Mr Ibas made this appeal during the combined 121st and 122nd quarterly meeting of the State Council of Traditional Rulers in Port Harcourt on Friday.
He said the meeting highlighted the need for unity and collaboration between government and traditional institutions to tackle state challenges.
The sole administrator emphasised the crucial role traditional rulers play in peacebuilding and called for joint efforts to address community issues.
He stressed the importance of securing government facilities from theft and vandalism and warned against protecting rulers involved in unrest.
