“We need more routine public patrolling by police officers on streets”

August 8, 2018 By Contributor

I was walking on the street barely 10 meters from my house when this vulgar piece of human starts chanting obscure songs as he passed by me.

He had the guts to look back whether I was looking at him or not!!

And the next day A boy almost 12 did the same!!

Now that shows how educated our country is!!

We need routine public patrolling by police officers on streets and in buses.

Dear parents of overly spoiled boy…

As a matter of fact, sensitivity training for young men in your homes would be enough!

Thanking you,

Women of your nation
