Serious meltdown in Owerri this morning
This boy was shot died by police men this morning for protesting against the demolition of his mother's shop
This little Boy was crushed to death by Gov Okorocha and Nig Police. His crime was "don't destroy my mother's shop" and he was killed.
According to Gov Okorocha on why he is demolishing popular market in Owerri, "I want to build a modern school there...."
Can God forgive Gov Rochas Okorocha for being inhuman to his people?

Shut your trap and don't say what you don't know! The little boy was not fired upon but was hit by a stray bullet, which anyone can be a victim!

Talking about why the market must be demolished! Because lots of criminal activities are perpetrated there aside the usual selling and buying of goods. Douglas Market is known to be home of various forms of bad gangs who rob people in broad day light. My phone was snatched in that market 2 different times at gun point when I was in FUTO. Some of my friends too have been a victim of such crime.

The reason why the protest was hitted must be in connection with the Njamanze family who sees the Market as their ancestral home and with millions they collect as revenue from there. many times the dirty Photos of Douglas market has surfaced online and people will pour abuses on the governor for leaving that side of Imo state in its rotten condition!

No development comes without some people bearing consequences for it. The demolishing of the Market is a welcome development.

Once again! RIP to the Dead...

Stray bullet? Can you explain what you mean by that? What was the bullet doing outside the gun if they weren't shooting at unarmed civilians?

I don't usually comment on nairaland but I actually had to login to comment here so the world will know the truth.

First of all, I want to establish that I have nothing to gain or lose if Ekeukwu Owerri market is relocated or not. What pains me is the temerity with which the government uses the media to lie to us; we've lost our minds in the name of playing politics.

How would someone write this piece, that the market was relocated amid jubilation? Do people lose their lives while jubilating?
How can you relocate a functioning market to an incomplete site?
How can you say the action was a peaceful one, when thugs from a particular part of the state were looting shops to zero level?
How peaceful could it have been when gunshots greeted the people of Owerri from the early hours of today till evening?

I can't even type further.... I feel so bad for all those that lost their loved ones; seeing this news in the internet would be more of emotional torture to them.

It's unfortunate that the government would do all sort of things and get away with it.

In all that happened today, all I'm asking for is a fair report. The people of Owerri are not happy, lives were lost, nobody is jubilating, people were even scared to come out today. I might not be a reporter but I feel the people's pains. I just hope we get it right someday.

Mumu, since you don't think before you type lemme explain some things to you. You said Douglas road is a crime infested area and den of robbers and cultists etc, everyone knows that hence we keep off that area or tend to be careful while moving through that place but now that your governor has forcefully ejected all the criminals and rendered them homeless and jobless do you not think that the crime that was limited to that area alone would spread to other areas in the state??

Douglas Road is an eyesore when it rains in Imo state. So my good people, sentiment apart, you will praise the Almighty God after the work. Remember it's the heart of the town. Pain first, pleasure at last... May God bless the good people of Imo state for their wealth of wisdom.

You saying craps. Generally most Nigerians are very stubborn am dead sure the relocation plans didn't happen over night,why didn't the traders moved their things quietly but no they waited till they were forced out. What's wrong with black men? However killing a little boy was way too gross,what happened if he was just arrested? He has no gun,I just wonder what's wrong with our security forces.

You are very wrong, if you want to talk about crime infested or dirty markets look at the history of Onitsha Main Market, it used to be one of the dirtiest, most crime infested markets in Nigeria but today it's a very different place, it didn't take the forceful demolition og the market and loss of life for the Anambra state government to fix some of the problems in this market that's much much larger the one in Owerri.

