In a heart-wrenching incident early this morning, a newly appointed Divisional Police Officer (DPO) and several officers lost their lives in an ambush while executing a kidnap rescue mission near Agbarho Rail Station in Delta State. Another DPO, CSP Paul, is currently fighting for his life in a hospital.

According to Delta Human Rights Activist, Comrade Israel Joe, who shared the news on Facebook, this operation turned deadly around 1:00 am. The new DPO of Agbarho had just resumed his duties two days prior, making the loss even more devastating for the Delta State Command of the Nigeria Police Force.

Comrade Joe expressed his sorrow, stating, “This loss is heartbreaking. Just yesterday, I spoke with the DPO about maintaining the integrity of his officers. They bravely faced the criminals, and now, we must honor their sacrifice.”

He extended heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of the fallen officers, emphasizing, “None of these criminals should be spared.”

As of now, attempts to reach the Delta State Police Public Relations Officer for comments have been unsuccessful.

Let’s keep the families of these brave officers in our thoughts during this difficult time. 🕊️

A 27-year-old woman identified as Fatima Dzuma has been arrested for k!lling her 25-year-old husband, Baba Aliyu, in Lafiyagi Dzwafu village in Katcha Local Government Area of Niger State.

Dzuma was said to have married Baba three years ago as his second wife after divorcing her first husband, but she had not given birth to Baba, while Baba’s first wife had just given birth, and preparations were underway for the naming ceremony.

Sources told The Nation that the deceased and the suspect usually had misunderstandings, and even the night before Dzuma killed Baba, they had a fight in which Baba beat Dzuma.

Confessing to the crime, Dzuma narrated that there had been an altercation between them that night, and she was b3aten by her husband, who left the house after the assault.

“When he came back, he went to bed. I used a rope to tie his neck, and he could not struggle. I hit him with a pestle three times, twice on his head and once on his hand. I took advantage of his sleeping because his sleep is always deep,” she said.

“After I k!lled him, I put him inside a mat, threw him over the fence and dragged him to the bush in the backyard before coming back to wash the blood and excreta that came out of his body when I k!lled him.”

When asked why she ki!led him, she said they had a misunderstanding where she told him that she did not love him anymore, and he b3at her up.

When the family of Baba was looking for him, she claimed she had not seen him but confessed to the crime three days after she k!lled h!m.

  • Passengers on a flight to Los Angeles were treated to a once-in-a-lifetime journey that seemed to travel back in time
  • Their jetliner departed from Hong Kong on January 1, 2025, and crossed the International Date Line after six hours, reversing the calendar by a day
  • Cathay Pacific Flight 880 touched down at LAX on December 31, 2024, at about 8:30 pm, a day before their departure date

In a journey that appeared to defy the laws of time, Cathay Pacific Flight 880 departed from Hong Kong on January 1, 2025 and landed at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on New Year’s Eve 2024.

ABC News reports that the flight took off from Hong Kong International Airport just after midnight on January 1, 2025.

How Cathay Pacific Flight 880 travelled back in time

Traversing the vast Pacific Ocean, the jetliner crossed the International Date Line about halfway through its 12-hour journey.

The crossing reversed the calendar by a day, allowing the plane to arrive in Los Angeles on December 31, 2024.

The flight touched down at LAX shortly before 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, approximately 20 minutes ahead of schedule.

Passengers onboard effectively celebrated New Year’s Day twice, a rare temporal experience made possible by the interplay of time zones and international aviation.

Passengers love trans-Pacific flights to travel “back in time”

Passengers arriving at LAX were greeted with the festive hustle of New Year’s Eve celebrations, providing a unique end to their long-haul flight.

New York Post adds that this time-bending phenomenon is a regular occurrence for eastbound transpacific flights.

Over the years, passengers have been known to book eastbound trans-Pacific flights across New Year’s Eve to experience the holiday twice.

It highlights the fascinating quirks of global timekeeping, where a combination of speed, distance, and the International Date Line can seemingly transport passengers “back in time.”

December was dark month for airline industry

The drama-free Cathay Pacific flight gives a new lease of life to an airline industry that had a difficult ending in 2024.

In one of the worst airline disasters in recent times, nearly all 181 onboard Jeju Air Flight 7C 2216 died after it crashed at Muan International Airport in South Korea.

Only two crew members miraculously survived and were rescued from the Boeing 737-800’s tail section.
