Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State has disclosed the outcome of a meeting between Northern governors and traditional rulers held in Kaduna to address security concerns.

Speaking in an interview on Sunday Politics, a programme on Channels Television monitored by DAILY POST, the governor said each of the 19 states will contribute one billion naira every month.

DAILY POST reports that the Northern States Governors’ Forum and the Northern Traditional Leaders Council convened at Sir Kashim Ibrahim House, Kaduna, amid escalating security challenges across the region.

Revealing the resolutions of the meeting, Governor Sule said: “In the meeting in Kaduna we were able to achieve at least four major things that we were not achieving in the past.

“One is that we took a decision that, instead of continuously looking forward to the federal government to come to the rescue and do one or two things, we have to take it upon ourselves to see that we continue to support this security apart from what we usually do in the state.

“We have to come collectively and do something. And that is when we took the decision that every state of the 19 states will be contributing 1 billion naira every month for the next 12 months. You know that is 19 billion every month.

“Until we are able to achieve that, we are going to introduce technology and whatever we are doing, we are going to hire our own vigilantes, get them more trained, get them equipment, get them logistics and all it takes.”
