Governors from Nigeria’s South-West states have convened in Ibadan for an urgent, unscheduled meeting to address pressing regional issues, with a particular focus on security concerns.

The closed-door session is taking place at the Governor’s Office, Agodi, and is being hosted by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde.

All six governors from Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti states are expected to attend. While specific details remain limited, sources say the meeting was called to tackle rising security threats, accelerate infrastructural development, and reinforce regional integration under the Development Agenda for Western Nigeria (DAWN).

The governors are also set to review ongoing collaborative security efforts, including the operations of the Amotekun Corps, with the aim of strengthening its capacity in the face of emerging challenges.
