In a bid to control hate speeches in the country, 36 speakers of the State Houses of Assembly have called on to President Mohammadu Buhari to sue security agencies to checkmate agitators activities.
The special session which took place at the Imo state House of Assembly was presented by Majority leader, Mr Lugard Osuji. In what looks like a view contrary to the opinion, the Ondo state speaker, Mr Bamidele Oleyelogun said the reasons for agitations should be looked into.
Some part of the resolution reads.
“The violent approach adopted by the members of the various ethnic, political and religious groups whose actions are threatening the unity, oneness and territory integrity of Nigeria is hereby condemned.
“Any ethnic group or persons that have complaints or grievances should channel such complaints or grievances through their elected representatives at the Federal or state levels.

“All ethnic and political and religious groups, herdsmen, farmers, aggrieved ethnic groups and agitators are urged to stop all hostilities and any act that is capable of triggering a crisis.”
In a summative remark, Oleyelogun said there was the need to ask those agitating why they were doing so, he added that the reason must be known just as the talk about power devolution was ongoing.
