Activities in Ekwulobia, Aguata council of Abia State were paralysed yesterday as traders protested the alleged dumping of Boko Haram suspects in the Ekwulobia prisons.
Placard-carrying protesters, including the clergy, high chiefs and women, as early as 7.30am, marched on Ekwulobia to register their grievances.
Security operatives were deployed to maintain law and order.
Chairman of Aguata council, Mr. Tony Umeoji, alleged that the transfer of the Boko Haram prisoners was politically motivated.
He alleged that any attempt to interrupt the development of the Southeast would be suicidal.
“I must tell you that this development will chase intending investors from Anambra State, thereby setting back the wheel of progress of the state.
“It is a situation that calls for concern because of the apprehension and restiveness among the people of Ekwulobia.
“The people are scared and there is a general sense of insecurity. The Ekwulobia prison has a minimum capacity and facility for such high profile inmates.
“The prison is 80-bedded and there are already 133 inmates yet, you are adding another 43; that is too much and unhealthy”, he said.
The lawmaker representing Aguata II in the House of Assembly, Ikem Uzoezie appealed to the authorities concerned and President Muhammadu Buhari to relocate the Boko Haram inmates to a prison with maximum capacity and facility.
He said: “The development calls for concern because the relative peace we have been enjoying has been interrupted”.
He said when the House reconvenes, it would deliberate on the matter.
Last weekend, over 200,000 traders, led by the led by the President of Anambra State Amalgamated Traders Association (ASMATA), Chief Okwudili Ezenwankwo, marched on the streets of Onitsha, Awka and Nnewi to protest the development.

These people dey mad o

To be honest, I will advise Buhari to ask for permission from the authorities of The Guantanamo Bay Prison, so that he can send those terrorists there.

Most world deadliest terrorists around the world are been incarnated there.

Maiden gift to the East.

The north got back the power they yelled for. The Igbo had been their obstacle in overrunning the entire nigeria.
Now they are unleashing their long term plan to achieve this mission.

Resistance is the key!
