The traditional rulers of Umuahia North Local Government Area in Abia State have taken a spiritual stand against kidnappers by placing a curse of death on them.
The monarchs made this invocation during a special prayer session held on December 24, where they performed traditional rituals, including pouring libation, breaking kola nuts, and using alligator peppers as part of their declarations against banditry and criminality in the area.
Led by Eze Innocent Nwaigwe, the royal fathers proclaimed death upon any kidnapper terrorizing the indigenes of Umuahia North.
The traditional rulers also declared that the local government will witness a peaceful and protected atmosphere throughout the Christmas and New Year periods and beyond prayed for the safety of all indigenes of Umuahia North.
The kings who invoked bees to sting out any kidnapper hiding in any bush in Umuahia North, said the bandits would die or be apprehended live unless they stopped their evil activities.
The Umuahia North Monarchs also prayed for God’s protection and guidance upon Governor Alex Otti, saying that the present administration in Abia State has so far, performed well in security and other areas of leadership.
Speaking after the prayers, Eze Innocent Nwaigwe said the monarchs asked the gods to visit kidnappers with capital punishment unless they quit their evil ways.
