Governors in the Southeast region of Nigeria have launched a joint security outfit codenamed Ebube Agu.
Ebube Agu, patterned after Amotekun in the Southwest, was launched on Saturday April 10, 2021 after governors of the region and heads of security agencies held the first southeast security summit in Owerri, Imo State.
The meeting held days after gunmen attacked the Owerri Custodial Centre, freeing 1,884 inmates.

The Imo State Police Command was also attacked by gunmen who set several vehicles ablaze on the same day.
