…Denounces abduction, warns politicians against exploiting his ordeal

The Imo State Government assures the public that it is doing everything within its power to secure the safe release of Hon. Ngozi Ogbu, who was abducted a week ago.

The government condemns in the strongest terms the brazen and lawless act that led to the abduction of Hon. Ngozi Ogbu, a former Chairman of Okigwe Local Government and former member of the Imo State House of Assembly.

In concert with security agencies, the government has activated all necessary mechanisms to ensure his prompt and safe return.

While these efforts are ongoing, the government urges politicians, especially those who have in the past fanned the flames of insecurity in the state, to desist from making political capital out of Hon. Ogbu’s ordeal. Such comments or actions not only trivialise his suffering but could further endanger his life.

The politicisation of a matter involving the life of a husband, father, and fellow citizen is, to say the least, deeply unconscionable.

The Imo State Government reiterates its unwavering commitment to the protection of lives and property and will continue to work tirelessly to keep Imo safe.

Hon. Declan Emelumba.

Commissioner for Information, Public Orientation and Strategy
