Philip Shaibu, deputy governor of Edo, says at least three
ladies were raped after suspected hoodlums attacked #EndSARS protesters in the
state.
The #EndSARS 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.
“It’s quite unfortunate that the #EndSARS protests today
went violent and the correctional service at Sapele road and Oko prison were
invaded. There were jail break in both sides”, he said.
“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.”
The government 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.
#EndSARS protesters have been attacked in different parts of
the country.
