Caucasian victims which resulted in a high casualty rate among Africans. He said he was stuck in the midst of dead bodies for more than two hours and there was no help from paramedics, who favoured whites over blacks.

This is the bizarre moment a dead snake kept wriggling - despite half of its body being completely crushed. The deceased reptile was lying on the drive way of a house in Charleston, South Carolina, but continued to move the tail-end of its body. But the usual explanation that involves nerves continuing to send signals to the spinal cord - resulting in muscles twitches and spasms after death - is not the reason in this case.
