He said, “You are all witnesses to our verifiable efforts at attracting development projects to our Constituency. This has been my contract with the people and I am motivated more than ever before to intensify efforts at ensuring a better life for our people through the aggressive attraction of projects to our Constituency, employment of our people gainfully and ensuring that awarded projects are executed.
“I therefore once again wish to call on my constituents wherever they may be residing to stand down and cease all further public agitations. They should also not be a party to any acts of lawlessness and destruction of public and private properties. They should not allow themselves to be used to foment trouble anywhere in the state and the country at large.
“In days to come, I will be convening a youth summit where we can brainstorm and explore different options for our next steps.
“I have absolute faith in the capacity of Governor Okezie Victor Ikpeazu to address the issues raised and I call on all to give him all the required support”.