Why can't Rocha's government do the same? Why did a little boy have to be shot in the head for trying to protect his mother legitimate source of income?
Re: Rochas Okorocha Storms Demolished Ekeukwu Market With Security Operatives.Photos by manciti: 6:39am On Aug 27, 2017
whenever issue of Biafra is mention I feel so sad and. sorry, I want to state here that the issue of Biafra war was senseless, an act of genocide, ethnic cleansing and human rights abuse- killing over a million of defenceless infant through starvation by our great leaders such as awolowo etc, it was one of the greatest mass genocide after 2world war - over 3 million people killed and yet we view it as a mere number- and non of the perpetrators has been convicted, jail or petition by so call human right groups, ICC and UN, maybe because Britain, Egypt and to extend Russia(world power) were behind while the great america watch the killing in neutrality.
this bring me to Issue of one Nigeria, a united country can only be created if the issue of mutual benefit is addressed e.g Scotland wasn't comfortable with brexit so they decide on referendum to determine their existence but on the other hand, they realize that they benefit more from the union with Britain than with EU, so they choose to stay. to keep a country as one is not by use of force currently practice by Nigeria government but by development, fairness and equality (why not entice easterners with infrastructural development, equal share in national issues and conducive environment for business) rather than throw all the country ammunition at them to subdue and kill them in the name of one Nigeria..
another issue I want to address is the issue of referendum, any time this issue is being mentioned our leaders mistook it for war, REFERENDUM Is NOT WAR and o yes the easterners deserve one, anyone can write or say what he or she wanna say but for fairness sake let the easterners decide their future for ones through peaceful voting (uncompromised and supervised by united Nation), only the easterner(south south and south east) formally defunt eastern region or break away Biafra can partake, and I want to stress it here that referendum is for agitator and not those in comfort. this means that West and middle belt region have no business demanding for referendum because they are comfortable with the setup and it favors them, they fought along with the federal troop against Biafra to unit the country and they never agitate for once which means they are integral part of the setup.
another vital point is the east(Igbo) vs South South, it should be appreciated that after ojukwu came another who is widely accepted by most igbos as their leader- nnamdi KANU, but remember if KANU is accepted by Igbo he is a leader of Igbo and not Biafra which comprise the present south south, I will point out that this is one of the key issue why ojukwu failed. the south south were consider as being part of Biafra territory but a minority and were no t carried along, and if there is a referendum that Biafra should go, the new country will be divided based on old map which include the south, therefore if KANU wants to be a real Biafra leader and bring biafra dreams ever closer, since he has partially congar the east, he should focus his attention on the south cos that is the region that will hastened the actualization of Biafra due to various reasons. he should organised meetings with chiefs elders and respected men of the major tribes in the region and gain their approval, enlightened them of the benefit of being part of the new country such as implementation of a decentralised system of government were every states of the federation is independent,develop and manage their resources.
East and south coalition can also be thought of as an alternative, were south east and south south can come together to fight for Biafra referendum after which they can seperate after independent has been achieved, maybe the south east (Biafra) and south south(Niger delta republic or whatever) and before this, every issue of national interest must be address such as boundaries, immigration policies, currency etc.
Note: waiting for the governor and political actors to act means waiting forever, because the political institutions of eastern and southern region has been highly compromise by federal government to deny the people of their right.
let Biafra arise.

The governors in Nigeria remind me of the power-drunk satraps of the defunct Persian Empire. Always cut off from the people and unapproachable. Imagine the number of uniforms and camouflage accompanying just one man. Is it war?

Rochas well done nicely played mate but you don't know what is involved in building a market at a particular spot,that market is older than your father and you destoryed it well done sir God is watching you.

There wasn't any jubilation in Owerri yesterday, we were raising our hands up while passing Mbaise Road.

Although the Governor gave them warning Notice before he demolished it, but there was chaos and uproar in a Owerri yesterday, where people lost their lives and property.

So i wonder how it's now jubilation.

who voted him into power?

If I see you face to face with this kind idiotic question wey you de ask, I go bash your head in. IDIOT.
How much of our votes really count in Nigeria during the elections?
If our votes really do count, more than half of the country's governors would never have been occupants of their present seats but here they are and youare asking who voted him in. Morafoka who voted in the Katsina Cattle rearer as President?

A great injustice has been dished out to the people of Owerri by the one man who is charged with taking care of them, Rochas Okorocha!. Means of livelihood destroyed, innocent lives lost.

Nobody is truly happy in Owerri, the Federal Medical Center in Owerri looked like a military hospital in times of war because of the many casualties of bullet wound rushed down there yesterday.

I am so pained, so emotional, I cant even begin to imagine what those who lost their loved ones and their wares are going through. A 10yr old boy got a bullet in the head, and there is this very sad picture of his sister crying besides his dead body.

This is just a maniacal show of total power, Rochas had no right to destroy that market because the case is still in court, but our political office holders do not obey court rulings.

May all those who defend and hail this oppressing act by the government live to experience it firsthand. You will be live to see your loved ones die in this kinds of crossfire.
Sarrki, you that has refused to grow some sense and empathy forgetting that we are all humans afterall and bleed the same color of blood this prayer is for you.

Abagworo the Rochas puppet who has refused to see anything wrong in all the senselessness Rochas exhibits, that prayer is for you.
