Katsina State Government has recorded another successful security operations against bandit activities in the state and the neighbouring communities.
The Joint security forces have intensified operations targeting Muhammad Fulani, a notorious bandit leader operating across Matazu, Musawa, Kankia Charanchi, and parts of Kano State.
In recent operations, security forces neutralized five bandits and recovered operational weapons and equipment. The recovered items include one AK47 rifle, 10 magazines, and 9 motorcycles used by the criminal gang. Notable among the eliminated bandits is Samagi, a close ally of Muhammadu Kachalla.
The operations resulted in the rescue of 32 victims comprising 10 women, 9 men, and 13 children who were being held by the bandits.
It is expedient to emphasise that the state government under Governor Malam Dikko Umaru Radda has made its position very clear not to contemplate negotiating with bandits.
The Governor has continuously emphasized that the administration is committed to eliminating banditry at all costs and bringing criminal activities to the absolute minimum.
Similarly, the operations targeting Muhammad Fulani remain ongoing. Security forces continue the manhunt across all affected areas with determination and focus.
Citizens are encouraged to provide intelligence to security agencies to support ongoing operations against criminal elements.
