The governor gave the directive when he paid a visit to the troubled local government area, plagued with cult activities, where residents are said to be living in constant fear.
The governor inaugurated an Anti-Cult Task Force, which comprises of the Army, Police, SSS and the Imo Security Network, and gave them an order to shoot cult members at sight. The anti-cult task force will be deployed to troubled areas in the state to search for and move into cultists’ dens as part of measures to improve security situation in the State.

choi! harsh but acceptable. just hope it doesn't get outta hand
Slaves of d devil. I will be cool if people start calling me 'LIB Princess' pretex4luv@yahoo.com
Way too harsh. Abuse of power if u ask me. A person remains a suspect until proven guilty only then can you decide what approach of punishment to take. What if you shoot on sight only to realise the person was innocent. Rochas should face other pressing matters in Imo including poor road networks, unemployment and untidy environment to mention a few. prettyprecious0018@yahoo.com
Hmmm! Dats serious.....de shud not go abt shooting innocent pple oh!

Ok dats cool.
Very good idea....
I am in support if they try to escape or run, but if they surrender, they shouldn't shoot, they should be taking into custody, the rule of law should be followed
Your comment will be visible after approval
I approve. Anything to secure the lives n property of the masses. Good job!!
I he is trying to sanitize Imo state but the rule of law should be applied, Someone should be tried and convicted for a crime he/she is alleged for. I know Nigerian Police, with this order they will even shoot a pregnant woman and tag her a cultist. People should talk to sense Rochas
Village champions will always be village champions, Day gbam and day well names of cult lol
Day gbam and day well?? This has to be the most hilarious post for this week..From the name of the fraternity,you can know the brain capacity size of their members...........#cheEzyjayne
Good!!!
As long as innocent students r not being killed* I supports it. they r Jx constituting nuisance with their nefarious activities.
I totally agree with you, thats a harsh order/law, i personally dont agree with instant justice. Am not trying to justify what these cultists do but hey isnt any other alternate in handling them than shooting them?
Ahorlu Gloria
Linda u dey laff abi for ur info deygbam and deywell were two prominent and strong group that almost ruined portHarcourt from borokiri to diobu they held reign supreme until the police dislodged them.
so if the governor of imo state says shoot at sight it is shoot sight it is a welcome development only the innocent would get claimed in this war and a lot of people will b setup security forces need to be careful and investigate
too harsh..shoot at sight for wat..ar they BH?......................................#KingOfKings
too harsh..shoot at sight for wat..ar they BH?......................................#KingOfKings
How wud dey verify if d person is a cultist? Won't dis lead to anarchy? Anybody can jst see an area looking boy, says es a cultist nd shoot! Muchless, since wen do governors start ordering d police?
Think its harsh how do you identify a cultist?

I know he is trying to sanitize the state but the rule of law should be applied. A person should be tried an for a crime he/she is alleged for, if found guilty, proper sanction should be administered. Giving such order will cause more harm than good. I know Nigerian Police, with this order they might shoot a pregnant woman and tag her cultist. Someone should talk sense into his head.
Mr man thats too harsh, dont you have fear of GOD

NOT GOOD@ALL.THATS THE SAME JUNGLE JUSTICE WE ARE SPEAKING AGAINST.

Hey,,Mr rogas,dats too outrageous...#watch out nw 4 innocent ppl being shot in d name of cultist...
Hahahhaha.... i know it will be the black hls and the red hls that like fighting... smh for them sha, you guys should keep up the good fight... jor oh
Not harsh at all...
This governor is dumb!! Shoot at sight? Do cultist go around with their membership card? Or is there an identify at sight mechanism to be used? How do you identify a cultist?
They will end up shooting the wrong people. This is jungle justice.
Its not a gud idea,the innocent might fall a victim
Now they will start Killing innocent citizens, why shoot at sight? Why not capture them and interview them so we can get more useful informations from them ?or do they also stronger weapons than our military? These are questions okorocha needs to answer.
Gbam!!!
Not too good, they should be very careful, or they might shoot an innocent person.
Although its a bit harsh 4 him giving such orders, that's about the only way 2 curb this menace as the cultists would b scared of the law cuz now its in a direct treat to their lives else the incident dat just happened will only b d beginning Governor Rochas Okorocha is an intelligent man, nice move.
Nice move...
I KEEP SAYING END TIME HAS COME

