Deploy security to Anambra to curb killings – Azubogu tells NSA
Engr. Chris Emeka Azubogu
The House of Representatives has urged the National Security Adviser (NSA) and other security agencies to deploy all necessary machineries to Anambra State in order to contain the menace of insecurity in the State.
This followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance by Rep Chris Azugbogu (PDP-Anambra) on the floor of the House on Tuesday in Abuja.
In his motion, he noted with grave concern the security breaches that are taking place within Anambra that hitherto was a peaceful state, now turning into a centre of attacks by unknown gunmen.
Azugbogu alleged that no single day passes without a reported case of robbery, abduction and outright killings, adding that the perpetrators had no human conscience in them.
According to him, on Tuesday, Sept. 28, Dr Chike Akunyili, the husband of the late former Director-General of NAFDAC, Prof Dora Akunyili and eight others, were slaughtered at Nkpor, Onitsha in Anambra.
“The next day, the police station in Orumba north was attacked and people were killed,” he said.
