I am begging the Nigerian authority to come to the aid of the people of Ajegunle now, before they will kill every growing youth in Ajegunle,” Showkey stated in the post with a graphic photo of a badly butchered person with a caption on it.

He lamented that people are just been killed in the community as if human life has no value.
