  • A gang of yet-to-be-identified hoodlums have invaded the palace of a monarch in Kogi state.

  • Daily Report Nigeria gathers that the hoodlums committed arson in the area, while also burning the monarch’s car.

A group of bandits have invaded the home of the Etsu of Lokoja, Emmanuel Akamisoko Dauda-Shelika, Nyamkpa IV, causing mayhem in the process.

Narrating his ordeal, the monarch said his home, which was located on plot 306, New Layout, Lokoja was attacked around 1am on Saturday, December 21, by hoodlums.

The monarch added that he had to scale his fence so as to avoid being attacked.

The hoodlums however proceeded to burn his vehicle and other properties within the palace premises.

 

“It was around 1 am at night that I had a big bang on my door and I woke up to check through the window, wondering what could have happened.

“Then, I suddenly saw wildfire coming out of my car as it had been set ablaze by attackers. I knew it was an attack on the palace, and therefore I could not come out because of fear of being attacked. So, I managed to come out through the back door and scaled the fence to escape for my life.

 

“Thereafter, I came out to the road and realised that all my neighbours in the community were on the ground trying hard to quench the fire, but unfortunately the car was burnt, as well as other properties inside it.”

 

He also appealed to the government and other security agencies to investigate the cause of the attack, and the perpetrators.

We are appealing to His Excellency, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo, and security agencies to please use their good offices to investigate this unfortunate incident, and bring to justice whoever is concerned whether directly or indirectly.

“We also want the government to kindly visit our issues by recognizing and grading the stool of Etsu Lokoja which had been in existence before colonisation. 

“By officially recognising and grading Etsu Lokoja stool, we know everything will be laid to rest because that is the power of the government.

“If the government remains silent and looks away, it leaves the door open for this kind of thing to happen. And as a people, we will not want to see such things continue. 

“I urge my people to remain as peaceful and law-abiding as we have always been because this incident has drawn the attention of government to our issue,” Dauda-Sheika added.
