Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State, on Tuesday shedded
tears over the destruction of lives and properties in Izombe community of Oguta
Local Government Area of the State.
Uzodinma said he could not hold back his tears on seeing the
dead bodies and properties destroyed in the community.
A clash between the military and a group led by a suspected
Owerri prison escapee, Obele led to the loss of lives and properties in the
community.
Obele was said to have died during the clash, while two other soldiers also lost their lives.
However, Uzodinma, who visited the community to see the
damages, said God would punish those responsible for the incident.
According to Uzodinma: “I am shedding tears. I am shedding
tears because the properties of my brothers and sisters suffered to built were
burnt.
“I would not have been a Senator without the kind of support
I got from Izombe.
“I take Izombe as Omuma, my home town. It is painful that
after all our sufferings, struggle and God answered our prayer, this happened.
“Instead of us continuing to see blessings, we are seeing
obstacles. God will punish those behind all these things happening.”
