Youths of Umuatulu Ifiteani village, Enugwu-Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area have called on Anambra State government to direct the operatives of Operation Udo Ga-Chi to investigate the activities of one of their kinsman who they are fingering of complicity in different crimes in the community

They made the appeal during a peaceful protest at the palace of the traditional ruler of the town, Igwe Ralph Ekpeh.

The protesters had different inscriptions: “We want peace in Umuatulu”; “Stop harassing our people”; “Ebele Ngini removed all CCTV cameras in the village”; “Ebele Ngini is a terror to our community”; among others.

The leader of the group, Barr. Ralph Okonkwo fingered one Mr Ebele Ngini for overthrowing the leadership of the village in June, 2024; unlawfully collecting the firearms of the vigilante and uninstalling all CCTV cameras mounted in the community.

The youth leader of the village, Mr. Onyebuchi Okeke also alleged that the said individual constantly harass women, youths, and elderly people and called on the state government to quickly intervene.

Responding, Igwe Ekpeh recalled that there has been an investigation and recommendation made into the activities of Mr. Ngini and acknowledged that Mr. Ngini has always been an individual of questionable character and assured that the law will take it right cause.
