The communique below 👇 

COMMUNIQUÉ
Issued by the Igwuruta Community Youth 
Date: 12 February 2026.

The Igwuruta community is deeply saddened and outraged by the tragic murder of our son, Nchelem Samuel Festus who was the Secretary of Omuolu-Omunwei Community in Igwuruta, who was killed on 10th of  February, 2026 by Aboki bike riders within our own land. This heinous act, along with the ongoing rapes, kidnappings, and other criminal activities perpetrated by these same individuals, has shattered the peace and hospitality that Igwuruta has long been known for.

Igwuruta has always been a welcoming and peaceful community, where residents and visitors alike live and conduct business without fear. However, recent provocations and escalating violence by these criminal elements have made it clear that immediate action is required to protect our people and restore safety.

Therefore, as a peace‑loving community, we hereby make the following demands:

1. Immediate stopping of all Aboki bike‑rider operations within Igwuruta.
2. Closure of every scrap‑dump site in Igwuruta that is operated by these individuals.
3. Prompt arrest and prosecution of all Aboki bike riders involved in the murder of Nchelem Samuel Festus and any other crimes committed against our people.
4. All cattle herders must vacate our farmlands, and all herdsmen must stay away from our bushes with immediate effect.

We are committed to upholding the rule of law and will not resort to self‑help. Nevertheless, we expect the relevant security agencies to act decisively on demands 1 and 2 within 48 hours of this communiqué. Failure to do so will compel the community to take necessary measures to safeguard our lives and property.

We call on all security agencies, local government authorities, and concerned stakeholders to treat this matter with the urgency it deserves and to work with us in restoring peace and justice to Igwuruta.

Signed:
Igwuruta Community Youth
