Six masquerades accused of beating people and going against the ban on parading themselves on market days have been arrested at Okwor Ngbo market in Ohaukwu Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.
It was gathered that leaders of the Ngbo community had earlier warned the youths to stop using masquerades to harass and disturb market women and collect money from them.
Meanwhile, the Deputy Speaker of the Ebonyi State House of Assembly, Hon. Onah Chinedu Ogba, who spearheaded the ban, has said that he is not against masquerade display.
