Former Senator representing Kaduna North Senatorial District, Comrade Shehu Sani, has said that the recent political criticism of the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, are unnecessary distractions in the fight against banditry and terrorism.
Recall that the Governor of Zamfara State and
some groups had accused Matawalle of maintaining ties with the bandits plaguing
Zamfara State.
Reacting during a press conference, Shehu Sani, a human
rights activist, said there is a significant decrease in banditry and terrorist
attacks in the North West and North Central.
Shehu Sani, who queried the critics, asked, “Why are some
people not happy because bandit leaders are being targeted and eliminated?”
He said that Matawalle and Ribadu are delivering on their
mandates and making the North safer, and questioned the whereabouts of those
accusing the security chiefs of incompetence when people were slaughtered daily
under Buhari’s 8-year regime.
He admitted that terrorism and banditry have not been
completely wiped out, but said there is serious improvement in the safety of
citizens across the North West.
“Now that the war against terrorism is turning the tides
against bandit leaders in the North West, the CDS Musa, Defence Minister of
State Matawalle, NSA Ribadu, and others should remain focused and not
distracted.”
“Any person genuinely interested in bringing an end to these
evil kidnappers and mass murderers should support the current efforts and
encourage them to do more rather than embark on frivolous criticism,” he said.
