Buhari told Nigerian youths to give peace a chance, his generation will soon leave

President Muhammadu Buhari advised the Nigerian youths to keep the peace in their own interest as his generation will leave the soon.

He gave the advice on Monday at State House, Abuja, while receiving in audience the Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations, Amina Mohammed, Nigeria’s former Minister of Environment.

“Nigerian youths would do well to keep the peace, as it is in their own interest ultimately. Our own generation is on the last lap, we are exiting. It is in the interest of the youths to keep the peace. They want jobs, infrastructure and development.

I have sent a team led by the Chief of Staff (Professor Ibrahim Gambari) to go round the country, talk to traditional rulers, who will then talk to the youths.

The views of the youths have been heard,” the President said in response to the recent EndSARS protest, and the mayhem and destruction of public and private property that came in its wake.
