Shehu Sani, a former federal legislator, has warned
President Muhammadu Buhari against retiring to Daura, Katsina State after his
tenure.
The former lawmaker is worried by the spate of insecurity in
the State, which has led to the killing of over 1,192 persons and abduction of
over three thousand others, according to reports.
President Buhari has on several occasions announced his
desire to return to his farm in Daura when his eight years in office ends in
the next 16 months.
However, the spate of insecurity in the North West has
remained unabated, with kidnapping for ransom and killings happening more than
ever before.
“That bandits killed 1,192 and kidnapped over three thousand
in Kaduna last year alone, outpaced the number of people killed and abducted in
Yemen and Libya,” the former lawmaker, who represented Kaduna central
senatorial district in the ninth National Assembly, tweeted.
“If this is the State the President wants to retire and
settle, he must secure it first,” he cautioned.
Just yesterday, a report emerged from the State of suspected
bandits killing a village head, Alhaji Jafaru Rabi’u, and abducting a
yet-to-be-identified lady at Daddara Liman, Jibia Local Government Area of
Katsina State on Wednesday night.
Mallam Yunusa, a resident in the area, said the terrorists
also killed four other people at the nearby Daddara village, located within the
same Council.
According to the report, the bandits looted several
household materials as the villagers ran for safety.
