Part of the statement reads:
For the relations of those killed in the milieu may God give them the fortitude to bear the irreparable losses.
Our Union wishes to advise that the silence of the Federal Government could be read to mean that our youth should destroy the South-West or the entire South just as the youth in the North are destroying the North.
We appeal to our youth to sheathe their swords, we should not play into the hands of those that are not wishing us well.
