We’re up-to-date with payment of security agents in Operation Crush – Abia Gov

“My attention has been drawn to a misleading report on the social media, alleging that the Abia State Government is owing soldiers attached to the multi-agency security task force, codenamed Operation Crush,” a statement signed by Kazie Uko, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor said on Friday.

“The General public is advised to disregard this falsehood as the state government is up-to-date in meeting its obligations to the anti-crime task force, which has been instrumental in dealing with incidents of violent crimes and dislodging the kidnapping ring around the Umunneochi-Uturu-Okigwe axis, especially on the Enugu-Umuahia-Aba-Port Harcourt Expressway.”
