The 19 governors from Nigeria’s Northern states are preparing for a high-level emergency meeting on Saturday, November 29, to tackle worsening security challenges across the region.
The gathering is expected to focus on a coordinated response to rising incidents of kidnapping, banditry, and other violent crimes affecting communities and schools.
According to announcements from officials in the region, the meeting will bring together all Northern governors, along with key security stakeholders and traditional leaders, to review current threats and agree on concrete measures to restore safety.
Participants are anticipated to discuss enhanced support for security agencies, improved intelligence-sharing, and joint strategies aimed at protecting vulnerable populations and critical infrastructure.
