Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 72915, member: 636"] Nigeria's southwestern states will establish a regional security fund to combat escalating threats from kidnapping operations, bandit activity, unauthorized mining, and poorly monitored cross-border movement. Six governors convened in Ibadan to finalize arrangements for pooling resources that will enable synchronized enforcement actions, shared intelligence gathering, and quick deployment capabilities spanning Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti territories. Leaders from the Southwest Governors Forum declared that implementing state-level policing structures cannot face further postponement. They acknowledged President Bola Tinubu's intervention in areas experiencing abduction crises while requesting continued federal engagement with regional advancement priorities. [/QUOTE]
