A Press Statement by Senator Kelvin Chizoba ChukwuSenator Representing Enugu East Senatorial District 19 June, 2025,



Senator Kelvin Chizoba Chukwu Strongly Condemns the Brutal Attack in Eha-Amufu, Isi-Uzo LGA

I am deeply outraged and heartbroken by the horrific attacks that took place on Sunday, June 16, 2025, in Aguamede community, Eha-Amufu, in Isi-Uzo Local Government Area of Enugu State. 

Reports indicate that suspected Fulani herdsmen unleashed a brutal and inhumane assault, killing about ten innocent citizens, with some sources reporting higher number of fatalities. 

The victims, whom were unarmed and defenseless, suffered gruesome machete wounds to their skulls and bodies—a level of savagery that must not be ignored or tolerated.

This attack is not just a tragedy for the affected families and community; it is a stain on our collective conscience and a grave threat to the peace and security of our senatorial district and state. Even more disturbing are allegations that a helicopter was seen hovering around the area shortly before the attack, suggesting a level of coordination and complicity that demands urgent and thorough investigation.

I unequivocally condemn this heinous act of violence and demand immediate action from all relevant security agencies. The perpetrators of this barbarity must be identified, apprehended, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Our people deserve to live in safety, not in fear.

Recall that I have made some donations of security equipments to enhance the movement of security people and to boost the security efforts of the vigilante group of the people in that area. 
Though, more needs to be done by all layers of government (Local, State and Federal Governments).

I call on the Federal Government, the Inspector General of Police, the Chief of Army Staff, and the National Security Adviser to treat this incident with the seriousness it deserves. The lives of our citizens must not be treated as expendable.

Furthermore, I urge the Enugu State Government to swiftly deploy relief and support services to the affected community while also enhancing local security measures to prevent further bloodshed.

Let it be clear: this is not the time for silence, and we will not be intimidated. I stand firmly with the people of Aguamede and the entire Eha-Amufu community during this painful time. Their grief is our grief, and their cry for justice will not go unheard.

Enough is enough.

.....Dr Emmanuel Chukwuemeka I wouldn't have replied to this garbage write-up from those whose  stock in trade is merchandizing APC Enugu State in every general election season but this reply is to stop those who have been bittered and unrepentant since the duo of Chief Uche Nnaji Nwakabie and Hon Ugochukwu Agballah has changed the wheel of dysfunctional APC Enugu State to a prosperous APC where members can boast of federal jobs, federal appointments, infrastructural and human development from deceiving the unsuspecting individuals. We are not surprised to read the statements of people who want to reap from what they did not sow, the drowning horses who are applauding Peter Mbah who used state mercenaries to stop the bio methanol production plants which is an infrastructural project from the federal government is also looking for an appointment from the same federal government. General Okroagu and Eugen Odoh should keep enjoying the profit of their respective supports t...

APC Enugu State Refutes Arthur Eze’s Claims on Tinubu’s Endorsement of Governor Peter Mbah

Image
The All Progressives Congress (APC), Enugu State Chapter, has described as misleading and completely baseless the recent statement by Anambra-born businessman, Prince Arthur Eze, claiming that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has endorsed Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State for a second term in office. In a strong rebuttal issued on Friday by Mr Titus Ezeagu the Publicity Secretary of the party in Enugu State, the APC dismissed Eze’s claims as “personal opinion driven by self interest rather than political reality.” “Prince Arthur Eze is not a member of the APC. He is neither a spokesperson for President Tinubu nor has he ever played any official role in the President’s campaign or administration,” the statement read. The party reiterated that Arthur Eze Has No Mandate whatsoever to Speak on behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.  The party emphasized that Arthur Eze is not a member of  the APC, and did not support the candidacy of President Tinubu. In fact, prior and du...
