A non governmental Organisation , Center for Peace and Environmental Justice, CEPEJ, yesterday, warned all ethnic and regional agitators particularly IPOB, Arewa Youths, Niger Delta agitators, Oduduwa Youths and all other shades of agitators not to plunge Nigeria into crisis.

The group said the unity of the country remains non-negotiable and sacrosanct insisting that for peace to reign across the nation every group must shun acts capable of plunging the country into avoidable crisis.

President of the group, comrade Sheriff Mulade, gave the warning at its eight yearly conference with the theme: “Sustainable Security and Environment in the Niger Delta: A Key to Nigerian Development” held in Benin City.

Mulade noted, “we in CEPEJ caution that you should adopt non-violence approach to your agitations. IPOB, Arewa Youths, Niger Delta agitators, Oduduwa Youths and all other shades of agitators must not plunge Nigeria into avoidable chaos as Nigeria’s unity is non-negotiable”

Mulade said learning to solve disputes without aggression is a great way to enjoy peace adding that we  can collectively sponsor activities and actions that promote environmental justice, clean environment, enhance security and culture of peace.
