Abia-born US-based UN peace ambassador Mr. Lucky Igbokwe popularly known as Don Lulu has cautioned the youths in the state against destroying public infrastructure even as they engage in #EndSARS protest.
He stated that at a time when there is deficit in infrastructure, it is not in the interest of the public for protesters to engage in destroying infrastructure, adding that lack of job in the land makes it important for businesses in the state to be protected instead of destroyed.
In a statement he signed on Friday, the mayor of peace reiterated the need for Abia youths to remain law aiding and protect public infrastructure.
“Let us not lose focus on our mission. Our voices are meant to only direct our elected officials on the need to change direction and turn Abia towards the part of progress and prosperity.

“We lack infrastructure.. the little we have, we must protect at all cost.. We have no jobs, the businesses we have, we must protect at all cost.
“I strongly condemn any act of violence that will eventually lead to destruction of lives and properties.
“As a mayor of peace, I urge all of our youths to remain calm and peaceful as we continue to direct our grievances appropriately.
“I refuse to label any youth as a hoodlum. if you are a hoodlum, then society made you a hoodlum by not providing conditions of development that will propel your God-given talents.
“We refuse that label on you. You are acting out of your frustrations but I urge you to retreat your sword, let us remain law-abiding, and continue to demand our God-given rights in a peaceful manner” he said.
