Unfortunately, the matter has been "dragging" since they were handed over to Rivers State Police...
The latest twist is that the Kind of Ogu, one of the Kalabari towns, King Nicholas Biobele, is now claiming that his town got wind of an alleged plot by a neighbouring community to invade their town. He said the boys (
who are not policemen), were then sent to go in search of the other community's arms and retrieve same.
He said those arrested were community vigilante, who recovered the arms that would have been used by one of their neighbouring communities to attack his community.
So, youths are now being sent into another community to search for arms, and the community will be asleep in the process, and the youths will recover the same arms and take them back to their own town?
How ridiculous!
