The Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Chief Gani Adams, has advised President Mohammadu Buhari to urgently enter into constructive dialogue with #ENDSARS protesters.

Adams, in a statement by his Media Assistant, Kehinde Aderemi, made this appeal in a letter to the President on Sunday.

According to him, the President must not use soldiers to forcefully stop the #ENDSARS protests rocking more than 20 states.

“I can’t imagine soldiers being sent to stop protests.

“Soldiers are trained to fight external aggression and we are dealing with peaceful protesters.

“It is wrong to give the impression that Nigeria is at war with her citizens. “We must do everything to promote and defend democratic culture,’’ Adams said.

He also appealed the protesters to ensure the process was not hijacked by violent and recalcitrant people.

The protests have been largely peaceful, although the resort to violence by a section of the protesters is condemnable. It is uncalled for.

“Violence seeks vengeance and creates wounds which scars never heal. “Violence diminishes critical thinking, undermines democracy and destroys any noble intention of the protesters.

“It also questions the quality of those behind the protests. “On the other hand, adoption of a violent response by the state should never be considered an option,’’ Adams added.
