Nasarawa State House of Assembly Speaker Advocates for Peaceful Conflict Resolution in Gunduma Community

Danladi Jatau, Speaker of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, has urged the Gunduma Community in Karu Local Government Area to adopt constitutional means when addressing grievances, rather than taking matters into their own hands. This call to action was made during a visit to the community, where Jatau led other assembly members to resolve a dispute between Gunduma residents and private developer, G-Complex Nigeria Limited.

Background of the Dispute
The disagreement arose over project execution in the locality, resulting in the arrest and detention of some youths by security operatives. This development caught the attention of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, prompting their intervention.

Call for Peace and Cooperation
Jatau emphasized the importance of resolving the misunderstanding in the interest of peace. He commended Alhaji Abdulhamid Mahmud Zari, Managing Director of G-Complex Nigeria Limited, for contributing to Gunduma’s development through infrastructure and various projects. Jatau stressed that investors require the total support and cooperation of the host community to succeed.

Community Response and Assurance
Community leaders appealed to Jatau to facilitate the release of detained youths. In response, Musa Saidu Gude, representing Uke/Karshi constituency, assured the community that Jatau would intervene in securing the youths’ release. Gude also urged the community to provide maximum support and cooperation to G-Complex Nigeria Limited.

G-Complex Nigeria Limited’s Commitment
Abdulhamid Mahmud Zaril, CEO and Managing Director of G-Complex Nigeria Limited, highlighted the company’s establishment in 2012, aimed at improving the standard of living in Gunduma through various projects. Zaril commended the assembly’s intervention in the dispute.

By promoting peaceful conflict resolution, Jatau demonstrates the Nasarawa State House of Assembly’s commitment to maintaining harmony and fostering development in the region.
