Senator Pleads With Boko Haram Sect To Embrace Peace, Dialogue

The Senator representing Kebbi south, Retired Maj. Gen. Muhammadu
Magoro has appealed to the Boko Haram sect to embrace dialogue in
resolving grievances to fast-track development.

Magoro told newsmen in Zuru on Friday that the continued violent
agitation by the sect had retarded development in the Northeast and
the country.

He said without peace, meaningful development could not be achieved
and called on members of the sect to embrace dialogue in order to
resolve the crises.

Magoro said that the present leadership of the country was desirous of
development.

He urged security agencies not to relent in the fight against
terrorism, adding that everyone must think of addressing the current
security challenges.

The lawmaker also appealed to Nigerians to pray and work in harmony
for peace and progress in 2014.
