Death Of Child: Okpebholo Orders Indefinite Suspension Of PSRT Operations In Edo by State001(op): 4:17pm On Mar 14, 2025
The Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo has ordered the indefinite suspension of operations of the Public Safety Response Team (PSRT) headed by Mr. Kelly Okungbowa, alias Ebo Stone, in the state.

In a statement on Friday issued by the Secretary to the State Government, Umar Musa Ikhilor, Esq., he said the decision is occasioned by several complaints received by the State Government on allegations of extortion, harassment and unruly behaviour by members of the Team.


“The Government remains committed to upholding law and order and will not tolerate any deviation from the original purpose for which the Team was set up, which is to help maintain public order, assist in protecting public infrastructure and curb illegal activities like street trading and illegal parking in our communities,” he said.

“A thorough review of the Team’s structure and operations, particularly recruitment processes and training of its personnel will be conducted to ensure that all government-sanctioned activities in the State reflect the highest standard of professionalism, fairness, orderliness and respect for human dignity,” the SSG added.

The suspension of the PSRT operations in Edo came barely 48 hours after a fatal motor accident on Wednesday at the Ring Road area of Benin involving a commercial bus ramming into some pedestrian, ostensibly to evade arrest by members of the PSRT, which led to the death of a two-year-old child.

Sorry to divert attention. People like Helinues yarimo beefraud Legendhero celebrated when Deborah was murderd and burnt to ashes. None of those bastard that killed her faced the law. They're walking freely till this day until karma do the needful.
This same terrorists I mentioned above are asking how are Christians been persecuted. Since 2015 till now, fulani terrorists herdsmen and land grabbers in conjunction with Yoruba muslims terrorists have been making sure no christian president emerges to tackle this menace. They're also killing their fellow Yoruba Christians in SW too. Their plan is to turn Nigeria too all Muslim country. But it will never work. Never!!!!

So there were complaints about extortion, harassment,etc and the State government kept quiet only to react when live is lost.

Is this not medicine after death?
