Northern Leaders Push for Cabinet Reshuffle and Security Overhaul

Northern leaders urge President Bola Tinubu to reshuffle his cabinet and replace service chiefs to address Nigeria's worsening insecurity and economic challenges. The Northern Ethnic National Forum (NENF) demands urgent action to tackle rising violence, banditry, and displacement in the northern region.

They criticize underperforming ministers and ineffective security leadership, calling for individuals with integrity and capability to drive reforms. The group commends Tinubu for scrapping fuel subsidies but emphasizes the need for broader reforms to combat the country's crises.

The call for a state of emergency in the security sector reflects growing concerns over the escalating security threats in the northern states.
