Chairman of the Northern Governor's Forum (NGF), Gov. Babangida Aliyu on Monday in Kaduna said the incessant attacks by the Boko Haram sect has gone beyond the traditional pattern of their attacks.
"The situation has gone beyond the normal pattern that we gave to Boko Haram and I think we need to really appreciate the gravity of the situation," he stressed.
Aliyu decried the spate of attacks in the northern region, particularly in Borno and other north eastern states, stressing the need for the Federal Government to take measures to curtail it.
"But it appears that we are becoming a little callous that we don't seem to care much about what is happening. We must continue to encourage the federal government to really do what it is supposed to do.
He stressed the need for the region to create a position and engender the political will that would address issues affecting the region.
Governors at the meeting included those of Kaduna, Kano, Kebbi, Niger, Kwara, Benue and Zamfara, while deputy governors of Jigawa, Kogi, Gombe and Katsina represented their bosses.
