An Abuja-based humanitarian group, Mogulboss, urged the Federal Government to employ dialogue as a means for resolving the crisis in Southern Kaduna.
The CEO of mogulboss, John Oputa, in an interview with select newsmen on Thursday in Abuja, also called for peaceful coexistence among the diverse ethnic and religious groups in the country.
According to him, the country is in dire need of peace, oneness, and respect for rule of law, noting that recent events could plunge the nation into a state of anarchy.
The group, which has over 4000 members nationally and internationally, said that there is an absolute need for peace and unity in Nigeria, especially the communities in Southern Kaduna.
Mr Oputa said the issue that has been of major concern in the Southern part of Kaduna was a land dispute that would only take a simple dialogue to resolve.
He said: “The only reason why these things are happening is because of absence of unity in Nigeria.
“If you look at the country’s coat of arm, one of our mottos talks about peace and unity.
“Now, do we have peace? no! Do we have unity, no! A part of the bible says a house cannot stand if it is divided amongst itself.
Even in friendship, if there is no unity it cannot thrive. We need to be united. The problems could be land, it could be just a little misunderstanding.
“Most of the time it is land dispute or maybe this one insulted my wife or that, and, most times, they need simple dialogue as the best way forward.
“There should be dialogue and sincere willingness to make peace. Firstly, they need to sought out their differences, and be united. That is the only way it can work.
“And unity is all about what Mogulboss preaches: it is all about uniting people either for business or for social wise.”
The Mayor of Mogulboss for Mararaba – Nyanya chapter, Beulah Chinoso, during a social Hangout of Mararaba – Nyanya chapter, Abuja, said that the group is bent on bringing oneness between people, polity and climes, irrespective of colour, age, ethinicity, status and state in Nigeria and beyond.
A member of Mogulboss, Phoebe Dabal, advised Nigerians to be unified and show love irrespective of tribe, religion, class or any social differences in the country.
“Nigerians should love irrespective of tribe, religion or class because we really need each other.
“Ordinarily, other people that were there on private hangout would not believe that we were meeting each other for the first time. Love is the language that will continue to bind us together,” Mrs Dabal advised.
