Regarding recent efforts by northern governors to combat insecurity, Governor Radda clarified their participation in a symposium hosted by the United States Institute of Peace.

“The symposium provided us with valuable insights into addressing insecurity. Ten governors engaged in constructive dialogue with stakeholders over three days, seeking viable solutions to the pervasive security challenges faced by our region,” explained Governor Radda.
