I have polished the report into a stronger newspaper/blog-style article with a sharper headline, flow, and emphasis on the key message from Governor Inuwa Yahaya: Writing Insecurity: Northern Governors Must Move Beyond Resolutions to Decisive Action — Inuwa Yahaya “Enough of Meetings Without Results, Communiqués Without Implementation” — NSGF Chairman Warns 15th June, 2026 The Chairman of the Northern States Governors’ Forum (NSGF) and Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, has called for a new era of decisive leadership, collective responsibility and practical action to confront insecurity, poverty and underdevelopment threatening Northern Nigeria. Governor Inuwa Yahaya made the call on Monday in Dutse, Jigawa State, while delivering a goodwill message at the meeting of the Northern Traditional Rulers Council with the theme: “Peace, Unity and Development of Northern Nigeria.” The high-level gathering brought together Northern governors, traditional rulers, security chiefs and representatives of the Federal Government to deliberate on solutions to the region’s growing security and socio-economic challenges. Expressing deep concern over the worsening security situation, the NSGF Chairman described banditry, insurgency, farmer-herder conflicts and communal violence as major threats to the peace, unity and prosperity of the North. He stressed that development cannot thrive in an atmosphere of insecurity. “Without security, there can be no unity. Without security and unity, there can be no development,” Governor Inuwa Yahaya stated. The Gombe Governor attributed the persistent challenges facing the region to years of socio-economic difficulties, including poverty, unemployment, weak educational outcomes and limited opportunities for young people. He noted that millions of people in Northern Nigeria are affected by multidimensional poverty, while the region continues to account for a significant proportion of Nigeria’s out-of-school children. According to him, these challenges have created conditions that allow criminal groups and extremist elements to exploit vulnerable youths. To address the situation, Governor Inuwa Yahaya advocated far-reaching reforms, including the establishment of state police, improved investment in education, skills acquisition, agricultural development, job creation and stronger collaboration with security agencies. He warned that Northern leaders must no longer rely on repeated meetings and unimplemented resolutions while communities continue to suffer. “Enough of meetings that do not produce results. Enough of communiqués that are not implemented. Enough of promises that are not followed by action,” he declared. The NSGF Chairman also expressed condolences to the government and people of Katsina State over the killing of retired Major-General Rabe Abubakar by bandits, describing the incident as a painful reminder that insecurity affects everyone. “No one is safe until everyone is safe,” he said. Governor Inuwa Yahaya charged traditional rulers to deepen their involvement in community security, intelligence gathering and peacebuilding, describing them as indispensable partners in creating a safer society. “You are not just ceremonial figures; you are essential partners in security, unity and development,” he told the royal fathers. The host Governor, Malam Umar Namadi of Jigawa State, highlighted the multiple challenges confronting Northern Nigeria, including insecurity, poverty, unemployment, climate change, drug abuse, farmer-herder conflicts and declining social values. He acknowledged ongoing interventions by the Federal Government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, including security operations, intelligence coordination and collaboration with state governments. The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Tunji Rilwan Disu, reaffirmed the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force to strengthening public safety and tackling emerging security threats. He described the Northern Traditional Rulers Council as a strategic institution in maintaining stability and promoting cooperation between communities and government authorities. Representing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Mohammed Idris, commended the traditional institution for its role in peacebuilding and community mobilization. He said the Federal Government is addressing both immediate security concerns and the underlying causes of insecurity through interventions in agriculture, education, economic empowerment and social inclusion. The Sultan of Sokoto and Chairman of the Northern Traditional Rulers Council, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, CFR, praised the participation of Northern governors, describing it as evidence of their commitment to finding lasting solutions to the region’s challenges. The Sultan urged citizens to continue supporting leaders at all levels, noting that leadership is a trust and responsibility entrusted by God. He called for deeper reflection among leaders and citizens, stressing that solving Northern Nigeria’s problems requires collective effort, honesty and renewed commitment to peace, unity and development. By all indications, the Dutse meeting has renewed the call for Northern leaders to transform discussions into measurable actions capable of restoring security and rebuilding confidence across the region.
