The Honorable member representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, has opined on how insecurity rampaging Anambra State in the South east region, can be put to a halt.
The senator who is also a flag bearer for the November 6, 2021 gubernatorial election in the state, said; “if the Federal Government finds a political solution to the Nnamdi Kanu issue, the present insecurity in Anambra State will come to an abrupt end as the politically sponsored bandits killing people under this guise will have no further excuse at their disposal.”
According to a statement released in Abuja on Thursday, by Kamen Ogbonna, media aide to the senator, he said this during a stakeholders’ meeting in Lagos as part of his sensitization and engagement with Anambra indigenes in the state.
The statement titled, ‘Senator Ubah calls on Federal Government to review arrest, detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’ read in parts;
“In the course of the conversation, some youth leaders used the opportunity of the visit to express their sadness to the Senator over the raging issue of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s detention and pleaded with Ubah to intervene in the matter.
“The Senator in his response assured them that there are ongoing efforts behind the scene to find a political solution to the problem.
“He also promised to relay their message to the Federal Government with regards to the need to review the case and to treat the issue as vital especially since some opposition party players had cashed in on that, to create artificial insecurity in Anambra State and trigger voter apathy in the process as a cover for writing results illegally.
“It is our firm belief that this burning issue should not in any way be politicised, but rather should be given the due attention that it requires.
“We strongly believe that if the Federal Government finds a political solution to the Nnamdi Kanu issue, the present insecurity in Anambra State will come to an abrupt end as the politically sponsored bandits killing people under this guise will have no further excuse at their disposal.”
