SHOCK IN DEMSA: Council Chairman Accused of Ordering Blogger’s Arrest



Reports reaching OrionTimes from Demsa, Adamawa State, indicate that Innocent Godiya, the administrator of the popular Facebook page Adamawa Gist, has been arrested under controversial circumstances.




According to sources, the arrest did not follow due legal process and is being described by many as an abduction allegedly ordered by the Demsa Local Government Chairman.


Report gathered indicted that Godiya was hurriedly taken before a court and subsequently remanded in prison without legal representation, raising questions about the integrity of the process.


The development has sparked outrage among residents, activists, and members of the online community, who argue that this is not only an assault on one individual but a dangerous precedent that threatens justice, fairness, and press freedom in Adamawa State.


Prominent media influencers and bloggers across the state have condemned the action, warning that silencing dissent through intimidation is a slippery slope towards authoritarianism.


At the time of filing this report, details remain sketchy. However, the incident has already ignited widespread conversations both online and offline, with growing calls for transparency, accountability, and the immediate release of Innocent Godiya.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading.

"Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
