President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the latest killing
of tens of people by bandits in Zamfara State.
The Nigerian leader warned that “such wanton disregard for
life will be brought to an end sooner than later.”
President Buhari in a reaction to the incident said that
“this insane and persistent violence against innocent people must stop”.
He added that “these criminals should stop pushing their
luck too far by believing that the government lacks the capacity to crush
them.”
The President directed the military, security and
intelligence agencies to take immediate steps to close all existing gaps in
their operations being exploited by criminals to wreak havoc.
He expressed hope the Special Operation launched by the
military at 3:00am on Thursday from Maru Local Government area will prove
decisive in ridding the state of the “frequent and horrifying “bandit
activities.
“The violence against poor villagers who are struggling with
poverty and other severe economic challenges is not going to be tolerated by
this administration,” the President warned.
Buhari has called on the security forces to “redouble their
efforts in bringing an end to this mindless violence against innocent people.”
“Let’s not give these criminals any opportunity to succeed
by taking the war to their own camps and stop them in their tracks before they
even have the time to respond under our massive fire power.”
Buhari reassured the people of Zamfara State that, “despite
the latest set back in our efforts to protect our citizens, there will be no
compromise in our determination to defeat these enemies of humanity.”
