The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has warned that it will institute legal action on anyone attempting to truncate the peace of the Arewa community in Lagos State.
The national president of the group, Alhaji Yerima Shettima, in a statement issued yesterday in Kaduna, told the Lagos Commissioner for Waterfront to face his primary duties of water supply, saying he had no business with traditional institutions.
He commended the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, for his peace moves and intervention efforts which, he said, will further sustain the cordial relationship between the Arewa community in Lagos State led by HRH Alhaji Aminu Idris Yaro Dogara.
He urged the Lagos State governor to call his commissioner to order over his “use of derogatory language against Governor Ganduje, who by virtue of his age, and not just being a governor, deserves our respect.”
