Peter Obi Insists 3 Omatu Siblings Aged 40, 39, 37 Died Days After No Helphttps://osazuwaakonedo.news/peter-obi-insists-3-omatu-siblings-aged-40-39-37-died-days-after-no-help/#Life #Balogun #Ihiala #Lagos #Obi #Omatu #Peter #Uzoakwa ©January 18th, 2026 ®January 18, 2026 9:35 am Peter Obi, the former Anambra State Governor and last Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party in the Nigeria 2023 general elections has insisted that the three brothers among the 12 persons that died as a result of fire that engulfed the 25-storey Building of Great Nigeria Insurance House plaza at Balogun Market in Lagos Island on Christmas eve, called for help for days with no emergency response from the government under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying, the three siblings; Mr Stephen Onyeka Omatu aged 40, Mr Casmir Nnabuike Omatu aged 39, and Mr Collins Kenechukwu Omatu aged 37, for days, sent "distressing pleas for help while trapped in the building, yet there were no emergency services to rescue them, Several days passed in the rubble before their bodies were finally recovered, Several days of unanswered calls, of a system that failed them at the moment they needed it most", Peter Obi made this statement after attending the burial ceremony of the three siblings held at Uzoakwa community in Ihiala local government area of Anambra State on Wednesday, after Lagos State Government through the office of the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso in a statement issued on January 1, 2026 stated that as soon as the fire alarm was received on the day, the government deployed teams of first responders to the scene, including the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, Lagos State Ambulance Services, security agencies, and other emergency and safety units, but, this statement from the Lagos State Government appears not to be inline with an eyewitness account, a resident who spoke with News Central Television at the scene of the fire incident that a phone call was made across to a fire service in Lagos State, but the fire service demanded ₦30 million service fee before the fire service would respond to the emergency issue, this, the resident added that if the fire service had responded on time, the entire building would have been saved probably with no life lost because the fire was only at a single floor when the fire service was called. #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/osazuwaakonedo--4980924/support.Kindly support us for more productivity and efficiency in news delivery.Visit our donation page: DonateYou can also use our Mobile app for more news in different formats: CLICK TO DOWNDLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY STORE
In this episode, we pick the brains of an ex-APC insider Tabia Princewill (@TabiaPrincewill) , a former editor of The Guardian. She runs us through her journey as a returning diasporan, her entry into Nigerian politics in 2011, her awakening as a leftist and her experiences within the Nigerian government. With the unique perspective of a Marxist who worked within Buhari's government and Lagos State's government she shines a light on her disillusionments and the lessons learned from her experience.Standing at the intersection of gender dynamic awareness, class consciousness and ethnic politics in Nigeria, she gives a very particular and interesting view into the gears and inner workings behind the federal and state government structures. What does progressivism really mean in Nigeria? How complicit is everyone in the perpetuation of the system? Does entryism work to change the system ever? How "socialist" was Buhari's government? What is the worth of the best intentions within the party system? Listen and find out in our latest episode.

necessary steps to a genuine peace deal, and while commenting on the statement made by the President of Poland, Karol Nawrocki on Friday via X social media platform to mark Poland Armed Forces Day which coincided with the day Putin and Trump met in Alaska, President Zelenskyy said that; “Ukraine's independence strengthens Poland's independence, And we must always remember that the Miracle on the Vistula was made possible through joint efforts, and it saved Europe”, and the Polish President, Karol Nawrocki had said that: “Today we celebrate the 105th anniversary of the great Polish victory at the Battle of Warsaw in 1920, The Polish Army, together with Ukrainian forces, successfully repelled the Red Army's westward march, safeguarding Europe from a communist revolution, For centuries, Russian imperialism has been a mortal threat to our freedom, Poland's political tradition teaches that Russian expansionism rests on a legacy of domestic despotism, in which the only free man is the ruler himself, But precisely because Russian despotism is the enemy of freedom, Russian imperialism can only be defeated through an alliance of free peoples, My nation halted Russian imperialism at

