The resolution emerged from a meeting of the Northern States Governors\u2019 Forum (NSGF) and the Northern Traditional Rulers\u2019 Council (NTRC), held at the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House in Kaduna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same communiqu\u00e9, the northern leaders unveiled a plan to mobilise <strong>\u20a6228 billion<\/strong> as a regional security fund aimed at combating banditry, kidnapping and other security threats afflicting communities across the North. Under the arrangement, each of the 19 states and its local governments will contribute \u20a61 billion monthly \u2014 to be deducted at source under a yet-to-be-finalized framework \u2014 amounting to the significant sum over a one-year period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the statement, the newly proposed fund is expected to finance coordinated security responses, intelligence-driven operations, and joint interventions to tackle the escalating violence affecting schools, communities, and vulnerable populations in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demand for a suspension of mining stems from the governors\u2019 and rulers\u2019 assessment that illegal mining networks \u2014 often unregulated artisanal operations \u2014 are financing and fueling criminal groups responsible for kidnappings, banditry, and terror campaigns. They urged the federal government \u2014 and particularly the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development \u2014 to suspend all mining operations across Northern Nigeria to allow for a full audit and revalidation of mining licences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monday\u2019s meeting was attended by all 19 northern governors, many traditional rulers, and in some cases deputies \u2014 underlining the broad consensus among political and traditional leadership. The forum also reaffirmed support for the creation of state-level policing (state police), arguing that the current centralized policing framework is inadequate to handle the security challenges in a region as vast as Northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decision comes amid a wave of abductions and attacks on schools and communities across the North. Recent weeks saw dozens of schoolchildren and other citizens kidnapped by criminal gangs in various states, prompting mass closures of schools in some areas and widespread fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the session, the governors and traditional rulers pledged unity, collective responsibility, and renewed support for military and security operations aimed at eliminating insurgent enclaves. They commended the efforts already led by the federal government to secure the release of some abducted children, and vowed to support such efforts full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analysis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decision by the Northern governors and traditional rulers reflects a sense of urgency and desperation in response to a surge in violent kidnappings, banditry, and insecurity in the region. By linking illegal mining to the funding of armed criminal networks and proposing a six-month mining suspension, the leaders are targeting what they believe is a root cause \u2014 not just the symptoms. Simultaneously, creation of a \u20a6228 billion security trust fund and backing for state policing signals a shift toward more localized, better-funded, and coordinated security responses. However, for these measures to succeed, they will require rigorous enforcement, transparency in fund management, and broad cooperation \u2014 including intelligence sharing, community engagement, and political will. Without strong oversight and accountability, there is a risk that the resources and intentions could be undermined by corruption, mismanagement or inefficiency<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-query is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow\"><ul class=\"columns-3 wp-block-post-template is-layout-grid wp-container-core-post-template-is-layout-6d3fbd8f wp-block-post-template-is-layout-grid\"><li class=\"wp-block-post post-702 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-finance tag-economy tag-markets\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:30px;padding-right:30px;padding-bottom:30px;padding-left:30px\"><h2 class=\"wp-block-post-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fqradio.com\/?p=702\" target=\"_self\" >Interview: Naira Stability May be Tested By Global Oil Crisis.<\/a><\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-excerpt\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-excerpt__excerpt\">Mr Bolaji Soneye By Uche Vera In this Interview, Mr Bolaji Soneye, the Managing Director of Flotrade, a Lagos Based Foreign Exchange Firm talks on the unification of the Naira and how it has emerged as one of the biggest drivers of the Naira performance.
