He reminded the state local government chairmen of the directives he gave to them to be holding bi-monthly security meetings and send reports of such to the state for prompt action.

Earlier in his remarks, Sultan Abubakar who rated  the governor high for executing various developmental projects across the state, acknowledged the cordial working relationship between the government, legislature and the judiciary, which has engendered more development in the state; and called on them to maintain it.


He said the need to halt JUSUN's strike cannot be over-emphasized as the situation where cases pending before courts are not speedily dispensed is not good for the collective good of the society.
