By Aminu Garko
Kano, Sen. Sani Musa (APC-Niger) has called on Nigerians to shun violence and seek dialogue towards resolving the current crisis emanating from the nationwide protests in the country.
Musa, who is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, made the call in a statement in Kano on Friday.
“As we enter the second day of the protests, I wish to appeal to everyone, especially the leaders and organisers to place the country’s welfare above all and call off the protest.
“Too much blood has been shed, lives have been lost and properties destroyed. This violence deepens the wounds we must all work to heal.
“Our strength lies in our unity and our ability to rise above adversity. I call on every Nigerian to reject violence, seek dialogue, and work towards a peaceful resolution of our conflicts.
“Together, we can overcome these challenges and build a nation that we can all be proud of.
“Let us put Nigeria first for the sake of our children and the future generations. Let us show the world that we can resolve our differences through peaceful means,” he said.
The lawmaker appealed to Nigerians to embrace dialogue, and allow peace to prevail in the face of the challenges confronting the nation.
He said we can only resolve our differences through constructive conversation and mutual understanding.
Musa said President Bola Tinubu has the interest of the country at heart and is working tirelessly to bring about positive changes.
Musa,however, said that this could only be realised if all Nigerians come together in peace and cooperation.
According to him, the demands of the protesters can only be addressed in an atmosphere of peace and harmony.
He said that violence and unrest will only delay the resolution of these issues and prolong the suffering of the people.
“This is a challenging time for us all, a period that requires us to embrace the truth, make sacrifices and persevere.
“The hardship we face today will soon be overcome if we stand united and support one another,”he said.
