Abia state governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu has vowed to deal a bloody nose on kidnappers and other sundry criminals causing the people of the state sleepless nights.
Recall that the governor had consistently maintained that his administration is committed to ensuring the protection of Abians, using the instrumentality of the security forces in the state.
In a tweet on Wednesday, the governor shortly after featuring in a radio programme announced that he will pull down any building used in keeping victims of kidnap in line with the existing laws in the state.

He wrote, “Earlier today, while featuring in a radio programme on Vision Africa 104.1fm Umuahia, I announced that from Monday, February 15, in accordance with the Laws of Abia State, Government will pull down any building used to keep kidnap victims or used as transit point for the movement of kidnap victims. We’ll also pull down buildings where arms, ammunition, or illicit drugs are found.
“These decisions among others have become necessary as part of measures being put in place to keep Abia safe from kidnappers & perpetrators of other violent crimes”.
