And the most devastating security challenge is the seemingly unending Boko Haram phenomenon, which has a destructive effect on the socio-economic lives of our people and which has inevitably displaced hundreds of thousands of people from across the North East, but most significantly in Borno State, which is the epicenter of the insurgency. We must however acknowledge the indefatigable efforts of our security forces in containing the insurgency. It is gratifying to note that they have undoubtedly decimated the power bloc and nerve centre of the insurgents in most of the sub-region, with the exception\u00a0 of\u00a0 a few belligerent\u00a0 remnants, who are confined to Sambisa forest\u00a0 \u00a0and\u00a0 northern part of\u00a0 Borno\u00a0 \u00a0State,\u00a0 \u00a0especially\u00a0 \u00a0around the Lake Chad area.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6756\" src=\"https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201126_29188-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201126_29188-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201126_29188-632x420.jpg 632w, https:\/\/newsreservoir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201126_29188.jpg 677w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">There is however absolute need for us to seriously look into how to stimulate and renew the confidence and trust of our people in the ability of our security forces to contain the palpable threats, being posed by\u00a0 the continued presence\u00a0 of the insurgents. This is to ensure that our people are adequately protected and sufficiently guaranteed to open up and go about their normal socio-economic and business activities, without fear of being attacked or kidnapped or even forcefully being recruited by the insurgents.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">3.\u200bAs we deliberate on the scourge of terrorism and terror groups within the North East, we need to fashion out ways of facilitating the prosecution of those charged with terrorism activities. At the moment, the process is a bit cumbersome as all suspects charged with terrorism and terrorist related offenses have to be transferred to Abuja for prosecution,\u00a0 as\u00a0 only\u00a0 \u00a0the Attorney-General of the Federation\u00a0 has the statutory powers to prosecute terrorists; according to the provisions of anti-terrorism law.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">So we need to obtain prosecutorial fiat from the Attorney-General to enable us prosecute those charged with terrorism in our respective States, instead of referringthem to Abuja.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">4.\u200bAnother frightfully shocking social problem which, unfortunately, is becoming widespread in our sub-region is that of rape. We must find a way of protecting our women and girls from the intolerable and aggressive demeanour of rapists. While it is essential to embark on a massive enlightenment campaign on the dangers associated with rape, there is need also to domesticate the Federal lawagainst rape, in our respective States, based on the peculiarities and special circumstances of each State.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">5. \u200bOn the issue of emergent criminal activities like banditry and kidnapping, the twin scourge is assuming a worrisome dimension in the North East, as it is becoming rampant and widespread.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">As a result, inter-state road travel is becoming a virtual impossibility for the people, because of the palpable danger of abduction along most of the major roads. It is therefore a matter of strategic imperative for us to give considerable attention to how to deal effectively with the problem and give our people a sense of sufficient and sustainable protection whenever they\u00a0 travel\u00a0 out. Unless\u00a0 we regard it as a matter of urgent\u00a0 priority,\u00a0 the\u00a0 phenomenon\u00a0 \u00a0may\u00a0 escalate, as\u00a0 it is currently happeningin\u00a0 \u00a0 some\u00a0 \u00a0States,\u00a0 where there are\u00a0 \u00a0persistent\u00a0 \u00a0reports\u00a0 of\u00a0 \u00a0innocent\u00a0 \u00a0people\u00a0 \u00a0being\u00a0 \u00a0daringly\u00a0 \u00a0kidnapped\u00a0 \u00a0even\u00a0 within the safety of\u00a0 their homes. This is already happening in States like Kano and Kaduna. I hope the Committee of Attorneys-General, which has been given a special assignment on the issue, would come up with concrete and appropriate legal framework to deal with the phenomenon.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">6.\u200bOn religious preaching, we, in Borno State, have had a terrible experience when we realised, to our chagrin, that the Boko Haram insurgency and its deadly effects, were the direct consequence of unregulated preaching. Therefore it has become absolutely necessary to curb the excesses of our religious preachers by evolving a formidable legislative framework that could guide not only the contextual standards of the preaching but also its style and form. There is also the need to come up with a profoundly stringent criteria for licensing religious preachers and a heavy penalty for any breach of the preaching code. In this regard, we may be able to nib in the bud, any inclination on the part of the preachers towards inciting their followers and listeners.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">7. \u200bAnother issue which unquestionably needs to be urgently tackled is the Almajiri phenomenon and its associated challenges which are increasingly having a telling effect on the overall socio-economic development of the society. Unless the Almajiri system is completely overhauled along the lines of its original objectives, we may end up having to deal with an army of perhaps untrainable youths who inadvertently become vulnerable to the influence of social misfits like kidnappers and bandits and even terror groups like the Boko\u00a0 \u00a0Haram\u00a0 \u00a0 insurgents. It is a problem common to all of us and it needs both multi-dimensional and individually selective approach, based on the general and specific peculiarities of the system in each State. As for us in Borno State, I have already set up a High Powered Committee to forensically and comprehensively look into the system, particularly its attendant issues of begging and unsavoury learning environment and determine\u00a0 whether\u00a0 \u00a0or\u00a0 not\u00a0 such characteristics are integral part\u00a0 \u00a0of the system or the result of a deliberate or inadvertent negligence on the partof the proprietors. On the short term, the Committee will advise Government on how to improve the learning environment, the academic standard as well as the status of the pupils, while as a long term measure,\u00a0 \u00a0the\u00a0 Committee is to look into the possibility of integrating the Sangaya system into the overall Western education system. These are some of the measures\u00a0 we\u00a0 have\u00a0 taken\u00a0 so\u00a0 far on the Almajiri system.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">So it is pertinent to table the problem for a thorough and meticulous deliberation with a view to coming up with pragmatic and impactful ways of addressing the issue or even replicating the Borno example by setting up a committee with broad terms of reference, that should cover the entire sub-region.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">8. There is also the daunting phenomenon of youth unemployment in the North East which is increasingly becoming a serious cause of concern not only to the sub region but the entire country as well. As we have discovered recently,\u00a0 the\u00a0 EndSARS\u00a0 protest\u00a0 \u00a0was\u00a0 one\u00a0 of the direct consequences of youth unemployment which unfortunately degenerated\u00a0 into\u00a0 youth restiveness, with its\u00a0 concomitant effects,\u00a0 particularly\u00a0 on\u00a0 governance. We must therefore find ways and means of creating opportunities for our youths to be gainfully employed or actively engaged in useful activities, in order to ensure that they do not constitute a menace or pose a danger to society.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Education is key to achieving these objectives and therefore we must work towards ensuring that our education system is resuscitated and reinvigorated to meet up the socio-economic needs and developmental requirements of our society.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">9. \u200bOn the economic front, we must renew our commitment to collectively harnessing the vast and diverse resources we are endowed with, in order to build a prosperous and economically sustainable society for both the present and future generations.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">10.\u200bYour Excellencies, the challenges we face collectively and individually are enormous but not insurmountable, especially if we approach the challenges in a concerted manner. On this note, I would, once again, welcome your Excellencies to this meeting of the North East Governors&#8217; Forum and wish us fruitful deliberations.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u200bThank you and God bless.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zulum at 3rd northeast governors meeting: We need preemptive steps to prevent house kidnapping reaching our states &#8230; Wants states to negotiate powers to prosecute Boko Haram &#8230; Seeks end to Almajiris on streets, youth unemployment Borno Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, who is Chairman, Northeast Governors forum, today, at the forum\u2019s third meeting ongoing [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":6757,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>We need preemptive steps to prevent house kidnapping reaching our states\u00a0 ...
