“The Federal government must not give in to the temptation of using force to resolve issues bothering on the vacation order to Igbos in the northern part of Nigeria and the counter order issued by the Niger Delta youth group.
“We also caution the federal government not to arrest leaders of the pro-Biafra groups. The only feasible solution to the issues at hand is dialogue with the young people at the centre of the controversy”, the group said.
The group maintained that “at this point in our national existence, there is need to exercise caution in dealing with agitations across the country in order not to further endanger the unity of the country as no sacrifice is enough when it comes to ensuring the peaceful coexistence in Nigeria”.
