Kwara gov tasks Share, Tsaragi elders on peaceful coexistence
Kwara State Governor, Dr Abdulfatah Ahmed has called on elders of Tsaragi in Edu local government and Share in Ifelodun local government area of the state, engaged in communal clash recently, to be advocates of peace rather than war.
Ahmed made the call in separate interactions with the elders of the two communities on how to ensure lasting peace.
The governor urged the elders as opinion moulders in their communities to pass values of unity that can endure the passage of time and ensure enduring peace into their youths.
Ahmed, who called the peace meetings as a result of the recent clash between the two communities, said the people should know that there is strength in unity in diversity.
He told the elders that proximity of the two warring communities should be for their advantage as they can take advantage of the proximity for infrastructural development of both communities, rather than the resort to clashes and violence.
The governor also urged parties not to carry out reprisal attacks as such would not benefit anybody but continue the vicious circle of violence and destruction of properties, just as he assured the elders of the communities that his administration remained committed to the restoration of peace.
In their separate remarks, the Wali of Tsaragi, Dr Muhammed Haruna and Asiwaju of Share, Chief Muhammed Lawal said they would be partners with the government in the restoration of peace between the two communities.
