Okey Maduforo

There is growing tension in the South East over the attacks on security operatives in the area giving impetus to the call by  the Igbo Community in Abuja to urge all the security service heads to be vigilant in the area.

This is on the account of  the alarm raised by the Association of Igbo Community in Abuja  over the attacks and burning of security vehicles in the South East insisting that the only way to end the uneasy calm in Igbo land is to seek political solution over the fate of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu leader of Indigenous People Of Biafra ( IPOB) .

The Association also charged security operatives to rise above the attacks by ensuring law and order in the South East by being proactive and alive to their responsibilities.

Rising from a meeting of the body , the President of Igbo Community in Abuja , Engr Ikenna- Ellis Ezenekwe and the Secretary General Chief Emmanuel Ona  dismissed the Federal High Court judgement against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, lamenting that it would continue to deepen insecurity in the area .

“At the moment, we receive pockets of squimishees in the South East geopolitical zone where we hear of attacks on security operatives and burning of vehicles and this is not good for Igbo land”

“The security operatives are urged to be alive to their responsibilities to save South East from these incidents and protect public and private properties ” they stated .

The duo proffered a political solution to the fate of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu noting that in other countries certain political solutions are applied to ensure peace  , security, law and order in those countries.

The body called for the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu for peace and security to reign in Igbo land.
