The youths took to the streets of Aba to demand an end to Ebubeagu militia in the state.

The protesting youths could be seen carrying placards with an inscription that reads, ”End Ebubeagu in Igboland.”

The residents called on the state government to scrap the security outfit created by the South East governors in April 2021 to secure lives and properties in the region.

The protesters alleged that members of the security outfit have repeatedly engaged in extrajudicial killings.

They maintained that it is time for the group to be disbanded.

The reason for this was that some perosnnel of Ebubeagu allegedly killed 7 wedding guests some weeks ago.

However, the Abia State governor has said the state will never end the security outfit.
