The Senator representing Imo East has written to the Inspector General of Police and Military authorities on the escalating level of insecurity occasioned by violence and killings in Imo State with particular reference to Owerri Zone because of its cosmopolitan nature as the State Capital.
He brought to the attention of the police and military authorities cases of extra judicial killings, abduction and intimidation of constituents by security agents, urging the Security Chiefs to investigate these allegations with a view to bringing the perpetrators to book and to ensure that those who are maintaining law and order keep strictly to the rules of engagement and respect the fundamental rights of citizens.
Senator Onyewuchi also expressed serious concern over the spate of attacks on security agents and government facilities as this he stated is alien to us as a people.
He therefore asked the security agencies to get to the root of the matter.
