Fab.Nwaebo said that the Federal Government has decided to sack Nsu Community in Eheme Mbano LGA and replace them with the so called repentant Boko Haram terrorists.

“Where will the Nsu people be relocated,knowing fully well that displaced people to be relocated have their ancestral land, instead of the Federal Government to
to relocate them back to in their ancestral land, they decided to displace Nsu people to only God knows where”
In the same development APC Chieftain from Owerri-West LGA, Chief Charles Obiyo called on the Indigenes of Eheme Mbano with traditional rulers to resist the relocation of Boko Haram terrorist to their ancestral land, adding that Owerri-West has poised to support in any action they will take to resist the relocation of Boko Haram for obvious trado-cultural implication.
