Eze Obijiaku, who made call in his personal residence in Gusau, urged journalists to be careful while discharging their primary assignments in order not to incite violence but to sustain the relative peace that is gradually returning to the country after the nationwide strike against the fuel subsidy removal.
He expressed his dissatisfaction with a report that raised alarm over a large exodus of Igbo people back to the eastern part of the country as a result of the Boko Haram threat.
Obiajakor, however, urged the federal government to unmask any person or group that is all out to trigger disunity and in the process cause havoc in the country.
Eze has further explained that, the Zamfara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulaziz Abubakar Yari was very proactive in taming attacks reportedly targeted at Christians before, during and after the strike.
Meanwhile, the Zamfara State government has remitted one billion naira being part of its counterpart funding to the programme of the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) projects even as three local government areas were selected to lead some lucrative projects in the state.
Speaking with THISDAY, the state’s Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Alhaji Kabiru Sahabi Liman, maintained that, Governor Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, has since approved the released of counterpart funds for the state to benefit from the MDG’S programmes.
