Anambra State Government has called on non-indigens to help curb insecurity in the state by flushing out the bad eggs among them.
The state Commissioner for Information, Dr Law Mefor, who made the call while addressing members of the Association of Non-Indigenes Welfare in Anambra State, who paid him a courtesy visit at his office in Awka, observed that non-indigenes have contributed meaningfully to the growth of the state and equally benefited from Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s inclusive governance in various areas, including security, employment, infrastructure, healthcare, education, youth empowerment, among others.
While explaining that available data shows that majority of the criminals apprehended in the state are non-indigenes, Dr Mefor urged members of the association to do their best in supporting Governor Soludo’s security interventions to rid the state of criminals in order to redeem their image, and further assured that the ministry is willing to partner with them in promoting the good works of the government.
In their separate speeches, the President General, Association of non-indigenes Welfare in Anambra State, Chief Ikechukwu Ugwuoke, and the Traditional Leader of the association, Igwe Amos Nkwuda, said the visit was to commend and align themselves with the visionary leadership of Governor Soludo, even as they pledged their support to the Governor’s re-election bid.
