A number of youths in Aba, Abia State have staged a protest against Ebube Agu, a security outfit set up by the state government.
The youths who took to the streets of Aba, demanded an end to Ebube Agu 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.
It will be recalled that in July, youths in two local governments in Imo state also protested, calling for the scrap of the security outfit, following an allegation that some of its personnel allegedly killed eight wedding guests.
