According to Vanguard, Osuagwu said, “The South-East Governors’ Forum has lacked effective leadership for a while now. This has cost necessary synergy for effective solutions to the insecurity plaguing Igbo land. The governors should muffle their egos and rally around anyone among them with solutions to offer for the good of the great Igbo Nation."
