A statement by the Minister’s spokesman, Anthony Ogunleye said: “The meeting noted that it was essential that efforts are made to understand the nation’s youthful population so as to engage with them.

“The meeting also called for an early resolution of the ongoing ASUU strike so that students can go back to school. The Christian leaders appealed for immediate and long term plans to check youth unemployment.”

The Christian leaders also committed themselves to the promotion and sustenance of peace in Abuja.

According to the statement, the Christian leaders noted that the FCT has always been a home to all Nigerians “where residents can practice their faith without hindrance and stated that nothing should be allowed to overturn this situation.”
