An Assistant Inspector General of Police (Retd), Mr. Charles Ugomuoh,has called on the government to ban the South East security outfit, Ebubeagu.
The AIG challenged the South East governors, to stand firm and condemn the activities of Ebubeagu to prove that they were not involved in the violence the security outfit were committing.
Ugomuoh, who is the Labour Party (LP) South East National security coordinator, called on perpetrators of violence in the region to shield their swords in the interest of brotherhood; peace ,and to prevent the region from being disenfranchised in the 2023 General Elections.
Ugomouh , who is also, the LP Governorship Candidate in Imo State,at a press briefing in Abuja , yesterday, Said: “The advent of Ebubeagu, has brought untold hardship to the people of the region, especially in Imo, and Ebony states, where violence and terrorist actions are now pervasive.

“The Inspector- General of Police, must put a stop to the violence ,and put measures on the ground to secure the people of the region as the General Elections approaches for free, fair, and credible elections to take place.

“We wish to call on all the security agencies, especially the Police, and Department of State Service (DSS), to be alive to their duties and responsibilities in the areas of securing life and property of the people of the region.
“The people of south- East are called upon to resist this bare faced intimidation ,and unwarranted violence and troop out on election day to vote.
