They solicited for the understanding and cooperation of the public and stakeholders with Ndi Igwe's intervention in the matter, in collaboration with state government. 


Expressing satisfaction with the positive response from the affected communities to various interventions put in place by laying down their weapons for peace, the monarchs called on government to start the processes of demarcation of the disputed lands.
