The busy bees and their laughable attempt at a smear campaign against the SIU Commander

This has to be one of the weakest and most desperate mudslinging attempts in recent memory. It is clear that some elements, running out of options, are now grasping at straws in their bid to remove CSP Taiwo Oyewale—Commander of the Special Investigation Unit (SIU). The level of desperation is not only transparent but also pitiful.

If these faceless little busy bees had any real conviction in their propaganda, they would have had the nerve to show their faces instead of hiding behind a keyboard to throw around baseless, laughable, and downright dumb accusations. But that’s the thing about cowards—they always operate in the shadows, whispering lies, hoping something will stick.

Before I proceed, it is important to state, for the record, that CSP Taiwo Oyewale, LLB, BL, LLM (in view), is not just another officer in the Nigeria Police Force—she is an intellectual and professional powerhouse whose qualifications and track record speak for themselves. She graduated with a Diploma in Law and was the Best Graduating Student in her class at Baze University, Abuja.

Beyond that, she holds two advanced diplomas—one in Security Operations and Management and another in Law Enforcement Administration. She also holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Language Arts.

In terms of practical experience, she has served in some of the most critical and intelligence-driven units of the Nigeria Police Force, including: Special Fraud Unit, Special Criminal Investigation Department, Lagos, Force Intelligence, Abuja, FCID, Monitoring Unit, Force Headquarters, Abuja.

By every stretch of the imagination, CSP Taiwo Oyewale is far beyond the league of these busy little bees. And that is precisely the problem—they simply cannot deal with it. It burns them to no end that a woman with such an impeccable record, sharp intellect, and unshakable integrity is leading the charge against their criminal associates. They have thrown everything at her—lies, smear campaigns, and media manipulation—yet she remains unshaken. And that, dear busy bees, is your real pain.

At this point, it is crucial for the public to understand that the plot to remove the Commander from SIU began the very first week she assumed office. Their initial desperate attempt was to accuse her of writing, editing, and printing the CV of her boss—a laughable claim that fell flat on its face. When that failed spectacularly, they shifted gears, fabricating baseless lies and pushing them into the media, hoping something would stick.

The claim that the SIU Commander and Jesam Michael are lovers is both cheap and tasteless. And what do they have to back up this wild accusation? A manipulated audio recording being circulated alongside other baseless claims. If there was even a shred of truth to this nonsense, these busy bees would be throwing a victory parade by now. But no, all they have is a weak and desperate attempt at blackmail, proving, once again, that the only people trying to cover anything up are the ones screaming the loudest.

This pathetic and recycled lie about the Commander demanding lands, properties, and dollars has been debunked so many times that it now belongs in the archives of beer-parlor gossip and market-square chatter. Yet, the little busy bees keep regurgitating it, hoping that if they repeat it enough times, it will magically become true. The real sting in their pain is the fact that, despite all their scheming, despite all their conspiracies, they have failed—miserably—to frame the Commander. That’s what’s eating them up. That’s why they are running around in circles, throwing baseless accusations like confetti at a cheap carnival. But here’s the bitter truth for them: no matter how hard they try, no matter how desperately they fabricate stories, they will never be able to rewrite reality. Facts don’t bow to fiction.

Another ridiculous lie being peddled is that the Commander “boasts of being untouchable.” Just pause for a second and let that sink in. Is this really the best they could come up with? It sounds like something out of a badly written soap opera. These busy bees need to fire their scriptwriters—this is embarrassing.

Let’s get something straight: before CSP Taiwo Oyewale took over, the SIU was a unit marred by corruption and negative press. There are multiple news reports, articles, and TV interviews where its immediate past leadership was accused of using the SIU as a safe haven for criminals. These reports are all available for those who care to do a simple Google search. What we are seeing now is nothing more than an attempt to bury the past and silence a commander who refuses to play along with the rot. And if these little busy bees thought that leaking a weak, chopped-up voice recording would stop the Commander from going after Jesam Michael, they have another thing coming.

Despite the desperate claims that she was living in Jesam Michael’s house, CSP Taiwo Oyewale has continued to discharge her duties with professionalism and integrity. Here’s a fact for those struggling with basic comprehension: she was a tenant in one of his properties—paying rent like any other law-abiding citizen. The moment she realized the kind of character she was dealing with, she took the necessary steps and moved out. Simple. Can the same be said for the little busy bees, who are deeply entangled with this character and most likely being blackmailed by him? The truth has a way of revealing itself, and these people will soon have nowhere to hide.

Even after all these failed stunts, they seized upon the operation conducted at Jesam Michael’s house—an operation that only happened after he repeatedly ignored invitations to respond to damning allegations against him from the public. They saw this as their golden opportunity to twist the narrative, but once again, they underestimated the resilience of both the truth and the Commander.

It is beyond laughable that these bees think they can use this poorly executed blackmail attempt to stall or derail the SIU’s investigation into Jesam Michael. Their desperation is now on full display. At this rate, why aren’t they out on the streets carrying placards in support of their “Lion’s Tiger”—whatever that means? If Jesam Michael is innocent, let him prove it. Why was he trying to flee the country before he was caught at the airport? He has been dared multiple times to bring out his evidence. And what has he done? He has produced manipulated chat messages, which can be forged by anyone with basic tech skills, and an edited voice recording that conveniently leaves out key parts of the conversation. Pathetic. This isn’t even a sophisticated attempt at deception; it’s just sloppy and embarrassing. It’s a reflection of the collective IQs of the busy little bees.

These clowns claim that under ACP Asuquo, there was “no single case of corruption.” Really? The same Jesam Michael who has been accused of using the SIU to suppress victims was operating under that administration. These allegations are public knowledge, documented in multiple reports. But here we are, watching a desperate PR campaign try to rewrite history with cheap lies. It won’t work.

And now, the bees are throwing out a new, laughable accusation—that CSP Taiwo Oyewale is having an affair with the Inspector General of Police. Laughing out loud for real. This is the best they could come up with again? They’re not only bad at executing smear campaigns, but they’re also terrible at gossip. What exactly are they good at? Spreading falsehoods like third-rate propagandists?

Then there’s the shameless and baseless claim that she is the one “writing for the IGP.” Do these people even hear themselves? It is a well-known fact in professional and academic circles that subordinates are often tasked with research duties by their superiors. This is a normal practice in any structured organization. If the SIU Commander was entrusted with research assignments, it is a testament to her competence and professionalism. The real question is, who among these little busy bees has ever been given a research assignment by anyone in authority? They should be embarrassed, not making noise about things they don’t understand.

These faceless cowards continue to spew garbage they can’t substantiate. If there was an auction, list the bidders. If there was corruption, provide evidence. Instead, all they can do is exhibit their low IQs with vague, baseless statements.

These desperate elements have repeatedly encouraged complainants to take to social media to peddle falsehoods, all in a calculated effort to bully and embarrass the Commander into submission. Their goal? To manipulate ongoing investigations by creating a media circus around cases she was handling.

CSP Taiwo Oyewale is doing the work necessary to restore faith in the SIU. The unit was in shambles before she took over, and that’s a fact. The way she is facing stiff resistance from criminal elements and their allies only proves that she is on the right track and a light that can’t be extinguished.

And let this be on record: the Commander will not be intimidated. She will continue to carry out her duties with the highest level of professionalism, despite the obvious resistance from these desperate little busy bees who lack the courage to put their real names on their weak, low-grade publications.

So to the faceless cowards behind this nonsense: reveal yourselves, if you dare. The light is shining brighter now, and your days of hiding in the dark are numbered.
