Did you grow up in Ajegunle? I know OPC harassed Ijaws in their early days in Lagos. That's what you get when you ask illiterates to handle stuff
Grew up in Ajangbadi....
they killed so many people it was crazy... I’ve seen so many people die painful deaths after pleading for their lives. It’s not something any child has to see but that was my reality growing up.

Man!!! It was rough!!!

Grew up in a ghetto in Lagos where we were oppressed by OPC everyday. There were public lynching and ethnic cleansing conducted by the OPC.

Then we were oppressed by the police. After OPC have had their way and killed whom they pleased, the police would extort us and beat us severely if you dared to oppose

Then there were the thieves that would raid every house in the ghetto. Robbing and raping and killing. Fortunately, we were never attacked by any of those but I saw it so many times that I got desensitized to the deaths and charred bodies that lined up the street everyday.

It wasn’t funny!
