Uzodinma Condemns Attack On Obiozor’s Home

Imo State Government has condemned the bombing of the home of the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Prof. George Obiozor, by those it described as political bandits.
In a statement he personally signed, the state governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma, regretted that desperate politicians who believed in violence were yet to sheathe their swords in spite of  repeated appeals to that effect.
Uzodinma described the attack on the country home of Prof. Obiozor as cowardly and  height of desperation.
He said that the government was already working in concert with security agencies to identify and punish the perpetrators.
He decried incessant resorts to violence in settling political differences by some politicians in the state and warned that the government would no longer condone such banditry.
According to him, “The time of those who unleash this kind of mayhem in the state is over. We shall hunt them down to face the full weight of the law”.
Uzodinma wondered why the bandits should attack the home of a man who is not a politician but a statesman working for the good of the entire Igbo race.
He said it was shameful that both the sponsors and perpetrators of the violence deployed their malicious attack on an innocent man.
While commiserating with Prof. Obiozor on the bombing of his home, he assured Imo people that Government would continue to do all within its Constitutional power to protect lives and property in the state.
