SOUTH-EAST GOVERNORS FORUM URGE SECURITY AGENCIES TO ARREST THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MURDER OF ALHAJI AHMED GULAK.

The South-East Governors Forum has urged security agencies to immediately arrest those responsible for the murder of Alhaji Ahmed Gulak, an APC Chieftain.

            This is contained in a statement issued by the Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi today after a virtual meeting of the security situation in the zone.

            The Forum described the murder of Gulak in Owerri, Imo State as a national catastrophe.

            According to the statement, the Forum received with a rude shock the news of the unfortunate death of Alhaji Gulak in the hands of the senseless gunmen.

            They on behalf of the people of South-East condemn the act highly and charged security agencies to immediately deploy their officers and men to arrest the perpetrators and make them face justice and prayed God to grant the deceased rest in eternity.

            The Governors condoled the Gulak’s family, the Adamawa Government and Nigeria in general and assured their fellow Northern Governors of their commitment to unravel all mastermind of the act.

            The Forum urges the public to exercise restraint and allow security agencies continue with their investigations, while assuring that all those involved in the act will be brought to justice.
