00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>States US announced that President Vladimir Putin of Russia will

4
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>meet with him next week Friday in the U S

5
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:18.719
<v Speaker 1>state of Alaska, and stated, while answering questions from the

6
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>White House reporters, that there will be some swapping of

7
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>territories to the betterment of both Ukraine and Russia, specifically

8
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.239
<v Speaker 1>saying we will get some back and we will get

9
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:30.920
<v Speaker 1>some switched. There will be some swapping of territories to

<v Speaker 1>the betterment of both, a statement that immediately and apparently

11
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:38.479
<v Speaker 1>drew the attention of the Ukrainian President, Voladimir Zelenski, who

00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:42.159
<v Speaker 1>have issued series of video and written press releases since

<v Speaker 1>President Donald Trump made the announcement, insisting that Ukraine will

00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:48.920

15
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>purpose of peace or to end the war, emphasizing that

16
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:56.399
<v Speaker 1>it was because President Putin occupied part of ukraine territory

17
00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:59.880
<v Speaker 1>in the past and assembled its troops. Ukrainian borders were

<v Speaker 1>items when he came to the station to honour the

27
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:39.079

00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>from the Office of the Inspector General of Police for

<v Speaker 1>Omila Saware, in a statement on Thursday made available through

41
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>the verified personal social media handles of Saware, said that

00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:39.039
<v Speaker 1>the police presented two petitions against Sware over alleged forgery

43
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and defamation of character, adding that some police officers from

<v Speaker 1>the IGP Monitoring Unit as early as six a m.

00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:50.960
<v Speaker 1>On Thursday entered Soware cell at the Force Intelligence Department

46
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 1>in Abuja with alleged pretense to take the media publisher

47
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.680
<v Speaker 1>to court, but when the journalist demanded to see the

48
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 1>charges against him, he was alleged handled roughly by a team.

49
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:04.639
<v Speaker 1>Anambra is no doubt one of the states in Nigeria

50
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>experiencing incessant and very high rates of kidnapping that in

51
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>some cases do lead to the death of the abducted

52
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>victims and killing of security operatives and some other persons

53
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 1>around the scene of the mostly monetary crimes of hostage

54
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 1>taking for a ransom. Specifically, our crime reporters gathered that

55
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>there is hardly no week without one or two persons

56
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:28.360
<v Speaker 1>being kidnapped. Along the innisho A wary federal road in

57
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:32.520
<v Speaker 1>a Nambra State, especially between Over community and Ihiala town,

58
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.840
<v Speaker 1>as we gathered that most victims of kidnapping in the

59
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>state are hard working small and medium sized business owners

60
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.960
<v Speaker 1>who most of whom struggled out of poverty to become

61
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:47.159
<v Speaker 1>wealthy successful traders. This we learned there may be no

62
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.120
<v Speaker 1>wealthy successful business owner along the Ihiala or who road

63

<v Speaker 1>left to be kidnapped or forced to pay ransom to

64
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:58.039
<v Speaker 1>the kidnappers, while in Ober, wealthy people are being kidnapped

65
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.479

94

<v Speaker 1>enemy of Christians, stating that Israel has a thriving Christian community,

146
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:24.679
<v Speaker 1>the only thriving Christian community in the broad radius of

147
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:28.799
<v Speaker 1>the Middle East. Where Christians are not tolerated, they're cherished,

148
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:33.519

<v Speaker 1>the birthplace of Jesus. When Israel left and the Palestinian

150
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.200
<v Speaker 1>authority came in, the Christian majority shrank from eighty percent

151
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.320
<v Speaker 1>to under twenty percent because there was no more Israel

152

168
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:47.399
