Residents of Okitipupa in Ondo State were yesterday
sacked from their homes by desperate military men
on a weird search for a gun lost by one of their
colleagues.
The soldiers, from a barracks near the town, blocked
the highway early in the morning, harassing
commuters and conducting a thorough search of
vehicles. They also ransacked residential places near
the Okitipupa garage.
Their erring colleague was said to have binged heavily
on alcohol on Thursday evening in the midst of some
touts, during which his colleagues on the rampage on
residents and commuters said he was ‘dispossessed’
of the gun.
Relating the abusive acts of the soldiers today, a
witness told our correspondent that the military men
queued up innocent old men, women and youths at
the Okitipupa garage. They were ordered like
common criminals to raise their hands above their
heads and marched to the barracks. It is not known
what treatment the 'arrested' people were further
given at the barracks.
"It's just odd that the soldiers think the old men and
women who don't drink are the ones to be harassed
and arrested over what they are completely innocent
of," one witness commented.
No information has emerged yet whether the military
plans to, or has imposed any disciplinary action on
their erring officer for drinking so excessively in
public as to lose it.
"What irritates more is that the soldiers would
believe at all, that the touts who made away with the
gun would be foolish to hang around with the
weapon they just possessed in the same area. They
are only assaulting innocent people here and it's
odd," one resident remarked.
