During
the week governors of the 19 northern states in Nigeria said they would
continue with the repatriation of the Quranic education pupils (almajiris) to
their home states.
This was their resolution at the 4th
teleconference meeting to review the region’s covid-19 response and other
matters relating to the progress and development of the region and presided
over by the Plateau state governor, Simon Lalong, the governors agreed to
continue the exercise with strict compliance to laid down protocols.
On the evacuation of almajiris, the forum
noted that appreciable progress had been recorded in the exercise as many
states had transferred the pupils to other states without any problem.
They also commended President Muhammadu
Buhari for deploying more security personnel to the region to tackle banditry,
kidnapping, insurgency, and other crimes in the zone.
It was reported that, the House of
Representatives had asked Buhari to intervene and end the interstate movement
of almajirai immediately.

Toba Akinkuehin if
the northern governors are repatriating the almajiris, who created them in the
first instance? I am of the opinion that the southerners should reject them.
Let them face their own music.
