Residents flee as hoodlums kill policemen, injure many

Punch

Some suspected hoodlums on Thursday, killed two policemen and injured unspecified number of residents in Imowo Nla community in Ikorodu, Lagos State.

One of the policemen, named Ikpi Ikpi, an inspector, was said to have been ambushed in the early hours of Wednesday.

An eyewitness, who craved anonymity, said Ikpi and some of his men were going for a  raid in company with some residents when he met his untimely death.

The eyewitness said, “It was around 4am on Wednesday when Ikpi went for a raid in the community. But unknown to him, some hoodlums from Ikorodu had laid siege to the community.

“Because the community was enveloped in darkness at that time, the Inspector and his men were unaware of the hoodlums’ presence. Ikpi was hit by a bullet fired by the hoodlums.”

He said the other policeman, who died on Thursday, was cut with machete on Tuesday, when the hoodlums numbering over 100 first invaded the community.

Emergency Rule: Govs, LG Chairmen to Take Orders from Jonathan

ThisDay

The National Assembly has conferred more powers on President Goodluck Jonathan to administer the three states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, where he declared a state of emergency last week.

Under the new dispensation, governors and local government chairmen in the three states of the North-east zone will henceforth take orders from the president.

This was the resolve of the National Assembly yesterday as the two chambers of the legislature met to harmonise their positions on the request of the president, seeking approval for the declaration of state of emergency in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe States, which they had earlier ratified.

The two chambers of the National Assembly on Tuesday had approved the presidential declaration but with some differences in terms of details of its implementation. However, the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) faulted the new powers conferred on the president and accused him of engaging in deceit by reneging on his promise not to allow the state of emergency to affect the operation of democratic structures in the affected states.
