Bakassi Boys Return, Years After Disbandment

 

The Bakassi Boys, a vigilante group in the South East, have resurfaced in Awka, the capital of Anambra State, years after disbanding. They were observed singing and warning criminals from vans.

The name of the person who invited the dreaded vigilante group could not be confirmed. Some security men arrived in the state, according to a senior police officer who spoke on the condition of anonymity, but he could not confirm if they were dispatched by the government. Are you in favor of the Bakassi Boys’ return, based on recent events in the Southeast?
