The recent massacre in Amagu village, Ishielu Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, allegedly carried out by Fulani herdsmen, is yet another grim reminder of the unchecked wave of violence plaguing our communities. This senseless bloodshed is both tragic and unacceptable. I strongly and unequivocally condemn this barbaric act and demand an immediate and thorough investigation to ensure that the perpetrators are swiftly identified and brought to justice.

The sanctity of human life must never be compromised. The security of lives and properties should remain a top priority for all levels of government. It is imperative that law enforcement agencies act decisively to prevent further attacks and dismantle the networks enabling such atrocities.

Once again, I urge the Governors of the South East to take bold and proactive steps to curb these recurring assaults on our people. They must explore and implement all necessary security strategies to fulfill their constitutional duty of protecting the lives and properties of their citizens. Inaction is no longer an option – our people deserve to live in peace and security.

Enough is Enough!
