The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom
Wike, has said President Bola Tinubu is ready for dialogue, as the nationwide
protest began on Thursday.
Wike met with Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on
the same day.
There were massive demonstrations in the FCT, with security
officials having to fire tear gas to disperse protesters.
Wike has now said the Federal Government is open to having a
dialogue with the protesters.
He stated this while handing over the Staff of the Office to
four newly coronated Chiefs of Karu, Kwali, Pai, and Yaba.
“I want you to continue with that peace process, because he
who makes peace will, at the end of the day, enjoy the dividends of peace.
“I want to commend you and urge you to still talk to our
people, that we are still ready to talk to them, have a dialogue with them and
iron out the grey areas.
“We’ll also brief them on certain things they do not know so
that they will be well informed to make informed decisions,” Wike said.
