DISRESPECTFUL! Lagos Dumps 70 Beggars In Onitsha

Add caption
he Lagos State government relocated 70 beggars to the Upper Iweka Bridge, Onitsha, Anambra State. They were dumped at 3am at Upper Iweka after being detained in Ikorodu, Lagos, for over six months for alleged wandering and other minor offences by the Lagos State Kick Against Indiscipline officials.


The Chairman of Nigeria Red Cross Society in the South-East, Dr. Peter Katchy, condemned it. He said, “It’s very deplorable; it’s very disheartening that a state in the Federal Republic of Nigeria will bundle people, who are not even indigenes of Anambra State, and dump them under the flyover at Upper Iweka in Onitsha.


Many of the people, we have interviewed are not indigenes of Anambra State. Some of them are from Ebonyi State; some are from Imo State among other states. It is an insult to Anambra State.

We shall draw the attention of the governor of Anambra State to ask the reason for such an invasion of his territory. We will find out why Lagos State should invade Anambra State territory; and why Lagos State should dump people here and leave them helpless.”
