The Eze-elect who was said to be the Chairman of Odinma Orsu Initiative (OOI), an apex socio-cultural group, narrated his ordeal to journalists in Owerri.
“Hoodlums attacked my home on Saturday night, looted valuables worth millions of naira, and set it ablaze. I have nothing left for me. This is my most tragic moment. I am speechless. I only call on the government of Imo state and the security agencies in the state to intervene,” he said.
The Eze-elect, according to reports, had been at the forefront of the battle against insecurity in the LGA using his Odinma Orsu Initiative to advocate for ceasefire and peace in the LGA.
He had earlier initiated an amnesty programme from the state government where a few gunmen were said to have surrendered their arms.
He regretted the sudden rise in insecurity in the state when he thought the tide had decreased.
“Odinma Orsu Initiative has been fighting against the incessant killings, kidnappings, arsons, and all manners of extra-judicial activities in the state.”
