Ebonyi State Governor, Francis Nwifuru, yesterday, said he has all the intelligence on the killings in the state and, very soon, all those behind them would be brought to book.
He stated this during a church service at the old Government House, Abakaliki, the state capital.
He explained that the Executive Order banning the use of tinted glasses and unregistered cars in the state was as a result of the rising spate of insecurity.
Nwifuru recalled, with sadness, the killing of four police officers in the state recently while on duty, along Hilltop Road.
The assailants, the governor revealed, came on tinted glass and unregistered vehicles. The governor said it was needless for public officers to mask themselves in tinted vehicles after being elected by the people.
“I wonder why after asking people to vote me, I will turn out to be hiding myself. I remember when I was a speaker, I directed my drivers to remove all the tinted glasses because I didn’t see why I should be hiding. Because of insecurity, people lost hope from going to farm.
“Security should be everyone’s business. As government officials, we must do something. We have all the intelligence about the activities of these hoodlums. And very soon, they will face the music”, he stated.
