The governors of the five states in Nigeria’s southeast have resolved to launch a regional security outfit in the wake of the launch of Operation Amotekun – a similar security network – by their equivalents in the southwest.
Concise News reports that the southeast governors of Enugu, Abia, Anambra, Imo and Ebonyi took this decision on Sunday at a meeting held inside the Government House in Enugu, Enugu State.
The chairman of the South East Governors’ Forum, Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State, disclosed this to newsmen.
