Christian Association of Nigeria, Rev. Samson Ayokunle, has advised the
Government to invite the agitators for talks with a view to finding a lasting
solution to the crisis.
He said, “The best way to win is to have a
dialogue table whereby the Federal Government should hold on to the superior
argument. That is what can move us forward.”
Ayokunle,
who is also the President, Nigeria Baptist Conference, said violent agitations
would further compound the problems facing Nigeria and as such are not
necessary.
The cleric spoke at the inauguration of the new gate of the
Bowen University, Iwo in Osun State, and inauguration of a radio station on the
campus.
He urged IPOB and other groups to embrace dialogue, saying that was the
only way their grievances could be made known legitimately.
