Two lawyers in Effurun, Delta, manage to elude death at the hands of thugs in a protest

The DSC roundabout in Effurun, Delta State's Uvwie Local Government Area, is where the event happened. The lawyers were about to be slain when military forces stepped in to intervene. The attorneys, who are part of the Effurun section of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), are presently receiving treatment at the Ekpan General Hospital for severe injuries they suffered as a result of the abuse. On his Facebook page, Omes Ogedegbe recounted his experience being held captive by thugs yesterday, saying, "We were beaten but not broken down." We have a duty to guide society as attorneys. As lawyers, we took the decision to conduct a poll in response to complaints of demonstrators being brutalized. When Oghenetega Comrade and I arrived to the DSC roundabout, I was accompanied by three other attorneys. We witnessed a man describe his experiences at the hands of the goons. "With deadly weapons drawn, the thugs ambushed us, claiming they were ordered to make sure there was no demonstration in Uvwie. The police were merely a short distance away amusing themselves while the incident was occurring, implying that they approved of the attackers. God's kid cannot be defeated and released. We were able to apprehend five extremely ruthless individuals who appeared resolute in their attempt to murder demonstrators until the valiant officers of the 3 battalions of the Nigerian army arrived precisely when needed.…
