Ex-Governor Proffers Solution To Insecurity

A former Governor of Kaduna State, Mukhtar Ramalan Yero has summarised Nigeria’s security challenges to the problem of leadership and poverty.

He stressed that unless the two issues are tackled squarely, peace will continue to elude the nation.

Yero was speaking at the 5th International Love and Tolerance Conference, an initiative of the Nigerian Tulip International Colleges, Kaduna and Ufuk Dialogue, Abuja.

He said Nigeria’s leadership challenges could be categorized into community leadership, family values, religious leadership and political leadership.

The former governor also said the political leadership that make up the government has its own challenges which contributes greatly to the security challenges adding that: “Some of the political aspirants want to be there by all means and it doesn’t matter how they get there, and then after they become what they want to be, then they face the challenge of trying to ensure peace and security while they have already created the problems by themselves.”
