Umunne m, Ndi Anambra,
It is time for us to stand united and address the insecurity that has devastated our homeland, making it a thing of the past—whether or not Governor Soludo prioritizes it. Under our collective watch, the most critical task at hand is ensuring that Ndi Anambra can once again sleep peacefully, free from fear.
We must move beyond assigning blame—whether to the churches, traditional institutions, or any other group. Coexistence is possible as long as we all operate within the bounds of the law. As our people wisely say, “Nwa mmụọ anaghị agba nwa mmadu; nwa mmadu anaghị agba nwa mmụọ” (Let neither the spiritual nor the human destroy one another). Enough is enough.
To the youth engaged in these harmful activities: I acknowledge the economic challenges you face, but destroying your own communities or life you haven’t created is not the solution. Reports confirm what we already know—both state and non-state actors have turned our region into a battlefield.
I call for immediate action:
1. A state security summit to develop sustainable solutions.
2. Greater accountability from security agencies.
3. Comprehensive youth empowerment programs to address root causes.
4. Organization, strengthening and synergizing of local security structures
5. Setup a “ See Something; Say Something” regime to garner deep intelligence to make criminals to be afraid of their shadows.
This is not about politics—it is about survival. The documented violations of Nigerian criminal law and international humanitarian law require urgent intervention.
No more delays. No more empty promises. The time for decisive action is now.
May God protect Ndi Anambra.
