Soludo’s Govt Tells What Will Happen To Vigilantes Who Attacked NYSC Member In Anambra
The Anambra State Government is appalled by the disturbing video being circulated online showing a member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) being assaulted and harassed by members of Operation Udo Ga-Achi in Obá, Idemili South Local Government Area of Anambra State.
It strongly condemns this act of violence and harassment against these young Nigerians, who are serving their country with dedication and patriotism.
According to the State’s Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, the government maintains that the Anambra security outfits, Agunechemba and Operation Udo Ga-Achi, were a child of necessity established by the Anambra Homeland Security Law 2025 to maintain law and order, not to perpetrate violence and intimidation, and equally notes that the two security outfits have commendably maintained law and order in the state since their introduction on January 18, 2025.
Therefore, any form of assault perpetrated by any member of the security outfits is outside their code of conduct, and all those involved, particularly in the incident under reference, will face the full weight of the law. The government wishes to reassure members of the public, particularly Youth Corps members in Anambra for their national service, that they have nothing to fear from the State’s security outfits – Agunechemba and Operation Udo Ga-Achi – and should go about their lawful activities without fear.
The government wishes to appreciate the steps taken by the police and Operation Udo Ga-Achi so far by arresting those involved in the assault and urges the victims to cooperate with the police and the leadership of Operation Udo Ga-Achi to ensure speedy dispensation of justice on the matter.
