Residents of the coal city, Enugu, are now living in fear following increasing attacks by armed robbers operating on fast moving motorcycles popularly called ‘Okada’.
Many victims who had been traumatized by the menace of Okada robbery, have continued to count their losses while praying that the long arm of the law should catch up with the hoodlums.
Apart from large amount of money, other valuables like laptop computers, mobile telephone handsets, jewelries and handbags are easily snatched from people trekking along the streets by the Okada robbers most ofthem armed with either foreign or locally-made pistols.(Vanguard Newspaper) This issue of armed robbery is gradually increasing by the day. It's becoming an "unbecoming"...the government have to do something urgently to address it before it gets 'out of hand', prominent among possible solutions to curbing robbery in our society is the massive creation of jobs. A lot of youths/graduates out there are unemployed and atimes, its frustration that makes them to start joining bad gangs out of desperation to make money...good evening everyone, hope ur day was good?
