The Department of State Services (DSS) has asked governors in the North Eastern part of the country to prioritise the distribution of relief materials to strengthen security gains in the insurgency-ravaged area.
This was part of the resolution of the communiqué at the end of the quarterly conference of DSS directors across the six states in the North East geopolitical zone held at the state headquarters of the secret police in Maiduguri.
The DSS directors in the zone gathered in Maiduguri to discuss the zone’s security and the role of intelligence gathering in the fight against terrorism.
The directors led by their chairman, Abdullahi Hussani, visited Borno State governor, Babagana Zulum, at the end of the meeting and presented their communiqué of their deliberations.
Zulum who is the chairman of the North-East Governors’ Forum, thanked the directors and promised to work with his colleagues to restore peace in the troubled zone.
He also promised to follow up with the governors of Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Gombe and Bauchi to ensure the proper distribution of the relief materials to the people.
