A group has proposed the creation of gainful employment opportunities at the Ajaokuta Steal
Company and the National iron Ore Mining Company for youths in Ebiraland as a panacea to the recurring violence in the Kogi State Central Senatorial Zone.
The proposal was contained in a communiqué by the Righteous On-lookers Association issued at the end of a peace parley on communal crises in Ebiraland which was convened by the president of the Customary Court of Appeal, Justice Moses Bello.

The group said "for a long term measure for peace in Ebiraland, there must be the creation of
gainful employment opportunities for the youths through the ASCL & NIOMCO and other places. Serious youths should be encouraged to develop educationally."
The senatorial zone has been plagued by widespread violence which has claimed lives and property. In a proposal for a lasting solution in Ebiraland by Ahmed Adoke, the group's patron, it called for re-orientation programmes for the militant youths and called on them to shy away from violence.

The group expressed concerns over the activities of security agencies in the crises, urging the
government to redeploy policemen who have stayed beyond two years in Okene "because the police in Okene Area Command who are predominantly non indigenes, don't effectively discharge their profession," they said.
At the peace parley, Justice Bello had said that the devastating effects of the crisis ravaging
the entire Ebiraland was a source of great concern to every reasonable Ebira person.
