Her advice includes increasing investment in education, youth empowerment programs, and regional development initiatives that provide alternative opportunities for youths.

Many stakeholders have expressed support for her recommendations, viewing them as critical to building a more secure and united Nigeria. The Kebbi girls kidnapping continues to resonate nationwide as an urgent call to action to safeguard Nigeria’s future.
