Apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, on Friday, condemned the killing of eight security operatives in Imo State by unknown gunmen.
He said, “the Igbo people are known to have respect for the sanctity of life; they are not used to shedding blood, no matter who is involved. “The recent developments underscore my views that there is a need for a security summit in the South-East, as well as an all-encompassing dialogue, where all aggrieved interests would be allowed to lay their grouse on the table.
Okwu, however, appealed to security agencies not to wage war on the people of Umuezeala Owerre in Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State.
