METRO /Posted By; Temilola OdeniyiOperatives of the Oyo State Police Command have smashed a child-trafficking syndicate in Ibadan, rescuing a one-month-old baby girl who was allegedly sold by her mother for N2 million. The breakthrough followed a swift tactical intelligence operation that led to the immediate arrest of the infant’s mother and a medical doctor who allegedly facilitated the transaction. THENEWSCREDIT reports that the incident, which has sparked widespread outrage, occurred in the Ido Local Government Area of the state.
The suspects currently in police custody have been identified as 23-year-old Cecilia Amos, the biological mother of the rescued baby, and Dr. Adeleke Ebenezer, 40, the owner of Ebepraise Health Centre located in Ido, where the child was delivered. The Oyo State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Olayinka Ayanlade, confirmed the development in an official statement issued to journalists on Friday.
According to the police statement, the criminal conspiracy began unfolding on October 15, 2026, at about 6:00 pm, when a complainant, Mary Amos of the Ogunwade area in Ido, lodged a formal report. Mary informed the authorities that her daughter, Cecilia, had given birth to a baby girl on September 6, 2026, at Dr. Ebenezer’s private medical facility but expressed deep worry over the infant`s sudden disappearance.
THENEWSCREDIT learned that the grandmother grew highly suspicious after Cecilia vanished with the newborn just seven days after delivery. When later confronted, the young mother could not provide a satisfactory or coherent account of the child’s whereabouts, prompting her mother to approach law enforcement officials out of fear that the infant had been illicitly sold.
Acting on the formal complaint, police operatives tracked down and arrested Cecilia for intense questioning. During interrogation, the 23-year-old mother broke down and confessed to the crime, disclosing that Dr. Ebenezer and another suspect, identified as Hassan Oludunni, had lured her into the arrangement and actively facilitated the sale of her newborn daughter to a third party.
Detailed police investigations subsequently revealed that the child was sold to a buyer identified as Odunayo Folawewo for a total sum of N2 million. The illicit proceeds were shared among the syndicate, with Cecilia receiving N1 million as the mother`s share, while Dr. Ebenezer and the accomplice, Oludunni, allegedly pocketed N500,000 each for their roles in the transaction.
Following the breakthrough in the investigation, police operatives successfully located and rescued the one-month-old baby girl alive, while Dr. Ebenezer was taken into custody. DSP Ayanlade stated that the command has already launched a massive manhunt and intense efforts are ongoing to arrest the fleeing buyer, Folawewo, alongside other collaborators, to bring them all to justice.
Reiterating its stance on child protection, the Oyo State Police Command strongly urged members of the public to promptly report suspected cases of child trafficking and related offences to security agencies. Citizens can reach the Oyo State Call Response Centre via the toll-free line 615, or contact the Police Command Control Room directly on 08081768614 and 07055495413 for immediate intervention.
NEWS /Posted By; Favour Rejoice THENEWSCREDIT has captured the profound spiritual atmosphere that enveloped Ogbomoso on Saturday, October 17, 2026, as thousands of listeners tuned into the live broadcast of the popular program "NIWAJU-OLUWA" on BRAVE 91.1FM. The service was marked by deep emotional reverence and an unyielding commitment to God, drawing an expansive nationwide audience to a timely message aimed at reviving hope amidst personal and national adversities.
Preaching with profound apostolic authority, the guest minister, Bishop Akintayo Asamu, delivered a highly powerful sermon titled, "WHEN THE ROADS HAS CLOSED" (Nigba Ti Ona Ba Pin). According to reports gathered by THENEWSCREDIT, the cleric anchored his message on the dramatic biblical accounts of the Israelites at the banks of the Red Sea in Exodus 14:1-31 and the historic journey of Prophets Elijah and Elisha at the Jordan River, demonstrating how divine intervention manifests when human capacity fails.
