Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu state has been locked in a closed door meeting with the heads of security agencies in the state.
This meeting may not be unconnected with the spate of violent crimes in the hitherto calm and serene Coal City, viewed as about the safest place in the country.
In a short spell of time, there have been three high profile murders of highly placed persons in the state as well as rising cases of uncommon armed banditry.
First was the case of a retired judge, Stanley Nnaji, the late CEO of an Enugu Carbody and Painting Company, Auto Ease and on Wednesday, the gruesome shooting and killing of homebound Managing Director of the Science Equipment Development Institute, SEDI, Professor Sam Ndubuisi and his police escort by unidentified persons who operated with a Hilux van mounted with siren and beacon and sounded alien by the way they spoke during the operation.
Governor Ugwuanyi, had after the closed-door meeting with heads of security agencies in the state at the Government House, Enugu, on Thursday, proceeded with the security chiefs to some forests and escape routes of the yet-to-be-identified gunmen, across four local government areas, where they took on-the-spot far-reaching decisions aimed at tackling the challenges squarely.
