The Illushi/Uroh community in Esan South East Local Government Area of Edo State has petitioned the Inspector General of police, Kayode Egbetokun over a lingering and long standing dispute in the Community.
The Community at a news conference called for a renewed and comprehensive investigation into longstanding land disputes and complaints against an Abuja lawyer, Victor Giwa.
A Community leader in the area, Evangelist Chris Okeh said the community had, over several years, submitted petitions to relevant authorities concerning disputes in the area and concerns linked to Abuja-based lawyer, Barr. Victor Giwa.
He noted that while the Inspector-General of Police had made some progress on earlier petitions, several aspects of the investigation remained unresolved.
According to him, the latest press briefing became necessary in response to recent public statements by Giwa, which he said had generated renewed concerns among complainants in Abuja, Lagos, and Edo State.
The community praised the Inspector-General of Police, the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), and the Judiciary for what it described as their ongoing commitment to examining the concerns raised by affected individuals.
The community appeals for peaceful engagement and a transparent resolution of all outstanding issues affecting the Illushi/Uroh community.
