Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, on Monday, called for a coordinated regional security strategy to confront the worsening insecurity across the North Central, warning that sustained attacks on communities pose a threat to Nigeria’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.
Mutfwang, who spoke as a panellist at the 2026 North Central Security Summit in Makurdi, Benue State, said states in the region must move beyond isolated responses and adopt a united, intelligence-driven approach to tackling the security crisis.
The summit was organised by the Ministry of Defence in collaboration with the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Community Engagement, North Central.
