No be small matter wey dey happen for Ekpoma, my people! Edo State Government don come out to clear air, dey talk sey wetin everybody dey call protest, na real riot wey foreign people dey sponsor! E be like say we get some wahala wey get foreign connections, as dem talk sey one Nigerian wey dey for Russia dey coordinate the whole thing.
Patrick Ebojele, wey be Chief Press Secretary to Governor Monday Okpebholo, don drop statement wey go shake ground. Dem no just dey make noise for Ekpoma, but na serious gbege wey dem fit trace back to people wey dey abroad. E be like say dem send money come give some people for ground to cause wahala wey fit shake Edo. Security agencies don dey on top matter, dem don identify some of the masterminds wey involved.
But make I yarn una, this na no be case of students from Ambrose Alli University. Government don clear sey all these arrests wey dem dey talk about no get anything to do with the university, wey dey close as we speak! The students don already pack their load long before dis gbege start. So, it no make sense to involve dem.
Those wey dem arrest na different group wey dem catch as dem dey plan to go vandalise property. Many of dem dey show for video wey dey go round, dey commit arson and destruction. E get clear evidence wey security fit use to trace dem. Government don talk am clear: dem no be peaceful protesters! Na rioters and miscreants wey dem be.
As for that viral video wey dey circulate, wey show kidnapping for Ekpoma? Na big fat lie, wey dem don label as serious misrepresentation. E just dey spread fear among people, and we no go allow that one slide. Dem don also talk sey e get some opposition elements wey dey try use this wahala to foul the image of the Edo State Government. Na only God fit help us deal with dis kind people.
Government don assure us sey dem dey work with security agencies to restore peace everywhere. Dem talk sey peaceful protest na everybody right, but e no go work if dem come carry fight, looting, or destruction enter the matter. Na serious issue, my people! Abeg, make we use our sense, no follow false videos or unverified gist. Ekpoma don dey calm down small by small, so make we carry our waka dey go normal again.
