NIGERIA EXTRADITES CHINESE GANG LEADER IN LANDMARK INTERPOL OPERATION

Abuja, August 24, 2025 – In a decisive move against transnational crime, the Nigeria Police Force, in collaboration with Interpol, has extradited Dai Qisheng, a notorious Chinese gang leader wanted for violent crimes in Guizhou Province, China.

Dai was arrested in Abuja on August 8, 2025, following weeks of coordinated surveillance by the Interpol National Central Bureau (NCB) Nigeria. After due process, he was repatriated to Beijing on August 15, 2025, through a police-to-police cooperation framework involving Interpol NCB Beijing and the Chinese Embassy in Nigeria.

Inspector-General of Police, Olukayode Adeolu Egbetokun, described the operation as a landmark achievement, stressing that “Nigeria will not be a safe haven for fugitives of international crime.”

Interpol officials also confirmed that Dai had fled China in 2024 to evade arrest, but his network was dismantled after intelligence sharing between both countries. His return is expected to aid further investigations into organized criminal groups linked across Asia and Africa.

This operation not only highlights Nigeria’s role in strengthening global law enforcement but also demonstrates the value of international cooperation in tackling organized crime, cyber fraud, and related cross-border offenses.

Madagascar has been plunged into deep political and military turmoil as President Andry Rajoelina dissolved the lower house of parliament following a series of dramatic events that have shaken the island nation. The move comes amid mounting protests, divisions within the armed forces, and reports that the President fled the country fearing for his life. The latest developments began when tensions escalated between Rajoelina’s government and sections of the military aligned with opposition figures.

These soldiers reportedly occupied strategic locations, declaring that they were intervening to “restore order and democracy.” Facing growing unrest and loss of control over key state institutio...

TRUMP DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO CHICAGO AMID RISING UNREST

TRUMP DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO CHICAGO AMID RISING UNREST In a move that has sparked widespread debate across the United States, President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. The decision, according to the White House, comes in response to a series of violent protests, vandalism, and reported lawlessness that have gripped parts of the city in recent weeks. Administration officials say the deployment is aimed at restoring peace and protecting federal buildings, businesses, and citizens, but critics argue it marks another instance of federal overreach and political showmanship. The announcement was made late Saturday following a high-level security briefing at the White House. In his statement, Trump emphasized that the federal government “would not sit idly by while chaos and violence undermine public safety.” The president pointed to reports of shootings, looting, and clashes between demonstrators and police as justification ...
