“Their presence causes more harm than good, creating hardship for our people. Instead of checkpoints that disrupt daily life, patrols would be more effective in addressing security concerns.

She said: “The Federal Government must release Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally if it is sincere about restoring peace in the South-East.”
