Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has reiterated that tackling insecurity in the state remains a collective responsibility of his administration and all stakeholders.
In a statement issued by his spokesperson, Sulaiman Bala Idris, the governor made the remark on Monday while presiding over the 18th meeting of the State Executive Council held at the Government House, Gusau.
According to the statement, the council deliberated on critical issues affecting the state, including security, education, healthcare, and infrastructural development.
Dr. Lawal reminded all members of the Council of their collective obligations in his administration concerning the fight against insecurity.
“We have made significant progress and succeeded in restoring relative calm to most parts of the state. The terror of bandits has been crippled, unlike in previous years.”
He urged members of the council to remain proactive, stay connected with their constituents and elected local government officials, and consistently provide security status reports to the Commissioner for Security.
“Let us also continue to pray for the souls of our fallen heroes,” he added.
The governor further encouraged council members to maintain strong working relationships and synergy with other political appointees and elected representatives to ensure effective governance and service delivery.
