Except I now have a faulty eyes, below are Dane guns and normal riffle which I believe can't use those chain bullets, those guys shown must be prisoner gotten from the prison and with those guns placed in their front, I don't trust everything I see in the media, some are medial trail. Naija which way

We only see pictures of what security operatives seized from such murderers but nobody knows how the story later ends...

I bet, most of them will be release back into the society to continue their menace but I ask in my writing why pose pictures of guns when you don't bother to arrest the source of which they get these guns. Saboteurs amongst the security agencies are playing a vital role on this spot.

Lest and forget is it necessary to always show Nigerians they are working by posting pics online. If 'yes!' Then they should show us till end.

this should tell you that the police are just errand boys. the fulanis have been masacaring the tivs for ages, how many of them have the police paraded? as u rightly pointed out, u think the tivs have these kinds of weapons and no single fulani have been killed. the police should free these innocent guys jare.
