I need those that like talking thrash about Mallam Lamido Sanusi to comment.
As part of steps to end the Boko Haram menace, a new power bloc in the North - Coalition of Concerned Northerners - yesterday set up security and Borno dialogue committees.




The leaders also set up eight other committees to address constitutional amendments, revenue, fiscal systems and structure of the Nigeria federalism.

Those on the security committee are Governors Sule Lamido (Jigawa), Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Kashim Shettima (Borno) and Dr Junaid Mohammed. Alh. Mahmud Yayale Ahmed (Chairman); Sen. John Wash Pam; Dr. Shettima Mustapha; Prof. Ignatius Ayua; Alh. Adamu Maina Waziri; Mr. Timaus Mathias; Dr. Ladi Hamalai; and Mr. Solomon Dalung.

Others are Comrade Isa Tijjani; Chief Audu Ogbe; Mallam Mohammed Haruna; Mallam Mohammed Hayatuddeen; Sen. John Shagaya; Prof. Idris Mohammed; Alh. Lawal Batagarawa; and Mallam Yusuf Abba.

Members of the Borno Dialogue Committee are Niger State Governor Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu, Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, Governor of Borno State Kashim Shettima; Prof. Nur Alkali; Abubakar Mustapha; David Garnva and Kalli Ghazali.

The Convener of the Coalition, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, who spoke with our correspondent, said: "In the course of the discussion at our session last month, the insecurity in the country and the Boko Haram menace were discussed.

"So, we decided to set up a security committee comprising experienced bureaucrats who have been producers and consumers of intelligence.

"We want to address this insecurity in the country, especially in the North. We met with Borno leaders, we asked them to give us a full grip of the situation. We cannot understand how young men are carrying arms and ammunition about without anybody knowing them.

"They gave us a very lengthy insight. We concluded that the issue has been badly managed by the Federal Government. This fellow called Mohammed Yusuf was captured alive by the military and in good health and handed over to the police. But he was extra-judiciously killed.




"We traced directly the insecurity in Kano, Yobe, Kaduna, Bauchi, Plateau and other Northern parts to these extra-judicial killings and violation of human rights in Borno. We have set up committees to find a way out of this insecurity. We are hopeful that our leaders can restore peace through dialogue."
