Inside Uromi: Why Edo Government Is Pulling Down Buildings Over Cult Violence

Описание: Tension rises in Uromi, Edo State, as the government carries out a sweeping demolition of buildings allegedly connected to cultism and criminal hideouts following recent security raids and arrests. Properties identified through intelligence-led operations were brought down after suspects reportedly ignored official ultimatums, positioning the move as a tough response to cult violence and insecurity. This report examines the strategy behind the demolitions, the legal and social questions surrounding forced property forfeiture, and whether this approach can truly dismantle organised crime or push it elsewhere. Retired military officer Alhaji Suleiman Ojo joins the discussion to assess the security message being sent to criminal groups and communities, and the real effectiveness of demolition as a deterrent. Watch to understand what this moment means for Uromi and wider security efforts across Edo State.
