Senate President
Bukola Saraki said the Senate would meet with security chiefs to chart a path
for resolution of contentious issues engendering tension in the South-East.
He said that the
meeting, expected to hold shortly, would address the tension in the South-East
and the skirmishes in Plateau. Saraki
said in a statement on Sunday in Abuja that security agencies, political and
religious leaders must work for the promotion of dialogue as means for tackling
agitations, to ensure peace in the country.
In the statement
by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Yusuph Olaniyonu, he urged all
Nigerians to maintain peace and avoid statements or actions capable of aggravating
the tension in parts of the country. The president of the senate said that the
crises in the country were not unconnected to the economic challenges being
faced by citizens.
