The Chairman of Emohua Local Government Council, Tom Aliezi, has banned the activities of all community vigilante groups, also know as OSPAC across the local government area.
Aliezi said the dissolution follows several reports of the unlawful activities of some bad eggs within the vigilante groups, which is a complete deviation from the aims and objectives behind the establishment of the community vigilante groups in the area.
“The operations of OSPAC and every other vigilante groups across the local government are hereby suspended indefinitely.
“Security agencies have been directed to arrest and prosecute any person or persons operating in the area in the name of OSPAC or any other illegal community vigilante group.
“Traditional rulers in the various communities are to report anyone or group of people operating in the name of a community vigilante group to relevant security agencies”.
