“It’s pertinent to note that leadership is ordained by only God and gives it to whom he wishes, that is why political stakeholders and youths in Igala, Bassaland should exercise restraint by avoiding actions that are capable of truncating the peace of the people we are all one nation irrespective of where you find yourselves”.

The group expressed its commitment toward ensuring total peace in all spheres.

“Let peace be the watchword of everyone by seeing ourselves as brothers and sisters of the same parents do not allow politics to destroy our tenets of love”
