Arewa Community in Lagos: Group hails Ganduje for restoring peace

The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has described the intervention of Governor Abdullahi Ganduje’s committee to sustain the cordial relationship with the Arewa community in Lagos led by Alhaji Aminu Idris Yaro Dogara as a step in the right direction.

Alhaji Yerima Shettima, the National President of AYCF, in a statement on Saturday described the Kano State Governor’s peace moves as “exemplary leadership that promotes peaceful co-existence and stability that begun over a century in Lagos”.

The statement noted, “every effort to sustain the peace and tranquility in the Arewa Community should enjoy the support of all Nigerian men and women of good conscience.”

The group said Ganduje’s effort would crush all mischief-makers, betrayers and fifth columnists in Lagos, who have been losing sleep just because there is peace in the Arewa Community.

The AYCF called on the Lagos State Governor to call on one of his commissioners to order over his use of derogatory language against Ganduje, who by virtue of his age, not for just being a governor, deserves their respect.

The statement then warned that if the same scenario repeats itself again, they would be left with no option than to take the necessary legal action, as law-abiding citizens
