Ebonyi State Governor, DAVE UMAHI, has raised an alarm over a plot by some persons to incite war in the southeast.

Speaking during an interview on a monitored programme, Governor UMAHI said bandits were committing crimes in the South-East of the country under the guise of the Eastern Security Network.

Although he didn’t reveal names or identities of the individuals involved, he warned that governors of the region will not allow what he termed illegality to reign in the area.

Governor UMAHI said the regional security outfit, Ebube Agu, recently launched by the South-East governors was not formed in a hurry, adding that it is the only recognized security outfit in the region.
