states rose from a closed-door meeting, yesterday, rejecting agitation for secession and reiterating their commitment to peace, unity and stability of the country.
The delegation endorsed the community-policing model of the South-East governors, saying “it should be encouraged because we have set precedence in the Amotekun in the Western part of the country.”“We appreciate our discussions. We are most humbled and I think each of us; the governors, the elders, the religious leaders were able to say one or two things.
In his address at the meeting, Governor of Ebonyi State and Chairman of South-East Governors Forum, David Umahi, on behalf of the leaders of the zone, restated their commitment to national unity, saying “this sincere commitment is a new dawn not only to South East but to entire Nigeria”.On the ban on open grazing, Umahi said: “We discussed the issue of ban on open grazing and this delegation is in support of the ban on open grazing.
Umahi maintained that Ebubeagu is the only recognised local security outfit in the South East. “No other security outfit is speaking for South East and this is the position of Ndigbo.“We are committed to one united Nigeria; we have always mentioned it that all our leaders are committed to this and that is why we read it everywhere. We are for a united Nigeria of fairness, equity and equality of freedom.
Earlier in his opening remarks, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State described the meeting as timely and apt, expressing optimism that the outcome would address the security challenges in the zone.
olusegunyemi The agitation was a blackmail attempt by foolish people. But sincerely they should let them go.
But what do you expect from the Calibre of people in this pix? I think they are scared another war may break out. We know that doesn't need to happen. We can peacefully part ways and remain good neighbors
You all can come together to reject succession but you can't come together to protect and provide for your people. Instead you keep running to the Federal government to ask for favor. Buhari has disappointed you guys by telling you to do your bit. If this is your bit, its sad!
They are on their own accord, not for the people that voted for them per say ReferendumNow
Ndi slave
We wait and see... I don't trust this FG. Lets see the reaction that comes from Bubu...if the subsequent meetings will hold.
Errand boys have echoed their master's voice
Good stand.
The only thing that might stop the agitation is true restructuring. In which the constitution will give room for accountability and punishment of offenders no matter who.
When will this guys come to realize that they no longer decides the future of the youths ?
These men are not the ones to decide for Igbos and will never be, Person Weh wear shoe na him know where e de pain am... And person Weh breast de him mouth no fit talk... Ask why they have done absolutely nothing about Fulani terrorists killing their people..
They are saying their own.
No ruling class will support succession.

Better for them
They can't stop it, they started it and sell the mentality to us. We saw the reasons why we must secede. It's too late to stop 🛑 us because we can't stop agitating for our freedom. FreeBiafra

Politicians do everything possible to maintain the status quo. The real feeling of the people can be ascertained through a plebiscite.