The Bishop emphasized that when believers find themselves trapped against dead ends, fear must give way to absolute faith in God. Drawing from Exodus 14:13-14, he reminded the panic-stricken audience of Moses` charge to stand firm and witness the salvation of the Lord. He reassured listeners that just as God fought for Israel against Pharaoh`s advancing army, He remains faithful today to fight for those who trust Him, providing a way of escape in times of trial as promised in 1 Corinthians 10:13.
In his scriptural exposition, Bishop Asamu explained that when a new way forward is desperately needed, believers must look to the prophetic promise in Isaiah 43:19, where God declares He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He admonished the congregation to adhere to Proverbs 3:5-6 by trusting the Lord with all their hearts rather than leaning on human understanding, emphasizing that when physical roads close, Jesus Christ Himself becomes the living path, as stated in John 14:6.
Speaking further on the power of God to open doors that no man can shut, the cleric cited Revelation 3:8 and the miraculous deliverance of Paul and Silas in Acts 16:25-26. He noted that even with little physical strength, consistency in prayer and praises can cause immediate supernatural breakthroughs, unfastening the strongest bonds of stagnation, delay, and spiritual oppression.
The sermon reached a stirring climax as Bishop Asamu broken down the miraculous crossing of the Red Sea, highlighting the transition from the Israelites` initial panic to Moses stretching out his staff under divine command. He vividly described how a strong east wind turned the sea into dry land, allowing safe passage, before the same waters rushed back at dawn to sweep away Pharaoh`s chariots—a victory encapsulated in the triumphant songs of Moses and Miriam in Exodus 15.
Reflecting on the prophetic transition of power at the Jordan River between Elijah and Elisha in 2 Kings 2, the Bishop challenged listeners to evaluate their personal devotion and service to God. He pointedly asked the audience to reflect on their sacrifices for their Maker and what legacy they would leave behind in the house of God and His vineyard.
The cleric urged the nation not to give up when faced with seemingly impassable barriers, stating that if a road is closed, believers must possess the faith to create another route through divine backing. He declared that with perseverance and total reliance on God`s grace, every listener would safely reach their destined earthly and spiritual breakthroughs.
THENEWSCREDIT observed intense emotional responses from listeners, many of whom flooded the station`s communication lines with testimonies of renewed hope, repentance, and re-dedication to God. The message was widely described by the public as a therapeutic balm for the brokenhearted and a vital blueprint for navigating current societal hardships.
Bishop Asamu concluded the live broadcast with an intense session of prophetic prayers, decreeing that whatever challenges the listeners were currently passing through, victory was guaranteed. He assured the public that the same God who split the Red Sea apart, as recounted in Psalm 136, remains alive to make a supernatural way out of every humanly impossible situation.
NEWS /Posted By; Favour Rejoice The First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has called on Christian denominations across Nigeria to fiercely guard and sustain their unity, even as the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) implored the Federal Government to prioritize citizen protection, uphold the Constitution, and remain transparent in managing public resources.
The dual appeal was made on Saturday during CAN’s milestone 50th anniversary celebration held at the National Christian Centre in Abuja. The golden jubilee event also served as a platform to honour several prominent national figures, including the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, who received the prestigious Christian Icon Award.
Speaking as the special guest of honour, Senator Tinubu congratulated CAN on five decades of steadfast service to God and humanity. She noted that the anniversary theme, "Walking Together in Faith," perfectly mirrors the prayer of Jesus Christ for unity among believers.
Quoting John 17:21–22 and Ephesians 4:4–6, the First Lady stressed that scriptural foundations underscore the necessity of a single body, Spirit, and faith.
“I pray that, just as Christ prayed for the saints, all the Christian blocs and denominations will continue to remain united in Jesus’ name,” she said, wishing the association more decades of impactful service to the nation.
In his anniversary address, CAN President Archbishop Daniel Okoh declared that the association’s next 50 years must usher in a more informed, courageous, and evidence-based approach to national discourse. He emphasized that while the Church must hold political leaders accountable, its interventions must never degenerate into partisan attacks.
“The message of the Church to those in governance must be clear," Archbishop Okoh stated. "Govern well, serve faithfully, protect the people, respect the Constitution, account for public resources, listen to citizens, protect the vulnerable, strengthen institutions, and make Nigeria great.”
