 A lawmaker representing Isi'a Langua North, Federal Constituency of Abia, Jinja Onwu-Sibi, says killings in the southeast were because of Namdi Khanu's detention. He said this while proposing an amendment to a motion sponsored by Eze Onwachiku from Eboni. The motion sought to forestall the killings in Eboni or Hoku, Federal Constituency of Eboni State. While moving the motion, Eze said a tragic incident occurred on July 4, where two residents were killed in a marketplace by faceless assailants living several others seriously wounded. But contributing to the motion, Onwu-Sibi proposed that the House should ask Tanubu to ensure Khanu's release to put an end to the killings in the southeast geopolitical zone. But Abdul-Lahi Halim, the deputy majority leader, kicked against the prayer, saying the House should not delve into a matter which is before the court. However, Benjamin Karlo, the deputy speaker, spoke in favour of the amendment, noting that the proposal by Onwu-Sibi sought to find an amicable way of securing Khanu's release. Regrets that two persons were reported 20% sustained various degrees of body injuries. Also, regret that the report indicates that the victims of this incident are mostly natives of the community who have gone out to engage in economic activities but, unfortunately, met the attack while persons met their untimely deaths.
