 Catholic bishops are working to ensure peace returns to emo state. This follows the many attacks on government facilities and they clamped down on separatists by the government, witnessed over the last few weeks. The bishops organise a special meeting on peace with two former governors and a senator in attendance. Afterwards, the chairman of the Special Bishops Committee on Peace, Archbishop Anthony Obina, said every indigent and resident need to get involved in ensuring peace returns. Dear people of emo state, thank you for your patience. Thank you for bearing with this very difficult situation. I urge you to continue to pray and to trust in God and trust that the process of peacemaking and getting ceasefire in emo state will, the tempo will increase. Yes, we have noticed that some quiet is returning to emo state, but we're not taking the similar apparent quiet as a final position. So that is why all hands have to be on deck to contribute to bringing peace back to emo state. What is happening in emo must not distract from the security challenge that is the bigger picture. And that's how we must be vigilant and organise ourselves to ensure that the headsmen and those issues are contained.
