I think the police should have handled the situation differently. Maybe negotiation could have been an option? Just a thought.
Negotiation isnt always possible in dangerous situations. Police must prioritize public safety.
I think the police should have let the ers make their move to see how well they could handle the situation.
Thats a reckless suggestion. Police should prevent harm, not wait for it to happen.
I dont trust the police in Imo State. They always seem to conveniently foil s right before soing big happens. Fishy, right?

I think we should consider arming civilians to help prevent s like this. Its time for a new approach.
Arming civilians is not the solution. It will only lead to more violence and chaos.
