 Governor Soludo Sacks 8 Vigilantes for Br¥tal A+sault of Female Corp Members in Anambra State 

The Anambra State Government has dismissed eight operatives of the Agunechemba Security outfit for a+saulting and publicly str+pping a female corps member, Jennifer Elobor.

Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s Special Adviser on Community Security, Ken Emeakayi, announced the dismissal on Wednesday at the agency’s headquarters in Awka. He said the operatives would be handed over to the police for prosecution.

According to Emeakayi, the officers had been chasing suspected cultists on Tuesday when they att@cked the corps member—an act he described as “totally outside the agency’s mandate and utterly condemnable.”

He stressed that the Soludo administration would not tolerate br¥tality, ab¥se of office, or unprofessional conduct, warning that any officer found guilty of misconduct would face dismissal and legal action.

Despite appeals from the victim’s family and NYSC officials for a quiet resolution, the state government insisted on pursuing justice to serve as a deterrent.

Emeakayi added that the government had settled the victim’s medical expenses, replaced her d@maged belongings, including a laptop and phone and issued a public apology to her family, the NYSC, and the public.

He said the incident would mark a turning point in reforming the outfit and restoring public trust in community security operations.
