dailypostNGR Thank God

Tweetwizzard I think the Nigeria Police has to do something about her case bcoz I cried all day cause of this incident.... But what do guys derive in Rape...? Or Asahwo no dey again

I believe strongly that Nigerian police is capable of handling the case if they determine to do it. The fear is that the case may be hijacked by the power that be while presenting innocent people as suspects in order to save face

See Nigerian police with fingerprint. Innocent people leaving around is at risk.

It's fake oooo.... They have just arrested an innocent person

good one

Jesu!! Nigeria police? Finger prints Since when Devil is a liar oo.....

Fake news but will dont have data base in 9ja....how finger print wont indicate the exact person unless they got a suspect and they took is sample

Beautiful, good job Nigerianpolice. Hope they get the punishment they deserve.

They should not suffer an innocent person ooo, wondering when Nigeria got to the stage of identifying fingerprints.

One yeye lawyer, now go appear to defend this rapist for court... Mtchew

wow..this is good..i pray justice is served soonest..SO NIGERIAN POLICE USE FINGER PRINTING n I NEVER SEE THEM PROTECTING CRIME SCENES..OR TREATING EXHIBITS with care..pls get this right o..make sure u get the demon that did this..all d best

Finger prints? Nigerian police since when?

The culprits must be cultist within UNIBEN, the govt should reintroduce public firing execution inside UNIBEN as a lesson to deter such herendious, callous and cowardly act. Four good for nothing idiots against a young respectable lady and you call yourselves shameless men.

I know everybody wants justice,even myself i want justice too,but pls the police should be careful while finding the culprits because we no how weak and corrupt this Nigeria police system is,dont go and arrest innocent person and lie on their head for what they know nothin about.

Good news

Give the suspect interrogational torture; sometimes quite effective

Good one 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Are you pple for real? please justice most prevail, this girl death hit me so hard ,me thinking we have crossed path before Justice for uwa

Tweetwizzard Wtf🙁. Nigeria has our finger prints on record.

Nigerians! Wow this is how we expect cases to be approached. If we don't speak out, we will suffer. So Nigerian police can trace criminals like this. God know how many victims have died in vain while their perpetrators go on living in luxury. JusticeForUwa justiceforjennifer

Fundamental human rights in Nigeria is totally jeopardize everyday by our so called elite
