ABUJA (CONVERSEER) – The Senate is urging Nigeria’s Armed Forces to, with immediate effect, recruit at least 100,000 personnel to tackle insecurity in parts of the country.
It is also to set up an ad hoc committee to look into the funding, expenditure and outcome of the safe school programme.
These and other resolutions were adopted following a motion on the November 17 abduction of 25 students of Government Girls Comprehensive Senior Secondary School in Maga, Kebbi state.
