After experiencing an assault, you need your loved ones around to help you through the process of healing. We came to Umuahia to STAND STRONG with the widow (tied and flogged), Mrs. Amarachi Okechi and her children.
We wish to thank the wife of Abia State Governor for swiftly responding to our calls for intervention.
No human deserves the pain and trauma this widow is going through right now.
On our part, we have set up a team in Umuahia to help follow up to make sure all the suspects are identified and prosecuted.
None of them will walk freely.
