Following the unrest at Gwarinpa community in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, that led to the loss of life, stakeholders in the area yesterday held a peace parley, where issues on how to avoid a reoccurrence were discussed.
Leading the parley at his palace, the district head of Gwarinpa, Malam Umar Bayero, tasked leaders of various tribes and two dominant faiths to tolerate one another and play their role in fighting bad eggs.
He announced the decision to set up an inclusive security vigilante group to deal with all kinds of crimes, especially drug peddling.
Also speaking, the chairman of Gwarinpa Community Safety Foundation, Ambassador Abubakar Ali, called for calm among the victims of the unrest to allow justice to take its course.
