“We are working with security Agencies, including the Police and DSS to nip the ugly incident at the board and ensure the arrest of all the suspects involved.
“We can no longer accept or tolerate this spare of Insecurity. Izzi LGA is peaceful and we intend to sustain that peace for the well-being of our people.”
Contacted, the Police spokesperson of Ebonyi State Police Command, SP Chris Anyanwu said his office was yet to notify him about the ugly incident.
“I believe the signal will come in tomorrow.”
