ADEYINKA ADEDIPE writes on the rising insecurity in Edo State as characterised by kidnapping and killings, and the effects on residents
The activities of kidnappers and killer herdsmen in the past few months in Edo State have thrown the residents into panic despite assurances by the government and the state police command that lives and property are safe.
It is bad enough that night life is non-existent again in the state due to the fear caused by insecurity, but more worrisome is the fact that kidnappers have found a way to beat the system despite several arrests made by the police in recent times.
