Catch And Kill Them – Emir Of Katsina Tells Security Agencies How To Overcome Bandits

January 31, 2022

“How can someone kill 20 to 30 person and be taken to correction centre? It will not augur well. If he comes out, he will go back to his old ways.”

The Emir of Katsina, Abdulmumini Kabir, says that the only way to end the menace of banditry bedeviling the country is by killing bandits whenever they are caught.

The monarch made the declaration in his palace while responding to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who informed him that bandits had now been officially declared as terrorists to enable security agents take more stringent measures against the hoodlums.

“I’m really troubled, so is our governor here but I am very happy now that they have been officially declared terrorists. So, you catch and kill them. That is the only solution since dialoguing with them has failed,” the emir, from President Muhammadu Buhari's home state, said.

“How can someone kill 20 to 30 person and be taken to correction centre? It will not augur well. If he comes out, he will go back to his old ways.”

In answer to their prayer, the Emir admonished people in the state to be obedient to God and have a clean mind towards each other by loving one another and being their brother’s keeper.

The Vice President was in the state on a condolence visit over the recent passing of  Dahiru Mangal’s mother, Hajiya Murja Barau.
