Former Big Brother Naija star, Adekunle Olopade, has come forward with claims that he was detained by police officers for eight hours.
The reality TV personality, who gained fame during the ‘Level Up’ season, shared his ordeal on Snapchat, alleging that he was handcuffed, physically assaulted, and unlawfully held against his will.
Adekunle described the incident as a terrifying, near-death experience, which he believes he survived only through divine intervention.
As of press time, the Nigerian Police Force has yet to release an official statement regarding his allegations.
In other news… Nigerians on social media have expressed shock and disbelief after an old National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) pamphlet from 2021 resurfaced online, containing controversial safety advice for corps members and staff traveling on high-risk roads.
According to the pamphlet, those traveling through insecure areas were instructed to inform their family, friends, and colleagues in advance so that someone could be ready to “pay off the ransom that could be demanded” if they were kidnapped.
The resurfaced advisory, shared alongside a viral image of another handbook outlining “what to do when kidnapped or taken hostage,” has reignited conversations about the state of security in Nigeria and the government’s perceived failure to protect its citizens.
In the viral image, the handbook listed shocking survival tips, such as:
“Do not resist armed kidnappers.”
“Establish a relationship with your captors.”
“Do not attempt to escape do not be a hero.”
The similarity between the NYSC advisory and the newly circulated document has fueled widespread criticism and concern, with many Nigerians questioning the sovereignty and functionality of the nation’s security systems.
