My people, Ekpoma don enter serious gbege o! As I dey yarn to una, the Commissioner of Police for Edo State, Monday Agbonika, don talk say dem go restructure Ekpoma Division due to the matter wey dey happen for the area. Na serious palaver wey dey potopoto since Satuday, when residents wey dey vex for the rising insecurity, come block road to show how dem dey feel.
Chai! Na so the gist carry us go, as dem start to protest about kidnappers wey don turn the place to their playground, including the recent case wey involve one youth wey dem don kill on top this matter. Na true wah wey dey happen for Ekpoma now. When the protest start, e suppose be normal protest, but e quickly turn to big wahala when some hoodlums enter the scene and begin scatter, even attack traders for livestock market. Na there dem begin dey kill goats and dey beat cows, video wey don go viral wey dey show all the koko.
The CP don talk say dem don appoint CSP Tomofe Nwabueze as the new DPO wey go dey handle matters for Ekpoma, sharp sharp. Dem need serious hand wey go fit manage the situation well because e don clear say level don change. E don turn to matter wey reach the governor, Okpebholo, wey don condemn the attack wey happen on top the Onojie palace wey na Zaiki Anthony Abumere II dey rule.
But wait o, the wahala no finish there! One of the police officers for Ekpoma come drop one comment wey dey cause serious uproar online. This officer talk say dem go bring one Hausa police officer wey no go hear word come replace am, after he go leave. Na so the whole social media don dey roast am for that statement. People dey call am insensitive and ethnic profiling, saying wetin he talk no make sense at all.
One guy for Twitter (@Mr_Gerrie01) don open mouth talk say this kind talk na wetin go only make matter worse. Other people join am talk say make dem abeg use better words. We all know say currently people dey fear for their life because of kidnapping, and wetin this DPO talk no help at all. Na time to find solution we dey talk about, no be time to dey threaten people with ethnicity matter.
Another user (@Iamowolabi01) don tell am say make he focus on how to protect the people wey he suppose dey serve, instead of adding to the fear wey dey already dey disturb their mind. The matter don reach another level wey citizens dey ask for better security, and the government need to act fast before di koko turn worse. Ekpoma deserve peace, and everyone dey hope say dem go fit arrange everything quick quick!
