The assault on traditional institutions in Imo State have continued unabated as another traditional ruler was whisked away on Wednesday.
The traditional ruler of Umuezeala-Ama Autonomous Community in Ehime Mbano Local Government Area, Eze Aloysius Igwe, was abducted from his community.

A source said the monarch went out to pick his wife from a meeting around the area.
While waiting for his wife, his abductors, who came in a small bus, double-crossed his vehicle and whisked him away in it.
