WESTERN POST reports that some weeks ago, the South West governors meet in a closed door in Lagos Government House to discuss issues of interest to the western region.

At the meeting, the governors elected Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos as their Chariman and resolved to find lasting solution to food insecurity in the region.

They also came up with a regional anthem for Southwest and also agreed to promote western region integration and development.
