You are yet to recover from shock of defeat \u2013 Presidency to\u00a0Atiku<\/strong><\/p>\n

The presidency says Atiku Abubakar, candidate of the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP), is yet to recover from the \u201cshock of defeat he suffered\u201d in the last presidential election.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Saturday, Dele Alake, special adviser on special duties, communications and strategy to President Bola Tinubu, said the former vice president was \u201cmaking spurious and wild allegations aimed at disparaging and discrediting an important arm of government that should serve as the bulwark for our democracy\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The statement was in response to an allegation by Paul Ibe, media aide to Abubakar, earlier on Saturday, that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and agents of Tinubu have \u201cceaselessly chosen to stand in the way of justice by making \u201ccatastrophic threats to anarchy if justice is not served according to their whims\u201d.<\/p>\n

The APC on its part, described the allegation as \u201carrant nonsense\u201d, noting that the PDP candidate was trying to \u201cdeflect the shame of a highly probable defeat\u201d in the presidential electoral tribunal by making \u201cmischievous allegations\u201d.<\/p>\n

Alake said Abubakar did not put forward any convincing argument to support his claims on how the Tinubu-led administration and APC sought to \u201cundercut, undermine and compromise the judiciary\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the ill-thought-out and illogical statement, Alhaji Atiku accused the current administration of the governing APC of plotting to undermine the judiciary without providing any shred of evidence,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n

Gunmen kill two, kidnap two in Bauchi<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Some gunmen attacked and killed two residents of Tamba, a village in Ningi Local Government, Bauchi State on Friday night.<\/p>\n

Residents of the area told PREMIUM TIMES that security operatives and local vigilante members in the area rushed to the scene of the incident and conveyed the two persons to a hospital, where they were certified dead by a medical personnel.<\/p>\n

PREMIUM TIMES also learnt that two other residents of Kafin Lemo, the same local government, were kidnapped recently by an unknown group on Friday.<\/p>\n

According to the residents, those kidnapped were Yawale Lemo, 55, and Kwaine Musa, 50.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe two residents of this village, Kafin Lemo, were abducted by unknown gunmen who came into the village shooting sporadically around 2 a.m. in the night.\u201cThe two persons that were kidnapped recently by the group, were asked to make N10 million available for the kidnappers before they come. The inability to pay the money is the reason they carried out the attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo date, the group has not called to inform their families where they are or to tell them the amount they should pay as ransom before they are released,\u201d a local source who does not want his name, in print said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Troops of the Nigerian Army and State Security Services (SSS) have destroyed an enclave of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)\/Eastern Security Network (ESN) in Asaba, Delta.<\/p>\n

The Director, Army Public Relations, Onyema Nwachukwu, in a statement said the raid was conducted by troops of 63 Brigade Garrison under 6 Division and operatives of SSS in a clearance operation on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Mr Nwachukwu said the operation was part of the sustained effort to rid Nigeria of criminality.<\/p>\n

He said the troops conducted a raid operation on the fortified enclave located in the middle of a forest in the early hours of Saturday.<\/p>\n

According to him, the troops overpowered the IPOB fighters in the exchange of fire that followed the encounter, compelling them to abandon their hideout in disarray.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe troops captured one of the fleeing fighters and recovered five AK 47 rifles, three pump action semi automatic rifles, one G3 rifle and one single barrel gun.<\/p>\n
