Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has said that his government has got the bank account details of those sponsoring violence in the state.
There have been repeated killings and arson in the state, with the deaths including those of monarchs.
While some have feared the violence could be IPOB-linked, others suspect the political battles the government is waging with its predecessors.
IPOB has, however, dissociated itself from killings, just as former Governor Rochas Okorocha, has said that he is for pace.
But speaking at the weekend, Uzodinma promised to release the names of those involved in January.
He said, “All the people that were hired to kill our people, we have started picking all of them. As of now, we’ve picked 18 suspects. Some of them have confessed those who are paying them.
“We have gotten the bank account from where they have been transferring money to them and we have the evidence. When I will address Imo stakeholders on January 3, I will call their names one by one.”
