In view of agitations championed by several groups asking for the actualization of a sovereign state of Biafra, the governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma says that is not what Ndigbo need.
There have been\u00a0 series of attacks on government facilities and destruction of police stations in the Southeast suspected to be perpetuated by pro Biafra groups.

The governor made the statement in a security meeting held in Imo, the state capital.
Speaking during the summit, governor Uzodinma stated that what Ndigbo want is fairness, equity, justice and not Biafra Nation.
He noted that with equity Justice and fairness the struggle for Biafra will be a thing of the past for those agitating.
“What we want is Nigeria that will provide a level playing ground for its citizens and not Biafra ,if that is done , the issue of Biafra will be gone “.he submitted.
He called on the federal government of Nigeria to include the Igbo man in the scheme of things in order to have a balance in what is happening in Nigeria to avoid more agitations.
