Other sources said, some politicians were using the gunmen to intimidate and harass citizens and political opponents due to the forthcoming Anambra State Governorship election scheduled to hold on November 8 2025.

Some are also tasking the security agencies, the state government and the state-sponsored Udogachi vigilante operatives to do more in securing lives and property in the state.
