Amid worsening hardship in the country, governors under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have called on the All Progressives Congress-led federal government to rise to the occasion and address the situation before it gets out of hand.<\/p>\n
The governors said the current hardship being experienced by Nigerians was occasioned by the economic and security challenges being faced by the nation.<\/p>\n
This was contained in a communique issued by the governors after their meeting on Monday in Abuja.<\/p>\n
The communique of the meeting was read by the chairman of the PDP Governors\u2019 Forum, Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State.<\/p>\n
They reiterated their call for the establishment of multi-level police.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe meeting reviewed the State of the Nation and noted the hardship being faced by Nigerians as a result of the economic and security challenges facing the nation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe forum consequently urges the federal government to as a matter of urgency embark on initiatives involving all the sub-national governments to bring a lasting solution to the crises,\u201d the Forum said.<\/p>\n
However, the Forum assured the people that the PDP governors would continue to play their part in the effort to bring security and succour to the people.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo this end, we reiterate our call for state police with appropriate safeguards to avoid any abuse or overreach by any tier of government.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Forum decried the falling value of the Naira and requested the monetary and fiscal authorities to find appropriate solutions,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n
