Anambra State Government has been charged to take firm stance against members of local security outfit, known as Udogachi, abusing and molesting innocent people in the stateThe governorship candidate of the Young People’s Party, YPP, in the November 8 election in Anambra Stare, Sir Paul Chukwuma, gave the advice in a release he personally signed, while reacting to a trending social media where operatives of Agunechemba were seen assaulting a female youth corper in Oba, Idemili South LGA.Sir Paul condemned, in its entirety, the beating up and stripping the female youth corps member in Oba, Idemili South LGA by operatives of Agunechemba.The YPP governorship candidate said he watched the video of the assault on the lady by members of Udogachi, a security outfit under the control of the Anambra State Government.He observed that the lady whose identity has been ascertained as Ms. Jennifer Elobor, a corps member serving in Oba, Idemili South LGA, Anambra state, was beaten to a pulp and stripped naked by several operatives of Udogachi. The governorship hopeful also noted that similar barbaric behaviour, like the strange abuse of this lady by members of Udogachi security outfit, has continued to be meted out to unsuspecting members of the public in the State, to the chagrin of all sane minds.Sir Paul Chukwuma expressed with dismay, “I am appalled by this absurdity, which has, unfortunately, become the daily experience of Ndi Anambra who are held hostage in their homeland by a security outfit set up to protect them. Notwithstanding, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, the Governor of Anambra State, has never deemed it necessary to call these people to order. The government’s carefree attitude has further exacerbated the abuse by this setup, always in the news for extorting Ndi Anambra, killing them, or abusing them. Yet, the insecurity in Anambra State has continued to escalate with no clear end in sight.”This particular incident must not be swept under the carpet, like the ones before it. I am calling on the Government of Anambra State to take a firm stance against these public abusers and bring them to justice. I also call on the security agencies to ensure that these abusers are not only rounded up, but are compelled to face the law,” the release concluded.
