Happening now, pandemonium in Eha-Alumona, Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State following an attack on the Umabor Police Station by angry youths.



According to DailyPost reports, the youths also blocked the ever busy Enugu-Makurdi Expressway yesterday, crippling vehicular movement.

A source said that trouble started when a team of policemen stormed a viewing centre and arrested some residents, a development that angered the youths. According to the community source, “what happened yesterday was accumulation of anger. The police have been in the habit of making indiscriminate arrest in the Eha Community.

“Each time they come, they would pick so many young men and force them to pay N5,000 for bail; if you refuse to pay, they will detain you for those. That’s what they repeated Tuesday night.”

He further disclosed that on getting to the Police Station, the angry youths demanded immediate release of their brothers, a request turned down by the police.

It was learnt that at that point, the youths went wild and started vandalizing property; even as they reportedly engaged the police in sporadic shootings.

However, report gathered that though no life was lost in the sporadic shootings which lasted for several hours, police vehicles, including a hilux van and some parts of the building were destroyed.

Frantic efforts made to obtain reaction from the police failed as the Enugu Police Spokesman did not pick several calls put across to him.

Nigeria a failed state

.

Mmmm

Symbol of a failed state. Police needs good training.

Buhari is so concerned with fighting corruption yet his radar elude the police force which is the headquarters of corruption in the country.

Check very well, the DPO will be from any other State but not the from Enugu. He might not even be from the South East.

Nigeria is jinxed.

Where I the President, every police officer must serve in their villages and communities.

If they aid armed robbers, na for their head.
If they extort their people, na for their head.

Now, they will continue to oppress the people until there is a revolt.

Who said, we dont need Biafra??
