Abia State government says it is committed to ending the kidnapping of students along the ABSU – Uturu road.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
Over 10 students of the state university have lost their lives due to the activities of hoodlums who kidnap them for ransom on the road from the Okigwe, Imo state boundary to Uturu.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Commissioner for Information, Abia State, Mr. Eze Chikamnayo, who stated this while reacting to the last week’s abduction of some ABSU students, disclosed that Governor Okezie Ikpeazu is saddened by the development and would leave no stone unturned to ensure normalcy is returned on the ABSU – Uturu route.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Government has been informed of yet another incident of senseless\u00a0 kidnapping and unfortunate death of innocent citizens especially students around\u00a0 the ABSU\u00a0 – Uturu – Okigwe axis\u00a0 and Umunneochi\u00a0 – Ihube area occasioned by the criminal activities of terrorists.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Governor Okezie Ikpeazu is a very proactive,\u00a0 security conscious leader who over the years has proven through visible results that the safety and welfare of all Abians and Nigerians is his topmost priority.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“We, as a Government, are saddened by this ugly development around our boundaries with Imo State and are leaving no stone unturned to ensure that normalcy is quickly restored.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“However,\u00a0 we may not for operational reasons be able to go into further details at this time so as to safeguard the processes already put in place by our hardworking security agencies and government authorities.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The government assured residents of the state of his commitment in ending the menace of kidnapping in the area.”<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
