Shehu stated that the president has ordered the state’s security agencies to investigate the murder incidents and ensure that the perpetrators face the full wrath of the law.

He also acknowledged the Imo State government’s efforts at improving the security situation in the state.

Buhari urged all Imo residents and citizens to support the efforts of state actors and members of the local community to ensure peace and security.
