Some residents of Awka, the Anambra State Capital, have urged the Federal Government to implement the resolutions of the Southern Governors Forum to address issues threatening the existence of Nigeria as one indivisible entity.

 

Recently, Governors of the Southern part of Nigeria met in Asaba, Delta State, where they passed resolutions on the State of the nation.

 

The Governors in their resolutions called on President Mohammadu Buhari to tackle insecurity in the country, address agitations by various tribes for greater inclusiveness in existing arrangements, restructure the country to attain unprecedented development, among others.

 

Speaking on the development, Mr. Paulson Okeke noted that the resolutions of the Southern Governors were timely; as such move is required to address several issues hindering the rapid development of the country.

 

He therefore urged the Federal Government to implement the resolutions for the benefit of the nation.

 

On his part, a public Affairs Analyst, Mr. Kemi Chida, described the first meeting of the Southern Governors as a step in the right direction, as it will compel the Federal Government to take issues concerning the Southern part of Nigeria seriously.

 

He however, urged the Governors to sustain the synergy that now exists among them in order to attract more meaningful development to the areas
