The original Inhabitants of Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory Abuja known as the “Gwari” people have joined the world to mark the World Indigenous People’s day.
They say the day presents an opportunity to demand inclusion from the government like their counterpart across the world.
The Gwari people say they have remained stateless despite their spread which covers states like Kaduna, Nasarawa, Kogi and Niger state.
They however called on government to prevent an escalation of violence in the FCT, as their agitations which have remained peaceful so far have continued to be ignored.
