The Igbo National Council (INC) have condemned in strong terms the reckless killing of the indigenes and residents of Ihiagwa and Eziobodo Communities respectively in Owerri West LGA of Imo State on Wednesday 13th May, 2026 by non indigenous commercial motors cycle rider operating in those communities.
The Information reaching the Igbo National Council (INC) indicates that the killings were carried out by non indigenous commercial motors cycle drivers operating in the aforementioned communities who have been making efforts to establish criminal camp in the forests of these communities.
Furthermore, the Igbo National Council (INC) therefore calls on the Traditional Rulers, President Generals (PGs), Vigilantes and Community Youth Leaders of Ihiagwa, Eziobodo, Obibiezena and Nekede communities respectively to quickly set up their Community Transport and Security Community (TSC) with Mandates to Profile, Coordinate and Monitor the identity and operations of all commercial motor cycle operators in these communities.
