The crime rate in Edo State is getting out of hand, hope Comrade Governor will step up more and nip it in the bud asap.

Many Nigerian men think that women are rags to be molested, used and killed at will starting from early childhood.

Anyways, another day in the hell hole called Nigeria.

Who still believes PM News?
