Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi on Tuesday, renewed earlier agitations for the establishment of South East Development Commission by the Federal government.
Umahi was speaking in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital at the inauguration of new executives of the South-East Traditional Rulers Council.
Recalling that several past legislative efforts on the establishment of the Commission were not fruitful, Umahi urged the traditional leaders and other stakeholders in the zone to lend their voices in reviving the agitation.
