Over 100 women between 50 and 80 years of age from Agubia Community
\nin Ikwo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State stripped naked, in protest
\n of the arrest of their children by security agents operating in the
\nstate.<\/p>\n
The women stormed the Government House gate at about 11 am on Monday,
\n demanding the immediate release of their sons who were allegedly
\narrested by police following the crises that erupted in Agubia Ikwo
\nrecently.<\/p>\n
However, the women whose intention was to meet with the governor,
\ncould not gain entrance into the government house in Abakiliki.<\/p>\n
It was gathered that a bloody clash had erupted between two rival
\ngroups four weeks ago over which group should control a popularly motor
\npark in the community. The incident claimed many lives and left dozens
\nwounded while property worth millions of naira were destroyed.<\/p>\n
Mrs Mercy Nwali, who spoke on behalf of the women, said the crux of
\nthe protest was to demand urgent and amicable resolution of the matter
\nas their lives and that of their family members had been in danger.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we demand is that all of them should come home so that we make
\npeace. They shouldn\u2019t be in town here and be terrorizing us in the
\nvillage. We no longer sleep in our homes and we want government to
\nintervene\u201d, she explained.<\/p>\n
Another aged woman, Mrs Juliana Nwali, told Daily Trust that three of
\n her children; Mr. Igwe Nwali, Chikwendu and Chineme were among those in
\n detention.<\/p>\n
It took the intervention of the State Commissioner for Internal
\nSecurity and Border Peace and Conflict Resolution, Hon. Stanley Okoro to
\n pacify the women to vacate the government house gate.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know, you are our mothers. Our Governor was not happy to see you
\n in this way and mood. So, whatever is the problem, I assure you, it
\nwill be resolved not later than today,\u201d said Hon. Emegha, who cut short
\nhis 2020 fiscal year budget defense at the state House of Assembly to
\nrush to the scene.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we want is peace. We are tired of running away from our home.
\nWe want the governor to help us, release our children from detention\u201d
\nthe protesting women cried.<\/p>\n
The commissioner assured them that government will ensure that their demand are given immediate attention.<\/p>\n
He urged them to go home and be assured that government is determined to returning permanent peace in the area.<\/p>\n
However, the women bluntly refused to collect money released to them nor enter the bus provided by the government to convey them back to Agubia Community.<\/p>\n
