Oyogist.com has learnt that Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai has claimed that failure of security operatives to defeat bandits have caused them to continue endangering the nation.

The Kaduna state Governor Disclosed this at the 2020 Annual Security Report presentation on Wednesday March 10.

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.”
