Top 10 Newspaper Headlines Monday, September 12th 2022

Good morning! Here is today’s summary from Major Newspapers in Nigeria

PUNCH NEWSPAPER

1. DSS warns Nigerians over utterances on Mamu’s arrest

The Department of State Services has warned Nigerians over making comments on its arrest of the terrorists’ negotiator, Tukur Mamu.

The DSS, in a statement by its Spokesman, Peter Afunaya, Sunday, asked the public to leave the agency alone and allow it to concentrate on the investigations which it said the outcomes had been “mindboggling.”

This was coming hours after the controversial Islamic cleric, Sheik Gumi, to whom Mamu is an aide, had faulted the arrest of the negotiator.

Gumi, at a religious gathering on Friday, said, “Nigeria’s constitution did not say you can arrest someone without any proven evidence criminalising him and without charging him to court. You cannot arrest and keep him in detention arbitrarily.

“Take him to court to face trial. Keeping him in custody despite being a family man was just to intimidate him. This intimidation is also terrorism. Arresting people unjustly is also terrorism; just like the terrorists do by going to somebody’s house to kidnap him.

2. Al-Qaeda releases book on 9/11 attacks planning

The Al-Qaeda terrorist network, on Sunday, released a book written by a senior member including a detailed timeline leading up to the attacks on several United States airlines on September 11, 2001, which left nearly 3,000 people dead in three locations.

Marking the 21st anniversary of the attacks, the book was written by Abu Muhammad al-Masri, a senior Al-Qaeda member who was reportedly killed in Iran in 2020.

In the nearly 250-page volume, he said that al-Qaeda had been preparing for an attack targeting US interests since it set foot in Afghanistan in 1996, with the goal of dragging the US into a long-term war of attrition.

The initial idea came up when an Egyptian pilot suggested flying a civilian plane carrying thousands of gallons of flammable material into “an important and symbolic American building,” according to the book shared online by al-Qaeda’s media arm, As-Sahab.

Some militants were chosen for further combat training in 1998 and then enrolled in aviation schools in different parts of the world.

3. Oil theft: NNPCL loses $700m monthly

Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited said it lost 470,000 bpd to crude oil theft, especially those perpetrated in the oil-rich Niger Delta region.

The loss, it said, has hindered it from reaching its production quotas set by the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries. This accrues to $700m lost monthly between March and September 2022

However, the company said it has assembled an array of digital control systems to curb the losses.

The Group General Manager, National Petroleum Investment Management Services, Bala Wunti, disclosed this to journalists in Abuja.

According to Wunti, the pipelines, particularly those around the Bonny terminal, cannot be operated due to the activities of criminals.

4. 2023 election is choice between freedom, doom — Atiku

He noted that the countdown to the general campaign is drawing closer hence the need for Nigerians to be reminded of what lays ahead.

Atiku said this in a personalized letter to Nigerians on Sunday.

He explained that since the clock for the take off of the campaigns will soon begin to tick, “It is very important that we use the remaining days to organize our base and establish our strength in all the 176,846 polling units across the country.

5. Gunmen attack Ifeanyi Uba’s convoy, kill 3 in Anambra

THREE police escorts in the convoy of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah representing Anambra South senatorial zone were feared dead when he was attacked at Enugwu Ukwu in Njikoka local government area of the state on Sunday.

An eye witness said the senator was reportedly injured in the attack in which some people described as an assassination attempt on the Young Peoples Party, YPP, senator.

“I was driving up to that spot from the link road to the express when some people in a shop shouted at me and asked me to turn back and take another road, which I did”.

The state police command is yet to react on the attack.

6. Zee World premieres ‘Dance Naija Dance’ show on Dstv, GOtv

7. FG asks court to order striking ASUU back to work

The Federal Government has referred the prolonged strike of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to the National Industrial Court of Nigeria (NICN) for adjudication, following the failure of dialogue between the union and the Federal Ministry of Education.

The referral instrument addressed to the Registrar of NICN was dated September 8,2022 and signed by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige.

In the matter billed for mention by 9am on Monday, September 12,2 022 , the Federal Government asked the NICN to inquire into the legality or otherwise of the ongoing prolonged strike by ASUU leadership and members that had continued even after apprehension by the Minister of Labour and Employment.

8. DSS warns against unguarded utterances over detained Mamu

The Department of State Services (DSS) has warned against unguarded utterances over the Publisher of Desert Herald, Tukur Mamu, currently in its custody.

The DSS said it will cease further comments on the subject matter since the Court will determine its course.

Following his arrest, the DSS had described Mamu, who was involved in the negotiations for release of victims of the Abuja-Kaduna train attack, as a person of interest.
