Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shuaibu has alleged that three #EndSARS protesters were raped during the demonstration in the state.
The Deputy Governor disclosed this while appearing on Channels Television ‘Politics Today’ on Monday, October 19. Speaking after a curfew was imposed in the state following jailbreaks in Edo state, Shuaibu said;
“It’s quite unfortunate that the #EndSARS protests today went violent and the correctional service at Sapele road and Oko prison were invaded. There was a jail break on both sides.
“Before then, during the weekend, hoodlums took over. Yesterday, three young ladies were raped.
“Some through reckless driving hit up some persons. A lot of lives are already being lost. For the state government, it is not acceptable.”
