Shey na ESN be this oo abi? People have to know tensions are very high this period. Many People are nursing various degree of anger and vengeance against law enforcement agencies especially police and the army partly due to their reign of impunity over the years which reached a crescendo when they killed youths at Lekki.

Buhari has failed and the lives of law enforcement now mean nothing! A whole CSP killed but do I care? No! Those CSPs are at the very top of the crimes happening in the police force!
