The ENDSARS Protest on Friday ended bloody,as two persons were killed at King Square, Ring Road.
Trouble started at about 10.30 am,when the protesters moved from the National Museum to block the Ring Road.
On getting to the State House of Assembly,some thugs numbering about 10,mostly teenagers believed to have come from Ogbe Quarters disrupted the peaceful protest with guns, cutlasses and other dangerous weapons.
The protesters scampered for safety,but later regrouped to give the thugs a chase for their lives,and that stopped the protest temporary but the youths fully determined did not want to hear stop.
The battle later shifted to the gate of the ObaPalace, where the thugs used as their base, until one of the protesters simply identified as Ik was hacked down by the thugs.This made the protesters angry as they continue to chase the thugs.
Another middle aged man was later killed with gun by the thugs at the back of Urokpota Hall about 12.30pm. The protesters were never deterred by all these challenges,but they still mobilized and later moved to the government house of Edo State.
Many other persons received matchet cuts and bullets wounds.
ENDSARS Protest started some weeks ago across the states,Edo State inclusive. It was a protest against the Special Anti-
Robbery Squad ( SARS) which the IGP, Mohammed Adamu replaced by SWAT.
