Har stressed the need for peace and development as the government and the organised private sector continued in their resolve on conflict resolution and crisis management.
He added that the current administration in the state has adopted a carrot and stick approach in conflict resolution as development would result in an atmosphere of chaos noting that it was cheaper to manage peace than conflict that is expensive.
