Hoodlums stormed Nimo town in Anambra State last Saturday. They forced the local market to close as they carried a dead youth through the streets. The group blamed town leaders for causing the young man to die after his release from jail. Traditional ruler Igwe Maximus Ike Oliobi denied these claims against him. He asked the state government for help with the situation.

Oliobi said fewer than 30 troublemakers created chaos for three years. He claimed they rejected honest work and turned to crime instead. The ruler stated that these protesters fought against his efforts to stop kidnapping and land theft. He mentioned that past attempts to engage these youths failed because they wanted fast cash. Their actions scared away business people who might invest in the area.

The community faced similar problems before with restless young people. Last December, residents needed military protection to celebrate holidays peacefully. Oliobi worked as a businessman before becoming the traditional leader. He asked police and security teams to protect the community. Local youth unrest started when some felt left out of community decisions.
