Anglican Bishop laments insecurity in Ebonyi community
The Rev. Paul Udogu, the Anglican bishop of Ebonyi State's Afikpo Diocese, denounced violence between groups of people yesterday.

The recent murder and loss of innocent life in the Isu community, Onicha local government area of the state, alarmed the church, according to Udogu.

During his address at the church's sixth synod, the bishop delivered a speech in the church cathedral in Afikpo, Afikpo North local government region of the state.

He mentioned that HRH Ambrose Ogbu, the state's traditional ruler for the Isu people, had been abducted six months prior and hadn't been freed until today.

Udeogu revealed that the community's president general, palace secretary, and a few other notable community members had all been murdered.

“The people of Isu living in serious fear as many people have migrated to safe areas. Nobody can say exactly what is happening at Isu.

“We call upon the David Umahi led Ebonyi State government to use her instruments of power to discover the remote and immediate causes of the Isu trouble and proffer solution to the problem. We also appeal to the perpetrators of this act to lay down their arms and use dialogue to resolve whatever is the problem.

“The Isinkwo- Abaomege crisis is still lingering. We are happy that soldiers are stationed there now. However, there is still need for government to proffer a lasting solution and bring reconciliation between the warring communities of Isinkwo and Abaomege,”he said.
