The Mwari youths Development Association in Bauchi State have met to foster peace in the area.
This is coming barely a week to the proposed burial of one of the sons of Sayawa Legend, Baba Peter Gonto, who was injured and later died, along with two others who were killed during the 21st Memorial Anniversary of the late Baba Peter Gonto.

The youths have also sent a strong message to the government to release one of their community members who was allegedly arrested by security operatives before the proposed burial date, for peace to reign.
One of their demands is that the security agents should release one of them, whom they alleged was arrested during the incident.
The 21st Memorial Anniversary of the late Baba Peter Gonto has remained fresh in the minds of the Sayawa people.
According to them, all efforts need to be put in place by the relevant stakeholders like this one.
Some of the youths who claimed they were hired by the organisers of the event that led to the loss of lives and properties, apologised during the peace meeting, for their actions.
