-- Commiserates with family of Killed Police officer
The Regent of Oba, Prince Noel Ezenwa (Ichie Ezeama) has condemned in its entirety the unfortunate incident that took place on the early hours of Tuesday September 3, 2024 when the police station and Civic Center Oba, Idemili South LGA, Anambra State were set on fire by unknown persons.
In a press release dated 5th
September 2024 and signed by the Regent, Prince Noel Ezenwa called on Oba
people to remain calm and restrain from casting unfounded aspersions on members
of Oba community saying that Oba leadership and security agencies are working
tirelessly to track down the perpetrators.
Prince Ezenwa also commiserated
with the family of the Late police officer also known as Clement by neighbors
who lost his life during the dastardly attack on Oba community property.
According to him, my attention
has been drawn to the very ugly and unfortunate incident that took place in our
beloved hometown on the early hours of Tuesday September 3rd 2024 when the
police station and Civic Center were set on fire.
"My heart goes out to the
family of the police officer on active duty protecting our hometown, who was
the sole victim of the attack.
"While we have heard of
attacks on security personnel on patrol, government facilities and property by
unknown persons, the attack on the people's property realized through self-help
efforts is a new dimension to these kinds of attacks. This incident is utterly
condemnable, heinous and abominable.
"Be as it may, I call on
everyone to guide their utterances casting aspersions on members of our
community to remain calm as the leadership and security agencies do all they
can to unravel the cause of the fire and the people responsible for it, in
order to forestall a future occurrence.
"I want to personally
appreciate everyone who made efforts towards stopping the raging fire by
inviting several water tanker operators who worked tirelessly to douse the
raging flames, Dalunu!
"We will take stock of our
losses and damages to update our people and also re-evaluate our security
infrastructure.
"We have no other hometown
to call our own and must all work together as one to ensure the safety of lives
and property in our hometown. God is always on our side and we shall rise from
these challenges," Ezenwa said.
