gluv01: They hide behind masks and heavy clothing to commit atrocities...Shop lifting, flogging innocent citizens, rapes etc.
But why subject them to lying down publicly on the road instead of the station or cell?

Because they commit their atrocities publicly too.

Chie is a pity,how can this men insult them like this.The suppose to take them to their stations b4 penalizing them.But if I make ask wat evidence did those task force has to give to show that the are task force.Rather is bc cause the can intimidate them.

This is anti-tradition. No to foreign religions.

Pagan Naija, Okija Juju over to you

xo funny, but i think they are ghosts, xo y is ghost being arrested, xo funny, ara orun indeed

bknight: This task-force will be needed around yaba, island axis of lagos. They jst dress up without occasion harassing passers-by, injecting fear as people (esp. women) run wildly and cause drama. They even beg for money.

I respect masquerades when there's a festival of some sort. Its fun to watch culture on display but yes, these disgraceful ones I talked abt here should be arrested.

dem plenty for yaba area...i remember when one wanted to flog me, omoh i make sure i avoid that long thin stick

Hungry hoodlum in a masquerade's costume.

LOL!
This is what I call "Fear dey fear fear".

ABOMINATION! In olden days myth anyone who tries that will be beaten overnight by spirits

ARA-AYE FIYA JE ARAORUN, WHERE DEN DROP DERE CHARM.

And I thought the egungun (masqeurade) is part of our cultural heritage that can be leveraged upon to draw international tourists to something that is PARTICULAR about us and DIFFERENT from other people.
Do we not deserve to respect such heritage?
And find ways to reform and correct the abnormal issues?

the fight between army and police officer in badagry last year was exactly one year after the badagry police station dpo detained an egungun in cell and the DPO was killed by the army on dat day after one year

LMAO!! this is sacrilege!! the task force should bring 3 goats and 7 tubers of yam to appease the gods.

K,k:
Funny how our old ways are no more respected.

Old and illegal ways.

Egungun toh f**k up... Thought they used to say they were next to gods

They are causing evil. 2 months ago, they chased a company that was working on my street at Ihiala LGA. The cultprints were arrested and fined. They only succeeded in slowing the work.
