A communiqué signed by the Chairman of the Governing Council, the Ovie Uvwie Kingdom. HRM, Emmanuel Sideso and Secretary General, Eze Ijikala II of Oko, Prof. Laz Ekwueme respectively, and made available to Vanguard, the paramount rulers warned the Boko Haram sect to release, without further delay, all the abducted schoolgirls in their custody.
The Council resolved that, “ the abduction of school girls in Chibok, Borno State, was a most disheartening development that must be condemned by all as a national calamity.”
“That all traditional rulers in the country and their subjects should provide adequate support to our security agencies and the intervening multi-national security agencies to see that the Boko Haram terror is tamed soonest.”
The council also charged traditional rulers to intensify youth empowerment in their domains, to minimize youth involvement in crimes.
