Published

Women from Oke Ere in Yagba West Local Government Area of Kogi State took to the streets on Wednesday in a passionate protest against the ongoing wave of insecurity plaguing their community.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The demonstrators, many of them elderly, voiced their anguish over repeated kidnappings and attacks by marching through the town wrapped in traditional garments, singing mournful songs and pleading for immediate intervention from the government and security agencies.

Footage from the demonstration captured emotional scenes, with women openly weeping in frustration over months of unchecked violence, abductions, and killings.

Their outrage intensified following revelations from a self-proclaimed repentant kidnapper, who reportedly admitted to being part of a criminal syndicate terrorizing the region. The man, whose name has not been disclosed, claimed he withdrew from the gang due to fear for his life and accused a fellow community member of being part of the group.

Despite these claims, the accused individual denied the allegations and was later released — a decision that further angered the protesters, who criticized the slow and ineffective response from local authorities and traditional leaders.

The protesting women are calling on the Kogi State Government, security forces, and traditional rulers to take swift and decisive action to end the insecurity and protect their community from further harm.

Despite possessing what he considers the superior candidate, Baba-Ahmed explained why the party is actively championing a broader political alliance:

  • Consensus Over Ego: The PRP chairman emphasized that the party’s push for a mega-coalition is driven by consensus and constitutional processes rather than forcing Duke’s candidacy through on profile strength alone.
