Honorable Cyril Omini Fanbase

A Call for Peace and Calm in Yakurr 1 State Constituency.

Dear Constituents,

I wish to address the ongoing unrest between some farmers from Ketabebe in Ugep Community and Idomi Community within Yakurr 1 State Constituency over a land dispute. This situation is deeply troubling, and I know many of you are afraid. I want to assure you that I am fully aware and actively engaged on this matter.

I call on both communities to immediately cease all forms of hostility and confrontation. No piece of land is worth the life or blood of any constituent of Yakurr 1 State Constituency. I have personally spoken with Traditional Rulers, Local Government authorities, and the Office of State Security Adviser.

Violence, trespass, destruction of property, and any form of lawlessness will not be tolerated. Anyone found instigating trouble or taking the law into their own hands will face the full consequences. There is no excuse for chaos in our constituency.

To all residents, traders, workers, and commuters in Ugep and Idomi communities, please remain calm. Go about your lawful businesses without fear. Do not allow anyone to use you as a tool for disorder. I am in constant communication with the relevant authorities, and I believe peace will return very soon.

I will continue to engage all stakeholders, including youth leaders, elders, and community heads, until a lasting resolution is reached. I am also making arrangements for a peace meeting between both communities in the coming days.

We are one constituency and one family. This dispute does not define us. Let us choose peace, dialogue, and respect for the law. I stand with you, and I will not rest until normalcy is fully restored in Ugep and Idomi communities.

Member Representing Yakurr 1 State Constituency Cross River State House of Assembly
