Security Operatives Eliminate 18 Bandits in Katsina State

The Katsina State Government has confirmed that a joint security task force successfully eliminated 18 bandits in Dutsinma Local Government Area of the state. The incident occurred during a raid by the task force in response to attacks on local villages by the armed criminals.

According to the Commissioner for Security and Internal Affairs, Dr. Nasir Muazu, the operation, which took place on Saturday, was initiated based on credible intelligence reports. Security operatives also recovered stolen cattle, other livestock, and an AK-47 rifle alongside 11 rounds of ammunition.

Dr. Muazu further highlighted that security in some local government areas had significantly improved compared to previous months, attributing the success to coordinated efforts between security forces and community members.

In a recent statement, Governor Dikko Umar Radda commended the people of Katsina for embracing self-defense measures while clarifying that this does not mean resorting to violence. Instead, he encouraged communities to remain vigilant and support security agencies in tackling crime.

The governor also noted that recent government strategies have effectively disrupted the operations of informants aiding bandit groups. Many of these informants have been apprehended and are facing investigations.

Despite these achievements, challenges persist as the northwest region continues to grapple with sporadic bandit attacks, leaving residents on edge. However, the government remains committed to restoring peace and stability across Katsina State.
