He emphasized the significance of security and his administration’s commitment to ending the economic and psychological hold imposed by non-state actors who enforced sit-at-home orders in the Southeast.

The governor highlighted, “Recently, there have been persistent attempts by individuals, particularly that megalomaniac who resides peacefully with his family in Finland, a country where the rule of law prevails. Yet, he advocates anarchy here and incites our youths to self-destruction.”

He accused Ekpa of exploiting a crisis for personal gain under the guise of advocating for Igbo interests, despite lacking genuine concern for the community.

“He thrives on creating a siege mentality to extort and manipulate our people, deceiving them into believing he champions their cause. In reality, he is merely a common criminal,” the governor asserted.

Mbah reassured Enugu residents of ongoing protection, asserting the state’s resilience against intimidation by criminals.

“We cannot succumb to the atmosphere of siege he seeks to impose on the Southeast. We cherish our hard-earned progress and will continue to safeguard our people with the support of security agencies,” he declared.

Expressing surprise at Ekpa’s residence in Finland and his alleged activities in Nigeria, the governor called on the committee to investigate and potentially facilitate Ekpa’s repatriation and prosecution.

“It’s astonishing that the Finnish government allows him peaceful residence while he promotes terrorism in Nigeria. This matter requires your committee’s attention to ensure his repatriation and prosecution,” Mbah concluded.
