While addressing journalists on the outcome of the All Progressives Congress, APC, South-East stakeholders meeting, the Minister of Science and Technology, Ogbonnaya Onu, stated this at Uburu, Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi.
According to him, the call is uncalled for as President Muhammadu Buhari has directed relevant agencies to take appropriate actions in halting the killings by suspected herdsmen.
“This situation is not pleasing to anybody but the Federal Government is desirous to achieve a peaceful, strong and united nation.
“The government appeals to south-easterners especially youths, not to take laws into their hands as a result of the development.
“The people should exercise patience, as the president has categorically condemned the herdsmen’s actions and directed that no effort should be spared in checking the situation.
“The Igbos are known globally to be peace loving and abhorrers of violence, as I enjoin them to maintain such virtue,” he said.
The minister said that the meeting involved elected APC leaders, national leaders, members of the National Working Committee, NWC, and other stakeholders from the zone, Tv360 gathered.
