    By: Awajis Josiah-Chijindu          


The chairman of Andoni local government area in Rivers State Mr. Lucky Otuo has been urged to relax the curfew at the Andoni mainland and put in place more strategic security measures to end the cult activities and killings in the Area.

President, Agana Youth Assembly Comrade Obadiah Ignatius made this call in an interview with Radio Nigeria.

The Youth President while commending the Chairman for the placement of curfew to check insecurity and continuous breakdown of law and order, however noted that the ongoing curfew cannot serve the interest of the people as  socio-cultural life and business have crumbled in the affected communities.

'' It is also necessary to state, nonetheless, that the ongoing curfew of one month should be revisited, reviewed and possibly called off while devising possible and lasting solutions to the security issues rocking our people."

Comrade Ignatius appealed to the chairman to provide security outposts at Illotombi, Oyorokoto, Muma, Agwut-Obolo and other communities facing security challenges in the area.


He enjoined the council Boss to proffer lasting solutions to the incessant killings and restiveness in the Area.

The Youth President added that for over a month, the people of Andoni Island 1 have consistently suffered from unwarranted killings and Insecurity, occasioned by alleged cult related activities which resumed in the area after about four years of relative peace and calmness.
