On our security challenges, the stakeholders should engaged Miyati Allah and other social cultural organization to come in and negotiate with bandit’s. But money should be involved, only put forward their demands.
This call is necessary to prepare our numerical strenght to help to reposition the region in 2023. All should come together under an umbrella call ‘ Northern Nigeria Stakeholders’ The Sultan, Emirs of Kano, Zaria, plateau, Toh Tiv, Borno,Attah of Igala, Bida and Ilorin should be conveners of the meeting.

These stakeholders should be replicated in states and local government. The state governors should be accountable for monies collected every month. State stakeholders should always balance developmental projects, to avoid. concentration in the capital. Our Sanators and house of rep member should always show their constituecy projects and surpervised.
Local government the same thing.
On our security challenges, the stakeholders should engaged Miyati Allah and other social cultural organization to come in and negotiate with bandit’s. But money should be involved, only put forward their demands. All state governor’s should help to solve this problem once. The fulanis are Nigerians we know their villeges and their parents.
On religious tolerance, stakeholders should be prompt on issues that can divide us.
