Some policemen were seen flogging four young men and a woman with sticks in Orlu, Imo state on Wednesday morning, January 27, 2021.
There was a shooting spree in Orlu on Monday, between members of IPOB’s Eastern Security Network (ESN) and Nigerian soldiers. The violent clash led to killing of innocent unarmed persons, forcing Governor Hope Uzodinma to impose a dusk to dawn curfew (6pm to 6am) in the area.
However, this morning, some policemen were seen in a video flogging some young people. It is not yet clear why they are being flogged. But, many are calling out the security personnel for the abuse.
