Kaduna State Governor, Governor Nasir El-Rufai has indicated that the failure of Nigeria’s security operatives to defeat bandits has emboldened them to initiate strong attacks.
El-Rufai made this known during his submission at the presentation of the 2020 Annual Security Report.
In his submission, he said;
Together with Niger state and our neighbours in the north-west, we put together resources to fund military operations against bandits in the Kamuku-Kuyambana forest range that straddles the region.
It is regrettable that the collaboration was not sustained or expanded into a campaign of continuous, simultaneous operations against the bandits across our vast region.
Failure to contain and defeat them in one place has emboldened them to develop a national footprint and endanger national cohesion.
The security of our communities depend on the robust projection of state power, and that can only be done with sufficient security numbers to overawe and deter criminals.
