Electoral violence: We do not have police in Nigeria – Falz, Mr P express disgust

Folarin “Falz” Falana and Peter “Mr P” Okoye, two Nigerian actors and singers, have criticized the Nigerian Police for failing to safeguard voters during the general elections in 2023.

Their main focus was the All Progressives Congress (APC)-affiliated thugs’ assault on Lagos state voters.

High levels of violence and intimidation, many of which were committed directly in front of the security personnel, marred the 2023 Lagos State governor election.

Recent videos showed police officers either observing the mayhem or actively helping to deny many voters their right to vote.

In reaction to the chaos, Falz tweeted: “I am so livid. This level of fuckery is unbelievable!

“A couple of Arise TV journalists were very badly beaten up at my polling unit. OF COURSE, in the presence of Police officers!”

“On the basis of which logic do you conclude that it’s okay to use force to get people to ‘vote’ for you ? All you supporters and enablers of this fxxkery are even more despicable. You know better, but you are EVIL at heart. You are VILE!”

I am so livid

This level of fuckery is unbelievable!

A couple of Arise TV journalists were very badly beaten up at my polling unit.

Also, Peter Okoye said; “We do not have police in Nigeria! All we have is thugs with uniforms! SHAME ON THEM!

You may recall that the police had dismissed the threat made against non-Lagosians by Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, the chairman of the state’s parks management committee, as a simple joke.

Oluomo had warned Igbos living in Lagos State in a viral video, telling them to either vote for the All Progressives Party, APC in the current governorship elections, or stay inside.
