In a statement on Monday by the convener, Dr. Laz Ude Eze, the group also condemned the killings that have been reported in Abakaliki and other parts of the state in the past couple of months, including the recent killing of three policemen in Onueke Ezza.

“We note that the primary responsibility of government is to protect lives and properties, therefore, the Ebonyi State government must live up to this responsibility and stop future waste of precious lives.

“We commend the Nigerian Police and the Ebonyi State Government for the swift arrest of suspects in relation to the Effium killings. We demand that they should be thoroughly investigated and those found guilty must be punished accordingly.

“We warn political actors not to politicise security issues as it will not be in the best interest of the state.

“We demand justice for all victims of the killings and destructions.

“We also demand a quick resolution of all the underlying causes of the killings in the state and achieve a sustainable peace, maka oganihu Ebonyi State.”
