He said, “The invasion of Oporoza by the military with gunboats and war aircraft is condemnable and unacceptable, it is pure intimidation and oppression of innocent people of Gbaramatu Kingdom. The people of Gbaramatu are law abiding and peace loving, Gbaramatu is not a war zone, therefore, the Federal Government should stop the military from further invasion of the kingdom.
“Gbaramatu Kingdom contributes greatly to the survival of the country, we expect the Federal Government to embark on massive human and infrastructural development in all the communities there, and not the unnecessary military invasion.”
