NewsNigeriaPDP Governors’ Forum Urges Federal Govt To Address Economic, Security Challenges

PDP Governors’ Forum has urged the Federal Government to as a matter of urgency embark on initiatives involving all the sub-national governments to bring a lasting solution to economic and security challenges facing the nation.

The plea was contained in a communiqué read by the Chairman of the Forum and Bauchi state Governor Sen. Bala Mohammed after its meeting held in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital on Monday.

The forum said the PDP Governors will continue to play their part in the effort to bring security and succor to our people.

The communiqué reads in part: “The Forum decried the falling value of the Naira and requested the monetary and fiscal authorities to find appropriate solutions.

 “We reiterate our call for State Police with appropriate safeguards to avoid any abuse or overreach by any tier of government.

“The meeting further reviewed recent developments in the People’s Democratic Party and committed to leading efforts to revamp and reposition the party to serve as an effective opposition to the ruling Party in Nigeria.

“Furthermore, the Forum passed a vote of confidence in the Iliya Damagum-led National Working Committee (NWC) of the Party and urged it to put in motion the machinery for convening meetings of the appropriate organs of the party – from Caucus to National Executive Committee (NEC) as soon as possible.”
