Arrests made over killing of 4 UNIPORT students

Ibim Semenitari is the Rivers State Commissioner for Information
I can confirm to you guys that the Chief of Aluu community has been arrested and is in police custody. Some people I have been in touch with got the info from the Rivers State Commissioner of Police. There are also reports that at least 12 others have been arrested and more arrests will be made in the coming days.

Meanwhile, the deputy registrar of University of Port Harcourt, Williams Modi, said the school will issue a statement once they get all the facts - I.e, the true identities of the victims and what actually transpired on the day of the reported incident.

Also, I heard that residents of the community have started fleeing the area to avoid being arrested. Please continue...

Before I broke the story on Friday, I spoke with three different UNIPORT students, one of them my cousin (he was the one who sent the story to me) and they all said the same thing. That the Aluu community said they killed these boys because they stole. I asked the students what the victims supposedly stole, and they said - the people who killed them said they stole phones and laptops. That was why I made that my headline...

But since then, we've heard different versions of what happened on that early Friday morning...different versions! Below is another one...which suggests the boys didn't steal the phones and laptop but took it by force...



At this point, I really don't care what these boys did. Not that I condone any form of crime, but there's no excuse for what the Aluu community did to these boys. No excuse! Even people that have been prosecuted for a crime and condemned to die are shown some kind of respect. These boys were treated like animals. Maybe even worse. Animals we kill for consumption are not treated like this. So we must all rise and condemn this act. This is the land that will be home to our children and children's children.

The right to life is a fundamental right!

  11. This is the most horrific and gruesome act I've ever seen. What is this country becoming. How on earth would people with blood running through their veins actually watch such a thing happening? Its soooo heartbreaking..the sorrow and nightmares they have put the families- especially the mothers of these ones through is unimaginable. This people have taking heartlessness and wickedness to a whole new level.How savage! How pedestrian!How low can we go as human beings. Please if anyone driving hits a pedestrian on the road, DO NOT STOP. This just might be the end. A word is enough for the wise. I just pray this would not be like all the other cases which would be talked about for a couplle of weeks and then silence......

  14. I am in this fight together with you,Linda.This barbarism has to stop.What is becoming of Nigeria?So much crime.I will fight for myself and my children bcos I can't live in a whiteman's land forever.The incompetent bastards in power should get out cos we need change.We can't keep watching things get worse everyday.Uniport students why are u keeping silent?Greatest Ife students would have fought back mercilessly.ALUTA CONTINUA VICTORIA ACERTA.

  15. The govt should deal with those guys who committed the act,including the vigilantees

    ReplyDelete
  16. This is a serious matter!
    Who is the guy that was owing them?
    By the way was the traditional ruler part of the mob?
    I'm of the opinion so many wrongs have been done already, no need 4 more.
    We as a nation should use this opportunity to review our justice system.
    The Police force has a lot of repenting to do.

  17. The boy who owed the money should be arrested too and sentenced to death.... I have not recovered from the shock of that video! I cried my eyes out! These guys can't die in vein! I'l fly to ph and protest if that would make a difference! Justice must be served!

    ReplyDelete
  18. this is really sad!! such wickedness even to the extent of videoing instead of calling the authorities. peoples children. they dont even knoow what it took their parents to train them to that level..... God will avenge their death. they will know NO peace.......

  20. NYC-1 says: Is about time Niaja govt created a lasting impression that jungle justice has no place in the society. No matter what happens, these promising guys are gone and their families may never get over it for the rest of life. I pray and hope that these people will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law to serve as a deterrent to future occurence. It is good to know that the police have made arrests. I hope that those arrested are the real barbarians and not innocent people. We owe it to our coming generations to make the world a better place. Thank you Linda for creating awareness. We are in this together. My condolence to the families of these promising guys.

  22. These students were cult members who staged an attack on another cult member for the purpose of overthrowing his regime.It was not an armed robbery attack contrary to what people were led to believe.

  23. Linda, I av never had cause to post a comment on your blog but this story is just beyond horrifying!!! How people can even do this to fellow human beings is beyond me. I sincerely hope with the arrest of the tradition head of this cannibalistic community, some of the culprits will be fished out and brought to justice.

