www.odogwublog.com reports that following the
division in Awka community over who is the authentic traditional ruler between
Obi Dr Gibson Nwosu and his former traditional Prime minister, now later day
challenger Igwe Austin Ndigwe, Uzu Awka, the State Commissioner of Police, Mr.
Garba Umar has given a nod to Ezeuzu.
For leading security chiefs on a courtesy call, Umar
has endorsed Ezeuzu against Uzu Awka and that’s what Ezeuzu needs now.
Umar said the command will continue to work with the
traditional institution in the state to promote peace, law and order.
Commissioner, Garba was received at the palace by the
members of the Igwe Cabinet and other titled men, led by the Prime Minister of
Awka, Chief Benjamin Okoye.
Police Commissioner Umar noted that he has worked
closely with the traditional ruler adding that the synergy has brought stronger
resolve in crime fighting.
He used the opportunity to warn those who go contrary
to the law by parading themselves as traditional rulers in whatever guise to
retrace their steps as the laws are clear on selection and certification of
traditional rulers.
CP Garba further warned the IPOB members against
forcing members of the public from going about their lawful businesses under
seat at home order, as the command is mobilized against those who want to
disturb public peace.
Obi Gibson Nwosu while receiving the delegation
commended the command for its doggedness in fighting crime in the state,
especially nipping kidnapping in the bud, as well as the Command's ability to
decisively tackle issues of cultism, making Anambra state the safest state in
the country.
He reiterated the support of the traditional
institution in fighting crime and criminality in the state, especially in Awka
capital city.
Also speaking the traditional Prime Minister, Chief
Okoye thanked the Commissioner for his visit, and good works, adding that the
community is always ready to collaborate with security agencies.
