Northern governors have said that they prefer community policing to the Operation Amotekun model of their South West counterparts which has pitched them against federal authorities. Governor of Plateau State and chairman of the Northern Governors’ Forum Simon Lalong, made this known on Friday in Abuja while addressing journalists. I am the chairman of Northern Governors Forum who also has a different opinion from what obtains there. What we are laying down now as a framework includes the general security because we are not unmindful of what is going on in the country. That involves not only APC governors but all governors in the federation,” he said.
