Additionally, the Dein of Agbor, Dr. Benjamin Ikenchukwu, Keagborekuzi I, urged President Tinubu to prioritize national security and peace as the foundation for development.

Notable figures present at the rally included Senator Ned Nwoko, Aeke Ibori-Suenu, and former Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo-Agege, among other key political figures.
