This led to a peaceful protest in Port-Harcourt by a group of young women urging the Nigerian police to step up. Meanwhile, a lady known by her controversy has a piece of advice for young ladies.
The arrest of the serial killer by the Nigerian police, however, is not void of skepticism.
A Nigerian thinks the Nigerian police has the wrong person because the report doesn’t give enough details.
As much as I want to agree to this story, I also find it hard to believe they av found the right person or if another person will not become a copycat. Am just saying our @PoliceNG is not detailed enuff to conclude this man is the killer. Where are the evidence?.
