The four-point communiqué also challenged all stakeholders in the security sector to brace up to their roles and ensure the security of lives and property of Nigerians as they prepare for the 2023 general elections.
The traditional rulers reiterated the need for the overhaul of the security architecture to give a more biting effect against insurgency in the country and restore normalcy in the land.
The First Vice Chairman of the Council and Pere of Akugbene Mien, Luke Kalanama VIII, who presided over the meeting said the monarchs were concerned by the deteriorating insecurity occasioned by unending deadly attacks and treats of attack by the insurgents.
