The Catholic Bishop of the Enugu Diocese, Bishop Calistus Onaga had called on the Federal Government to reassess its security approach so that it is perceived as comprehensive rather than sectional.
He said this during the Holy Mass and formal opening of the Catholic Bishops Conference 2021 in Enugu on Sunday.
He tasked the government to be steadfast in ensuring that the tactics used to crack down on secessionist agitators in the South are also used to combat banditry and insurgency in the Northern part of the country.
He also urged members of the Indigenous People of Biafra to reconsider its Sit-at -Home Order, which among other issues will protect the socio-economic well-being of residents in the South East region.
The one-week national Catholic Bishops Conference has the Pope represented by Anthony Guido Filipazzi and all Catholic Bishops from all 36 states and the FCT.
