He admonished indigenes of the state to continue to keep faith with democracy despite prevalent security challenges, while commending them for upholding the ideals of nascent democracy. He said;"It’s sadness that our state which used to be number one in the areas of hospitality and security in the entire South-East region has become a shadow of itself, and wondered why it has suddenly turned into a theatre of war for reasons yet unknown.
"Despite the challenges and the losses, I appeal to you in the name of God to remain focused and law abiding, and continue to play your individual role in consolidating our democracy until our state is finally salvaged."
