The committee which is made up of eminent sons of Ikwo Noyo including the former governor Elechi whose love for peace is celebrated by all is in response to a mandate given by the governor of Ebonyi state, Engr. Chief David Nweze Umahi FNSE, FNATE, when he hosted a security meeting of Ikwo stakeholders at the Christian Ecumenical Center Abakaliki on May 7, 2021.
At that security meeting, His Excellency the governor had asked Chief Elechi to bring together a team of distinguished Ikwo sons to put an end to all lingering crisis in the council area.
Speaking during the inauguration today, the executive chairman of Ikwo LGA, Elder Hon. Stephen Orogwu, enumerated some of the disputes to be settled to include: Ndiegu Inyimagu and Ndiegu ekpaomaka boundary dispute; Abina village and Amagu land dispute; Uduku Igbudu/Agubia internal crisis; and Nduoduma Echara internal crisis. He expressed confidence in the committee and assured the committee of provision of logistics for the work, security for the committee and a standby bus to always transport the committee members wherever and whenever the need arises.
While inuagurating the committee, Chief Elechi stated that the antecedents of members qualified them to be in the committee. He noted that they are all distinguished men with enormous respect in the society.
