Kaduna State governor Nasir-El-Rufai
The director General of the progressive Governors forum (PGF), Dr Salihu Lukman has reiterated the need for the implementation of the Governor Nasir Ahmad el-Rufai led All progressive congress (APC) Committee on True Federalism.
Lukman in a statement argued that the implementation of the report would avert the reccurrence of the circumstances that led to the controversial quit notice issued to Fulani herdsmen by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo state.
The PGF boss charged those entrusted with the leadership of the country to rise to the occasion of the challenge posed by the quit notice to Fulani herders which has pitted a section of Nigerians across the Hausa fulani and yoruba divide.

In the wake of growing resentment against activities of some armed herdsmen across the country, Director General of the Progressive Governors’ Forum PGF, Salihu Moh. Lukman has called on the ruling All Progressives Congress APC to take steps to implement the report of the Nasir el-Rufai Committee on True Federalism.
In a statement issued Monday in Abuja titled, ‘Ethnic and Religious Hatred and the Deceitful Campaigns in Nigeria’, Lukman said the country has become so polarized that the best way out is to implement the report of the committee which was set up under Chief John Odigie-Oyegun as National Chairman of the APC.
