Uba Sani, the governor of Kaduna State, said on Tuesday that some former governors in northwest Nigeria had jeopardised the region's security alliance by 'wining and dining' with bandits and terrorists. Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Sokoto, and Zamfara are the states in the region. Sani, who appeared live on Channels Television's Sunrise Daily, claimed that some governors took an 'extremely wrong' approach to managing their state’s internal affairs, leading to the current security challenges.

Kaduna Governor Sani Accuses Some Former Northwest Nigerian Governors Of Jeopardising Security By Compensating, Wining, Dining With TerroristsJigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Sokoto, and Zamfara are the states in the region.

“We had a joint committee, joint funding, working closely with all the security agencies — the army, the air force and the police.“But unfortunately, somewhere along the line, the alliance broke down when some state governors decided to start engaging the bandits and the terrorists, sitting with them, winning and dining with them, compensating them, negotiating with them.”According to him, the insecurity in the region necessitated urgent action from the governors in the region.

According to him, the northwest governors are in agreement on the need to tackle the problem and reach out to the Niger State governor, Umar Bago, “because we have a similar problem”.
