Senator Ali Ndume wants President Tinubu to address the planned nationwide protest over economic hardship using dialogue.
Ndume gave the advice on Monday ahead of the planned protest billed for August 1 across the country.
According to the lawmaker, talking with the organisers who are mostly youths would help in dousing the tension and avert the planned demonstrations.
His comment aligns with the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC)’s charge for President Tinubu to dialogue with the leaders of the planned demonstration.
In a statement on Monday, the labour union said Tinubu should invite the leaders of the planned protest and listen to their grievances
