President Muhammadu Buhari will later today hold a crucial meeting with the 19 northern state governors in Abuja to find solutions to the problems facing the region.
According to Punch, the Chairman of the Northern Governors Forum and Governor of Plateau State, Simon Lalong, confirmed the meeting in Jos on Sunday during a special church service to mark the forthcoming inauguration of his second term administration.
Lalong said, “During our meeting under Northern Governors Forum, they (governors) said we should meet with Mr. President so that we will tell him the problems of the north and how we can address the challenge of insecurity, development and other matters affecting the people. That is why we have agreed to meet with him tomorrow in Abuja.”
Lalong urged the people to pray for the success of the meeting to enable the northern region move forward.
