Bizarre, Over 50 Decomposed, 20 Headless Bodies Discovered Within Abia State Cattle Market

The Government of Abia State has discovered over 50 decomposed dead bodies, 20 headless bodies, and many human skeletons all around Lokpanta Cattle Market in Umunneochi LGA of the state.

Disclosing this during his monthly media chat tagged “Governor Alex Otti Speaks to Abians”, held at Government House, Umuahia on Monday, the governor Alex Otti stated.

The governor assured that his government is committed to tackling the issues of insecurity without minding whose ox is gored.

Otti said that prostitution, narcotics trade, and other criminal vices around the Lokpanta Cattle Market necessitated the raid of the market as some brothels were recently brought down and there is now calmness in Umunneochi.

The Governor, who insisted that the Lokpanta market would become a daily market that would open at 6am and closes at 6pm would now become a general market as sections are alloted to the cattle dealers and other businesses too.

He made it public that his administration is equally fencing the market all in an effort to ensure adequate security.

According to him, the Lokpanta area was notorious for kidnapping and armed robbery, hence the decision of his administration to make the market a daily one.

He said though the policy was misunderstood, after a meeting with the leadership of the market, everyone agreed with the government’s stand on making the market a daily one for the good of all.

He further noted that, “We are single-minded about rooting out insecurity in Abia State. Because we know that no government can succeed in the face of insecurity, violence, armed and kidnapping.”

The governor said that gadgets would be deployed at strategic places to ensure the security of lives and property in the State. He added that his administration is poised to ensure Abians enjoy a great Christmas this year and maintained that.

“This government will not get involved in supporting insecurity. Our devices will be installed in strategic places.”