  24. These students were innocent.. they were just killed for nothing and this is the case of a failed nation that cannot protect its citizens and provide adequate security for life's and property... i ask Nigerians to stand up and defend these young Nigerians>>> and as they say the youth are the leaders of tomorrow

  25. Nekii Deedee Kosa: I'm a student of uniport,and if you have an iota of idea what students and the locals of Aluu community experience in the hands of robbers on a daily basis,even in broad day light, then you will not be quick to judge the pepertuators of this act. My classmate was killed month's ago in this same community on his way to his room,by a group of guys who wanted his phone. He wouldn't oblige and he was murderd in cold blood. What did the police do? Nothing. Did you hear of it? Of course not,cause nobody put it up on facebook? On two different occasions,my female friends,were raped and robbed on their way to their off campus rooms after school,at about 8pm. What did the police do? Did you hear about that? I personally came back from school one day and everything in my room was gone! My refrigerator,laptop,tv,everything! That was the day i made a resolve never to stay off campus for the rest of my stay in school. I took what was left of my properties straight to the campus hostel. I didn't even bother reporting nothing to no police cause i knew it would be useless. Numerous and i mean numerous of such crimes happen in Aluu on a DAILY basis. These people have cried to the govt and yet nothing is done. Police,police everyday,yet a criminal is never caught. So what do you expect? I'm in no support of this evil killing of these young men,don't misunderstand me,but maybe this cruel vigilante system is the only way these people have deemed fit to protect themselves. It reminds me of the "bakassi boys" of the eastern communities of the old. This is an outcry to the goverment. They should expect much more of such dastardly acts. If they won't protect the people,the people will protect themselves

    My personal investigation reveals that the Uni port students are not thieves,no arms found on them,they went to recover debt from a friend" who now refused to pay, they seized his lap top and he started shouting thieves on them.

    As a journalist I went on an investigative journalism and my findings was that d guys are not thieves but cultist on a mission to kill the leader of their cult group. These guys are from rich homes, two of them move on jeeps. They were incensed by the overbearing attitude of their cult leader and decided to topple him. Not knowing that the place was in the radar by some resolute vigilante boys following persistent handset theft and rape, five of them embarked on a journey around 3am with their axe and knife on hand trying to gain entry into their targets abode. The target who is their cult leader was however sensitive enough to notice their presence and started screaming - 'thief, thief' which attracted the attention of the vigilante who rounded them off. One out of the five cult guys escaped allbeit with a gunshot wound he sustained from the vigilante while trying to escape. It was this 5th cult guy that escaped but later died in Agip that narrated the ordeal before he died that gave us the tip that they were set up as thieves instead of an equally bad CULTIST. The things they claim was stolen was never found on them and perhaps some persons wanted them dead all their confessions were waved. I agree Cultism itself is a social problem, but to take a life on the guise of what he did not do is injustice. Perhaps it's God's way of giving the cult leader another chance to renounce an embrace God, who knows he would have been the one dead had he not employed the false accusation alarm. I think all relevant investigative agencies shld come into this matter especially why some group of persons should defy police order to hand over a criminal. Don't get me wrong, for attempting to take a soul they deserve to be paid in their coin but this should be done within the armbit of the law not unsubstantiated accusations and taken laws into our hand in the name of vigilante. One of d major militia groups in Rivers state started with a vigilante and we will not want a repetition of that. THANKS

  32. That's good. The perpetrators of this brutal and useless act called jungle justice should be arrested and charged with murder. I think about the video and i have goose bums all over. How can human beings be so brutal to the fellow beings. no amount of crime deserves that sort of death.

  37. Justice. Justice. Justice! I don't care either, they should have handed them over to the police and the truth would have prevailed.

    But instead, they killed in the worst way ever by savages. May all those who had a hand in their deaths never know peace, their children will be cursed for this.

    Justice. May God have mercy on the souls of these four young men cut short in their prime.

  38. linda, like i said before i feel your pain and anger. alu or oolu community should be stigmatised and blacklabelled for some time to come. for u to see children and murder them in cold blood is just babaric. at the end of the day we would now blame politicians and the police for the ills in the society when people like the people or aalu are killing human beings at will. however i also think we should address the root cause of jungle justice and address it to its bearest minimum.

  39. if d 2nd story is true, den it is even more pathetic. In law, dia actions of confiscating d debtors properties can successfuli b argued unda d head of Honest Claim of Property. I hope the debtor is also arrested and prosecuted 4 conspiracy 2 commit murder!