Okoh reviewed CAN`s five-decade legacy of defending religious freedom, justice, and good governance, but insisted that the golden jubilee should represent a renewed national mission rather than just a celebration of past milestones.
He urged religious leaders to engage in "critical collaboration" with the state—cooperating where the common good is pursued, but independently challenging authorities whenever justice demands it. He specifically championed the plight of vulnerable Nigerians, including internally displaced persons (IDPs), out-of-school children, unemployed youth, and rural farmers displaced by insecurity.
Receiving his Christian Icon Award, SGF Senator George Akume described the recognition as a humbling validation of integrity and service. He remarked that public office must always be treated as an avenue for sacrifice rather than a privilege for personal enjoyment.
“As Secretary to the Government of the Federation, I remain profoundly conscious of the enormous responsibility entrusted to me by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and of the duty to contribute to the success of the Renewed Hope Agenda,” Akume said, dedicating his award to selfless, unsung Nigerians and the country`s youth.
The historic event also witnessed the presentation of Pillar of Faith Awards to former Head of State General Yakubu Gowon (retd.), former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, and former Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN.
Other notable recipients of the Christian Icon Award included Governors Monday Okpebholo (Edo), Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta), and Seyi Makinde (Oyo).
The anniversary drew a high-profile audience of political and religious heavyweights, including the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (retd.); Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo; former SGF Boss Mustapha; and former Information Minister Prof. Jerry Gana.
Founded in August 1976, CAN continues to serve as the unified umbrella body for the Nigerian Christian community.

NEWS /Posted By; Akinwale AkintayoRenowned Nigerian comedian and gospel actor, Ayo Ajewole, popularly known as Woli Agba, has strongly defended his crew member, Dele Omowoli, following online criticism over a video showing him crying uncontrollably over the death of gospel singer Toluwanisings.
The video, which sparked intense debate on social media, featured Omowoli weeping over the loss of his close colleague and friend. Toluwanisings passed away in Ibadan on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, throwing the gospel and comedy community into deep mourning.
Reacting to netizens who labeled Omowoli`s decision to record his grief as "foolish," Woli Agba dismissed the criticism as insensitive. Speaking in a video address on Friday, October 16, 2026, the veteran entertainer explained that the video served as a critical distress signal rather than content for social media engagement.
"What people do not understand is that the video made those of us close to him realize the gravity of his emotional state," Woli Agba stated. "We immediately had to reach out to him to calm him down. Would critics prefer he grieved in isolation until something worse happened to his own health?"
Woli Agba further noted that Omowoli was not merely weeping but was actively eulogizing the deceased singer’s hard work and dedication. He emphasized that the devastating loss had taken a severe toll on the entire crew`s well-being, revealing that his own blood pressure spiked significantly after returning from mourning the late singer.
"My wife insisted I check my BP, and it was dangerously high," Woli Agba shared, urging the public to exercise empathy and caution when commenting on how individuals process trauma and grief.
The sudden demise of Toluwanisings has triggered a massive wave of grief across the country, with Woli Agba noting that tribute posts have already garnered nearly 50,000 comments from grieving fans and colleagues.
EDUCATION /Posted By; The Benue State Government has sealed two private schools, Orenda and Opal Schools, following allegations of violating state education policies and victimising pupils whose parents failed to purchase textbooks directly from the institutions. The enforcement action was executed on Thursday by the Benue Education Quality Assurance and Examinations Board (BEQAEB) after obtaining a valid court order, THENEWSCREDIT reports.
According to official statements, the closure followed numerous petitions from aggrieved parents and guardians. The regulatory board resorted to judicial intervention after the proprietor and administrators of the affected schools repeatedly failed to honour invitations to a meeting aimed at resolving the lingering complaints.
BEQAEB Executive Secretary, Dr Terna Francis, led officials of the Directorate of Enforcement and Compliance to serve the court warrant on the premises. State authorities reiterated that the government’s standing policy is designed to provide financial flexibility for families by explicitly allowing parents to reuse textbooks previously purchased for older children.
