Uche Onyeagocha, the Peoples Democratic Party’s senatorial candidate for Imo East senatorial district, said on Wednesday that the ongoing bloodletting in Imo state should stop.
Onyeagocha made the remarks to reporters in Owerri while condemning the beheading of Christopher Ohizu, the sole administrator of Imo State’s Ideato North local government area, by unidentified gunmen last Monday.
He attributed the insecurity to the state government’s unconcerned and complacent behavior. However, he urged the state government to assume full responsibility for the protection of the state’s people’s lives and property.
“The PDP Candidate for Imo East Senatorial District, Hon. Barr Uche Onyeagocha expresses deep empathy and rude shock over the recent killing of Ideato North Sole Administrator, Chief Chris Ohizu, describing the tragic incident as horrifying and heartbreaking,” Onyeagocha said in a statement issued through his Special Assistant on Media, MacDonald Enwere.
“Hon. Onyeagocha strongly condemns the continued bloodshed in the state and urges the people of the state to always respect the dignity and sanctity of human life.”
“As a result, we demand that Linda Ikeji and her business partners, including Netflix, FilmOne Entertainment Company, and others, immediately retract and suspend any further actions, including the premiere scheduled for February 3, 2023, and any other date pending and subject to consultations and express consent of the affected families who are at the receiving end of the entire assault,” the statement says.
