President Muhammadu Buhari has
summoned Governor Aminu Masari of Katsina State to an urgent meeting following
attacks by bandits, which left several people dead in Dan Musa, Faskari and
Batsari Local Government Areas of the state.
This was revealed Wednesday night
by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba
Shehu, via his Twitter handle.
According to Shehu, President
Buhari and Governor Masari began the meeting at 9:30pm on Wednesday.
He tweeted, “President @MBuhari
summons Katsina State Governor, Aminu Bello Masari to an urgent meeting on the
security situation in the state.
“The Governor went into the
meeting with the President at 9:30 pm, and the discussion between them is still
ongoing at this hour (11:25pm).”
Details of the meeting are yet to
emerge as at the time of filing this report.
However, there is no information yet about the whereabouts of Magajin Garin Daura,
Alhaji Musa Umar Uba, who was abducted in President Buhari’s hometown three
weeks ago.
Recall the Federal Government has
confirmed arrest of key suspects in the abduction of the Daura district head
yet his whereabouts is still unknown.
Meanwhile, speaking at a special
Ramadan tafsir yesterday, the Emir of Daura, HRH Umar Faruk, lamented the
inability of security agencies under the Federal Government to rescue the Umar
from his abductors.
He also called for prayers for
the Magajin Garin Daura’s safe return.
