The LG Boss who condemned in strong terms the wanton destruction of valuable properties belonging to some major political stakeholders of the area especially members of the All Progressives Congress APC by the suspected thugs described the protests as uncalled for.

LEADERSHIP Friday gathered that the riot which threw the community into panic and apprehension was staged by over 100 women and girls over alleged incessant kidnapping, rape attacks and other criminal activities by suspected herdsmen in the area.

Ajah who inaugurated the 9-man committee, at the council headquarters, charged them to unravel the causes of the riot and the attendant destruction of valuable properties belonging to prominent people in the community.

He also tasked the committee to look into the power tussle that has rocked the Ishiagu community development union, ICDU, which according to him, has affected the political and economic existence of the community.
