The Governor of Imo State Hope Uzodimma has called on the military to study the geography of the Southeast region, introduce new methods and do more to protect the citizens of the area.

Uzodinma made the call yesterday when the General Officer Commanding GOC 82 Division, Enugu, Major General Umar t. Musa, paid him a courtesy call at the New Executive Council Chambers Government House, Owerri.

He noted that insecurity has challenged the government so much and it would continue to encourage the military and other arms of the Armed Forces to help the government bring peace and ensure security to the Southeast, lamenting that all attempt at stamping criminality out has been futile as they are adamant in their activities of destroying government property and killing innocent citizens.”

Earlier, Major General Musa told the governor that they were in Imo to pay a courtesy call as tradition demands and to inform the Governor that he has fully assumed duties as the new GOC in the Southeast, assuring that it is their responsibility to ensure that the criminals are flushed out so that the citizens will go about their normal activities and enjoy their normal life.
