Beginning November 1, 2022, Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state has prohibited any type of political rally at all Primary and Secondary Schools, including marketplaces.

This was declared by the Governor of Ebonyi State during the “Citizens’ input and Consultation for the 2023 Budget estimation and Nigeria 2023 Population and Housing Census” 

Umahi stated that all political gatherings, including those of the All Progressive Congress (APC), require authorization from the Commissioner of Education.

The governor also prohibited the use of Okada motorcycles between the hours of 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. in Ebonyi State, as he plans to boost the number of Ebubeagu security agents.

He explained that the decision was made in an effort to protect lives and property from thieves who use motorcycles to commit nefarious acts.

He stated, “The Attorney-General will come up with executive order banning motorcycles in every part of the State from 7pm to 6am. If you want to use it, use it before 7 pm. We have to do everything to secure your lives.

“When we take hard decisions it is because we have to take it. The primary responsibility of government is to secure lives and property, so you must make sacrifice to do it.

“From Nov 1, no rallies in schools whether primary schools or secondary schools. If you must hold rallies there, you must apply to Commissioner for Education and he must give you permission because when you do rallies in this places and mess it up with faeces and other deaths who will clean it.

“So if you apply, you must put down money for the cleaning after the rally irrespective of the party”, he said.

The governor stated that people requesting a ban on Ebubeagu are wasting their time and that the group is here to stay.

He stated that the organization is filling the personnel void in the State’s security services.
