He stated that the Governors’ collaborative efforts would aid in addressing the region’s difficulties.
“We commend Soludo for his strong political will in calling for the unconditional release of the detained Biafra agitator, and volunteering to stand as his surety.
“Such decision has further demonstrated his commitment in championing the cause of Ndigbo and protecting the interests of the people, not only in Anambra State, but the entire Southeast zone.
“The call should be supported and reechoed by other stakeholders in Igboland as reflected in the stand of late Mbazulike Amechi and late Ohaneze President, Prof George Obiozor.
“We call on the governors of the South East to reinforce the call by Soludo.
