Ebonyi State Government Reacts Over Protest By Women

Ebonyi State Government has finally reacted to the protest that rocked the State yesterday by women from Agubia in Ikwo Local Government Area of the State.

Igbere TV had reported that the women protested over the arrest of not less than 9 of their sons by security agents allegedly acting on the order of top state government official from the area.

Igbere TV correspondent who monitored the protest reports that the aged women who gathered in front of the gate of Government House, Abakaliki, around 12noon alleged that there had been incessant arrest in the village.

Meanwhile, in a statement made available to Igbere TV on Monday by the Special Assistant on Media to Governor David Nweze Umahi, Mr. Francis Nwaze said Ebonyi State Government has no business with the cause of the protest.

He noted that the women were only seeking the attention of the state knowing that the Governor is a man who has the People's interest at heart.

He, however, said that Governor Umahi will be communicated on the situation.
