Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has expressed outrage over what it called near total breakdown of security along the Enugu-Ugwuogo Nike-Nsukka Road.<\/p>\n

The alarm is contained in a statement made available to DAILY POST on Thursday by the National President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike.<\/p>\n

He said it was disheartening that despite the heavy presence of security operatives on the road, including the military and the police, the hoodlums were carrying out their rampaging activities unchallenged.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, kidnappers suspected to be Fulani herdsmen had blocked the road abducting many commuters in the process. Some of the victims are said to be returning students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN.<\/p>\n

Four days later, the criminals are said to be having a smooth operation. Similar operations have been carried out within the same axis consistently for over a month.<\/p>\n

Reacting, Okwu said the development was unacceptable, urging the security agencies to look inwards.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cWe are saddened that the all important Enugu-Ugwuogo Nike-Nsukka Road has now become impassable because of the activities of rampaging Fulani herdsmen.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo day passes by without sad stories from commuters and their loved ones. Just this Sunday, some travellers, including returning students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, were abducted by the gunmen.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we speak, not one of them has been released or rescued by security operatives. The kidnappers are demanding millions of naira.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday again, Thursday, information reaching us indicates that the armed men are back on the same road, and have succeeded in taking hostage many travellers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis calls to question the role of the various security checkpoints mounted on that road, including the Army and the Police. Feelers are alleging that there is internal collaboration between some of them and the hoodlums.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are urging the Army and the Police hierarchy to launch a discreet investigation and find out those providing a safe haven for these criminals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have had enough sorrowful incidents on that road; we have had enough assurances from the police but it has not translated into results.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Igbo group demanded that \u201cevery effort should be made to free all hostages. The perpetrators should also be arrested forthwith and all forms of crimes should be stopped on that road.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe learnt that they operating from Ekwegbe Agu forest. Security agencies should move in there and smoke them out. This is the only way for the security agencies to redeem their image and earn the trust of the people.\u201d<\/p>\n
