 Following the state of insecurity across the country and particularly in the southeastern region, a group under the agis of Igbo Conscious has gathered to discuss and profile solutions. The members of the Igbo Conscious group are calling on the federal government to declare a state of emergency in the region as well as the deployment of increased security. Plus, TV Africa's Messiah Begba tells us more. Following the report of the death of Chike Akunyili, a medical doctor and late Dora Kunyili's husband, prominent stakeholders are concerned about the state of security in the southeastern region. Convener of the Igbo Conscious group Joey Bukwe and a special adviser to the governor of Lagos State on drainage and water resources says government should improve the security of lives and properties in the region. That the federal government should consider the option of declaring a state of emergency in the southeast or at least some states in the southeast that arrest this dangerous state of anarchy. Number two, that the federal government draft more security forces and agencies to the southeast to save the people from themselves. Consents were also raised about the economy of the southeast region following the unrest. He said it has a semblance of what led to the First Civil War in Nigeria that started in 1967 to 1970. Businesses have been led to west, have been led west and southeast is experiencing tremendous capital flights. What's more, Igbo have lost hundreds of billions of Naira since the sudden post madness. Meanwhile, some believe that the members of the indigenous people of Biafra, iPop are responsible for the unrest in the southeastern region. They're asking the federal government to restore order. It's very clear that some individuals under the guise of iPop have made up their mind to make southeast ungovernable. And it is very clear that the majority of our people in the southeast are feeling the pain of the few individuals. And hence our call today should be taken very seriously by the federal government. The southeast region has been in the news recently with the reports of violence and killings with the indigenous people of Biafra insisting on a seated home order for residents. In honor of those that term, heroes. Massey Ebokbo for Plus TV Africa. Get notified about fresh news updates.
