Daily Trust reports that Lawan said this at the plenary after the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance by Senator Kashim Shettima (Borno) calling for the establishment of Military formations in Auno following the recent attack on the community. The Senate president said while it is important for the military to intensify their efforts in the fight against insurgency in the northeast, citizens must continue to be focused and united to deal with insecurity. Lawan said: “In a time like this, it’s extremely essential that leaders come together regardless of their political platforms or beliefs."
