ACF sets up committees to tackle insecurity in North
The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), has set up committees to tackle rising insecurity in the Northern part of the country.
The committees were inaugurated following a resolution reached at the ACF’s Board of Trustees (BOT) meeting on September 4, 2024.
In a statement by the ACF’s national publicity secretary, Professor Tukur Muhammad-Baba, the Unity, Peace, and Reconciliation Committee, chaired by Alhaji (Dr.) Yayale Ahmed was mandated to propose realistic strategies to foster harmony and dialogue across Northern communities.
He said the initiative stems from concerns over the worsening state of inter-group relations in the region, which had hampered peaceful coexistence and development.
He said Lt. General Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd), former Chief of Army Staff, heads the second committee which focused on security, adding that “this group is tasked with devising actionable solutions to address the region’s relentless insecurity, which has continued to devastate lives and livelihoods.
“Alhaji Mohammed D. Abubakar, a former Inspector General of Police, serves as the committee’s deputy.”
The ACF Publicity Secretary also stated that the committees were inaugurated in Abuja on September 30 and October 1, respectively, by Alhaji Bashir Dalhatu and Wazirin Dutse.
It said they were expected to submit their reports by mid-November for review by the ACF, which would later collaborate with Northern state governors and federal agencies to ensure the recommendations were implemented.
