OK o

We the good people of rivers state heartily welcome the army in rivers state because the rivers state right now is a crime scene. Not a single day passes by without hearing gunshots from God knows where, with the high level of crime in rivers state including kidnapping and cultism the average life expectancy of rivers residents is 45yrs. Anyone that opposes the presence of soldiers in this state is a terrorist

The slayer of Boko Haram and Igbos.

but you don't want to join so they don't post you to be among the team to find tomopolo or shekau abi?

Good work Buhari administration

Please be careful inviting the army to do police job. if the police have failed, then we should restructure the entire force rather than inviting the army. these politicians are dumb.
