Governor Mbah Hunts for Killers of OMMATA Chairman
I have directed security agencies in the state to produce his killers within 48 hours
The Governor of Enugu State, Dr. Peter Mbah, on Sunday, ordered security agencies in the state to fish out the killers of the Chairman of Ogbete Main Market Traders Association, OMMATA, Chief Stephen Aniagu.
Aniagu was gunned down by yet to be identified assailants at the outskirts of Enugu metropolis, Saturday evening.
Reacting to the development on Sunday, Mbah swore that no one would commit such heinous crime in the state under his watch and go scot-free.
Mbah also commiserated with the deceased’s familyQQQK and OMMATA.
“My heart grieves over the brutal murder of the Chairman of OMMATA, the late Chief Stephen Aniagu. This is a sad loss, not only to OMATTA as a body, but also to the entire state.
“In the meantime, I have directed security agencies in the state to produce his killers within 48 hours.
As we have always maintained, and every merchant of death or criminal in the state ought to know by now, that we have demonstrated the capacity to bring them to book. We have the will, technology, and resources to pursue, track down, overtake, and defeat such workers of wickedness.
“Therefore, those who committed this atrocity have bitten more than they can chew.
They have murdered sleep, hence neither they nor the government and security agencies will sleep until all the perpetrators are captured and justice served in accordance with the law sooner than later.”
