Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has said he will disclose the names of those sponsoring insecurity in the state.
He made this known on Saturday while addressing elected officials of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He stated that they have started to arrest all the people that were hired to kill Imolites. He said that recently, 18 suspects have been arrested and some of them have confessed those bankrolling them.
The governor said that they have got evidence and account details of those bankrolling the suspects.
He also stated that he will call out the names of those involved in the killings when he will address Imo stakeholders on January 3.
In recent times, the south-east has witnessed increased attacks with Imo being one of the hardest-hit states.
It will also be recalled that in May, the governor had said those sponsoring violence in the state will soon be exposed, while also blaming the attacks of politicians who are not happy with his progress in the state.
Uzodimma has also determined that his administration will use all lawful means to crush criminals in the state.
