EDO: GOVT THUGS AGAIN ATTACK EDOSCO

EDO STATE GOVERNMENT THUGS ATTACK EDOCSO AGAIN ON THE PRIVATISED SPECIALIST HOSPITAL

By: Osaze Edigin

...EDOCSO holds Press Conference today ....guns and ammunitions loaded in the vehicle for possible killing of protesters ...Rave TV camera stolen by thugs ...phone and personal belongings of protesters stolen with bodily injuries True to our expectations, Edo state government sent its uniformed thugs and political urchins once again to attack and unleash mayhem on the h protest of Edo Civil Society Organisations today. The thugs pouncing on them and brandishing all manner of different dangerous weapons. The women and physically challenged persons among the protesters were not spared. Phones and personal belongings were stolen just as the camera of a news reporter with Rave TV, Mr. Jimoh Ogirima, was taken away violently. The vehicle used by the thugs to barricade the peaceful protesters in procession was loaded with assorted guns and ammunitions they intended to use if not for the intervention of some military personnel that came to the rescue. It should be of note this is the third time the state government is sending its thugs to attack members of EDOCSO who have been demanding the cancellation of the privatised Specialist Hospital that the poor masses can no longer access. EDOCSO in its General Assembly held a Press Conference today to brief Edo people of the current privatisation spree of public institutions to certain individuals and corporate entities without the knowledge of same people that elected the current government. The truth still remains that Edo people deserve to know what the government have done with their Specialist Hospital and other public institutions irrespective of how hard the government tries to suppress our agitations. Since Governor Obaseki is set to kill the citizens by mobilizing thugs with guns on peaceful protesters, the agitation has just started. WE SHALL CONTINUALLY DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY FROM GOVERNMENT. Leftist Osazee Edigin Public Relations Officer Edo Civil Society Organisations

Much Ado About Uniben gate killings .... Nemesis? or...?

Much Ado About Uniben gate killings .... Nemesis? or...? By: Oriaifoh Godwins. On Sunday 10th May 2026, the people of Edo State, and indeed Nigerians and the world at large, received with rude shock the barbaric murder of a student called Alex Omoijiate, a University of Benin student who was said to have just finished writing his exams. When I saw the lifeless bullet riddled body of the guy, sitting behind the steering of the Mercedes GLK vehicle, the first thing that came to my mind is: "What a wicked world !". How can anybody do this to a fellow human? Hours later, the social media was awash with how quiet and easy going, the guy was, some persons expressed same sentiment that I expressed, the first time I saw the video, but the following day, stories behind the killings began to emerge. I have been telling those that care to listen, that; "every action definitely has an equal and opposite reaction", but many think it's just a 'stray talk'; however, t...
