By Sani Idris 

The Nineteen Seventeen Northern Consensus Movement(NSNCM) for Peace, Unity, Empowerment and Development Initiative, has thrown their weight in support of renaming of Niger Delta Development Ministry to Ministry of Regional Development.

Awwal Abdullahi Aliyu (Sarkin Yakin Kanya Babba), the National President of the NSNCM, in a statement issued to newsmen on Saturday in Kaduna, said it is a welcome idea by President Bola Tinubu.

Awwal said the supervising Ministry over the Development Commissions of the Niger Delta, South East, North East and North West Zones would spur the a prudent budgeting and funds management across board.

He added that it  developmental yardsticks could be generated where specific targets could be measured and evaluated across board and cross fertilization of peculiarities that arise from other commissions with their solutions could be adaptable as solutions for others.

Awwal also said that it would exchange building capacities of specific skills or manpower between the Commissions.

According to him, tangible projects that affects human growth can be replicated in all the commissions with a view of harmonizing and bringing/bridging the country as one giant economic unit.

"Each Regional Commission will be saddled to explore, exploit and develop the naturally occuring mineral resources be it minerals from the North to crude oil in the South, aquaculture to agriculture,  livestock to forestry, among others.

"The Ministry will come up with harmonized blue prints for primary, secondary and tertiary processing hubs with a view of eventual industrialization, job security, growth and peace to the country.

"We support this new Ministry by Mr. President and we look forward to a pioneer and robust team to lay a solid foundation that will evolve with best practices with time.

"Peace and development are some of our main objectives. It is also our responsibility to avail our "Movement" to the new ministry in areas of advocacy, enlightenment and vital information dessimination,"Awwal said.

NSNCM for peace, unity, empowerment and development initiative, are an amalgamation of 596 affiliated Registered associations of Northerners from the Nineteen Northern States and associations of Northerners Resident in the Seventeen Southern States. 

Their aims and objectives are basically to harmonize and integrate the Northern region and cross fertilize all the peace, socio-political, cultural and economic values for the benefit of the regions and Nigeria by extension.
