While we don’t support illegality, especially from criminals, we want the Nigerian Army to have a human face in dealing with the Igbo in South-East, especially now there’s no civil disturbances or war in our geo-political zone.  We commend the leadership of all Nigeria Ethnic Nationalities Youth organizations led by Arewa Youth President Alh Yerima Shettima and OYC President, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, as we welcome all 250 Ethnic Nationalities Youth organizations in South East, for the National confab by September 2018.
