The group also lamented the rising levels of insecurity in the country, and called on the government to avert creating chaos in the Niger Delta.
“Nigeria’s present insecurity problem is not a secret affair, a lot of atrocities are ongoing such as assassination, kidnapping and bandits burning down communities in the north, middle belt and killings in the East.
“These happenings are threatening our existence as a people. The Niger Delta has remained peaceful in the middle of these issues, maintaining it’s status quo as the live wire of Nigeria. The federal government must do all it can to avoid breakdown of law and order in the region,” Timi warned.
