The House also urged the Inspector-General of Police and the Chief of Army staff to deploy more men to the entire border communities in Imo state.
The resolutions followed the adoption of a motion on the need to arrest the incessant killing of people and destruction of property by rival cult groups in Ohaji/Egbema local government area of Imo state, sponsored by Hon. Goodluck Opiah.