  44. May that community never have peace, they have shed the blood of 4 young men in a very horrible way ( i watched the video and i am in shock).
    whether they stole or not I don't care, these are our fellow human beings! When did Nigerians become so unfeeling, people were taking pictures and videoing. That chief should face murder charges and he should be hung along with the rest of the murderers. Anyone renting a house in Aluu should leave that place, they are animals and barbarians.

    TO THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT, RIVERS STATE GOVERNMENT AND ITS SECURITY AGENCIES IN AND AROUND RIVERS STATE. TO LEAVE UNARRESTED AND UNPUNISHED THE PERPETRATORS OF THIS ACT WILL CERTAINLY BE ONE MORE DEATH/DECAY/DEGENERATION OF OUR SOCIETY AND COUNTRY.

    GOVERNOR AMECHI,PRESIDENT GOODLUCK, IGP,SSS, THE JUDICIARY AND THE NIGERIAN PRESS. WE WAIT TO SEE HOW THIS STORY TURNS OUT, MAYBE THIS WILL HELP SHOW THAT EVERY SANE SOCIETY HAS RULES WHICH MUST BE OBEYED,NO ONE TAKES LAWS IN THEIR OWN HANDS EXCEPT IN A LAWLESS SOCIETY...

    MAY THE SOULS OF THE LOST ONES IN MUBI KILLINGS AND THOSE OF THIS MOST UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT IN ALLU ALL REST PEACEFULLY.

God pls av mercy on their souls, even if they stole, they were harmless wen they caught them, they shld av handed them over to d Police.

  67. @Linda...This is so so disheartening. I also heard from a reliable source that they didn't steal, but only went to collect the money owed.
    It is heartbreaking that women in that community couldn't help save these young men. The man in the video with big check shirt (i think it was blue) should be arrested. No matter their crime, would he want his own son to be treated that way? I wouldn't be surprised if he is related to the person who raised the alarm...
    I sympathise with the parents of these young boys, whose destinies have been ruthlessly cut short.

    I don't care to know what those boys did - they definitely did not deserve the kind of treatment they got.

    How sick and barbaric have our youths become! The police should not spare anyone involved in this - even those who had the heart to film such barbaric acts instead of calling for help. Oh! They should be so seriously dealt with!

    And I pray God Almighty grants the deceased family the strength to go through this disastrous time. I feel so pained.

  108. I am sooo enraged @ this gruesome act of pure evil and typical example of man's inhumanity to man. Even if those boys stole or even maimed someone foe God's sake they deserved to have been treated better than that. Hope people will now learn the ripple effect of jungle justice. how do u maim such young boys based on baseless accusations? May God punish all the perpetrators, and the onlookers who watched and did nothing to stop dis horrible crime but take pictures and videos while these innocent souls were being ripped away. They will all never know peace until dey die. AMEN! I have spoken GBAM! May God console and comfort their parents.

  112. Presido, Have u seen d video of brutal & savage killing of 4beautiful young men with bright future? Young men frm Engineering & Theatre Arts Deptmts UNIPORT? What's my President's view about it? I think u should reach ur River State Governor 2 reach d community & find out what realy happened. Goodluck & wise reign. Mom (Mama 4 Real) Chinwe Owoh.this waz 4rm my mum 2 her actors guild's president, nd dis waz her replie -The national President of Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, Ibinabo Fiberisima condemns the gruesome killing of 4 UNIPORT students. The first female President of the Thespians shed tears after watching the gory video of the killing. I am deeply touched as a mother, its too barbaric for civilised society governed by laws she said.
    However, the President commends the effort of the Governor of the State, His Excellency, Rotimi Ameachi for the quick response in arresting some of the culprits. His action is a reflection of a responsible and responsive leader who listens to the voice of his people.
    We urge him to persecute this evil perpetrators.
    The AGN President commiserate with the deceased families and pray that Almighty God will give them the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss and the Soul of the departed to Rest in Peace.
    She appealed to the public including the university community to maintain peace.

How often are people killed and murdered in broad day light in Nigeria that it is now something to photograph/video? Have we become so heartless to say no to violence or to stop a violent act when we see one?

    No matter how I try I still cannot get my head around the fact that these four young boys where killed for absolutely nothing!

    I can only imagine what the families are going through right now.

