RT HON BARR KENNEDY IBEH CONDEMNS MURDER OF COLLEGE OF NURSING STUDENT IN OBOWO; CALLS FOR URGENT INVESTIGATION
I join every law-abiding son and daughter of Obowo LGA in calling on the Commissioner of Police and the Director of the Department of State Services, Imo State, to urgently investigate and bring to justice the perpetrator(s) of the gruesome murder of a female student of the College of Nursing Sciences, Umulogho, Obowo LGA.
The body of the deceased, with her neck slit, was found in a pool of blood inside her room in Umulogho community, Obowo LGA.
In a society as civilized as ours, such brazen, barbaric crimes must not be treated with levity. A full-scale investigation should be launched immediately by the security agencies to fish out the daredevil criminals responsible for this dastardly act.
It is important that any good citizen with reasonable suspicion of possible culprits act patriotically and provide information that can aid the investigation.
I urge everyone, even in this grief, to remain calm and promote peace as the law takes its full course.
It is unfortunate that Obowo is in the news for this wrong reason at a time when the Imo State Government has deployed significant funds to provide security infrastructure, equipment, and apparatuses for the preservation of lives and property in our localities.
Let us trust that these criminals will be unveiled and brought to justice shortly.
