The governors, Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos), Rotimi Akeredolu (Ondo) et al, gathered to address the growing issues of insecurity and other matters affecting their regions.
The governors, under the aegis of the Southern Nigeria Governors Forum (SNGF), said they condemned open grazing of animals and movement of cattle from the northern part of the country to the south and also called for a national conference to determine national questions bothering on the nature of Nigeria’s federalism and federal character in national appointments, among other issues.
According to a statement by Gov Abiodun’s Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, the meeting was an intervention mechanism to stem the worrisome tide of insecurity in the country.
“While the South West has Amotekun, Ebubeagu is the name of the security outfit of the SouthEast region to address region-specific challenges.
“The Southern Nigeria Governors Forum meeting critically evaluated the security challenges in the country, the implications for southern Nigeria and proffered an immediate and long-term solution so as to keep the regions safe and secured for the citizens,” Somorin said in the statement.

That bigot Buhari wont like this. He doesnt like when Southerners congress to undermine his failed Govt especially when it has to do with grazing. He will soon devise a way for EFCC or DSS to investigate d Governors dat took part.
ReplyDeleteExactly, you sure know this. If only the southern governors will grow the balls to challenge the caliphate and the janjaweed from the sahel, that will be the beginning bad the end of northern overrule.
DeleteThis they should have done since,this idea of fire brigade approach is sickening! Why allow things to degenerate before taking action? Kai
ReplyDeleteThough a belated action, better late than never. Good one from our Southern Governors👍👏.
