The North-East Governors’ Forum says it is considering a regional security outfit to help in tackling the security challenges in the region.
It also said that the Federal Government is not showing commitment to ending the insurgency ravaging the region.
The Chairman of the forum and Governor of Borno State, BABAGANA ZULUM, disclosed this at the opening ceremony of the 4th North-East Governors’ Forum at the Government House, Bauchi.
He said the Federal Government should seek support from neighbouring countries, especially the Republic of Chad, Cameroon and Niger, with a view to providing joint action that will lead to the end of this crisis.
On his part, Bauchi State Governor, BALA MOHAMMED, said the deteriorating security situation in the country, particularly in the North-East, showed that the leaders had failed.
