Northerners’ communities in Imo State have pledged their commitment to peaceful coexistence with residents of the state.
Baba-Sulaiman, while reacting to the claim that the mayhem unleashed on settlers of three northern communities from July 27 to 28, 2023, was carried out at the behest of Governor Hope Uzodimma, avowed that northerners residing in the state have continued to enjoy the peace and cooperation of their host communities.
Some northerners in the affected communities were affected, however, as their settlements were torched in the process. “These reports are misleading, unfounded, divisive, and aimed at disrupting national peace and unity because we have never been attacked by the state government or its agents.
