January 5, 2021. 11:30 AM - The Judicial panel of Inquiry resumes its sitting. Arrived a tad bit late due the timing of my segment on the morning show. Don’t think I’ve missed much, no petitioner has been called forward. #ENDSARS

 Here are the petitioners set to testify today. By my count today makes for the 23rd sitting for the panel but who’s counting. #ENDSARS
The first witness in the case of Adebayo Abayomi is called forward, his name is Ibrahim Yusuf, he is the lead witness for Police legal counsel Cyril Ejiofor. Yusuf is sworn in and proceeds to give his testimony. #ENDSARS
“A team of policemen attached to Mushin Division were to arrest a certain Kayode Yusuf, he resisted and SGT.Chibueze shot in the air and hit Kudirat Adebayo. We later went to recover the body, all policemen were arrested except the shooter, he ran when we arrived at the station”
Their rifles were seized and a ballistics examination performed. The other police officers have been exonerated but Chibueze has been declared wanted and is still on the run till today.. #ENDSARS
Cross examination is taken over by legal counsel for petitioner, Uyime Eyo (haven’t seen his face in these parts must be new to JPI) #ENDSARS
E: What if I say the police isn’t doing their best to catch the policeman that killed Kudirat?
Y: There is a warrant for his arrest, his accounts have been frozen, if we find him he will be brought in. #ENDSARS
Legal counsel for the panel Jonathan Ogunsanya also has his own questions for the witness-
O: Are you saying no compensation has been given to this family?
Y: I’m afraid I’m not in the best position to answer that question. #ENDSARS
O: Was this case brought to the attention of the Inspector general of police?
Y: Yes, he’s aware.

After deliberating Justice Okuwobi for a written address of no more that 5 pages to besent in within the next 7 days and the case is adjourned to Jan. 26, 2021 #ENDSARS
The next petition for Adeyemo Rotimi, Ejiofor asks for an adjournment as their witness is absent. Opposing counsel reminds counsel that their case has been adjourned twice already,Justice Okuwobi adjourns to Jan 26, 2021 stating it be the last adjournment in favor of the police
The next petition in the case of Felix Lucky, where another witness Chigozie is called forward. He aims to have been very good friends with the deceased as they were both vigilantes at Jakande estate, Lagos.
The deceased had gotten into an altercation with a certain Sergeant John, Chigozie narrates the brutal killing of his friend. #ENDSARS
E: I want you to be specific, at what point did you learn Lucky was killed ?
C: Btw 8/9
E: Would you be surprised to know that your friend Lucky led boys to Ilasan police station?
C: I’m not aware of that #ENDSARS
E: Would it surprise you know that when Lucky approached the station the vigilante group me some opc members were present? Do you know that Lucky was naked with charms on his head he was shot by an OPC member?
E: No o
#ENDSARS
Did you know cultist members wanted Lucky’s head and he was infact by saved by police officers. #ENDSARS
Police counsel, Ejiofor rests his cross and opposing counsel chooses not to re-examine. Further hearing in this case is also adjourned to Jan 26, 2021. #ENDSARS
3:01 PM - Panel is back after a short recess, earlier today legal counsel for the Lekki Concession Company asked that the panel revisit their application to start operations. Technicalities spotted by petitioners’ counsel Ogunlana are backed up Police counsel Ejiofor #ENDSARS
Ogunlana asks that the status quo be preserved. He also states that more time is needed to conduct an Independent Forensics Examination costing approx. N25M which they can’t afford.

LCC Legal Counsel: If it were a private property would guy shut it down indefinitely? #ENDSARS
“We cannot sacrifice justice on the altar of speed, it would be foolhardy to say that the panel needs not conduct forensic evidence is not needed in this inquiry. A huge amount has been paid and the forensic team says it will take 21 days” - Justice Okuwobi #ENDSARS
The Lekki investigation as if affects the LCC is adjourned to January 29th for a further consideration of the application to reopen to Lekki Toll Gate Plaza.

