Darlington Ojy Onwukwe who represented Umuaka Times in the company of Mr Maxwell Obishirike, described the sad incident as a great pity and appealed to the royal father and his cabinet to take heart over the senseless murder of the promising young man by the security forces.<\/p>\n<p>The newspaper through Mr Onwukwe, registered her dismay and condemnation towards the constant invasion of Umuaka Municipal Council by security men who force young boys on dreadlocks etc to transfer money to them at gunpoint. \u201cThese security officials go as far as searching the telephone contacts of the young lads, accusing them of being \u201cYahoo boys\u201d and finally force them to transfer money to them either through a POS machine or USSD applications,\u201d Onwukwe said.<\/p>\n<p>In his final conclusion, he showed the interest of Umuaka Times to closely work with the Obinwanne community in unmasking and arresting the security officials who committed the said crime in Umuaka.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12618\" src=\"http:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_20230617_163107.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_20230617_163107.jpg 600w, https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_20230617_163107-224x300.jpg 224w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While responding to the presentation made by Umuaka Times, the Obinwanne monarch, HRM Eze Justin Ezeala thanked the newspaper and reassured his commitment towards bringing the killers of the innocent boy to book through the official channels and legal institutions in the country.
