Calabar in the news for the wrong reasons. Since the short devil became governor, everything went from bad to worse.

High level of unemployment among the youths, as they now depend on Bet9ja for income. No freedom of movement at night. It's either ndito inor will harass you or snatch your phone at "matchete point." Any attempt to struggle and you're being given the "short sleeve" treatment. No where is safe. In fact, the whole country is a mess.

rip to the dead

The matter should be thoroughly investigated and those security operatives responsible for his death be prosecuted.

I wish his family strength to bear the loss.

Two wrongs don't make a right. They should have first buried/deposited the corpse in the morgue before storming the governor's office.

No ooo

That is wrong.. So wrong

Rip to the dead

No respect for the dead again.. They should have brought just empty casket, that would have been better.

Rip to the dead.

Another promising life lost. What a country

PDP and death

But why did he run? It is not the task force's fault. Why run if he wasn't guilty?!

The reasons they were allowed to near the Gov office was because they have the
corpse and election is around the corner.
Otherwise more corpses would've been on the scene
