Following the recent briefings in the past week by the security chiefs and the approval of more funding for the security agencies by the Nigerian Senate. The Senate last year, passed the North East Development Bill which is focused on restoring peace and normalcy in the insurgency disturbed areas.

The act, which has now been assented to by the President, gives the North-East Development Commission the mandate to receive and manage funds allocated by the Federal Government and international donor agencies for the resettlement, rehabilitation, integration and reconstruction of roads, houses and business premises of victims of the insurgency.
The Senate President, while interacting with IDPs at the camp, disclosed the Senate’s commitment to actively working with the Security agencies on last solutions for security in the state.

Saraki said, “Benue State, in particular, has suffered terribly as a result of these senseless and murderous activities.” It was, therefore, important to come here in solidarity with the people of the state to say “we are working for you and we stand with you”.
