“His Highness mourns the gallant security personnel whose life was cut short brutally; mourns the kidnapping of yet another high-profile son of Isuofia, Emeka Ezenwanne; mourns the desecration of the common heritage of our people. Ezumezu Isuofia mourns the bad intentions of the contrivers of this attack on our son, Prof. Soludo.
“While His Highness condoles with Prof. Soludo on the bad confrontation, he encourages the incoming governor to be unwavering in his pursuits as the land of Isuofia has appended her blessings and approval.
“He enjoins the police to intensify manhunt for the perpetrators and be thorough and honest in the investigation of the sad event.
“His Highness will soon invite the Executive Council of Isuofia People’s Assembly, the Isuofia Women Council and the relevant institutions to embark on the cleansing of the temple of our fathers, The Civic Centre,” the statement concluded.
