According to the activist, who is the Ibe-Serimowei of Gbaramatu Kingdom in Warri South West Local Government Area of Delta State, the military has shown professionalism and respect for traditional institution, saddled with the responsibility of promoting cultural and traditional heritage, sustainable security in their domain to compliment government security efforts.
Speaking further, the renowned peace and environmental rights activist, urged the people of Okuama and Ewu kingdom to embrace peace with their neighbours and work with the military high command to fish-out the perpetrators of that heinous and barbaric killing of our 17 militarytary officers to exonerate the people of their alleged complexity.
