LATE MAKU COMMITTED TO MOTHER EARTH AMID TEARS

The remains of Late Diepreye YEKWE (aka MAKU) has been committed to mother earth, at the Azikoro Cemetery, Yenagoa, yesterday 3rd September, 2022.

Mr Diepreye YEKWE was macheted to the point of death, by youths of Agorogbene at Agorogbene Community in Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, where he went to attend a friend birthday party on the 30th of July, 2022. He later died at the Niger Delta University Teaching Hospital, Okolobiri, after spending few hours in the hospital.

Contrary to false claims contained in a petition addressed to the State Commissioner of Police, signed by the Paramount Ruler and the CDC Chairman of Agorogbene Community, THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS TWO FIGHTING ON THAT FATEFUL DAY. The victim was simply excused from the venue of the birthday party by a boy who was sent by the assailants, and was later attacked.

It is painful, insulting and inciting that the leadership of Agorogbene Community is altering facts, just to protect the criminals within them from justice. Why paint a picture of TWO FIGHTING or CULT BATTLE when there was no such thing on that day?

I honestly do not trust the sincerity of any effort, claimed to have been made by the people of Agorogbene Community to fish out the killers of the young MAKU. They themselves aided the escape of some of the suspects from the community. We know what they are doing to kill the case.

With what is going on in this case and other cases alike, crime will continue to thrive in our society. Mindless killings of innocent citizens would take place and people will tag it a "cult clash", and nothing is done to the killers.

It is sad. It is shameful. This is not the society we yearn for. My late father would say "LEAVE AM FOR GOD," but sometimes it is hard to LEAVE.
