Photos: Uruan people cry out against govt destruction of their buildings: “Oh, they have killed us!”


We did a story earlier on the pulling down of several buildings in Ekpene Ukim village, Uruan Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom State. (in case you missed the story, click here to read it). Gov. Udom Emmanuel ordered the demolition. The government says the buildings were illegal structures, but the people say they are being punished for supporting APC in the last general elections. Here, we bring to you photos showing a people in anguished, protesting against their perceived enemy – the government. (Photo credits: Essien Inyang).
