Governors from the South West are currently meeting in Ibadan for an emergency closed-door session convened to address escalating security concerns and other urgent regional issues.
The high-level gathering, hosted by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde at the Governor’s Office, Agodi, brings together leaders from Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti States.
Although the full agenda has not been disclosed, sources indicate that the meeting was triggered by growing security threats across the region, prompting the governors to review collective strategies, fast-track key development initiatives and strengthen cooperation under the Development Agenda for Western Nigeria (DAWN).
The governors are also expected to evaluate ongoing joint security operations, especially the activities of the Amotekun Corps, amid emerging challenges and the need for a more coordinated regional response.
