❌⚠️ Infrastructural Damage


Ekiti : A hostel building wall collapse at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) orientation camp in Ise-Emure, Ekiti State, reportedly injured some corps members.


Advisory : This tragic incident calls for strict enforcement of building codes and regular structural assessments, especially in public and commercial areas. It's essential to ensure that all construction projects comply with safety regulations to prevent such disasters.


Suicide


Lagos : A yet-to-be-identified tricyclist died by suicide after efforts to reportedly retrieve his seized tricycle from some government agents proved abortive in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State.


Advisory : This tragic event highlights the need for more supportive mechanisms for individuals undergoing financial and emotional distress, especially in interactions involving law enforcement and regulatory bodies.


🚷 LEA Brutality


Lagos : Some Nigeria Customs Service personnel attached to Seme Command in Lagos State on Thursday night brutalised a resident simply identified as Opemipo over his refusal to give them a bribe.


Advisory : There is an urgent need for oversight and reform within law enforcement agencies to address and prevent instances of brutality and corruption. Implementing strict accountability measures and continuous training on human rights can help cultivate a culture of respect and professionalism within the forces.
