Security Agencies Can Assist With The Enforcement Of Anti-Open Grazing Law – Ikpeazu

Abia State Governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu has come out to urge security agencies in the state to help the government to enforce the Anti-Open Grazing Law of Abia State.

He recently revealed this at Michael Ọkpara Auditorium, Umuahia, while flagging-off the Statewide sensitization workshop against criminal activities in Abia communities.

According to him, enforcing the law would definitely help to decrease the problem of farmers/herders clashes in the state, so it should be done on time.

He then urged vital stakeholders especially, the traditional rulers, to keep living up to expectations, since the security of the state is also in their hands.
