Vice President Kashim Shettima reveals the plans of President Tinubu to tackle poverty and other challenges in the Northern region of the country. He disclosed the information on his condolence visit to the Mangal families in Kano state, Galandaci after the passing away of elder statesman, Alhaji Abubakar Imam Galadanci.
He was accompanied by Deputy Senate President, Sen. Barau Jibrin, and others. When they arrived at Kano, they visited the residence of the Emir of Bichi, Alhaji Nasiru Ado Bayero, and proceeded to the family compound of the deceased to express their condolences.
Kashim Shettima prayed that Allah console the hearts of the bereaving family and grant the deceased eternal rest. In a statement released by Shettima's Director of Information, Olusola Abiola, the Vice President disclosed Tinubu's plan while addressing the journalists.
He said, "The President is determined to define the meaning and concept of modern governance and the crisis we have in the northwest which is further accentuated by poverty. The social exclusion is also something that the President is determined to frontally confront and in the coming weeks he is going to unveil the Pulaku solution. Unless we want to engage in an endless war of attrition, there cannot be a military solution to the crisis in the northwest. There has to be a kinetic and non-kinetic solution."
"In the next couple of weeks, we will unveil the Pulaku solution which will address the grievances and social exclusion of our Fulbe cousins in the northwest and also towards addressing the root causes of all the banditry and insurgency in the nation," he concluded.
