”As a student association, we strongly condemned killing of innocent citizens by whichever group in Nigeria.
”We can also solve our differences through dialogue, hence we plea with all stakeholders to cease fire and iron out the possible solution instead of wasting life and properties.
”That ASONIS Frowned at banditry, and tagged Igangan (Oyo State) massacre as too cruel, hence we call on state government and federal government to bring the perpetrators of such evil to book.
”We urge the citizens of southern states to engage God in prayer as we can not solve this pandemonium without God.
”The higher the unemployment, the higher the crime. On this note, we urge the Governors of southern states to attend to the increasing rate of unemployment among youths.”
