Nigeria President Muhammadu Buhari has charged traditional rulers to take responsibility for security challenges in their communities as the closest authorities to the people. Buhari gave the charge at a meeting with the traditional rulers in the Government House, Gusau, Zamfara State during his re-election campaign in the state. While charging the traditional rulers to take the security of residents as their business, Buhari said security is not the responsibility of the police and other security agencies alone. “More security is not good news, but we must do something to secure our environment,” Buhari said. We also have the 223 Battalion, the 607 Quick Response Battalion and the 1 Brigade in Gusau.”The council of traditional rulers also endorsed President Buhari’s bid for a second term.
