One year after he was kidnapped, the family of Prof Uwedinachi Iweha, have called on Governor Alex Otti of Abia State and Obi Aguocha, the member representing Ikwuano/Umuahia at the National Assembly, to task security agencies in the state to bring the matter to a positive conclusion.
In August 2022, the Umuopara clan women also staged two protests over his abduction, while the community traditional ruler, HRH Godfrey Ibeakanma , relations, and friends did their best to assist the family in Pressuring the security agencies.
According to the son, “The security forces have been working with us with some results, but 52 weeks have passed, and they have still not been able to produce the real culprits behind this devilish act or return our father to us”. “There have been many rumours of his return from devious sources. However, I want to state that we are still looking for our father and pleading with whoever planned his abduction or his abductors to please release him to us
“As a family, we cannot discern the motive behind this evil act or even point any accusing fingers at anybody, we have our trust in God that he will return and be reunited with us in good health”, he said. “We humbly beg to the Executive Governor of Abia state, His Excellency Alex Otti and the representative of our community at the State and Federal Houses of Assembly to assist us in tasking the security agencies to bring this matter to a positive conclusion,” he pleaded.All rights reserved.
