NIGERIA HAS HAPPENED TO ALABI QUADRI

We were at the Magistrate Court of Lagos, Apapa Magisterial District, today the 9th day of April, 2025 to ascertain the facts and circumstances that led to the arrest, detention and subsequent remand of Alabi Quadri at the Minimum Security Custodial Centre, Kirikiri, Apapa, Lagos.

After spending several hours at the court, I was accompanied by a colleague from our law firm, Alabi’s mother and other family members and relatives to visit Alabi at the custodial centre. Also in attendance was the social activist who brought the case to public attention.

Given the interest expressed by members of the public, it is necessary to make this preliminary statement.

We can confirm that Alabi has been in detention since January.

He was abducted by ‘Area Boys’ close to his home while returning from work.

According to Alabi and his mother, his painful walk to prison can be attributed to the prolonged malice nursed by some self-acclaimed area boys of his locality who felt entitled to a share of the unexpected fortune that came Alabi’s way when he halted and stood in front of the convoy of the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi during the last electioneering campaign.

Since he failed to properly “settle” some people, it has been one attack to another.

After abducting Alabi, the same area boys who have been threatening to deal with him for not sharing the money he was gifted dragged him to the Amukoko Police Station (Pako Police Station) where he was detained.

The area boys initially claimed that Alabi was one of the young men who has been involved in street fights.

However, it came as a rude shock when the Police took him before a Magistrate along with four other individuals who are complete strangers to him, alleging that he conspired with them to commit “Armed Robbery” with cutlasses.

The Police in the charge sheet alleged that the alleged two victims were robed of money and four mobile phones.

The value of both the physical cash and four phones is N579,000 only.

I spent about two hours interviewing Alabi about the veracity of the charges brought by the police. Speaking objectively, we all left Kirikiri with a strong conviction that this gentleman is just another victim of Nigeria’s criminal justice system.

The last point that we want to state on the record is that Alabi is a Minor. He is less than 18 years.

Currently, Alabi has appeared before the Magistrate on three occasions.

The court remanded him along with the four strange individuals who are all adults at the custodial centre pending Legal Advice by the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).

We shall provide additional information and the available legal options subsequently. Suffice it to say that we will do all that is legally permissible to secure Alabi’s freedom.

Thank you for your kind attention.

Inibehe Effiong.

I saw a friend shared this happening🤦🏼‍♀️ and decided to share with y'all 👇🏾👇🏾

DUMPED TWO DAYS TO MY WEDDING

Just as I was just about to leave the market, i stepped on a banana peel and was thrown back to onions and cabbages😂😂......A little haul of my life as i clear the 2024 hard drives.

(long post, get yourself a cup of tea, herbal not verbal🤗)

I met a beautiful lady in a fellowship and we dated enough to take it to the next level. We took a thorough Premarital Counseling Classes for 12 weeks according to our church requirements and we graduated.

Did a beautiful proposal and I got a Yes! if you follow my socials you might have come across the video that was later pulled down.
We took it to another level of parents and dowry payments and we successfully went through it.
Planned for a wedding dated 5th October 2024. Went through all the legal and church requirements. I moved from a man cave to a comfortable family house....Paid all the vendors, the venue and the outfits. A week to the wedding a beautiful bridal shower was thrown by her friends.
My mother gathered all her friends and the villagers, hired a school bus to come witness her last born getting himself a wife. (she was very happy)

All was set for the day but 3 days to the wedding, her phone calls went unanswered (there was no fight no argument whatsoever)
I involved our best couple and their calls went unanswered too. The next day she called for a meeting through the best couple and dropped a bombshell "I want to cancel the wedding"
My heart dropped in the stomach and my saliva dried up. I tried water but the words in my head became ice. We went for hours looking for any reason to have caused that and her final answer was "I Don't Love Him Anymore and I'm Not Ready To Get Married"...good enough!

As hard it would have been I accepted and the announcement was released that the wedding has been indefinitely called off.

My phone has never received many calls like that week, the parking was flooding with friends and family coming over to check up on me.

The faithfulness of God when He says he'll never leave us nor forsake us😭 . The peace that surpasses all human understanding..And it's in that time I realized that my life is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3:- that anything to harm me would first go through Christ then God to get me which is impossible!
I'm well covered.

The beauty of belonging to a local church family RATC-Reconciliation at the cross The Hub Of Love that ministers love to a hurting world embraced me with so much love and shielded me from the enemy that prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 😭
My spiritual parents,Rev Benjamin Kasankya and Rev Ndanu Mukisa Kasankya told me, "we love you Danson, you are our son, we'll hold and walk with you through this. God loves you so much and His purpose in your life is still great😭😭
And they've kept their word till this very day 💞

Mum Dr. Sarah K music embrace🥹would call and still calls me for hours to know how I'm doing besides her busy schedule😭. (not to mention she was to lead worship in my wedding)
My best couple Pattie Mwangi and Augustine Ninhoo , you guys are exceptional. You guys gave your sweat and blood to make sure everything was successful. Pattie you took all the bullets😭 (God will reward and heal all the wounds)
Willie Our Daily Devotions took me for drives to get me distracted and still do numerous calls to check up on me. I owe you guys. (given another chance I'd choose you💝)

My therapist who's making sure that this leaves me a better and not a bitter person. And to everyone who called, texted, sent a motivational video, sermon and scriptures. May God send you a helper in any time of need.

And on the fateful wedding day 💁
My siblings threw a private party to celebrate with me, friends and family. We dressed up the wedding legalia. Ate all the food and the cake😂😂 and made merry till my eyes couldn't stay open anymore😴💤

Dj cuppy dedicate her life to God
Repost
This summer, I made THE best decision of my life— to fully dedicate my life to God. Baptism isn’t just a ceremony; it’s a transformation. I am a new creation, reborn in His grace 🕊️✝️

The way to live us actually to die…

Ofcourse I am still DJ Cuppy, but now, every beat, every moment, has a deeper meaning. I see life in a new, brighter light. At 31, I finally understand what it really means to live a purpose driven life. Each day, I’m learning to live with intention, guided by something bigger than myself. Thank You, Father, for Your Salvation 🤍🛐
