OTTI VISITS FAMILIES OF SLAIN POLICEMEN IN ABA
Governor Alex Otti of Abia has commiserated with the families of the two policemen who were killed by suspected hoodlums at Opobo Road in Aba on Friday.
Speaking with newsmen shortly after visiting the bereaved families as well as the wounded policemen in their hospital beds, Otti described the incident as unfortunate.
He vowed to smoke out the perpetrators of the heinous crime and expressed dismay that the attack took place a few weeks after five soldiers were shot and killed in Obikabia Junction of the same state.
The governor said that the State Government would change its strategy in dealing with the issue and would not let the incident go away without identifying and bringing all those who were directly or remotely involved to book.
He assured the people that his administration remained focused on rebuilding the state and would not succumb to any form of blackmail.
He urged the residents to go about their lawful businesses, as security agencies would continue to intensify their efforts to ensure that the state remains safe and secured.
