Igbo group blows hot over invasion of Gov. Umahi’s residence
Nzuko Umunna, the Igbo think tank organization, has condemned the invasion of the Abuja residence of Governor Dave Umahi, Chairman of South East Governors’ Forum and Ebonyi State Governor.In a statement signed by Joe Odumuko
“We note that the invaders were clearly identified as security operatives who subjected occupants of the premises and police officers on duty to intolerable harassment and intimidation before thoroughly ransacking the premises. “The sole purpose of this dastardly and hideous plot is to intimidate, overawe and silence Governor Umahi and his colleagues at the South East Governors Forum and prevent them from discharging their mandate of speaking boldly on behalf of the South East people.
“We ask President Muhammadu Buhari to order a full scale enquiry into this curious invasion by security operatives with a view to ensuring that the perpetrators are speedily brought to justice.
