Video of angry soldiers threatening youths in Warri for killing their colleague
Two Nigerian soldiers have threatened to rape the female entities of the youths in Warri, Delta state who allegedly killed one of their colleagues on Thursday 2, April.
Recall that during the enforcement of the lockdown exercise in the state on Thursday 2, April 2020, youths in Ugbuwangue community in Warri, Delta state had a clash with some soldiers after a youth leader named Jospeh Pessu, was allegedly shot dead by a soldier.
The youths pursued the soldiers and attacked them physically. Unclear reports claim that one of the soldiers died during the attack.
Joseph Pessu, was allegedly shot dead by a soldier at Ada Val Arenyenka street, along the Ugbuwangue axis of the NPA Expressway, Warri, Delta state for defying the lock down order.
The sad incident occurred at about 9:40am on Thursday, April 2, while the victim was riding his power bike.
The Delta State Government had declared a lockdown across the state for 14 days, which started on Wednesday, 1 April 2020.
However, only those on essential duties are exempted from the order, as stated by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, who warned that security operatives will be deployed across the state to enforce the directive.
Joseph Pessu, who was out of his home during the lockdown, was flagged down by a team of security operatives but he allegedly refused to stop for proper identification and this resulted in a purse.
Eye witnesses who are the sources said the officers triggered the gun and fired at Pessu’s bike tyres during the chase before one officer shot him dead.
His corpse was said to have been taken to Police Command in Delta.
The man’s death annoyed youths in the area and they took to the streets to protest in spite of the “14-days stay-at-home” directive.
The chairman of Warri South council area, Dr. Michael Tidi, with a political leader in the area, Chief Vincent Okudolor, intervened during their visit to the place and disclosed that the officer responsible for shooting the man has been arrested. They urged the people to keep calm.
But the youths were not appeased and some of them attacked two soldiers and the attack was caught on video.
Two angried Army personnel made a video, threatening to sexually abuse the females of the youths that allegedly killed their colleague. They threatened to infect the girls and women with HIV.
