Mamman Nuhu stressed that prevailing poverty, unemployment, and illiteracy created a susceptible environment for the extremist group\u2019s ideology to spread rapidly among communities in the Lake Chad region.<\/p>\n<p>Nuhu said that the region\u2019s majority youth population, traditionally reliant on farming and cattle rearing, had their livelihoods disrupted, making them vulnerable to Boko Haram\u2019s propaganda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince the development of the Regional Strategy for Stabilisation, Recovery, and Resilience (RS-SRR) in 2018, the strategy has acted as a regional architecture for responding to the complex security, humanitarian and development issues plaguing the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt emphasises the need for a comprehensive, multi-sectoral, and coordinated set of sub-national, national, and cross-border initiatives to achieve long-term stabilization, recovery, and resilience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a result, several initiatives and programmes have sprung up to facilitate regional cooperation, respond to humanitarian needs, and foster peace and development in the region, one of which is the Lake Chad Basin Governors\u2019 Forum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Amb. Adeoye Bankole, Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace and Security, African Union Commission, said the Lake Chad Basin Governors Forum is an essential platform for promoting sustainable regional peace and security in the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe African Union encourages further collaboration among member states and international partners to support the forum\u2019s efforts towards consolidating peace in the region and creating better opportunities for the people of the Lake Chad Basin,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Njoya Tikum, Director, UNDP Sub-Regional Hub for West and Central Africa. \u201cUNDP will continue to support the LCBC in creating a brighter future for the Lake Chad Basin\u2014a future where security is restored, communities are rebuilt, and opportunities abound.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Regional Stabilisation Facility, born out of the Lake Chad Basin Governors\u2019 Forum, has been instrumental in implementing the RS-SRR. Through collaborative efforts, we have been able to co-create practical and enduring solutions that have enabled nearly half a million internally displaced persons to return to their communities and significantly enhance their quality of life,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>NAN reports that the Lake Chad Governors Forum, themed \u201cNew Opportunities for Peace in a Shifting Security Context,\u201d aims to improve understanding of emerging <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2023\/07\/05\/river-police-nab-security-guard-for-defiling-13-year-old-girl\/\">security<\/a> trends in the region and their implications for ongoing efforts to restore state authority.<\/p>\n<p>It also seeks to explore the future of the RS-SRR, which is now in its final year of implementation, and find ways to scale up and forge partnerships to address the plight of forcibly displaced people, including refugees and internally displaced persons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World Bank has donated one\u00a0billion dollars to strengthen resilience and improve the livelihood of the people in the countries affected by the insurgency in Lake Chad.
