“Finally, the children of today were just released by the people who abducted them. They kept them in a place and we went there and found the children there and picked them in our vehicles and brought them back, our prayer is that they continue to drop our children somewhere for us to pick them”.
“Right now, I cannot say this is exactly what the governor did because we approached him to give us details he refused. But thank God for the release because we have been praying and God is answering our prayers,” he said. “We will not relent in our efforts towards securing their release until all of them are released unhurt. Be strong, God will not disappoint us; he will give us victory.”
According to the governor, “Unless we all wake up to the situation, the war against banditry in the north west will remain a significant security challenge that has the potential to swallow the region and the country. The destruction that banditry is wreaking on the region’s people and economy is unfathomable.
“With poverty on the increase and food security seriously affected by the crisis, the state was on the verge of a catastrophic social eruption capable of destabilising our communities and the northwest subregion.” “Our ruling elite has no vision for the region beyond gaining political power. We have all seen how the elite in the Southeast and Southwest respond in unison to all matters concerning their regions’ development.
Masari made the call yesterday in a statement issued by the press secretary to the state deputy governor, Ibrahim Musa-Kalla, in Katsina. Masari said that only sincere investment in youth development and education would help the teeming youths to follow the right track.