THE LEKKI TOLL GATE WILL REMAIN CLOSED. #ENDSARS
There’s a petition witness who isn’t on the list. His name is Adebowale Ojekaiye (a rep from Reddington hospital) based on a summons issued by a petitioner to present medical records of patients checked in between 20th - 22nd of Oct 2020. #ENDSARS
Two consultants who work at reddington and also treated some of these patients are present. Unfortunately the can’t take the witness stand, the hospital documents are submitted as exhibits and this case is adjourned to Jan 30, 2021. #ENDSARS
The next petitioner, Marc Chidebere Nwadi is called forward. Ejiofor still can’t present the policeman “Friday” who assaulted Marc way back in 1999. Opposing counsel insists it’s the police job to investigate as produce the witness #ENDSARS
His case is adjourned to Jan 26, 2021 where the final address would be given. #ENDSARS
The next and final petitioner, Blessing Omorogie is called forward. However, petitioners’ counsel is not prepared for a cross examination as they haven’t had enough time to study the case. In that light, the petition is adjourned to Jan 26, 2021 #ENDSARS

In keeping with year-end tradition, I wanted to share the best books I read in 2020 – a year unlike any other - with a list of reads heavily influenced by global events including…

…Race and social justice. While not a planned reading theme as I started the year, social injustices that have plagued our nation for centuries rose up in a jolting manner. May we pass on to our children and grandchildren a more socially just world than we received.

Frederick Douglass, David Blight

Douglass was a self-educated slave who freed himself to become a tireless speaker, political leader & passionate reformer. Even reading his speeches today, you feel drawn to the power, drama & personal suffering of this great man.

Bonhoeffer, Eric Metaxas & Timothy Keller

Theologian, Pastor, Church Leader & spy/traitor. Quite a resume for an influential young German aristocrat. Details the rise of Hitler & pure evil unleashed in the face of the pure good of Christ as seen through Bonhoeffer’s eyes.

So You Want To Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo

Jarring. We have so far to go as we confront the realities of systemic racism. Since reading I've sought out reverse mentors to try and learn more. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable. (Much profanity for those sensitive to such)

In what was United Bengal (modern day West Bengal+Bangladesh) back in 1941, Muslims were 56% of the population, and today they are approximately about 67% of the population. If you go back to the early 20th century or the late 19th century, Muslims weren't even a majority.

This

example of Bengal is what has been happening across the whole of the Indian sub-continent, albeit at a slower or faster pace as the case may be region to region, but the fact remains that the change has been unidirectional= As time goes by, the proportion of Muslims increases in

a given region and the proportion of Hindus goes down. Project the numbers out into 50 or 60 years and you have multiple states/regions of India with a Muslim plurality or outright majority. Project the numbers out to a century or so and it's difficult to argue how Hindus can

maintain cultural/political dominance in the long run. Some people like to say, "Oh well so what. Numbers don't matter, what have you achieved at 80% of the population which you're going to achieve at 90%!".

This is faulty thinking, because the direction of change itself is

the demgoraphic sense is quite critical of whether you are expanding or retreating civilisation. The more people you have relative to the enemy, the more the chances that you will adamant about taking over more territory. The less people you have relative to the enemy, the more

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.

1. Now that Stan Lee is being eulogized far and wide, it's important to remember how marginal Stan Lee and his collaborators (Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko) were in the 1950s and 1960s.

2. Marvel Comics (before that Atlas) was just a cog in the machine of a bottom pulp publisher run by Martin Goodman, the husband of one of Lee's cousins. It was the lowest of the low in the publishing world.

3. Now Mario Puzo (not yet the author of the Godfather) shared offices with Stan Lee in the 1950s and 1960s. Puzo wrote for garrish men's adventure magazines and, like Lee, dreamed of writing a novel & breaking out. But Puzo looked down on Lee.

4. Flo Steinberg, 1960s secretary at Marvel: "They were always making jokes about us. They'd come in and giggle. mario Puzo would look in and would see us all working on his way to the office and say, 'Work faster, little elves. Christmas is coming.'"

5. When JFK was killed, the whole office of Magazine Management was stunned and quiet. Except Lee. He continued working. "He was still working on the comic books," Puzo said. "Like that was the most important thing in the world."

Taking Down an Insider Threat

"I had all of the advantages. I was already inside the network. No one suspected me. But they found my hack, kicked me off the network...

...and physically hunted me down."


Many pentests start from the outside, wanting to see how the perimeter might be breached.

This pentest started from the inside. My client wanted to assume they had already been breached, and, if breached, how far could an attacker go.

Could they stop me once I was inside?

So they snuck me in. Disguised me as a new employee. Gave me a work computer, an ID badge, an account in their system... hell, I even had a cubicle w/my assumed name on it.

The only person who knew who I really was was their CISO. Everyone else thought I was Jeremy in Marketing.

During most of the first morning, I completed onboarding, made introductions, and completed menial tasks.

But I had to act quick. I only had a week onsite. I had to hack their network while not raising suspicion.

So I set about it.

You have to understand... most "Internal Pentests" are straight forward. The hard part is breaching the network, but once you're inside, it's a target rich environment. End of Life computers, default passwords, everyone a Local Administrator...

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
