The Federal Government is set to unveil a new programme, ‘Pulaku Solution’, geared towards ending the insecurity in the North-West region.
Vice President Kashim Shettima in a recent chat with journalist said military offensives alone could not sustainably resolve the security crisis in Nigeria’s Northwest.
He said, rather, it would take a mix of kinetic and non-kinetic strategies to restore calm in the troubled region.
Shettima stated that unless the federal government want to engage in an endless war of attrition, there cannot be a military solution to the crisis in the northwest hence has to be a kinetic and non-kinetic solution.
The Vice President revealed that the Tinubu administration will, in the coming weeks, unveil the ‘Pulaku Solution’, initiative to address insurgency and poverty, among other challenges confronting Nigerians, especially those living in the northern region.
“In the next couple of weeks, we will unveil the Pulaaku 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 explained.
Pulaaku also called the “Fulani code of conduct,” is an integral cultural and ethical value system specific to the Fulanis.
On the plan to address challenges confronting Nigerians, the VP 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.”
He added that “The social exclusion is also something that the President is determined to confront frontally and in the coming weeks, he is going to unveil the Pulaku solution.”
