TThe Oghara StudyGroup (OSG), a civic advocacy organisation in Ethiope West Local Government Area of Delta State, has called for urgent and coordinated action to tackle the rising wave of kidnappings, cultism, banditry and killings in Oghara Kingxqdom.
The group, during a global zoom press briefing yesterday with its Conveners, Prof. Ogheneruonah Eghweree and Rev. David Ugolor, noted that the worsening security situation has become a serious threat to the safety of residents and the socio-economic development of the kingdom.
The OSG expressed sadness that Oghara, a once one of the most peaceful community, has, in recent years, experienced a surge in organised criminal activities, including kidnapping for ransom, armed banditry, cult-related violence and ritual killings.
