By Joyce Aroh Abakaliki

The General overseer of City of Grace Royal Assembly Church , Prophet Jeremiah Okoye has condemned the renewed killings of innocent people and destruction of property, between the people of Alike Ikwo and their Izzi brothers of Enyigba in Abakaliki LGA.

Prophet Okoye who stated this in Abakaliki, during  a 3- day  programme, titled "From labour to Favour", said that the people of Ikwo and Izzi, are supposed to live as one united family in the state.
The Man of God who described such act as barbaric and unfortunate however condemned in strong terms the reports of blocking of major roads, demands that people should leave the capital city, hostage taking and other forms of impunity which are capable of raising more tension not only among the people of the two clans, but other residents of the capital city.

He  called on those instigating, sponsoring such acts to desist from it, as nature will not hesitate to pay them back with the same coin.

He further urged the both Ikwo and Izzi people to sheathe their sword and embrace peace and live in unity and God's love, while prophecy's to the trouble zone that there would be no more attacks, shading of blood  between the two clan.

He expressed hope that God will restore peace in ikwo and Izzi,  while  any person sponsoring or encouraging further attacks will face God's wrath and judgment..

Meanwhile, he commended the State Government efforts towards finding lasting solution to the cause of the crisis .
