Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo, on Sunday revealed the identity of gunmen terrorising parts of the state, saying all of those caught so far are Ìgbò people.
Soludo said: “Let me be clear about it; 100 per cent of the people we have caught are Igbos. It is not about some people invading from somewhere; it is 100 per cent Igbos on Igbos, that is the fact,” the governor said.
“The first set of people we caught were 100 per cent Igbos from other south-east states and none from Anambra.
“But as we went on, we then discovered that a whole lot of the youths who have been taken to these bushes that got indoctrinated and initiated into all these kinds of things also happen to be citizens of Anambra state or indigenes of Anambra.”
Soludo also said that the security situation in Anambra has greatly improved since he became governor, attributing the feat to the efforts of the security forces.
“Giving where things were when we came; we are not saying that Anambra is 100 per cent secured, but everybody in Anambra, the 8.5 million residents of Anambra, can testify to you that insecurity in Anambra has come down to the barest minimum.
“Fifteen camps (run by gunmen) here (have been) decimated. Even yesterday (Saturday), some other places (where) they were gathering were decimated; we have degraded their infrastructure and I don’t think they have the capacity again to come with the kind of ferocity they had in the past,” he added.
