The Tinubu Support Group (TSG), Abia State Chapter, has called on the Deputy Governor of Abia State, Engr. Ikechukwu Emetu, to learn from the peaceful disposition of his boss, Governor Alex Otti, and stop recruiting IPOB members and criminals ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The Tinubu Support Group has called on security agencies to investigate Emetu over the return of IPOB to some parts of Abia State. The group accused Emetu of being behind the group for the hatchet job of causing crisis in some parts of Abia State in 2027, especially in Aba, Abia Central, and Abia North communities like Bende Town, Abiriba, Uzuakoli, Ohafia, Abam, Nkporo, Ihechiowa, and the Isikwuato axis.
The group said if Emetu denies it, it would name his cohorts and those working with him to set Abia State on fire.
They accused Emetu of using a similar squad to cause chaos in his Ohafia community, especially in Okon-Aku, where a youth leader was gruesomely murdered.
The group said Emetu’s actions have caused panic in some communities, with community leaders afraid to speak up.
It called on security agencies to investigate the actions of Emetu and his recruitment of the proscribed IPOB group to harass dissenting voices.
TSG maintained that Abia State must not be turned into a theatre of political violence ahead of the 2027 general elections, stressing that the lives and security of innocent residents must never be sacrificed on the altar of political ambition.
The group further urged security agencies to act decisively, investigate the individuals identified in its complaints and ensure that anyone found to have participated in criminal activities is brought to justice in accordance with the law.