So please keep us posted on this matter as I will like to follow to the end.God knows if I were to be the judge handling this matter the whole community would be held liable for it or better still go there @ nite n pour petrol on every household n even @ the entrance of the town so there will be no escape route when I set up the town ablaze.

  128. Gbam! Linda, you have said it all. It is so sad. I really don't care about what the boys did. The people of Alu are not Law Enforcement Agents! It is the duty of the police to arrest offenders/criminal. And even when civilians arrest, the law doesnt say that the offender should be lynched or beaten. There is presumption of innocence until a criminal/offender is proven guilty and in this case, it has to be beyond reasonable doubt. It just doesnt make sense. They should be punished. Justice must prevail! Y

We are outraged because they are boys,we all went to universities in this country, at least a good number of us that read blogs and stuff, and we understand that these could have been anyone of the boys we knew at one point in time or another. It could be my brother,cousin or friend,we will not make heroes out of criminals but for goodness sake Ђδω much is a bloody laptop especially when we are in a country where billions are being looted on a daily by those who know better??? I never for one minute believed that they are even thieves,I'm just vexed! This is not right! The people of Aluu will never know peace for this act of inhumanity!

    2. When every tom dick and Harry is given a uniform and called policeman, how are they supposed to know their job. Frankly speaking I don't get how security is so difficult to achieve in this country when it's as easy as putting every police man through continuous trainings, I mean how hard is it to provide sedan cars (oh I forgot, they only use hilux cos of our bad roads) to patrol every street and communities? What of patrol helicopters? It's so annoying that you can't even dial 911 to get to through to the police, they have to keep publishing gsm numbers like you'd have the have the time to remember the long numbers which may never be available when in panic and when u need it. Do I start to talk of our poorly equiped and untidy police stations. It really isn't as far fetched as we think.

    It is not easy to speak out for the truth in this day and age.There are indeed many wonders in this world,the greatest of which is man.I went to UNIPORT too.The bitter truth is that entire Rivers state and its people as a whole is not very receptive to strangers,God help you if they now feel threatened by your percieved success.Things like going to school,getting a good job,owning a thriving business on their soil.It is not an easy something oooh!but evil is in its most toxic form from Alakahia onwards.The hostility there ehn!It's on another level.

  162. I refused to watch the video or view the pictures I already pictured what the scene was like from what I read. I wonder,if I couldn't even watch it based on what I read, I wonder who had the heart to video this injustice till the end and even the ppl that stood by and watched? Even if they stole electronics, since when did we start equating human lives with electronics? It would have been more understandable if they were caught masked with gun in hand and evidence of what they stole piled up probably with the PPl they murdered lain beside them but no, no evidence just word of mouth. I saw a picture where they were covered in blood naked, linda naked. Besides ryt to life, they also have a ryt to human dignity. Our police force and government both federal and state should prove to that chapter 4 of our constitution was not written in vain. They deserve justice and they shall get thay justice they deserve. Whoever it is that Brutally carried out these murders needs to be given a dose of his own medicine in bits until the day of his final execution. It's high time we stood up for ourselves and our country and stop waiting for our government our government alone does not make up a country, it is we the ppl that do and until we show our government that we have refused to let matters such as this be swept under the carpet, then and only then will they wake up. #justice for Aluu4.

  164. Which way Nigeria? This is by far the most horrible thing I've ever seen in my life. How wicked can people be? No matter what, those guys do not deserve to die d way they did no matter their crime. Govt should not let these young men die for nth. I can't even begin to imagine what their families will be going thru. May God comfort them n may he heal our land. God bless u Linda, much love.

  167. Linda, May God bless u and protect u for your kind of ministry. May the souls of those guys be in heaven. Meanwhile, the only guide the men in power need is to ask themselves "what would I do if my kid was involved?" And den enuff answers will come. In my own opinion, even if d govt does notn, u will see dat d land will wither. Just wait and see. Pls fellow LIBers, say a one minute prayer for Nigeria everyday.

  169. When constituted authority fails, savagery becomes the order of the day. this was how it was in the days of Bakassi boys in the South East, mainly Aba and Onitsha, where humans were slaughtered at major junctions around the city in broad day light and people (including women and child) cheered (and most sickening) because the government via the police were incapable of protecting them! creating an evil consciousness of people being numb to the sanctity of human life. Chibuike Amaechi, governor of Rivers state, has to not just apprehend the killers, but ensure that justice runs its full course, as a deterrent to others! If not this devilish act is bound to happen again! So Sad indeed! Call them cultists, armed robbers, thieves, they ought to have been handed over to the police, and the community would ensure that the boys are persecuted, of course knowing how corrupt the police are! But killing them in any way and much more the way they did is evil and only releases a vicious
    cycle of blood thirst! Again so sad!

