The apex Igbo Socio-cultural body, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has expressed disenchantment over alleged inability of the Security operatives to arrest perpetrators behind the murder of the Enugu Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr. Paul Offu.

The group has also asked the Federal Government to include the Southeast in the proposed plan to deploy drones to monitor insecurity in the Southwest.

Rev. Offu who was killed by yet to be identified gunmen, suspected to be armed herdsmen, lost his life while travelling on Ihe-Agbudu Road in Awgu Local Government Area of the State in the evening of Thursday, Aug. 1.

Ohanaeze, in a statement on Wednesday morning, raised questions such as, “Are they ( killers) spirits or small gods? These killers have flesh and blood and are not beyond the searchlight of the security agents once they want to do their job”.

The group said it was greatly touched by the brutal murder of a Catholic priest in Enugu and wondered why the perpetrators of the act are yet to be arrested.

The Igbo body suggested ways to end insecurity in the country, including punishment of perpetrators as a deterrence to others.

Ohanaeze lauded the initiative to use drone and CCTV to secure the South West by President Muhammed Buhari, but advised the South East and all parts of the country to be included in the security measure.

The highest Igbo Organization, however, maintained its call for the implementation of 2014 National Confab reports, asserting that without that, Nigeria would continue to be beating around the bush in search of solutions to her problems