withdraw the one sided and obviously biased court case the Nigeria Police Force may have wrongly instituted against an Ibom Air Passenger, Comfort Emmanson who was seen in viral videos retaliating and defending herself physically after a group of Ibom Air personnel and Lagos Airport team had attacked her and provoked her to action, the FG position on the issue was made known by the Nigeria Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo in a press release the Minister signed and made available few minutes ago, although Festus Keyamo reversed his self and acknowledged that the issue was a case of confrontation between the 26 years old passenger and the staff of Ibom Airlines who in the new press release admitted that the staff of Ibom Air and the Lagos Airport authority team acted wrongly, but, the Minister did not state how the attacked passenger would be compensated most especially when her chest sexual organs were seems to be deliberately exposed after a suspected Ibom Airline staff pulled off and tore the passenger shirt with obvious intention to expose the passenger's nakedness, the action of the Federal Government may eased the tension among millions of people who have accused the Nigeria Police Force of aiding and abetting the Ibom Airline company to continue to attack and oppress the offended passenger, Comfort Bob who is also identified as Comfort Emmanson by thus supporting the statement of Ibom Air management who in their first press release made statement that seems to have some level of deliberate falsehood and raising up a dead issue to win undue public sentiments, manipulate the Nigeria Police Force to help them secure detention holding charge from the Lagos State Magistrate Court to further oppress and intimidate the attacked passenger, specifically, Ibom Air stated in her first press release that, shortly after the plane landed at Lagos Airport, the passenger waited for every other passenger onboard the plane to disembark, and

the air hostess was still seen on her head and intact while the passenger was telling her to leave the doorway so that she can pass, obviously, this is in contrary to the seemly deliberate falsehood painted and stated in black and white by the Ibom Air Management that the air hostess attached wig hair was destroyed by the passenger without provocation, also, the attached wig hair on the passenger head and the jacket she was putting on were still intact as at the time she was telling the apparent aggressor, the air hostess to leave the door, and another viral video later showed both the air hostess and the passenger dragging at the point of the plane divider cotten, and at this time as seen in the video, both the passenger and air hostess wig hair were pulled off including the passenger jacket she was putting on to cover her body completely, the natural hair on their heads could now be seen as they continued to drag each other at the plane doorway, and Ibom Air management in trying to seemly win undue public sentiments, raised up a dead issue of a minor quarrel the passenger had with the air hostess and co passenger over the passenger alleged initial refusal to switch off her phone during the plane take off at Uyo airport, the Ibom Air management in the press release confirmed that the minor quarrel the passenger had with the air hostess and co passenger over switching off phone at Uyo airport was already a dead issue and the action of the passenger never led to threat of aviation safety or violation of aviation safety procedures hence the passenger was not deplane at Uyo airport, but we don't know why the Management of Ibom Air decided to advertise and bring up the minor quarrel as a way to seemly win public sentiments to cover up the true picture of a separate event that occurred between the passenger and the air hostess when the plane landed at Lagos Air Port, and the Nigeria Police Force in the five count charges filed against the passenger at the Ikeja Magistrate court in Lagos State, did not state or even mention the event that occurred at Uyo airport before the plane took off. #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast:

Ebenezer Olamiposi Adeyemi is a PhD Candidate in the department of anthropology at the University of Iowa (UI), under the advisement of Professor Ted Powers. Ebenezer holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology and a Master's degree in Peace and Conflict Studies -- both from the University of Ibadan in Nigeria. He also received a Master's degree in Anthropology from the University of Iowa in May 2021. Ebenezer's broad research interests center around medical anthropology, infrastructure, the intersection of urban landscape and public health, African studies, and survival strategies in marginalized urban communities. For his ongoing doctoral research, Ebenezer is exploring the strategies that residents of Makoko, a large informal settlement characterized by inadequate public infrastructure, including waste disposal systems, public hospital, in Lagos State, Nigeria, use to access healthcare to treat malaria, the most prominent public health issue in their community. Different statistics show that malaria is the main public health issue in Nigeria, where it accounts for more causes of death than any other country in the world. However, people who live in marginalized communities, which the WHO calls 'malaria high transmission areas,' are more susceptible to malaria infection and death due to government marginalization and inadequate public infrastructure, including public hospitals. Adeyemi will explore the concept of "community-developed infrastructure" to explain several ingenious approaches, including the production of locally-made mosquito nets and coils, construction of makeshift waste disposal systems and hospitals, that residents of Makoko employ to reduce their exposure to malaria-causing mosquitos and to treat the disease whenever they are infected.

A maker of multisensory artworks reflects on the importance of listening to our surroundings. In 2014, Nigerian-born artist Emeka Ogboh moved from Lagos to Berlin. This experience marked not only a shift in his surroundings, but also a shift in his artwork. “Shuttling between two places,” Ogboh explains, “your brain has to do this switch. And that fusion of two places started occurring to me.” His immersive installation Lagos State of Mind III, currently on view in MoMA's second-floor galleries, blends the experience of living in these two cities. For this month's Ten Minutes podcast, just in time for World Listening Day—an annual celebration held on July 18—we invite you to explore your surroundings and reflect on how sound shapes our world.

Damilola is CEO of Sustainable Energy for All, the UN partner organization dedicated to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7) – access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all by 2030.
