The NBM of Africa Worldwide, a Pan-African organization committed to humanitarian service, social justice, and equity, has strongly condemned the recent wave of killings in Aba and Umuahia.
In a statement released by Esinwa Christian Chinonso, the group’s
Public Relations Officer, after its executive meeting in Aba, the President of NBM of Africa Worldwide, Abia zone, Hon Chidi Idika cited the recent murder of a student of Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu Polytechnic, Aba; a young lady and her twin children in Umuahia as disturbing instances.
Idika expressed deep concern over the killings, describing them as tragic and unacceptable. “The youth are the future leaders of tomorrow. It is devastating to witness innocent lives being lost to criminals and enemies of the state. These killings must stop immediately. The ongoing violence threatens the progress and stability that the state government is striving to achieve.”

He urged residents to remain vigilant, report suspicious activities to the authorities, and actively support security measures.
He emphasized the importance of collaboration between citizens and security operatives, adding, “The synergy between the people and security forces is key to restoring peace and stability in Abia.”
The organization further called on all individuals to support local security efforts and warned those responsible for the crimes to desist immediately or face the full wrath of the law.
Reaffirming its commitment to ensuring peace, the NBM of Africa Worldwide, Abia Zone, pledged full cooperation with security agencies, offering grassroots support to enhance safety measures.
The group said it stands in solidarity with the people of Abia and remains dedicated to restoring security in the state.
