The Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives, Ahmed Wase, has assured Nigerian youths that the Federal, State Governments and National Assembly would do everything within their powers to meet their demands.
Wase in a statement on Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Umar Puma, appealed to Nigerian youths to be calm over the #EndSARS protests and not to take laws into their hands.
The deputy speaker urged the youth, particularly in Plateau to give peace a chance.
“The Federal and State Governments as well as the National Assembly will do everything within their powers to ensure that your demands in the protests are met.
“Already, they are doing all that need to be done to ensure justice for the victims of police brutality.
“Let us, therefore, cooperate with relevant government agencies who are working day and night to ensure our safety.
“I want to appeal for calm and urge our citizens to continue to uphold the peaceful profile of our dear state by not taking laws into their hands.
“Do not be tempted to attack public property and facilities which will take us many years of sacrifice and struggles to build,” he said.
Wase said that the Nigeria Police Force had taken note of the agitation.
“Do not destroy our collective heritage while trying to right the wrong of others because as the saying goes, two wrongs don’t make a right,” the lawmaker said.
