By Wisdom Nwedene
Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has reacted to the alleged killing of a Keke Rider in Aba on Wednesday.
Igbere TV had reported that soldiers stationed in the Ogborhill axis of Aba allegedly killed a Keke Rider, identified as Mr. Chiomaobi Nwaogu Uzoukwa, for failing to pay a bribe of N100.
Speaking through his Commissioner for Information, John Okiyi, Ikpeazu called on the citizens and residents of the affected areas to remain calm, peaceful and not take the law into their hands.
He said the government is already engaging relevant agencies to establish the identities of those involved in the reported incident with a view to ensuring adequate punishment for whoever is found culpable.
The statement reads in part,
“The attention of Abia State Government has been drawn to a violent incident involving a security agent and an individual, identified as Mr Chimaobi Nwaorgu, who allegedly lost his life from gunshot wounds in Umuokereke-Ngwa, a village in Obingwa LGA of the State. Subsequently, youths of the community reportedly took the corpse of the victim to Ogbor Hill Area of Aba to lodge a protest at a media house which led to some skirmishes.”
“We wish to call on citizens and residents of the affected areas to remain calm, peaceful and not take the law into their hands. The Government is already engaging relevant agencies to establish the identities of those involved in the reported incident with a view to ensuring adequate punishment for whoever is found culpable.”
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Nwaorgu who reportedly lost his life and we pray God to give them the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.”
“This administration led by Governor
Okezie Ikpeazu considers security of lives and property of our citizens
and residents as its most sacred assignment and will not accept any act
that would undermine it. We will therefore continue to do whatever is
necessary to protect our people as well as ensure that the cause of
justice is always served.”
