By Brown Chimezie

Eze Ndigbo of Lagos, Hyacinth Ohazulike has declared that implementation of the national conference report would end protests by Pro-Biafra agitators and other militants in the North-East and other parts of the country.
Ohazulike, who is also the president of Ndieze Ndigbo in the Diaspora, South, said protests and violence in different parts of the country are symptoms of discontent among the geopolitical entity, which make up Nigeria.

He said the earlier the Federal Government implements the conference report, which has already taken care of creation of additional states for the South-East, more autonomy for the federating unit and resource control, the better for Nigeria.
On the decay of infrastructure in the South-East, Ohazulike lamented that the Enugu Port Harcourt Expressway and the Onitsha-Owerri Expressway had been abandoned for decades by successive governments which only paid lip service to the rehabilitation of the roads, adding that this and gully erosion devastating the region only portrayed marginalisation and reasons for agitated youths to find sympathy and support among the populace.
