He enjoined both communities to always live in peace and unity in order to attract socioeconomic development to Warri and its environs.
The Warri federal parliamentarian assured that he will always advocate for peaceful coexistence among various ethnic groups in Warri in order to attract investors to the oil city.
He advised youths to channel their energy to things that will be more fruitful to them as well as their various community and shun fanning embers of war.
