Insecurity: Banditry designed to destroy Nigeria — Govs

The NGF spoke on a  day Northern governors lamented the proliferation of arms, including AK-47 rifles among herdsmen and farmers in the country.

Chairman of NGF and governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, who stated this during a solidarity visit to Niger State governor, Abubakar Bello, in Minna over the abduction of students and staff of Government Science College, Kagara, by bandits, said the President and governors were worried about insecurity in the country.

He said: “At the level of the governors’ forum, we met last week and we came out with some specific ideas we have shared with the federal authorities but for us, our visit is in commiseration, solidarity and in identifying with you, the government, and the good people of Niger State.
