The Chairman of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Northern Nigeria, Rev.  Yakubu Pam  has  challenged the  elected  19 Governors in the region   to hit  the ground  running  in their respective  states  to bring development  down  to the door steps of the people.

Rev Pam in a statement  issued to newsmen in Jos over the weekend  said  all states in the North  were in dire need of development that  will  touch  the lives  of the people, stressing  that with  the right government policies that addresses the needs of the people, the current  crisis in some states of the North will come to an end .
He stated that each  Governor must take the issue  of security  of lives and property  as  number one  priority  to avoid a repeat of ugly incidences  of the recent past in some states where many  lives and properties were lost to  merchants of death masquerading  all over the villages and communities  in the North under different  guises.

Rev. Pam further tasked the Governors and the elected state legislators in the region to work in synergy and make pro- people laws and ensure they also execute projects that have bearings on the lives of both the urban and rural dwellers.

  The Northern zone CAN Chairman called on the elected representatives to see themselves as servants of the people and not their Bosses as has been the case..
He strongly advised the Governors to be accountable to the people and leave legacies worthy of emulation after their tenure in 2023.
In the recent concluded Governorship elections in 29 states of the Federation, 19 Governors in the Northern region were either elected newly or re-elected.
