Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has called for more resources to strengthen Nigeria’s military amid ongoing killings in the North Central region.
Speaking on Politics Today on Channels Television, Sule emphasized the need for advanced technology, improved communication, and manpower to enhance military operations.
“The lengthy discussion we had with the general yesterday has shown that we must introduce more resources in the form of technology, in the form of people, and then the biggest of them all, in the form of communication, to support the military,” he said.
Sule backed Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia’s claim that the attackers are not Nigerians, citing their unique Fulfulde dialect and non-Hausa speech.
“Well, it’s not that difficult to identify them because they speak a different kind of Fulfulde,” he noted.
Sule also highlighted regional instability in neighboring countries and Nigeria’s porous borders as contributing factors to the rising insecurity.
