Akoh who said there was no need for the disintegra­tion of the country, appealed to elders of other regions to engage their youths in discussion­s that would engender peaceful co-existence.

He also called for continuous consultati­on that would lead to sustainabl­e peace in the country, as well as enable youth to take their rightful place in governance.
