They really got NTA Newsline to Donna entire segment defending Frank Akpan and lying about this case.

This guy must be the most powerful 20 year-old in the history of Nigeria.

Certainly not like he has powerful people in the federal government backing him or something!!!
Whoever tagged me in this, thanks for killing my appetite this night. I was in the middle of my supper.
This is how far ritual killers in Nigeria's federal government are prepared to go! This is how far reaching and insidious this is!

A whole NTA Newsline doing a whole Sunday evening segment to misrepresent Frank Akpan as a rapist who killed in "self defense"🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
They literally got the newsreader to say he "confessed to raping Ini Umoren and killing her in self defense." "For more on this unfortunate event we go to..."

Man...

My adult life is just one long unbroken tale of me sacrificing everything I was born into for the sake of ideology, belief in people and personal conviction, only for Nigeria in every single instance to find impressively creative ways of showing me that I don't have sense.
Who is the werey who walked away from a 9-figure inheritance and an arranged marriage to the daughter of the chairman of an oil servicing company, to move into a 2-bedroom flat in Bariga and marry my girlfriend from NYSC?🤚🏿
Who is the person who comes from the SI Unit of Lagos establishment families, and then decided to become some sort of Nigerian Che Guevara class traitor?🤚🏿

An innocent human being was murdered while just trying to make her life better. That's what all this is about.

It's about Ini Umoren.

The ability to always maintain such perspective is a very useful life skill. Not everybody can have it, unfortunately.
When Dr Ignaz Semmelweiss in the 1800s theorised that doctors should wash their hands to cut cross-infection, despite a successful trial of his idea, his colleagues ganged up on him and had him stripped of his license and locked in a psychiatric home where he was beaten to death.
It wasn't about the patients for them. It was about hierarchy and maintaining the status quo and not being outshone by an eccentric Young Turk whose idea led to a 99% drop in cross-infection at his maternity unit.

This behaviour is as old as humanity. It's not unique to us.

Also, for future reference to Twitter's self appointed journalism gatekeepers who strangely have never achieved anything with their Press Release journalism: *A large part of investigation involves maintaining secrecy and the element of surprise.*

An amazing concept, I know.
If you're digging into a story like Hiny Umoren and you have several telephone numbers linked to the investigation, perhaps the worst thing you can do is CALL any of those numbers because YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THEY ARE LINKED TO EACH OTHER.

This is common sense.
For example I had a strong suspicion that Blessing Godwin was a potential victim of Frank Akpan, but *what if she wasn't?*

In that case, contacting her might have jeopardized not just the investigation, but potentially also Ini Umoren's chance at justice.

Little does the shameless rat know that the data representation he lifted from my story while calling me a "sensationalist" is one which I put together myself manually.

You've gone and published a screenshot from my Google Spreadsheet while patting yourself on the back. ImageImage
Ezigbote "journalist".

Extensively plagiarise my work and then have the temerity to come here and trash talk the same work that nobody at premium times or the whole of your family put together has the brains to create.

The idiot really published my Google Spreadsheet.
The audacity of a mediocre Nigerian man puts that of any white man to shame.

Lol some directors and shareholders of Nigerian Journalism and Sons Ltd same my story was cOnjEctUre.

By the end of this year, they'll be copying my writing style again like they all started doing last year after first accusing me of "injecting myself into the story."

On April 29, Ini Umoren set out for a job interview in Uyo.

She never made it home.

In this exclusive for @NewsWireNGR I explore leaked data from the murder suspect's mobile service provider and prove that he did not work alone.

This 3,000-word investigative deep dive is based on several days worth of leaked call records showing Frank Akpan's links to a senior civil servant in the Federal Ministry of the Niger Delta, as well as directly working with the Akwa Ibom State Police Command to bungle the case.
Using cellular geolocation data, this investigation proves the existence of a high level organ trafficking ring in Akwa Ibom State which has backing from the Akwa Ibom State Police Command and a senior civil servant working for high level politicians at the Niger Delta Ministry.
