Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu, Friday, said that observance of sit-at-home, unknown gunmen, and other social vices are alien and abhorrent to Igboland socially, economically, and culturally.

He however revealed that his office has unveiled a mechanism that will ultimately end insecurity in the south east and restore normalcy in the economic and social life of Ndigbo.

Unveiling the mechanism as Peace In The South East (PISE) project, he said that soon his office in agreement with all the lawmakers from the region irrespective of the political parties will reach out to the State governors and other critical stakeholders for the launch and implementation of the project.

He also said that the project will feature a regional security integration and political leadership that will streamline an agenda for the promotion of Igbo cause and growth in terms of infrastructure.

Kalu who made the revelations during a courtesy call on him by the national leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex socio-cultural group led by its President General, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu bemoaned the insecurity in the south east.

He added that the sit-at-home observed in the region every Monday has crippled businesses and left the region empty.

Kalu who vehemently objected to the sit-at-home order stated that Ndigbo must extend their handshakes across the federation to restore confidence.

The Deputy Speaker also commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his benevolence to Ndigbo by ensuring that the people of the south east were accorded a place in the political hierarchy of the country.

Kalu also remarked of his cordial relationship with the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, saying he will be delighted in accommodating the requests of Ohanaeze Ndigbo in stamping out insecurity in the south east.
