Killings: Women Protest Naked In Delta by Mufasa1805(m): 8:48am On Jul 19, 2015 |
Women and youths in Orhuwhorun
community, Udu Local Government
Area of Delta State, on Wednesday
protested naked against what they
described as unexplained killings and
rape cases in the community.
Some of the protesters told our
correspondent that the development
was a traditional practice aimed at
restoring peace to the community.
SUNDAY PUNCH learnt that in the last
three weeks, the community had
been in the throes of bizarre killings
of youths, raping of teenage girls
and stealing in farmlands
perpetrated by unknown persons.
The situation led to the naked
protest by the women and youths.
The protest was masterminded by a
group.
They danced through Akoto,
Ekerejegbe, Ekereabe, Ekerevie and
Bughare Quarters in the community,
chanting traditional songs and
waving green leaves signifying the
cleansing of the land.
The Public Relations Officer of the
Ovie in council of the community, Mr.
Tataunu Akporhobor, decried the
increase in criminal activities in the
community.
He expressed confidence that the
naked protest would restore peace to
the community.
Apkorhobor described the protest as
a ‘cleansing rite,’ adding that both
Christians and non-Christians
partook in the exercise.
In a related development, there was
a crisis between the youth of
Orhuwhorun and the township youths
leading to the amputation of the left
arm of one Stanley Okobiebie, while
many allegedly sustained injuries.
Eyewitnesses told our correspondent
that trouble started when the
township youths refused to allow
Orhuwhorun youths to participate in
the carrying of concrete blocks to a
construction site.
It was gathered that both groups
had been at loggerheads before the
incident over the sharing of jobs
assigned to them by the contractors
working with the oil companies in
the area.
The spokesperson for the police
command in the state, DSP Celestine
Kalu, said the command had deployed
more troops to the community to
maintain law and order.
He added that 16 persons arrested in
connection with the crisis in the
community were currently being
interrogated. Source: http://www.punchng.com/news/killings-women-protest-naked-in-delta/ |
