Terrorists Seek Peace Deal With Katsina Govt
Terror leaders and their organizations are attempting to reach an agreement with the Katsina State government.
The terror leaders declared that they are willing to lay down arms and sign peace agreements.
The Special Adviser to Katsina Governor on Security Matters, Ibrahim Ahmad Katsina stated these in a chat with newsmen.
He said: “The existing courage mechanism being built by the State Government on the citizens had since started yielding positive result with the rate of banditry attacks reducing to the barest minimum.
‘’Criminal activities such as banditry, kidnapping and other related crimes will soon end in recognition of the combined effort of the citizens and the government to assist the security agencies’’.
He further recalled that the State Government has recently trained 1,100 highly educated, voluntary community vigilante corps ready to assist their communities to survive, an effort, which he said is a message to the bandits to embrace peace.
He explained the state government has inaugurated a high powered committee under the chairmanship of the Deputy Governor to take census of banditry affected victims which he said is unprecedented.
This, he said, was to ensure that the victims have not become vulnerable and avert another circle of violence after the end of banditry.
He said: “So, we are applying simple psychological measures to manage the perception of the children of the banditry affected victims. This is because; the children of those affected by banditry attacks will surely like to take revenge, so that’s why we want to suffocate them’’.
“We will provide the widows with gainful employment opportunities, skills and trades, and their children will be taken to schools. This effort is yielding positive results”.
