Borno State Governor Babagana Umara Zulum stressed the critical importance of youth empowerment and peace-building efforts to address persistent security challenges in Northern Nigeria. Speaking at the Northern Traditional Rulers Council meeting in Maiduguri, Zulum emphasized the need for strategic investment in young people's skills and opportunities.

The governor highlighted agriculture as a key economic driver for the region, calling for enhanced protection of farmlands and modernization of agricultural practices. He warned that a lack of opportunities creates a dangerous environment for youth, potentially leading to radicalization and criminal activities.

Sultan Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar III supported Zulum's perspective, underscoring the importance of unity and dialogue in resolving regional challenges. The meeting brought together top security officials, traditional rulers, and government representatives from Northern states to discuss strategies for addressing ongoing security concerns.

Zulum reaffirmed Borno State's commitment to rebuilding and promoting peace, justice, and inclusive progress. The gathering demonstrated a unified approach to tackling the complex security issues facing Northern Nigeria.
