Its President, Mr Akoshile Mukhtar, who disclosed this at a news conference in Abuja on Wednesday, distanced the association from the ongoing nationwide protest against hunger, hardship and bad government.

Mukhtar said that the measure was part of the association’s continued efforts toward promoting peace and unity in the FCT.

He explained that the association would hold various activities during the week, including a peace walk, peace talk, prayer sessions, and other events aimed at fostering harmony and understanding among the youths.

“These activities will provide an opportunity for us to come together, reflect on our shared goals, and strengthen our resolve to maintain peace in our city.

“The Week of Peace will serve as a powerful reminder of our commitment to a peaceful and prosperous Abuja.

“By participating in these events, we can show our solidarity and dedication to building a city that thrives on unity and cooperation.

“We will use the week to engage in meaningful dialogue, to pray for our city’s continued growth, and to walk together in a demonstration of our shared commitment to peace,” he said.

He commended the FCT Minister, Mr Nyesom Wike, for his proactive approach in addressing the grievances of the youth and initiating developmental strides that have transformed Abuja capital city.

He said under Wike’s leadership, the FCT was becoming a city that all Nigerians could be proud of.

Mukhtar added that since assuming office, Wike had demonstrated a clear commitment to fostering a more inclusive and progressive Abuja.

He explained that the minister’s initiatives have not only addressed immediate concerns but have also set the foundation for sustainable development.

According to him, Wike has renewed the hope and optimism of residents to a new Abuja that protects the interest of all.

“We must, therefore, recognise the unprecedented achievements of the FCT minister within just a year in office.

“His commitment to development and youth engagement is evident. Let us support him as he builds on these achievements, ensuring that our city continues to progress.

“Wike has set a new standard for governance in the FCT, and it is imperative that we support his continued efforts.

‘By standing together, we can ensure that the momentum of development is not hindered by those who seek to derail it.”

Speaking on the ongoing protest, the president called on all youth of Abuja to embrace peace and dialogue, saying “Nigeria belongs to us all, and we must own it with a sense of responsibility.”

He described peace and dialogue as essential to achieve an inclusive governance that represented and served all citizens.
