The Governor of Plateau State, Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang yesterday said strengthening the strategic alliance between the United States and Nigeria will help to tackle the current security challenges in the country.
Mutfwang, who was a member of Nigerian Governors to the United States, spoke at a dialogue of peace and security in Nigeria, which was hosted at United States Institute of Peace in Washington.
A statement by the governor’s aide, Gyang Bere, said Mutfwang appreciated the pragmatic leadership style of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He said Tinubu has shown political will in addressing the security challenges his administration inherited.
The Governor called on citizens and security agencies to redouble their efforts in discharging their constitutional responsibility.
The dialogue with the theme: “Drivers of Insecurity and Opportunities for Stabilization”, was aimed at keeping understanding of the security context, including its socio-economic dimensions, identifying near-term opportunities for addressing instability.
Mutfwang expressed optimism that the lesson learned would contribute to addressing decades of security challenges in Nigeria and Plateau State in particular.
The Vice President of the African Centre at the US Institute of Peace, in his remarks appreciated the Nigerian governors for attending the symposium and urged them to apply lesson learned in their respective states.
Other Governors present at the dialogue included, Abba Yusuf (Kano), Uba Sani (Kaduna), Umar Namadi (Jigawa), Nasir Idris (Kebbi), Mohammed Bago (Niger), Hyacinth Alia (Benue), Dauda Lawal (Zamfara), and the Deputy Governor of Sokoto State.
