Despite the directive by President Mohammadu Buhari that all military checkpoints across the country be removed, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State on Thursday announced the restoration of military checkpoints in the state.

The Abia State number one citizen stressed that he has the backing of the military high command for the restoration of military checkpoints across the state.

This information was contained in a press statement signed by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Godwin Adindu, in Umuahia. The statement quoted the governor as saying that the return of the roadblocks in the State was a proactive measure in tackling the rising cases of kidnapping activities in the state and other criminal activities.

Abia was, for the better parts of 2009 and 2011, besieged by kidnappers until they were flushed out by soldiers.

According to the statement, the State governor consulted with President Muhammadu Buhari, and the General Officer Commanding the 82 Division of the Nigerian Army Enugu before taking the decision.
The statement noted that the military roadblocks would be restored at designated points across the State.

Ikpeazu, who expressed sadness at the cases of insecurity witnessed over the last couple of weeks, promised to stamp out insecurity in the State.
The governor warned criminals to stay away from the State or be ready to face the long arms of the law.
