The women, who sounded gongs as they marched across major streets in the community, said that the alleged militarisation of the region has resulted in their children too scared to go to schools, claiming that the Federal Government soldiers rape women and commit other crimes in the community.
Hundreds of the Ohafia women were part of the protest, who insisted that the soldiers must leave their community and that their children must go back to school.
