Coalition of South East Professionals Network in Nigeria and Diaspora , Igbo professionals has condemned the attack on soldiers and police operatives in Orlu, Imo State, by persons operating in the name of Eastern Security Network , saying the development must not be allowed to go unchecked. It’s a known fact that sovereign nation will allow armed security groups to operate without necessary approvals and legal backing.
Specifically, the group accused Kanu of not having the interest of the South East at heart, wondering why a true Igbo son will be working at cross-purposes with a region struggling to assume national reckoning. While clarifying that they were not against the establishment of any group that would complement law enforcement organisations in the South East, the professionals, nonetheless, warned that such efforts must satisfy due process requirements.
“Our investigation has revealed that men of the ESN carried out the provocative ambush attack with sophisticated weapons and other dangerous objects. “While we are in total support of a regional security outfit owing to the current security failure of the government we must do that within the ambit of the law so that they are properly regulated to avoid criminal elements hijacking the outfit.
