LGA Chairman In Akwa Ibom Shows Off “Necessary Equipment” He Provided For The Security Unit To Fight Insecurity.

satirically highlights Ntiedo Effiong Usoro, Chairman of Essien Udim LGA in Akwa Ibom State, presenting basic items like machetes, raincoats, gumboots, and torchlights as "necessary equipment" for a local security unit combating insecurity.

This provision draws widespread online mockery, as the gear appears ill-suited for confronting armed threats prevalent in Nigeria's Niger Delta region, where vigilante groups often face better-equipped criminals.

The viral thread underscores ongoing governance critiques in Nigeria, with replies emphasising the equipment's inadequacy—such as machetes versus rifles—amid rising calls for federal support in community policing.
