End SARS: Three protesters raped in Edo
Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, says at least three ladies were raped after suspected hoodlums attacked End SARS protesters in the state.
The End SARS protests which started peacefully across the country have been hijacked in some states.
Speaking when he featured on Politics Today, a Channels Television programme, on Monday, Shaibu said the government would do its best to protect residents.
He said, “It’s quite unfortunate that the End SARS protests today went violent and the correctional service at Sapele road and Oko prison were invaded. There were jail break in both sides.
“Before then, during the weekend, hoodlums took over. Yesterday, three young ladies were raped.
“Some through reckless driving, hit up some persons. A lot of lives are already being lost. For the state government, it is not acceptable.”
IDOMA VOICE recalls that, the state Governor, Godwin Obaseki, imposed a 24-hour curfew after a jailbreak at a correctional centre in Benin, Edo state.
Another prison in Benin was also attacked while inmates were set free.
