Thursday, October 10, 2024 -Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, has warned bandits informants to change their ways or face the repercussions.
According to Daily Trust, he gave the warning during an
assessment visit to Gundumi village, Isa and Sabon Birni local government areas
of Sokoto state, on Thursday, October 10.
The Minister, who was saddened by the few
presence of people at the village, said;
“This place used to be lively with a lot of business
activities. I assure you it will bounce back. We are going to cite a military
base here.
But you must fear God. Those who have been calling and informing bandits about
the movement of security operatives and also about their brothers should desist
henceforth. You better repent or we send you back to your creator.
The fight is not for Matawalle, Federal, state and security agencies alone.
It’s for all Nigerians that wish this country well.
Therefore, journalists have a greater role to play because we know the bandits
have been flooding social media platforms with all sorts of propaganda. Our
media houses must continue to report successes recorded by our gallant military
in the fight against banditry and insurgency.
Just recently, the military dealt a big blow to the miscreants by
neutralizing a notorious bandits’ kingpin, Halidu Sububu who happened to be
their major supplier of arms and ammunition. And there were others kingpins who
were sent to early graves too”.