The state policy also permits parents to obtain textbook lists from schools and purchase the required books from external bookstores where prices might be more affordable. However, Orenda and Opal Schools allegedly insisted on a strict monopoly, forcing parents to buy materials directly from the school or face severe penalties, THENEWSCREDIT reports.
The board revealed that pupils whose parents bought books from outside vendors were subjected to punitive treatments, including having their homework left unmarked by teachers. In worse cases, pupils were barred from bringing external textbooks into classrooms, a practice Dr Francis described as an unacceptable violation of learners’ rights that left several children demoralised.
Further details showed that some parents who had already paid full tuition fees were given an ultimatum by the school administrations to either purchase the school-vended textbooks or withdraw their children entirely. The enforcement exercise, however, took a violent turn after the court order was served on the school’s proprietor, Onyinye Okoye.
The board alleged that the proprietor led members of staff in a physical and verbal assault against the government team, which resulted in the destruction of an official BEQAEB vehicle. The board strongly condemned the attack, emphasizing that regulatory disputes must be resolved through lawful channels rather than violence or intimidation.
Dr Francis confirmed that Orenda and Opal Schools will remain sealed until the management fully complies with government regulations and demonstrates a clear commitment to protecting the rights of pupils. He further urged the public to formally report similar policy violations to the board, assuring them that all petitions backed by evidence will be thoroughly investigated.
EDUCATION /Posted By; Akinwale AkintayoThe Federal Government has raised a major alarm over Nigeria’s basic education system, warning that high school attendance and enrolment figures are masking a deep-seated learning crisis. The government declared that evaluating schools based solely on the physical presence of pupils is a flawed metrics system that counts heads rather than the actual quality of knowledge acquired.
The Minister of State for Education, Prof. Suwaiba Ahmad, brought the issue to the fore during a national trainers` session on safe learning environments, gender-responsive technology, and ICT skills for educators in Teacher Training Institutions. She maintained that traditional registers no longer provide an accurate picture of the country`s educational health, as millions of children spend days in classrooms without receiving a functional education.
To back her concerns, Prof. Ahmad cited alarming 2024 data from UNICEF, which revealed that a staggering 74 per cent of Nigerian children aged seven to 14 years lack foundational reading, cognitive, and mathematics skills. This statistic highlights a grim reality where three out of every four children in the basic education bracket cannot read or solve basic arithmetic despite being enrolled in school.
In response to this systemic failure, the minister announced comprehensive government plans to overhaul how Nigeria assesses basic education. Moving forward, the Federal Government will integrate classroom safety, student participation, and measurable learning outcomes into its educational evaluation framework, completely shifting the focus away from mere daily attendance headcounts.
Explaining the psychological dimension of the crisis, Prof. Ahmad noted that children are frequently shut out from learning long before they ever drop out physically. She pointed out that hostile classroom environments—driven by unchecked bullying, exclusion, ridicule, and general insecurity—force many vulnerable students to mentally and emotionally detach from lessons.
In a poignant address to educators, the minister described how easily these "silent dropouts" go unnoticed by teachers who rely strictly on school registers. "A girl does not always leave school on a day her name disappears from the register. Sometimes she leaves a little early while she is still sitting in the classroom; she raises her hand and is never called upon, other children laugh when she speaks, and no one stops them," Ahmad painted the picture.
Consequently, the minister urged educators and institutional heads across the federation to prioritize what happens to learners once they step inside the school gates. She stressed that a child’s physical presence in school must be strictly matched by verifiable evidence that the learner feels safe, included, actively participates, and is genuinely absorbing the curriculum at every developmental stage.
As part of institutional remedies to curb the menace, Ahmad revealed that the Federal Ministry of Education has introduced the National Policy on Anti-Bullying in Nigerian Schools along with its implementation guidelines. However, she warned that the policy would remain a dead letter unless teachers, school administrators, and adults take decisive, protective action when confronted with cases of child abuse and emotional exclusion.
