Following the early morning fresh attack at Akagwe-Ugwu community
in Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State, on Thursday, the Deputy
Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu has condemned the onslaught, reports ITRealms.
This attack, ITRealms also gathered left scores including a
seminarian dead according to an eye-witness.
Ekweremadu, in a
press statement made available to ITRealms, decried the never-ending attacks on
parts of the country, especially in the South East by suspected herdsmen,
saying they pose a grave threat to the peace, security, and economy of the
country.
Also he called on the Federal Government (FG) to restraint the
trend in a decisive manner, declaring “This is another heartbreak, not only for
Enugu State, but the nation in general; and whatever evil forces behind these
reprehensible acts certainly do not wish the country well. It must not be
condoned.”
Ekweremadu equally said the primary object of government is
the welfare and security of the citizens, stressing that the Federal Government
must take decisive steps to put a full stop to this wanton destruction of lives
and property; and the security agencies must do everything humanly possible to
ensure that the perpetrators of this act of wickedness in Akagbe-Ugwu do not go
unpunished.
