Pasquier said this
yesterday February 26, while speaking at a workshop on “Addressing Rural
Insecurity and Violence in North-western Nigeria” organised by the Pastoral
Reserve, the Search for Common Ground, the Nextier SPD and the French Embassy.
The French ambassador
who was represented at the event by Ellien Helios who is the Head of
Cooperation Embassy of France in Nigeria, urged Nigerian authorities and
stakeholders to device new strategies in tackling insecurity.
He said;
“There are many factors affecting the
northwest region for years now, there are also many actors, but I don’t think
there is enough being done by the actors to have a better understanding of the
situation and try to find some appropriate solutions to the insecurity and the
subsequent sufferings.
"We’ve a
unique opportunity to work and listen to people gathering the best expertise on
these issues. So, let’s seize this
opportunity as a starting point to get humble, but to also develop a better
understanding of the issues , strategize
response, develop a coordinative approach and increase action."
