The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth wing has voiced strong condemnation regarding the reported summoning of Mr. Chijioke Ezugwu, the Uzo-Uwani local government chairman, by the Enugu State police command. This follows recent violence in Uzo-Uwani, where suspected herdsmen have allegedly killed numerous residents, prompting local security efforts.

According to reports, Mr. Ezugwu was questioned regarding alleged killings of herdsmen. Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide President, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, has called the summon unacceptable, lamenting the perceived lack of police action against the alleged perpetrators of the Uzo-Uwani attacks while criticizing the swiftness in summoning the council chairman.

Mr. Okwu stated that the situation in Uzo-Uwani is underreported and severe, marked by frequent abductions and attacks. He criticized the police for allegedly failing to apprehend those responsible for violence, including the murder of an elderly couple. He further asserted that the police’s actions may be perceived as emboldening criminals. The group has urged the Enugu State Police Command to address these allegations. They warn that continued “harassment” of the council chairman could result in widespread protests by Igbo youths.
