”Police Invasion Of Umahi’s Residence An Insult To Ndigbo”-Igbo Youths
A Coalition of South East Youth Leaders has described the invasion of Governor David Umahi’s Abuja residence by the operatives of the Nigerian Police on Monday as an insult to Ndigbo.
Anaedoonline had reported that some group of policemen invaded the governor’s house barely a few days after banning the activities of Fulani Herdsmen in South-East
According to a statement made available to newsmen in Umuahia, signed by the President-General of the group, Chief Goodluck Egwu Ibem, the Coalition described as vicious, the siege of the private residence of a sitting governor with full immunity.
“It is an insult of the highest order to Ndigbo. It appears that it has now become a norm in Nigeria to harass governors of the southern part of the country. Some time ago, the DSS and SSS invaded the Government House of Akwa Ibom State, where the governor lives with his family and now they have decided to harass the dynamic, performing governor of Ebonyi State and Chairman of Southeast Governors Forum in order to spite and insult the intelligence of the Igbo nation,” the group stated.

“The unethical, unconstitutional and vicious coup de main by the police force is because of the southeast governor’s resolution to stop the killings, kidnapping, and maiming of the southeast indigenes by murderous Fulani herdsmen. They want to harass our governors so that they will succumb and allow murderous Fulani herdsmen to come into southeast through our forest to kill, kidnap and maim the people of South East,” the group stated.
