Monday, June 10, 2024 -Anambra South Senator, Ifeanyi Ubah has blamed Anambra Governor, Charles Soludo for the inability of music star, Falvour to bury his father in the state.
Recall that Flavour had to relocate his father's burial to Enugu
due to insecurity enveloping his state, Anambra.
Reacting to the development, Ubah apologized to the music star for the
poor security in his part of Anambra, but stated that the interference of the
state governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, was the reason Umunze, Flavour’s
hometown, had remained insecure.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Strategic
Communications, Mr Kamen Chuks Ogbonna, Ubah said: “I apologize to
Chinedu Okoli (Mr Flavour) for missing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to
celebrate the life and time of his father in his hometown.
“I would have secured Orumba and the entire Anambra South senatorial
district if the state government hadn’t stopped my security initiative, despite
its success in the Nnewi Pilot program.
“The state government’s actions have left my constituents vulnerable to
security threats, particularly in areas currently under siege by non-state
actors, which would have been liberated by now. I will continue to advocate for
the security and well-being of my people, despite the obstacles.
“In 2023, I launched the security initiative aimed to provide
comprehensive security coverage for the Anambra South senatorial district.
“Following its success in Nnewi, plans were underway to expand the
programme to Orumba North and South, Aguata, Ihiala, Nnewi South, and Ekwusigo.
However, the state government’s interference halted the initiative’s progress,
introducing politics into security matters and prioritizing the governor’s
second-term bid over the welfare of the people.”
He said Nnewi, where he was able to implement the initiative
without hindrance, is today the safest town in Anambra State.
“We used a combination of artificial intelligence, local
intelligence, walkie-talkies, and 4G High Definition CCTV security networking
systems to achieve this.
“The state government’s actions have left my constituents vulnerable to security threats, particularly in areas currently under siege by non-state actors, which would have been liberated by now. I will continue to advocate for the security and well-being of my people, despite the obstacles,” he said.
