President Muhammadu Buhari has deemed it worthy to address the skirmish over the ownership of Obalende Muslim Prayer Ground between the Lagos State Jama’atul Muslimeen, Muslim Community and security agencies.
Buhari, consequently, has inaugurated a panel of inquiry headed Professor Ibrahim Gambari, to come up with the processes to deliver fairness to the warring parties.
At a meeting in Abuja with members of the Jama’atul Muslimeen on March 22, 2023, President Buhari who noted that justice and fairness remained his principles, said peaceful approach would be adopted to resolve the matter.
He said: I have listened to the enlightening historical details you have read. You will get justice as far as this is concerned. I commend you for adopting a peaceful approach to seeking justice, without heating up the polity. The Chief of Staff will get back to you in two weeks.”
In their presentation, the group said they had come to the President as a last resort, having explored several avenues to get justice without results.
