Kanayo O. Kanayo Queries President Tinubu Over Security In The South East
Popular veteran Nollywood actor has bemoaned the heavy security presence in the South-Eastern part of the country.
The veteran actor made this complaint on his Instagram page, where he spoke about the stress that travellers treading that part of the country face.
He noted that during his visit to the Western part of the country, he did not experience heavy military presence like the South East.
He said:
“I left the Felele Olorunsogo area of Ibadan at 7:15 this morning and I am in Lagos state at exactly 8:15. I found out one thing, over the distance of 80 kilometres, I didn’t see any police or army checkpoints.
“Why is the South-East so militarised and policed that you can’t go 200 kilometres without checkpoint.
“I need to ask this question because the humiliation and delay that people go through needs to be pointed out. They humiliate people that plied same distance from Enugu-Onitsha so badly that most of the time that passengers are asked to come down with their hands up.
“Is the South-East still part of Nigeria? Let us understand. Have the representatives seen the state of the federal roads?”