  170. Everybody involved and arrested should be killed exactly the way they killed the poor boys. i hope they have arrested that Demon who was hitting them with a big stick as if it was a snake he was killing. that one should be the first to die. and they must ensure he is being whopped with a big stick as well before putting a tire round nhis neck. JEEZ! how can people be so wicked? since its jungle justice, they had better kill em all. rubbish!

  171. Arrest is not enough, if am a family member of any of those boys. I would make sure every freaking soul present and their families suffer tirelessly for taking someone else life into their hands. Life cut short for mere junks. Barbaric animals. As for the mothers of those boys, please make sure everyone present at the scene suffer. Makesue justice is served for boys.

  172. Linda, God bless you!

    This is one atrocity which must not go without ALL the perpertrators and conspirators paying maximally for their murderous madness!

    I am counting on you and other sincerely outraged folk to help ensure that Our friends, Gov. Amaechi, Mrs Semenitari, IGP Abubakar et al don't "forget" to expedite justice in this case.

    Shalom.

  173. Linda, in as much as I appreciate all you've been doing to fight and promote laudable causes, but it seems you select issues to fight against or promote. cos had it you've put the same energy and talked about the case involving Deejay Tee and the innocent young man he battered and stabbed some months ago, the same way you are fighting for the arrest and punishment of those responsible for the killings of the four Uniport students (Which I condemn totally as well), I bet you, Deejay Tee would have been arrested by now and made to face the full wrath of the law for what he did. But being in the same industry as him, I guess you were afraid to step on toes. that was why you refused to get involved in the matter involving Deejay Tee and the guy he battered and stabbed...Linda, lets be objective and endeavour to do what is right, all the time! well done all the same.

  174. Infact what to comment on this post,I dunno. The violence,the heartlessness,the braveness of someone hitting a fellow man to death. I can't even stand the sight of blood. My God!!! The images just wouldn't go away from my head. I watched the video and couldn't finish,I should never have started. Pls if you haven't watched the video,DON'T!!! I pray God accepts the souls of those young men into Heaven no matter what they did,no one human deserves to die like that,nooooo nooooooo,OMG!!! What is happening in Nigeria?? The world is coming to an end and the judegement will be worse than that of Soddom and Gomorra. Jesus have mercy!!!

  175. @ Anderson Ezekiel Hart ,fuck off with your fake ass investigation, and all your warped waffle, the killing and taking the souls is not new to the world and certainly not you your perverse nation, what is unique is your brahrent and disgusting demonic way you watch the most mind numbing crap unfold before your eyes and you evil asses stand and watch and congugrate, sick fuckers, you beyond help, no thanks to the internet pricks like you have a platform to post your waffle,fool.calling theif is a common habit of your people,i would rather a cult than someone calling out thief knowing that the entire commuinty are vagabons and hyienas and their fate would be sealed in the spectacular way you do your evil, rotton prick , rattening on about investigating. God curse you all and your sick dark ignorant hearts.

  180. Its quite unfortunate that the true story of this situation can only be told by those boys, they were never even given a chance for questioning just judgement immediately. Even the bible said "anyone without sin should cast a stone first" if we were to be judged by God like this, the planet earth would be empty by now. Justice must prevail. http://brownsugie.blogspot.com

  182. Tears are pouring down my eyes as I read this comments this morning I couldn't read them yesterday cos I fell sick immediately after watching the video I threw up everything I ate butvi still find it hard to believe my fellow human being was killed painfully and burnt alive. What is this country turning into. Noo matter what they did should they be killed like this . What made me well yesterday was when I got a message from my friend seun oloketuyi that some of them have been arrested I sent a BC and I gotten responses of joy. Bur I will end this way MAY ALL THE PEOPLE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEATH OF THIS BOYZ NOO KNOW PEACE MAY THEY SUFFER THIS KIND OF PEACEFUL DEATH.

    GOD BE WITH INNOCENT SOULS AND PROTECT US AND OUR FAMILY IJN. Enuff said.

    MARKETING MOGUL.
