Osun State police commissioner should be removed from that seat. He’s incapable to secure Osun State. We demand his removal.

Hnnmm

Police always careless with arms when before civilians

On a protest to mourn the death of one, another was shot by same killers. Nobody is answerable, our leaders are not concerned.. we have given up our voice for peace..

For how long Nigerians..... how many more until we say enough.

Vote right, Vote Labour, Vote Peter Obi...

Nigerian Police and accidental discharge are like 5 & 6.

We all should know by now that protesting in nigerian soil in buhari's govenment is a crime, and looting the cotntry dry is a political goal.

The right leader takes responsibilities.. he appoints and dismisses. Am sure your narrative would have been different if it was your brother being mourned.. the struggle is for our greater good, a better society, a better nation.

Vote right, vote Labour, vote peter Obi...

Adeleke will secure Osun for all of us. Vote Ademola Adeleke

It’s much in Osun State. The IGP should remove the Police commissioner in Osun State. Enough of oppression and harassment by the police in Osun State.
