Since the President Generals, Traditional Rulers, Community Leaders and Ward Councillors are resident at respect villages, joint effort of the Police, DSS, Civil Guards, Hunters Guards, with the Vigilant Groups across villages will definitely help to check unscrupulous acts by hoodlums and criminals.

Government has therefore charged every Imo community to rise and set up reliable, trained and proactive vigilante security groups in Imo.

Recall that Imo House of Assembly IMHA at a plenary on 24th October, 2024, moved a heart touching motion to condemn the gruesome murder of a pregnant woman identified as Mrs Chinwendu Amadi from Awogu-Logara in Ngor Okpala Local Government Area by unknown assailant at Imo Airport.
The motion was moved by the House member representing Ngor Okpala state Constituency in IMHA acknowledging and commending the dedicated efforts of the Police, Army, Department of State Services (DSS), Air force and other security agencies in the state for their bravery and commitment to maintaining law and order and safeguarding citizens and infrastructure in the face of such brazen atrocity.
The Honourable House further requested security agencies to conduct a thorough investigation and urged the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) to construct perimeter fence within its facilities to enhance security and prevent unauthorized access.
Village, community and neighborhood vigilant groups were charged to be very active on security intelligence gathering to check further obnoxious acts, crime, ritual killings, cultism, stealing, wanton destruction of public facilities, peddling and smoking of hard drugs, gangsterism, illegalities, indecent lifestyles and disturbances by criminals in Imo state.
It is a known fact that Christmas and New year festivities are fast approaching and security personnel are expected to be at 24/7 alert to be ready to fight and combat crime across all villages in Imo state with the joint efforts of the Police command.
