Ebubeagu Gathering Intelligence From Forest, When Last Did You Hear Of Any Attack? – Ikpeazu’s Aide Ememanka Fires Critics

Chief Press Secretary to Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, Sir Onyebuchi Ememanka has challenged people of the State, especially critics of government to recollect when last they heard about any attack by Fulani herdsmen in the State.

This was in response to allegations that Ebubeagu, a security outfit launched by the Southeast governors is not effective, especially in Abia.

The governor’s aide in a Facebook post seen by ABN TV insisted that the security outfit is effective and working in the state.

He said Ebubeagu operatives are in the forest gathering intelligence, insisting that their activities are responsible for a perceived reduction in the frequency of attacks by Fulani herdsmen.

He posted, “Some people are asking if there is EBUBEAGU in Abia State.

“My response is simple…

“When last did you hear of any attack of Fulani herdsmen in Abia State?

“When last did you hear of any form of kidnap by Fulani herdsmen in Abia State?

“You think these things happened by chance?

“EBUBEAGU in Abia State is very much at work and is more involved in intelligence gathering and nipping crimes in the bud. They don’t have any uniforms. But they are everywhere, especially in our bushes and farms.

“OK, if you want to confirm if our EBUBEAGU is working, carry a herd of Cattle, dress like a Fulani man and enter farms and bushes in Abia State.

“Then you will know if there is EBUBEAGU or not.

“Remember that EBUBEAGU was set up principally to deal with the menace of Fulani herdsmen.”

On Saturday, the management of Marist Comprehensive Academy, Uturu announced an attack on their students who were returning from a religious function by suspected Fulani herdsmen.

Following the attack, one of the students, Ede Donald lost his life while three others were hospitalised.

In the early hours of Monday, an unspecified number of gunmen attacked passengers traveling along Ohafia/Umuahia expressway, in Abia State and injured a number of them.

ABN TV reported that passengers were traveling from Ohafia to Umuahia when the incident happened around the popular Ugwu Rubber, near Igbere in Bende local government area.
