He said that many have been driven to the bushes while others fled to where they have spent days without their families.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p>While totally condemning Gulak\u2019s brutal murder, Eke appealed to the security agencies to exercise restraints and stop killing innocent people.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, calls from his constituents have reached a crescendo to intervene in their current ordeal in the hands of the security operatives. Eke asked the police and the army to conduct discreet investigation, identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice rather than mass intimidation and killings of his constituents.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p>\u201cWe lost a young man. Until his death owns and operates a Shawarma shop just to make ends meet. He was shot by the army because he could not obey the rules at the checkpoint.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe family has written a petition to the army. We as the people of Ngor Okpala\/Mbaise are not happy about it and as the representative of the people, I want to make it known to the world that we are waiting for the outcome of the petition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the representative of the people, I am giving the army 14 days to respond to the killing of that young man who left a pregnant wife and his two children.
