Some of the protesting Oke-Ere women captured from the viral video
Some angry women from Oke-Ere in the Yagba West Local Government Area of Kogi State came out on Wednesday to protest what they called the ?endless reign of terror? in their community.
The women, many of whom are elderly, marched through the town with sad chants in a local dialect.
In a video sighted by PUNCH Online on Wednesday, they appeared half-naked, holding sticks and leaves as they cried and sang about the constant attacks, kidnappings, and killings happening around them.
They begged the government and security forces to step in quickly and stop the violence.
This protest comes not long after armed men kidnapped three people and injured four others along the Ayere-Kabba Expressway in March.
The Injured victims were taken to St. John?s Hospital in Kabba for treatment. (The PUNCH)
