The five governors of the South-East states met Thursday at the Government House, Enugu, Enugu State.

The governors, who constitute the regional South-East Governors’ Forum, are Alex Otti (Abia), Prof. Chukwuma Soludo (Anambra), Francis Nwifuru (Ebonyi), Dr Peter Mbah (Enugu) and Senator Hope Uzodimma (Imo).

Today’s meeting marks the first to be held among the five governors since the inauguration of new governors into office on May 29, 2023.

It was gathered one of the things that would feature prominently on the agenda is the issue of Monday’s sit-at-home in the region and the demand for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra, who has been in the custody of the Department of State Services since June 2021.
