Ebonyi State Governor, DAVE UMAHI

Ebonyi State Governor, DAVE UMAHI has debunked claims that killings in the South Eastern part of Nigeria are being perpetrated by outsiders.

Governor UMAHI said the attacks on strategic infrastructure, the killing of innocent people and security agents, were carried out by youths of the South-East.

Speaking on a televised programme, the Governor recalled how he adopted a bottom-top approach to find solutions to insecurity in Ebonyi, by engaging the traditional rulers, the political class and the bandits.

Governor UMAHI however, said the tension in the South-East would be doused if he emerged the next President of Nigeria.
