The call came following an attack on the personnel by gunmen at a military checkpoint last week, which led to a huge exchange of gunfire, causing injuries on many and deaths.
Maduagwu among other reasons said the location of the army checkpoint in the community is the busy Agulu town hall, stating that exchange of gunfire in such area could lead to heavy civilian casualties. Parts of the letter read: “It is important that I draw your attention to the danger posed by the military checkpoint at the heart of Agulu town, in Anaocha LGA of Anambra State. This checkpoint is situated directly in front of Agulu Unity hall which attracts heavy human and vehicular traffic with thriving commercial activities around the vicinity.
“This would minimize civilian casualties in the case of attacks, and the soldiers would be properly positioned to repel such attack without fear of hitting civilians in the crossfire.”
