The executive governor of Anambra state, Charles Soludo has reacted to the death of a member representing his constituency, Hon Okechukwu Okoye.
This is coming after it was reported that the death of the lawmaker whose head was severed was confirmed by the state police command.
Following the demise of Okoye who was killed alongside his aide identified as Cyril Chiegboka, the governor made it known that their death will never be in vain as he vows to make sure the perpetrators are prosecuted.
Soludo also laments the increase in criminal activities in the state which he claims must be stamped out of the land.
In his full words, the governor said;
These are my brothers!
Hon. Okechukwu Okoye (Okey dị okay) and Cyril Chiegboka were murdered in the most gruesome manner. No human being should ever have to experience death in that way.
For no just reason, rampaging criminals have elected to desecrate our land with the blood of the innocent.
This is a test of our resolve, and we are more emboldened than cowed that this criminality must be stamped out of our land.
Ụmụnnem Ndị Anambra, this is not who we are. The party is over, and every community must brace up to join forces with government in this war to reclaim our homeland.
Okey and Cyril will NEVER die in vain.
May God console their young families, the people of Isuofia and ndị Anambra. May their souls and all others who have lost their lives in the hands of these criminals continue to rest in peace.
We have placed a ten million Naira (10,000,000) bounty for anyone with useful information. This war is one that Anambra must win!
CC. Soludo, CFR.
