Army deploys 3 trucks of soldiers, police one, to quell ongoing crisis in Boki oil palm estate.
It should be recalled that the crisis of the borum Palm Estate is basically an offshoot of the new found gold in Boki — Borum Palm Estate, which is is allegedly struggled by those who want to garner money to fund their elections and become political leaders of Boki.
For instance, on May, poor handling of the issues by both the Governor of Cross River State and his political appointees from Boki led to the shooting of two women leaving one dead.
In particular, last week there was a show of guns with some gangs rumoured to be operating with security outfits blockading themselves at Bafin Etimtim, Boki Local Government Area.
Hoodlums were allegedly seen with sophisticated guns shooting in the air in display of strength and an ownership of dangerous weapons.
Just about two days ago, one Martin Osang, loyal to the SA to the governor who has been given control of the Borum Palm Estate was kidnapped by some hoodlums. Not ending at the kidnap, the boys proceeded to the police Station and stormed the station and freed some of the men in police custody and in the process making away with a riffle belonging to the Nigerian police.
The basic failure of the present state government is the inability to secure the protection of lives and property.
