There must be a protocol that restricts and forbids @PoliceNG officers from mounting road blocks on the highways. We have spent over two decades if not more paying lip service to this & many lives have been lost due to this primitive approach to security engagement. #EndImpunity
We can have highway patrols and not highway robbers in @PoliceNG uniforms mounting roadblocks and demanding ransom from road users unduly. We should learn from disasters past and present of innocent lives (Police & citizens) cum goods worth millions avoidably lost to this. 🚨
Things like this must NEVER be allowed to happen again in any civilization. How many lives will have to be lost before we realize that it could be us or our loved ones? When will @PoliceNG stop acting with impunity? *Actual event date still being verified- but roadblocks still on
Police shouldn’t be mentioned in any sane clime as the main cause of deaths just because they have adopted a culture of impunity enough to rob citizens for money without a care in the world. Just look at this mess & tell me why we should allow this madness continue. #RiseAsOne
This MUST never be our state of play. Anything goes ideal MUST never be normalized. This is totally unacceptable and will not be allowed to stand forthwith. No country in the world runs like this. Not even in war torn regions. These are human lives being wasted unduly. 😞
Most of the casualties here may not have a voice. The police officers can’t protest. The people won’t even know where to begin to report. Is it to the same police that caused the death of many? Others will only be thankful they survived to live another day. This is pure evil!
May the souls of the departed Rest In Peace and I hope we will learn from this disaster regardless of when, where and why it happened. This is unacceptable and abhorrent. #EndImpunity #ReformPoliceNG
