Describing the insecurity caused by the Boko Haram terrorists, bandits, and other insurgents as madness, the Governor called for the creation of jobs for the youths and the provision of an enabling environment for citizens to return to their homes and resume their normal lives.

He highlighted that his administration had resettled more than 100,000 internally displaced persons (IDP) back to their homes in the state.