its a hard one oooooooo,what of innocent people that are dragged along.with no clue of where they are going.
Dis guys deserv no mercy
His son should be killed first
Before dey shoot make dem confirm oh!! i concur if na real cultist..
It depends on whether it's "shoot to kill or to maim".. If it's to kill, hmmm..too harsh..
They should also consider using rubber bullets.
*My R1.50c comment*
All I know is that a lot of innocent people are going to get killed.
Fool governors r d chief security officer of a state, so dey have right to make laws and give orders to security agents under d state. U dig.
Montana
Gov.don't slack at all,fire for fire,this is how Boko Haram started.But my fear,I hope this will not turn into witch hunting perceived enemies or political enemies.
Governor Rochas Okorocha shoot-at-sight order for cultists (or ANYONE) in Imo state is the most bizarre, idiotic and myopic statement of the month. BUNKERS. Is he calling for JUNGLE JUSTICE? Is he calling for EXTRAJUDICIAL PUNISHMENT? Is Rochas Okorocha calling for EXTRAJUDICIAL KILLING? How about the RULE OF LAW? Are there no JUDICIARY in Imo State? Does Nigeria not have a CONSTITUTION? How did a stupid and ignorant man get elected as a State Governor? Rochas Okorocha, how about if someone was wrongly accused? How about a shoot-at-sight justice for corrupt politicians? How about a shoot-at-sight justice for moronic politicians? Rochas Okorocha, for your information, this is 2014, not 1914. In a civilised society, victims, criminals and none criminals have rights. In a civilised society where there is rule of law, if someone breaks the law, they are arraigned before a court of law, not unlawfully deprived of their Human Rights and not unlawfully deprived of their right to a fair trial. In Nigeria, when intellectually challenged, but devious and crafty politicians are looting the treasury and impoverishing the masses, they intentionally make bizarre and alarming statements and divert public attention and occupy the public's mind in foolishness and frivolous debates, while they are enriching themselves and stashing their loots in PROPERTIES IN EUROPE, SOUTH AFRICA AND AMERICA and truckloads of £££s, €€€s & $$$s in OFFSHORE TRUSTS. Pathethic.
True harsh but accepted.. Cultist are like armed robbers and assasins. They have no mercy and would kill anyone who dares stop them.
This will go a long way to curtail cultist activities.
Dats 2oo harsh buh may b he dsnt rlly mean 2 shoot nd kill.
Approved... ndi nsusu Lekwa the nonsense name... gov please Imsu, nekede,futo etc cultists nt exempted
Am more interested in d name of d cults...wht of Day-Break & Day-Dark..
The rate of cultism is alarming here in imo, just d other day during a meeting wit students and management, a boy narrated how he was forcefully initiated by another guy, even though the guy was caught, his life is still in danger..itz a welcomed development , buh we know how nigerian armed forces act na, they will start misbehaving, I suggest d use rubber bullets ooo..
Na from daygbam and deywell wey niger delta militants (their Rivers State wing) metamorphose from o, so no be laffing matter, i guess Rochas knows the effect of not curtailing them in Imo State
Am in support of Gov. Rochas. I grew up in PH and I know about this group...very wicked group. we lived in constant fear those days
If its up to me,i will pull the trigger myself,my brother lost his gf to these animals 5 yrs back,will never forget the devastation he went through,
I agree
The group can be likened to boko haram, they even go as far as beheading some of their victims, people living in Port harcourt can attest to this, they are bruttal to the core
Gbam, na wetin good be that, we no want BOKO for our state abeg.
†o dis cultist deserve no mercy jawe buh make dem use rubber bullet first sha
this isnt right,,,patoswife@gmail.com

Folks don't think killing is wrong, a world where we are legislating killing, wow. So what is essence of police and military training, is it to shoot alone or they don't learn other techniques to take down suspects
mumu bois wld always be mum bois
Way too harsh!...the police will start shooting anything at sight now under the guise that they are cultists!
Hmmmm, a. Suspects assumes innocent until tried in d court of law. Therefore, use rubber bullet to get them arrested and tried them before final judgment.
I love that punishment...

God bless you! The armed forces will use this as an opportunity to kill people recklessly!... This will only help unjust extrajudicial killings in d state knowing how trigger happy and useless our armed forces are! Linda post my comment oh! And can you make a post on police and their illegal check points in Lagos Linda? Luv you!
That's too harsh but then those boys are normally heartless.
And who gave him the right to?? I just laugh at him. Cus UN wud just be on his ass in no time. Dumbass governor!
approved... nkemdirimeverista111@gmail.com
Lol! Godswill Akpabio did it in Akwa-ibom and it has gone a long way in sanitising that state. Let's hope many innocent lives won't be lost.
Imbecilic governor. They should shoot you First. Ogboni no be cult?
In those days in Pitakwa u go just dey chill on ur own dey sip ur thing, person go just waka come meet u "guy wida u dey gbam or u dey well?"
So they have now relocated to Imo! Abeg flush them bad men out
Too bad
This is pure jungle justice ..Mr Rochas are u a saint? Imo state have 99% problems which cult activities is not even one of her problem. Go and have several sit. U are indirectly supporting jungle justice. A person is innocent until proves guilty. wise up olodo
These 2 cult groups r famous in Rivers State,too bad they now in Imo. And Egbema? I guess it flows with the oil
Givin shoot on sight order 2 d nigerian police s lyk askin 4 evry 1 2 b killed...The Architect
Good.
Jungle justice...never justified.
Can we tackle the issue of cultism in Nigeria? Is it preventable?
Unemployment? Family? Society? Personal choice?
Nigeria.
Rochas has clearly shown he is unfit to hold any public post. How can he sanction extrajudicial killing? So with all the security arms available to him, he cannot conduct investigations and carry out raids of confirmed cultists lair? Innocent people will get caught in the crossfire, what a shame.
Useless Gov,he shud not forget that ogboni is a cult too,and shud be shot on sight too....kettle callin pot black
Am frm Ohaji,its geting out of hand.dey can come to where ur mother is and rape u.beat ur dat etc

Kill dem all but don't touch the innocent. (Ikponwa)
State government do not have such power.he is not the IG or the chief of army staff.he knows nothing about security.
This is just the beginning by the time you will have your state police that you are asking for.you will regret having police under the control of politicians
Kill them all
