 Imo is a no go area for trouble makers. We are not alone, we are collaborating with all the security Agencies to ensure that Imo witnesses a high free Salah celebration,” The CP explained.

 The Police boss added that Nigeria is one and every tribe must work for the unity of the country.

 He said, “Police are aware that there is apprehension, not only in South East but in Nigeria because of the quit notice and the responses, but we must be our brothers’ keepers. Our Muslim brothers are safe and secured in Imo State. As policemen, we will protect them and secure that they enjoy the celebration,” Ezike added.
