According to him, his administration is conscious of the fact that genuine peaceful coexistence can best be found in addressing diversity, and unity and satisfactorily managing the identity justice system.
The government has therefore reappraised the value of the traditional institution and found it instrumental to peace building and a major partner in the management of ungoverned spaces in the state.
Governor Fintiri therefore assured that the security situation in the state has improved, and urban crime subdued such that the people can go about their businesses with a guarantee of protection against any threat. (Channels TV)
