Following the ravaging insecurity, and other forms of social vices bedeviling northern Nigeria, Bauchi state youths have mapped out strategies to find a lasting solution to the problems.
The convener of the program, Khalid Barrau, said the directives were given by the Northern Governors Forum, headed by its chairman, Simon Lalong, in its last meeting held in November, Kaduna State.
It was at a town hall meeting, which cuts across the different political platforms in Bauchi, designed to discuss critical issues of national development.
For them, youth engagement priorities and inclusiveness in governance is paramount to the development of the region.

According to the youth, the recent END SARS protest have served as an eye opener for holding government responsible, and therefore called on the government to tackle the issues of insecurity in the region.
The recommendations after deliberations will be submitted to the committee, being headed by the Emir of Zazzau Nuhu Bamalli.
The next meeting is expected to hold in Zamfara state.
