Northern Governors Call Emergency Meeting Over Rising Insecurity

19 northern state governors are set to convene an emergency meeting to tackle the worsening security situation in the region. The meeting, led by Nasarawa State Governor's aide Peter Ahemba, aims to gather input from traditional rulers and enhance grassroots security intelligence.

The governors are responding to the surge in bandit attacks, mass abductions, and community clashes. Nasarawa State has already held a preparatory security meeting ahead of the regional summit to forestall possible breaches.
